somewhere blue - project file!

hi!

apologies for the late update this month, but here's the project file for my latest single 'somewhere blue' with Yuka Nagase

vocal stems are left out for obvious reasons, but some of the vocal processing is left in the project (some of my backing vocals as well) so I hope you can get a bit of an understanding...

a few tips for how I mix songs

here's a video on how I usually approach mixing!

the gist of it is:

1. adjust the sounds that stand out on the initial listen

2. adjust the drums (if you have them in your song)

3. adjust the bass (low end)

4. adjust the other elements

ofc it's not always like this, the process ...

how I make botanical impact samples

hi!

here's a video on how I make the botanical impact sounds found on my splice sample pack or the ones on patreon. 

Usually I reuse demos of sound logos I made for clients that didn't get chosen in the end for the botanical impact samples, and so in this video I've kinda recreated the process from the initia...

more tai hirose music... (folder updated)

hi!

ive been on the ambient grind this month as Michiru Aoyama and their everyday-uploading of music has inspired me to do the same (for me it's 2 times per week uploading) (and im already kind of falling behind schedule) but that means there's more tai hirose music. 

feel free to listen/download the wav file...

more tai hirose project files... folktronica vibes

hi!

still no phritz songs (I will hope to put out a phritz project next month) but here are some more tai hirose project files (8 songs?) and if you're into ambient stuff or the iconic sora - re.sort album, these might be some interesting projects to look at. 

since I got access to the 12 Beta, some of the so...

working on a sora type piece for an hour

to end January off, here's a video of me intensively chopping audio in hopes of getting a sora type song (also playing with the new midi features in live 12)

sorry for the rough non-edited footage as I didn't have time to edit it but I hope this is somewhat interesting to watch!

random on trigger/tap ... update with more slots

here's another small update on the random on trigger device - it now has more mapping slots! (18 to be exact)

I also have a slightly update/renamed 'random on tap' device which is a device which randomizes values upon hitting the little dice button at the bottom of the device, or assigning the 'mcro' knob to a rack macr...

electronica-y glitch percussion rack!

here's the rack I used to make the glitchy percussion sounds in the previous post!

 when first using the rack in ableton, drag the .als file directly into your project file, and it should import everything from the random on trigger device to the macros intact. 

once you have it inside your project, save...

hi!

here's shoal - a max for live device inspired by Fairfield Circuitry's 'Shallow Water' guitar pedal which is a lo-fi sounding pedal achieved by a Low Pass Gate (low pass filter + envelope follower) and some pitch modulation.  2023-12-29 07:16:10 +0000 UTC View Post

tzverb - the first phritz reverb (lol)

hi!

I realized I forgot to post the reverb device on its own so here it is! you can download it from the drive link above or from the attachment below 

there's not much to say about it as I believe most of it has been covered in the last post, but lmk if you have any problems opening the device and such! (I'm...

blood in blue (phritz remix) - project file!

hi!

here's the project file (without the official vocal stems) of my recent remix!

the idea for this remix was to keep it relatively simple and danceable  (reference was 'How To Draw / Petrichor' by The 1975 if it isn't obvious enough 2023-12-07 04:34:02 +0000 UTC View Post

here are the stems for the remix I did for Age Factory that recently came out!

the sounds here are all made by me so you are welcome to use these sounds in your own production too, but please do let me know if you'd like to use 15 secs or more of the samples! (I'd say some of the glitchy bits or the drums in t...

ambient October (project file)

here are the project files to the audio pieces from the previous post!

I've added some videos I shot during the sessions in the project file so it might be interesting to check out my description in visual details.

Also I found it very fulfilling to add videos in your project file and essentially making it a sort ...

ambient October (audio)

hi,

I've been doing ambient stuff at parks (unemployed vibes) as a sort of a getaway from the usual client stuff I'd had to do recently, and here's two that I feel went pretty well for a random no-planned session.

here's the story of each song (if you're interested)

- the first piece 'ripple interpretation' ...

a few sounds from 'Tentaizu'

hi!

here's a few recordings I did for the song 'Tentaizu' (which is the ending theme for the currently-airing anime 'Stardust Telepath' (plug)) 

they're mostly raw recordings/midi orchestral stuff and no vocals (which would involve some legal issues) so I believe there wouldn't be much problems wit...

orchestral sync projects - audio

hi!

here's three pieces of music I did for a sync (which probably didn't get selected) but thought are still cool nonetheless!

In case you're wondering, most of these three pieces are just sounds from BBC symphony orchestra and the Slate + Ash libraries (Cycles, Landforms, Choreographs) so if you're interested in ...

orchestral sync projects - project files!

hi!

here's three little orchestral pieces I made for a sync thing (which probably didn't get selected for the ads) but I think is still pretty cool.

as always, these are for educational purposes only so please don't upload the full project files or the full audio bounces elsewhere without my permission!...

more wips...! from 2023

hi!

to end this month, thought I'd share some music that's been living in the shed for a while!

2023 has been me basically trying a lot of stuff as my interest for music has been all over the place (thus not being to put out original stuff...) but here's a collection of decent, or half-decent, or quarter-decent wi...

blips from another planet - Ableton Instrument Rack

hi!

here's an Ableton instrument rack that I made to try to mimic the whole sound design process of the samples posted earlier. 

It doesn't sound exactly the same as the modular setup, but the idea + flow (an instantaneous, sporadic trigger pulse alternately feeding into a standard oscillator & karplus-st...

blips from another planet (modular samples)

hi!

here are a few blipping, glitchy samples I made using my modular setup (gear list below)!

they are reminiscent of music by ross from friends, joy orbison, floating points and other artists in the same realm.  

They are long strips of audio so if you're using them in your songs I recommend cutting bi...
