I have a brand new (FREE) sample pack out today!

Okay... it's kind of two sample packs? Or at least that's how BandLab have listed it "one-shots" and "loops". Both should be in the top left when you go to the above link (or just search "Hush Child") Absolutely free with around 200 Lo-Fi/downtempo sounds.

I hope you enjoy, tag me in whatever you make!

🙌🏻 You asked, I delivered! SOFTY 🙌🏻 (Good stuff below!)

So what did you think of this softy inspired episode?
I know what you're thinking too, "Will, what gives? I normally see a link to some stems down below!?" - Hold those pitchforks, I've got something better just for the Patreon gang!

Last month I held an exclusive seminar for those wanting to get into "full-time-m...

A couple of you asked how Dokkodo Sounds makes his gorgeous textural beats, well - he should tell you himself!

Don't forget there's a free (pay what you want!) sample pack from Dokkodo Sounds here too! https://www.inneroceanrecords.com/products/dokkodo-sounds-mono-no-aware

Using Live's "Cabinet" for sound design! [FX Rack for Live 11.1.1]

Thought I'd bring you guys a fun new rack I've been using for quick breaks/fills on the fly with today's YT Short episode.

My Humble Home Setup (Short Gear Tour)

Hey gang, a few of you asked for a studio tour, I was a bit shy to this idea but after some gentle persuasion - I'll let the Patreon gang in on it! I hope it's helpful.

You can find a full run down of my gear at: https://kit.co/TheWillHatton

SUNDAY STREAMS AND BONUS EPISODES!

I'll have a bonus episode coming just for the Patreon later on but I'll also be going live on YT this Sunday at 4PM if you guys are looking for some track feedback and to get playlisted!

My Top Lo-Fi Presets

A few of you asked if I could compile some presets for Serum featuring some of the Lo-Fi sounds I've been using on the channel. I didn't think it was completely fair on those that don't have Serum, so alongside 10 presets I included a long C-note in two octaves as a .WAV to throw into your samplers too. Grab them from the lin...

Re-upload of today's livestream! Check it out if you're curious how I use my gear for live performance!

PHONK (A gift from me to you...)

Earlier this week I had a great session with a member of the community, diving into the sounds of Phonk! Considering today's Episode will be Live on YT, I thought you guys might also enjoy this Phonky-MIDI-Project. (Live 11.1.1 - Audio/MIDI Project with reference material)

I have some goodies coming for the Patreon crew this week but here's a great look at something from the Max For Live community. At £3 this one was an instant purchase!

Nokiaa's Lush Lo-Fi!

If you enjoyed today's video but are feeling like you don't want to create your own texture's. Here's the sounds I created in the video (80 BPM) - https://www.dropbox.com/s/jlmaj4p0n0jnqae/Textures%2080BPM.zip?dl=0

(Early Access!) Clickable previews like Ableton's Default Racks!

Early Access - Logic1000 (stems below)

Unfortunately today's session was corrupting upon Freeze (an M1 bug perhaps? Will revisit in future!) Tried to make up for it by including all the stems and the MIDI pattern to the chords and bass used! - Enjoy!

Twitch.TV/thewillhatton

IT HAS BEEN A MINUTE since I was last on Twitch but after some gentle persuasion from the lovely community I'm going to be making more of a conscious effort to be here more often.
No set schedule just yet but I'll try hop on at least once a week for now so you can see the process I go through for creation!

Here's an idea... (Samples and Loops)

A lot goes into making these videos! As you can imagine, I don't just create one idea at a time and I hardly ever get it right with the first project.

I thought I might start dropping some loops that never saw the light of day from the weeks sessions. If you like this kind of thing, let me know and I'll do a mix bag o...

What's your thoughts? As always, the link below will take you to a frozen session (Live 11.1) and the grouped track stems! If you're using the frozen session you may need Valhalla Reverb, RC20, ShaperBox2 & Xfer DJFilter (Free) - Sorry for the externals this time around!

Very Few Spaces Left…

If you're a part of the Discord you may have seen my post last month regarding a one-off seminar surrounding all the things that go into transitioning into music full-time (What to plan for, how to make a passive income, how to grow your audience and more) The talk will take place on Saturday March 12th at 4PM (GMT).
