I had a load of samples I used to use on the PSP back in the day with LittleGPTracker, this included a clicks and glitch set which I was using here for a nice 2001-style clicks'n'cuts track.

I tried a new way of processing vocals this week. I used the Ableton "melody to MIDI" feature, then fed that into the Ableton auto-shift plugins. Easy enough to "snap to scale" at that point. I was going for more natural tuning at first, but then it got away from me, haha. I also need to make like a little box with some spare foam panels for my mic so it has a "standard setup" in a fixed spot. I end up recording different parts at different levels, and It's a pain to mix.

I think this is also the WB premier of my Nord Drum 3P. I really like this unit. I had a lot of fun building the drum track up on the hapax this week, and I think the drum track is my favorite part.

The bass synth is the Cascadia doing its bass synth thing, as is the Iridium Core.

I tried to give this one it a more polished mix overall - and also ran it through my new outboard gear. Learned a few cool tips about plugins that help visualizer the stereo field and doing a mono check at the end to make sure the mix hasn't gotten off the rails.

This song was inspired by the (rough) quote from the show Dexter: the truth speaks from a quiet place.

› Lyrics‹ Lyrics

the rooster crowed too early

even though I was awake

the night had barely started

before the shadows they did break

the sun shined on the mountain

of effort I had to overcome

to break free of these chains and see

all that is yet to come

I climbed into my closet

put on my nicest smile

worn and stained from yesterday

felt quite out of style

fell into the dull roar

of the dreary day to day

doldrums that I've seen before

filled with endless chores, sinking in their weight

I am looking for a quiet place

it's not far from here

though I won't arrive today

I am looking for a quiet place

I just know I'll arrive, you see

when the truth starts to speak to me

as I drifted downwards

from the rumble of my race

the moon began to whisper

of a very special place

truth can speak the loudest

when you're all alone

with an ear to ground, you can't feel a sound

and anything can be known

I am looking for a quiet place

it's not too far from here

though I won't arrive today

I am looking for a quiet place

I just know I'll arrive, you see

when the truth starts to speak to me

Bought an expensive fun new toy (Cascadia) and made one of those tracks where you make all the sounds with said toy. Put together on the M8. Nice to be back after a couple of weeks off.

It's hard to find a leader who isn't in it for the money or the glory. Looking at the politicians of today makes me appreciate what a perfect King Jesus is. These lyrics draw from heavily on Philippians 2:5-11.

This is our King

He gave up his throne

Made himself nothing

The servant of all

This is our King

Perfect in all his ways

Wanting one thing

To honour his Father

God has exalted

Gave him name above all names

King of kings and Lord of lords

Every knee will bow

And every tongue confess

That Jesus Christ is Lord

Fill the heavens and the earth

With Jesus’ name

This is our King

They offered him fame

They offered him riches

And he turned them down

This is our King

He chose to die for us

He was humble

Dying to save us

God has exalted

Gave him name above all names

King of kings and Lord of lords

Every knee will bow

And every tongue confess

That Jesus Christ is Lord

Fill the heavens and the earth

With Jesus’ name

Pulled out the keyboard and laid down some layers and tidied it up in post

I'll be honest been pretty hooked on Pragmata and having a good time, but need to find more time for music

but that period of the year where everything happens before people try to hibernate for the winter
