I’m not really working on anything at the moment, too tired for recording…but this is something I made not too long ago.
I quite enjoyed that.
You make them constituent sounds or they samples?
Thanks! All of it is original composition. I do use samples in some of my music, but this one has no samples.
So there was a finger on some vibrating metal making that whining or am I overthinking this and you used an electronic keyboard?
I assume you mean the sound that appears at 1:04 and will repeat during later bars. Yes, that is via electronic keyboard and specific “soundfont” or “tone”. Everything in this song was either done with an electronic/midi keyboard or a live guitar. No samples from other songs were used.
No, I meant the whining that sounds like a guitar that starts at :03 and doesn’t stop rocking.
Guitar does come in at :03. I think maybe that’s what you’re talking about…although piano is present throughout too. I’ve not really uploaded a video to Youtube before (so I hope this works)…but I deconstructed the song so you can kinda see the different parts in my workstation. Link below.
Very chill. It’s super cool–I liked it/followed you on Soundcloud. My most recent is called “Music for Staring Out a Train Window” and has a kinda similar feel to it.
Thanks! Much appreciated. I also followed you on Youtube. That’s a cool vibe. I really like mellow, contemplative tracks like that.
Thanks! What are you using to record? Are you on PC?
Yep! I have a midi keyboard that I use for most of the melody and percussion. I have a Focusrite Scarlett that I use to plug in my guitar and/or bass guitar to record live. All tracks are recorded through the DAW I use (Mixcraft).
