I spent the last couple days messing around with programming beats. Make sure you have good speakers/headphones, you need the bass!
A song I wrote quite a while ago. I'm playing everything on it.
Lyrics:
On the platform, at the station
I've left my fears and hesitations
And like a steamboat on the Ouse
On this track I know I can't choose
But this way I can't lose
The ocean's ashes call to me
It's been months since I've seen the sea
The city whispers, seduction smiles
Forward motion, I'll miss the miles
But I won't be back a while
I'll disappear
When I have the money
To buy the silence
And the distance from here
I'll disappear
The train might leave its tracks
But I won't be coming back
The salt or smoke won't let me sleep
Foundations gone, I'm sunk in deep
I know others delay and hide
The comfort makes an easy ride
Adrift on traffic tides
Turn the bass up!
Key: Bb min. 80bpm
I was mucking around today and programmed a song in a triphop/dub kinda style. It needs vocals though!
Programmed using FL Studio, using samples and synth generators, but no pre-existing loops.
Right, let's try that one again. Here it is, with a proper mix.
Key: Eb min, 110bpm (swung)
In need of vocals!
