Week 8 - ChillBitz - Leave It All Behind

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:59:51 GMT

Hello again. To preface this week's findings, we want to put outstanding theories to rest following last week's press statement regarding the android's origins and purpose: › Statement‹ StatementThe following document is password protected. Please log in to view it. Another newly rendered song. It seems to contain traces of the past, present, and future. It doesn't seem to know where to go any longer. Has it run out of PURPOSE? Can we ignite that spark again? › Research Diary‹ Research DiarySome of the questions we ask ourselves about the android expose much of our own humanity. A question that one of our researchers asked the other week stuck with me: Why doesn't it feel the emotions it once felt? It stopped me completely in my tracks. What emotions have I not felt in a long time? Is a wide range of emotions healthy? Are memories worth keeping? If we have to leave the past behind, will we not learn from it? If we do not look into the future, are we unprepared for it? Hmm... this one seems to be called, "Leave It All Behind". Interesting. We will share more soon. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - squelette - Exercise de style

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:59:43 GMT

Almost the end of winter and I'm trying to get some puck shooting in while I can. Last week I was walking to the rink and thought my steps on packed sidewalk snow sounded nice, so I decided to record using my phone. I did the same at the rink with the intention do make some diy drums samples. The kicks are shots on the board, snares are slap shots, shaker are skate sounds, some posts shot in there too. Mangled on the m8 and added some bass, hypesynth, and a mono synth in the back. Also a few samples I had made with a piano patch that I like on my yamaha ck61 As far as the result go.. I feel like track is going nowhere.. I did it all fairly quickly and wasn't feeling super inspired. It was kind of tiring to work with the samples as they were mainly brittle sounds. So, it felt more like a school project than my regular approach, but I enjoyed the process and might revisit the samples. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:59:05 GMT

TWO MINUTES TO DEADLINE FUCK IT SHIP IT EDIT: Ok, now that I actually have some time… Really surprised I was able to pull anything together. I had, maybe, two hours total to work on this all week. First week of the last three that allowed me any time at all. A mishmash of Pulsar-23 patterns and some simple keys from a Hydrasynth preset came together within the final 30 minutes to total 60 seconds exactly. It is what it is, whatever that may be.

Week 8 - Tomatron.Jones - Bass and Synth Thing #3

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:58:36 GMT

Yet more practice on the bass and synth to simple drum kick patterns. Recorded some basic bassline to some kick pattern to some sampled drums, then some other 'ostinato' bass riffs, then some chiptunes sounding bit-crush and snyths. I was kind of inspired by the band 'Horse The Band', a hardcore band with chiptunes synth. I didn't have a lot of time but it was kinda fun. I'm sure I'll listen bak later and see so many faults, but for now I kinda like it. * Drum samples from Splice * American P-Bass recorded through Scarlet 4i4 * Transit, Valhalla plugins, Ableton Redux * Gullfoss and Ozone Elements 10 for mastering Total Time: ~3.5 hours 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - laguna - Smile for the bassman

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:58:32 GMT

I must admit : This is a low effort one. I've spent the whole week 3d printing some needed stuff for my home, yet just making "MIDI over network" tests with Linux. I even learn the bare basics of Max4Live in order to transmit CC messages to one of my worst placed synths in the studio... but not much ideas. Extra props and respect to Emily: I sampled the first 5 percussive hits (2 kicks, 2 snares and 1 kick+hihat) of her song "She's gonna be a doctor" because they were clean and handy. Hope she's fine with it :) Ironically, this songs does not have a proper bass line. I used the last 7 minutes of the deadline to resample the whole synth tracks into one and filtered the crap out of that extra track modulating the cutoff frequency by the beat. So I think the title turned to be quite misleading. I was fooling around on Saturday with Ableton's Looper and "External Instrument", so I could build chords out the monophonic and almost-boring Waldorf Rocket. I even threw the chords onto the vocoder, modulated by a quite lame TR606 beat. Of all of that, I just kept the "vocoded" 2 bar phrase, chopped it in Renoise and build a sparse beat with Emily's sample, trying to hit some minimalist funk style like Dabrye. The synth phrases are extra monotone, because they're the only ones recorded at the time and I hoped to improve them AFTER I finished the beat, but as always, I run out of time. So I tried my best not to suck too much doing party tricks with 4 bars of melody. Maybe the beat is the most interesting thing here because in order to give it some swing I ended making some convoluted choices: Emily's boom bap beat is sidechaining amplitude and cut off frequency of the previous 606 beat. The beatbox rhythm is split by frequencies, passing the low end through Ableton's extra boring Cabinets (does anybody remember those "Guitar Amps" in version 8? Where are they now?) and the high end through more filtering, modulated by the main boom bap kicks. All that to achieve something of a fading 606 Drumatix doing 16th notes here and there... maybe I created one of the silliest production techniques of the year :) I'd love to add some interesting synths instead of going around in circles with the same idea, yet this is the Weekly Challenge... hope it turns better next time. I'm a little behind my WB Playlist this week. Hope to catch up soon :) Lots of love to you, WB family. Have a great week !!! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

I half cheated here since this is a super, super, super old unfinished idea of mine and I dont even know what genre to put it under.

Last minute track, as always. I had _no_ idea what to do. Listened to old Pokémon soundtracks and noodled a bit on the Exquis in E Dorian, and suddenly some chords popped up. Most of it actually happened in the last hour or so before the deadline. Spontaneous texting and singing over an almost finished track. I hope the mix isn't too awful, but I listened to it a few times and it seems fine? › Lyrics‹ Lyrics Green is the voice Green is the sea Green is blue Green is me Green is the voice Green the sea Green is blue Green is me Green is the voice Green is the sea Blue is green And green is me Green the voice Green the sea Green is blue Is green, is me Green voice Green sea Green blue Green me Green voice Green sea Green blue Green me 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Another week, 85 seconds of music made in an hour, finishing the track 10 minutes before the deadline, no sweat (just a little).

Hey, I was on-call for work this week, which is not super conducive to make a finished track. You can hear the process of me trying here. This is another example of me using the Dirtywave M8 as mostly a Portastudio. Other sound sources are an armrest, a wooden pick box, two harmonicas (C and G), a jaw harp, a frog guiro/rasp, a cheap tourist wooden flute, and slide electric guitar. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - jegasus - Pentatonic Noodles

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:55:37 GMT

This was an improvised little noodle session. I barely had any time for music this week, and only got a chance to sit down to write something for WB 45min before the deadline! Given the circumstances, I'm not too sad with what came out, hahahahaha... I started off by playing on my little 2-octave midi controller, improvising on the fly. After a few fun little runs, I picked a section I liked, quantized everything and made a few tiny edits. I hope y'all enjoy today's very bare bones tune! Oh, I almost forgot to mention: this was all done in Reaper using a free VST called Vital. It's incredibly powerful, if you haven't checked it out, I'd strongly recommend doing so. From what I've heard, it actually can go head to head with Serum. Anyways, cheers folks! Have a great week!!! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - wangus - FARTLAB

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:55:25 GMT

fartlab all m8 synthesis, except vocals n some resampling voice samples from @Paisleyfrog on discord @DadBoy (i think theirs made it in?) @PrincentVice (i think theirs made it in?) @ MRDRCat (i think theirs made it in?) @tonematrix (i don't think theirs actually made it in) @Wisefire @0x_colt @ my gf @ me and of course @bobbyd ----- i was feeling like chemical brothers this week. big beat. some thoughts on the genre: obviously samples out the wazoo. i don't usually work with samples, and digging them up is not something in my wheelhouse. so i synthesized a break! and rendered it. in addition to lots of velocity/command variation, I got an especially more convincing sound from synthesized drums by double-tracking the snare and hat. generally mellowed, more mid-range copies of the instruments were panned differently. suggests the vibe of a multi-miked drum kit, perhaps. (like the main instruments are the individual mikes, and the copied mellowed instruments are like the overhead). I didn't end up hitting the layers of big-beat-ness that i was hoping to. something distinctive is how precise the layers are in good big-beat tracks. like you could easily have 3 breaks going at once, and they're carved out both in rhythm and mix so you just get this whole composite complex groove. but i think the drums, bass, and wood-block-ish sound together do a good job in that direction. the wood-block sound is an FM patch, crafted with the physics in mind. struck things can have a whole mix of resonances that aren't harmonically related (frequencies aren't even ratios), but many decay quickly and at distinct rates. so i think i had A+B+C+D algo, with some oscillators at some odd ratios, and all four mod slots with decay envelopes. And in the table (or maybe one of the envelopes, i forget), some very short modulations of pitch or filter cutoff or amp for an initial clicky transient. ------- ok, elephant in the room now. FARTLAB. there's some university-associated building nearby with big "ARTLAB" letters. every time i wish for an F to show up around the corner. so the seed of the track was a bit of stimming on that. i asked the discord for some samples to accompany, didn't know where they'd go yet. i was given more than i expected lmao (ty bobbyd). i had an early duplicate of the m8 project that became just for sample prep. do some eq, some distortion, some leveling, some layering, and a long-decay master limiter to get things at consistent volume for resampling. everything was sequenced into phrases so that I could easily navigate lots of oneshots in one sample file, with the m8 slice feature. the vocal solo doubling at the end was recorded at 20% lower tempo. then the normal LFO-based M8 "timestretch" technique to bring it back up. there's enough else going on in the track that you don't really notice the jitter. also some micro-edits in the phrases to fix some out-of-tune notes. the lead melody took like 5 or 6 rewrites until i got something i was happy with. unfortunately, i had a lingering GRV command that messed it up some, and i had never actually played through the whole track to notice. (so i didn't know until the render) i'll probably have some more thoughts to share later. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

movements over time . . . . went to the symphony last night with a friend. got inspired by the analog flow and structures of movements. tried to play with some organic/analog (read: non-electronic) instruments, and then experiment with different sections that combine the old with the new. also re/watched/listened to New Radicals "You Get What You Give" at some point today and that probably led to the string part inspo. got to focus on sound design, mixing, and arrangement 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - Saguaro Gigante - Aimless

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:54:45 GMT

This week's track is something of a rock synthwave hybrid. I used to listen to a lot of music like this a few years back and I've always liked this particular type of sound. It was a bit of a struggle to make music today. Actually it seems like it's been a struggle all of this year so far. I remember in 2022 when I first started Weekly Beats it was the first time that I had really started composing and recording music, so there was no real expectations. Every week was an opportunity to learn more about writing and recording and it was fun. I was just happy to get a song out. 2024 was nice because I was able to expand and learn more. I used to procrastinate on making my weekly songs sometimes because I was busy with other stuff, but now I find myself procrastinating a bit mainly because I think now I have more expectations. When I first did WB in 2022 I didn't really identify as a musician anymore. I had been playing music for most of my life but it had really taken a backseat for other things. WB was actually what helped me rediscover my passion for music again. Over the last few years I started getting more into music again and started feeling like that was becoming part of my core identity again. But now I'm starting to deal with some of the more negative emotions that come with adopting something into yourself like that. I think this year may be about learning how to navigate those feelings in a healthy way. In any case, I was happy to get this song finished today. I started out with no real ideas and somehow found little pieces until something came together. It reminds me of those early days of exploration and trying new things. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - SQF - if it weren't for the wind - W8

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:54:35 GMT

Really wanted to rally for a video today but we'll settle for a song, how about that? Another Digitakt project that I've been kicking around for a bit and it's nice consider it done! Some similar elements to my last one as one project file seems to morph into so many different directions. For a few sections I'm using a combination of sub37/gs music e7/roland s1/perfourmer all as one big choir. I'm using my new MIDI routing app https://midiffract.app/ to direct a single midi track on the Digitakt to all my outboard gear and setting independent octave shifts for each device. Video content soon on the app! Thanks again everyone for the comments, I have some catching up to do this week!! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:52:32 GMT

I really need to start working on tracks before it's Sunday. The stems exported from the Deluge were weird and their volume all over the place, which I had to quickly eyeball (or auricle?) in Audacity in the last half an hour before the deadline. And I have no idea whether sidechaining worked, I suppose it didn't. Deluge CPU limits suck. Anyway, it's kind of a nice track, enjoy! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:52:02 GMT

I decided to pare things back a bit with this one, since all my past submissions have been pretty well soaked in reverb and delay. Ended up with something that feels a bit like a cheerful jaunt through a dank cave in an old, pixel-art RPG. Added some EWI toward the end for a human-ish element. I also had fun taking the same sample of a synth line I recorded on an E-piano style patch pitched at different octaves and treated differently. And yeah, there is still some reverb and delay, but I swear I used some restraint! Keep making art, y'all! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Here is a Hyperpop-ish romp about ugh... Lyrics I like writing songs You should sing along The chorus must be strong… so how about, “Protecting Pedophiles is wrong”? I should just be focusing on chord progressions, but Cheato got me bugging about state aggression My lyrics usually aren’t about politics. ...that rhymes with, “Mr. $50K can eat a bag of dicks” I like writing songs You should sing along The chorus must be strong… so how about, “Protecting Pedophiles is wrong”? “Bring me your tired and your poor and your hungry I've got a concentration camp in Kansas City” I often write lyrics that are pretty heady But this president's precedent is downright petty I like writing songs You should sing along The chorus must be strong… so how about, “Protecting Pedophiles is wrong”? Phewweeeee.... this one had me racing the clock. Learning the Deluge - yeah, this week I got a lot of practice resampling clips to buy back some polyphony. YIKES. There might be still be a few clicks and snags in there but I gotta make the deadline! The lyrics are admittedly a bit petty, but I'm just playing President Petty's own game. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

A while back my wife had a lot of coins to take to the bank and we had to count them, so I got my recorder out to do some sound effects. This week I decided to play around with them and get some rhythms going, and the metallic ringing of some of the drops actually worked quite well to make an instrument. It kind of came together in that way I very much enjoy, where I don't worry about whether it's a 'shareable' song, and just do what I feel like doing.

🐻🐻🐻 Submitted with 16 minutes to go! Big rush job to finish this one. Sorry for the crappy mixdown and mastering! 303 performed with live knob twiddling during rendering. No time for automation! Also the 303 was just a last-minute addition to just fill out the sound. Should I have left it out? Big sound near the 1 minute mark. Played around with a couple ideas but the one that stuck was this beat that's kinda a cross between Thievery Corporation and Crystal Method. Didn't know what to do with it so went in a more cinematic direction in the last half of the track. :) Enjoy! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - MRDRCAT - Hull Breach

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:44:44 GMT

Third attempt at a Week 8 track, this one was started as I was at a local brewery waiting for a delicious Italian beef sandwich. I had the idea for the bassline and wanted to get it punched into the M8 as quickly as possible. There was also an inkling of arps. As things developed it started sound more to my ears like a space-themed track, so I leaned into "crisis at the science outpost" mode. The sounds all went through some changes as I tried to get space (ha) carved out for everything, but the sharp, meowy lead took the most fiddling. As it got weirder, I started to like the bonkers noise it added to the track. This is one of the tracks where it was sketched out in the first 2 hours, and then I more than doubled the production time listening, tweaking, listening again... Trying to use RMR's rule, something like if you can listen through 5 times without wanting to tear it apart, it's done. I probably won't want to tear it apart until tomorrow, so I'm calling it done. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - ecso - Laugh Now

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:37:39 GMT

I won't lie. I had to push myself to get something done. This is right around the time I typically burn out and I was just not feeling it this week. Work is taking up a lot more time and I'm on the road a LOT. But I'm glad I made time, even if it was like a couple hours ago and the song is little more than a simple pattern. And it's kinda long for what it is. But it is what it is. And it's uploaded. Also, I got a compression module I've wanted for a long time so I can sidechain in my rack and I'm about to make it everyone's problem. Everything will pump from now on and there's nothing you can do to stop me. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Paisleyfrog - Nasty

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:35:34 GMT

Let's do some trashy rock. I cut this one closer than usual. It all started last week when I found this tiny little amp at a thrift store. First Act is best known for the cheap combo kits found at department stores. Not exactly great pieces of kit. But, I'm always on the look out for new sounds. Also, Dave Grohl mentioned that one of his secret weapons on The Color and the Shape was a little plastic Marshall belt amp. Sure, let's try it. Didn't have a power supply, but I probably had one in my Box o' Bricks at home. Get home, my power supply that's close enough is two volts low. Oh well, it'll just underpowered it and maybe make it break up more. Let's try it. Plug in the Epi SG. IT SOUNDS AMAZING. OK, I guess we're making a track with this silly little thing. All guitar tones are miked with a condenser and only added effects are compression and reverb. Only DI instrument is the bass, and no MIDI! Since I was going to be miking an amp, I thought it would be a good opportunity to try live drums as well. I have a drum kit. It is not a good one. But that's OK, I'm not a good drummer. Logic beat matching to the rescue. Due to the trashy nature of the song thus far, I give it a working name of Trashy. The rest of the track took shape via text with my wife. I send her the first mix: Wife: "That is delightfully filthy." Me: "Needs some equally filthy lyrics. Maybe trashy is actually the title :D 'Sweet and maybe a little trashy'" Wife: "Sweet in the streets but trashy in the sheets" Me: "Ooooo" Wife: "I kinda wanna sing that" So here we are. I wrote up the words later that day and threw down a placeholder that night. She made some edits and sang it at 3pm on a Sunday after a weekend away. We both decided that "trashy" is a bit demeaning, so "filthy" and "Nasty" it is :) Done...oh wait, it's 5:10 and I have to make cover art! › Lyrics‹ Lyrics My woman So sweet Frills and lace From her head to her feet But later At home Know what I want When I get her alone Sweet in the streets But filthy in the sheets Nasty So nasty She’s smilin' I’m knowing With how she looks There’s a lot she isn’t showin She’s wanting I’m needing Wont’ be long Till I start with the pleadin' Sweet in the streets But filthy in the sheets Nasty So nasty Nasty So nasty 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - miraclemiles - time out of mind your time

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:34:05 GMT

Another week of thinking about making some music, then not getting around to it until the weekend. Thinking about it is good though. Thinking about any creative pursuit is positive and inspiring. It beats doom-scrolling, as we probably all know. Nice to look forward to a new adventure in creating something each week. A little ironic that when I finally sit down to make music on Saturday that instead of working on one of the ideas I thought about all week, I see a random sticky note and follow that to make whatever comes to me in the moment. All the thinking probably helps open the creative mind to capture whatever new ideas show up. The sticky note on my desk said: Bauhaus Dub She's in Parties.That seemed like a fun place to start, so that's where I started. Part of me wanted to make a remix / edit of that song, to maybe use in a DJ set or something, but not for a WB song. So I pulled a few samples, chopped and edited to be something different. Mostly used bass sound, then just had fun adding and adding, mostly Ableton sounds playing on the Push, sampling some more ... then adding more, and more. Too much? Hard to stop adding more and flip into editor mode. The process was a good reminder that I'm a maximalist and I like the creation phase. I like the edit phase too, but with all the sound I end up creating, it can be hard to edit down. I find it's best when I can let something sit for a week or two and come back and edit. That's hard to do with WB. I may try to do the rotating weeks again. Create the piles of sound one week, then edit it after it's settled for a while. I enjoyed making this and listening to it (at least today). So that's good. We'll see how it sounds tomorrow. I look forward to maybe doing another edit after a few days or weeks. Always great hearing everyone's music here. Provides a lot if inspiration. So, thanks for that! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 8 - LeBernd - Busy Week

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:33:58 GMT

Probably not gonna be the last one this year. Started the week with no plans and barely any time. Friends came to stay for a few days, so I took a recording I made of myself practicing breakbeats and a guitar riff and chopped it up a little while everyone else was already asleep. Sadly I didn't get anything exciting done with the initial idea, and I'm again very sparse on the transistions and ear candy - but it's something, and there's something new in here: first bit of live drum recording I did for Weeklybeats! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - evanericksonmusic - Mo’ Money Throwdown

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:31:59 GMT

I’ve become really set on my next album being a culmination of samples entirely sourced from my friends. My weird chronic issues really flare when I talk with people, so I can go a long time without socializing. This idea of stealing my friend’s voices to make music with has been cathartic for me. In its own weird way, it feels like I’m still getting to hang out with each of them as I write. When I first got to college, I was in an Intro to Music Industry class. We all had to assign nicknames to ourselves. Mo’ Money was the name of the guy who provided me this rap sample after I asked him for some stuff. We don’t have a deep history, but we each respect each other a lot. Anyways, I made this ass shaker out of Mo’ Money’s voice. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - dewdrops _tunes - Desert Village

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:29:35 GMT

I spent the first half of the week working on a completely different track. I was trying to remix audio effects and drums/bass from a video game called Deadlock. I realized after a lot of frustrating hours, I have no idea how to remix something. I ended up then deciding to focus on doing something I could play with ear candy and finally use some of these recordings of my cats in. Unfortunately, I ran out of time but this is somewhat complete enough for me to ship it off to the weekly beats gods. As an aside, I'm fairly certain myself and likely my husband are about as sick of these congas as a human could possibly be. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - mzunguko - TOASTY

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:26:27 GMT

Bit of travel this week, and got a late start. I had a couple 8 bar loops I made in the summer to accompany a splice flute/piano loop looking for a track so I made a home for them here. These were some of my first guitar licks, . I added the TR1000 as I love that machine. Some U-he synth patches, a little Virus, and a nice wash of guitar. Very fast arrangement as I was short on time and very quick mix, this is basically all resampled into the Digitakt and Octatrack, sequenced and arranged then brought back into the Daw for printing. I wish I had more time to dial in the mix from this workflow but that's a fix it as I go process for sure. Can't say I am in love with the final mix, rushed it in. Thanks again for all your support, keeping at the guitar even through the weeks I am not totally happy with the progress. In Lak'ech _mzunguko 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Daisy - Wistful for Spring

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:23:38 GMT

Last week, here in Wisconsin we had a wonderful 60 degree day. The wind was delicious and made me think that this is spring!!! -- early. But we are back to winter with the snow and ice and the cutting east wind off Lake Michigan. That east wind can sometimes feel like an iceberg hitting your chest! However, that day was a wonderful break and I'm ready to finish winter--I think. I used Violin, Viola, Cello, String bass,flute, and oboe. I wanted some wind instruments-- because of the wind here near the lake. I also tried out the col legno effect with the strings on Musescore. Something new! Col legno is where the player uses the wood of the bow instead of the hair. It does sound like col legno! I have played col legno bowing countless times in my playing career, and this is a pretty good example for Midi. I have a bow I use just for col legno, because it is kind of bad for the bow stick! Yearning for spring, is a characteristic of us Cheesehead folk. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - xavier marques - Eclusa

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 23:23:36 GMT

"Eclusas" - Canal lock Hi! This week I got to go visit the canal lock and got the chance to record the floodgate. It's a massive metal structure that screeches while its opening and closing. I got some crazy sounds out of it but they all tended to be rather low in frequency so I struggled to get something that wasn't very muddy. I only used sounds captured that day and a couple of sounds from last week's session for the risers on the transitions. I felt the need to process the sounds a bit more than usual so there's some granular and wavetable magic going on to get those leads, pads and arpeggios happening. At the end of the song you can hear the unprocessed sound of the floodgate. Anyways, it was good fun capturing these and feeling the structure vibrating while screeching added an extra dimension to the sound. Thanks for listening! P.S. it sounds massive if you have a sub as there's a big bump around 45Hz.

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 22:55:51 GMT

Hi there - welcome to week 8. I'm glad you're here! This week I made a cheesy chiptune track. › Production notes‹ Production notes I've been avoiding square waves in my music production. It's a comfort thing. I like how my saw pads and plucks sound, so I stick with them, afraid of the unknown. At the same time, I've been super inspired by all the awesome chiptune artists on here (shout out to laamaa, Disposable Planet, Vivi and Apticx!) :). To push myself out of my comfort zone, I decided to try to make an M8 chiptune track with the following constraints: - only 4 tracks - square waves and chippy noise from wavsynth - no effects, no filters, no fancy modulation; just dry signal everything My biggest discovery this week was that reducing the complexity of the track gave me more time and space to use melody, rhythm, and note velocity in to create movement. Although this was written and recorded on the m8, it would be fairly straightforward to port to LSDJ. That's going to be an exercise for future me because I'm out of time this week :) Thanks for listening! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - NickLong - Five to Nine

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 22:50:24 GMT

A Drum and Bass track made for an Elektronauts challenge to make a Drum and Bass track in a non 4/4 time signature. I’ve realised that I’m more motivated with music if I try and include something I haven’t done before or rarely do in a track so given that I’ve done a 5/4 DnB track before I thought I would try and do a track which changes time signatures as i’ve never done that before and indeed didn’t even know how to do that in Bitwig. The main part of my track is in 5/4 and then the turnaround is in 9/8 which I think gives it a bit of a prog / fusion feel. I then went into 4/4 to release the tension a bit before going back to the 5/4 section. The track was made in Bitwig. The Amen was chopped using Amigo which is an amazing plugin for £10 and gives the track a really nice crunchy low bitrate sound. Highly recomended. The things I’m proudest about are: The fact that from the intro you might think that it was going to be an ambient thing and the break comes as a surprise, but then it sounds quite natural when it comes in. I’m also really happy with transitioning from a pure sine sub (Sublab) to fading in a reese bass. I think that sounds really menacing. The initial riff is Arturia Pure Lofi which is a fun plugin I hadn’t tried before The other synths are Dune 3 and Proxima. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - royb0t - acidslippers (021626_126bpm)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 22:49:26 GMT

one of those weekly tracks to just push through. i was doing some deeper explorations with reaktor but it didn't feel really coherent. dropped in abl2 and found the luke vibert "i love acid" sequence and chopped it up. another maschine kit, some more rides on machine sounds. it's fine. not enough time to find weirdo vocal samples to glue it all together, get even more granular to chop out snippets here and there, so it's a bit maximal mess. probably basskicks are too thumpy, but ah well. fun learning. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Ashtom - Somber Quietude

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 22:43:20 GMT

I felt that the track from last week was crowded and wanted to go back to something less busy, more calm. I started with a drone from the Stylophone CPM-DS2 using the dual LFO to still create movement but trying to not become too overwhelming. I played with the pots here and there, because I didn't want it to be boring either. Then, I added the MS-20 mini on the 2nd track of the Portastudio, also looking for simple but lively sounds. The hold time and release time where at the max to keep the note playing, and then I played with the high-pass and low-pass filters, modifying the LFO speed and intensity from time to time. Finally, I picked up the Texture Lab again. But this time, I played a smoother sound, although with a bit of transient to convey an organic feel to the sound. It resembles the patch I used last week because it journey in the high register, but there is less chaos in the way the sound evolves. I mixed down the whole 3 tracks (not 4 this week, just 3) on the Zoom L-12, applying the embedded plate reverb to widen the soundscape. I didn't manage my time properly this Sunday and I tried to record some video snippets while building the track, which didn't help. At first, I thought I was rushing it by hastily putting random elements together, but then when I was mixing down and mostly when I was mastering, I realized that it's not that bad in the end. I hope it's not my personal bias, but it feels that the elements go well together. I have been thinking about those 3 elements the whole week but rushing the execution at the last minute felt like I was spoiling the track. I really appreciate any feedback, criticism or just sharing how this makes you feel. I wish you a great week! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I imagined this as something that could be made into a theme for a video game. Here's a slightly improved version to solve for some sloppiness when rushing to meet deadline: Soundcloud it was even tougher than i thought doing this while traveling for business. i was able to create a seed of something i liked on the m8 while on the plane home (deleted two attempts i made traveling there) but ultimately no time to realize its potential. i hope some of you see/hear what i did.

I was really looking for something this week and I had so many different things going on but Saturday morning when I was headed to the ham radio breakfast, a moth was in my car and this is a recount of that experience. The breakfast is at 6 AM and a local restaurant that's 10 minutes away from me so I was really concerned about it finding them off in my car because it was 28° outside.

Week 8 - sugar.export - You're enough, so dance love

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 22:22:42 GMT

This week I jammed this house song out live on my maschine, cueing in tracks by muting and switching patterns. I just love how the sidechaining turned out and the filter and distortion with bass later on that I start tweaking with. It feels very carefree and light which I am stoked about after doing some dark production stuff. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I happened to be digging into salsa this week, wanting to get to know the mechanics behind the rhythms in my roots while I practice on the M8. Then I found out Willie Colon passed away, someone whose music has always been in the background of my life. Decided to try and sample some trumpets from one of his classics. It won't do his genius any justice, but at least a little tribute. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 22:17:13 GMT

meant to track in logic this week but time got away from me. there's a dodgy E natural in the Bass VI line somewhere but I'll let it go. Tried having way more vocal layers this time - there are 8 or so main parts in the chorus plus the harmony. definitely sounds richer so going to try this moving forward. Open C. Liberal amount of Dream 65, Golden Reverberator and Gen Loss. No distortion for once. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

This week again was incredibly busy, but at least I managed to spend some more time on a track and actually do a pass of kinda-mixing run. I dunno if it's my exposure to odd/compound meters or I'm getting better at making them sound smooth, but I'm surprised how "non-odd meter" this one sounds. Or maybe that's a charm of x/16 meters (this one is 13/16) 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Looking for something with some kick drum movement to it. Had a few too many ideas with the synth line and didn't quite gel. But there's something with this kick drum patch that I quite like.

I wanted to get back to making stuff with guitars layered around the place. This tune has 8 string, 6 string (playing both power chords and melody on higher strings, the very "28 Days Later" sounding notes) but the guitars are also playing different parts from the main chords which is a nice way to get them all to work together like the other sounds. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Pescadito - Jung's Advice for Later Life

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:57:43 GMT

I had a lot of fun making this! I tried a different approach this time, kinda low effort on the recording side: I have just used my iPhone or my MacBook microphones to record different elements. It all started from a drum beat I played on live drums (just for fun) and recorded with only my phone to check the practice. Out of convenience (and curiosity of the outcome) I placed my phone right on the floor tom pointing at the snare. That's what makes the kick boom... I then tried to make the drums sound bigger by separating the elements with EQ and different effects. I then tried to make the whole thing without even connecting my interface. I played all the parts on the laptop keyboard and recorded the shaker and the clap with the Mac internal mic. Synth bass, strings, organ, electric piano. As I was enjoying the groove, I remembered of a video I watched of Carl Jung being interviewed in 1959. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AMu-G51yTY So I thought it would be cool to make a piece with some of his reflections. I tried to make a quick mastering but it was late, so I think I screwed it up a bit and you can hear some clipping here and there... sorry for that! Enjoy it!

Week 8 - horatiuromantic - Kibbitzers

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:57:31 GMT

You are gonna like this one! It's me struggling to play the ELECTRIC GUITAR! Please let me know your impressions, I always enjoy reading your fun comments! As you can see my chops are very barebones, but I make up for it with pure DUENDE in a one-take** performance of this new funky one-chord song! The chord is none other than E7+9 also known as the EHendrix or E major minor. I also do the one-take on the piano where I do the bassline, this time using the UAD Spark Electra 88. The drums are half by hand and half Levi from Logic, but most of the time he is relegated to play the high hat and the ghost notes of the snare, as I recorded on the midi keyboard the kick (1 every beat), and main snare which is kinda like the main guitar/bass groove. Plus hand-made a lot of the fills, to taste. I composed the riff the past couple of days by jamming, and recorded only from ~4pm today until 12am, with 2 more hours doing the video. Very good result, considering what a struggle it was to get a decent guitar take! **Actually there is a small part of the middle solo where I switch to a previous guitar take, because it was too good using the frikkin nail clipper as a slide. Well, you'll see. I had a great time this week visiting my hometown, for my grandma's 80th birthday! I was also hoping to play a lot more electric guitar with my dad but I think he was a bit too busy lately and didn't practice, and he was a bit shy about it, so we ended up playing only twice. Also, he suddenly decided with my uncle to take a vacation to south-east Asia and they left earlier today, so that was a pretty wild turn of events! Family, eh? I was not very inspired this week to make music but eventually I settled on this idea of the KIBITZER which is a person who likes to complain and give advice and tell you that what you're doing is wrong, even though they don't necessarily know any better or provide any constructive ideas. I think it's quite relatable and I think once again I'll put this song in the regular repertoire with the band once we get around to it ... It's super fun to play it!!! I hope you enjoy it as much as I had fun making it! › Lyrics‹ Lyrics Why are you doing the thing that you're doing? I think you're doing it [slow]. Well how should I do it? You know any better? ...

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:53:42 GMT

This week I was really weary, I had a lot of other commitments (including church band!) and my energy was really low, so I couldn't spend much time on this. I started out by building the main pad sound you can hear at the start (using a method I saw on YouTube) and my thought was to make some old school liquid drum and bass - PS2 stylee. Well... It ended up becoming some ethereal trance! This is the type of music I started out trying to make 25 years ago - I was really into trance music back then. I mean, it was really big in 1999-early 2000s. So I've come full circle now. Where to next? :] Enjoy! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - roboctopus - Interlude for the Underground

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:53:31 GMT

I am sick guys. Got the flu vaccine; still got the flu. :/ WB is tough. I get that it's a personal challenge but I'm never quite sure how to define the rules for myself. This week I worked a lot on a gameboy version of the Evangelion theme (A Cruel Angel's Thesis) and a 20 minute set of gameboy chiptune/vaporwave type stuff. I don't feel like a cover would count and the chipwave stuff is mostly me trying to link existing material into a seamless live set, so I'm not going to count that either. That leaves me with various random noodles I worked on this week. This is basically me trying out some sort of not-very-roboctopus style LSDJ. I wanted to do a sort of groovy low-key bass workout. I think it has some cool bits in it, but I'm frankly not sure what to do with it haha, since it's sort of outside my usual way of working. It seemed to want to sit on the groove and I usually work toward some sort of climax or something. I dunno. Maybe I'll revisit this. I guess it could kind of work as background music in a game though. A loop for some underground ruins exploration. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 8 - Judgement Act - mahou shoujo, shining heart! [JP ver.] (feat. Hatsune Miku, Motivational Weekly Beats Guy, Judgement Act, Scottux)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:52:20 GMT

A japanese version of levelcapybara's mahou shoujo, shining heart! Capy reached out to me to do some english Miku vocals on their track this week, which I couldn't turn down! I'm not massively big on her english voicebank (looking forward to the new one which is hopefully better) but it came together nicely - I think due to the banger vocal melody and backing track capy created. This version born from wanting a break from dealing with english Miku's inability to say "knights" the way I wanted it for like 30 mins :D To fit the song into japanese, I had to rewrite most of the lyrics, so a fair amount of the original intent is lost, unfortunately, but so things go.

This time we are working with samples from the fourth 20 minutes of Night of the Living Dead. This is the part of the movie where all their plans start to fall apart. The track ended up more meditative than anything else, picking up a saxophone sample (one of the few (only one?) I've heard so far) and building around the uniqueness of that sound. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:45:00 GMT

Damn I missed last week, I dont feel too good about that, but I can't give up. I was working on a silly game project in which you jump to music, somewhat similar to necrodancer minus the frustration/challange of that game. I had this idea of making it about centered all around electronic music culture from drum programming to funktion one's and everything in between, and getting player "in trance". I most likely won't finish the project but I just felt the urge to make a loop for fun then I started working on dynamic music where different layers depending on what's happening during that movement. I experimented a bit with adding distortion when player is missing a lot of beats. Then I cameback to that loop, and started expanding to different patterns and it turned out to be a small beat with lots of distortion and nasty 808.

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:38:52 GMT

Part 3 in the sorta-retro-deep-house-dub-techno-space-cruising-one-night-stand story. Again on the M8, and again missing the dub-techno-ambient mark with a lot of this but I'm not mad at it, retro deep house is great. More vocal fuckery this time, and some slightly more interesting dub-techno chords again using long samples of evolving wavetables. Drums and percussion pretty standard. Pretty sure most of these songs are a little too long but that's what revisiting and radio edits are for. On other notes - on March 4th at 8pm MST, Cabin Radio in Yellowknife will broadcasting a space-music special, and some of my music from The Pulsar Suite and other albums will be featured! You can listen online at Cabin Radio here.. Obviously I'll hype this again before the date but everything got scheduled this week. Every week is hell right now. It's just not calming down. Starting to feel cursed. Nonetheless we journey on. Next week will either be part 4, or possibly an ambient track - I want the Snow for Europa EP to be ready for the radio broadcast, and at least one of my planned tracks are gonna be scrapped, so I might need to write something new. <3 <3 <3 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - DenaWoods - this meeting could have been an email

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:32:15 GMT

I made this after an end-of-week meeting. I honestly didn't think I was going to have anything to submit this week. Didn't have a lot of time to create anything much less handle it with care. Yesterday, though I was attempting to be playful, I found myself unhappy that I might not have something that felt "good enough" to even try and finish. Part of me was like, "It's okay to take breaks, you can take a week off"...which is 100% true. We can all take a break whenever needed. And then another part of me was like, "It's also okay to release perfectionism, and simply submit something to just be in the process." Took a break from it last night (also, what I'm learning is wise), then today added the whisper ad libs and was cracking up while mixing. This song is so ridiculous but I am really glad I stuck with the process. My hope for us all is that we get outside, touch more grass, shake more ass. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - GregVK - Quantum Sand

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:29:02 GMT

Haha so I played a gig 3 hours away from home tonight. With the intention of finishing my submission and then using USB mode to transfer from my M8 to my cellphone. Probably should have tested that functionality before leaving. It didn't work... Haha so then I thought I'd just take the SD card out and plug it into my phone. But of course, I didn't have a pin to get the SD card reader out my phone. 🤣 So I found a tooth pick, and shaved it down with a bottle cap until it was thin enough to press in and release the SD card slot's catch. Managed to mess up my render twice, so I had to repeat the process 3 times to get the song on my phone. And then download a WAV to MP3 converter. Anyway... I got the song up! --- I've never made ambient music, and wanted to give it a try. So this song is different from anything I've ever made. It started with a drone I made on my Analog Four when I still had it. Then lots of extra synths from the M8 and a few samples. My favourite part is a recording of my wife whistling, calling her mom's dogs. It happened to fit perfectly, in a really cool, eerie way. Haha, props to people who make ambient music! It's tough! Anyway! I like what I made. Hope some of you awesome people do to! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - DataJanitor - Don't Bees Till?

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:24:41 GMT

OK, so... I started up my DAW this week, and used a plugin I hadn't used before -- spent 45 minutes or so watching tutorials and getting the hang of what I was about to get into -- selected a patch, set a tempo and scale, and ... my DAW completely crashed. - So then, I started it back up and said "Screw it" and just loaded a bunch of VSTs and selected random patches and told myself ... I will make something with these. This is this week's entry, "Don't Bees Till?" - In the mean time, last week - I spent more time on my WeeklyBeats track than I have on ANY other one for WB in my whole life... and even got my wife to sing on it. We were down to the wire, she recorded the vocals with 10 minutes left... I rendered it, and then played it as I prepared to upload it, and realized I had left the melody reference track "on" when I rendered, so it sounded awful -- By the time I fixed that and rendered it out, the UPLOAD button disappeared. I had missed the submission deadline. Curses!

I went to an Airbourne concert, so that might've subconsciously influenced me. Before I knew it I had 45 seconds, but it was all intro, haha. Gave me "the level right before the final boss" vibes, so I ran with that. :) Not much too add, really.

After two months of non-stop travel for both good and ill, I finally got this weekend at home — and promptly got sick ;-) That’s okay. Plenty of time to sit in bed with some tea and an MC-707! I had started rearranging my rack before I came down with whatever I’ve got, so it’s still all over the floor. And I’m really not in the mood to faff with outboard stuff anyway. So I thought I’d just record some stems and mix in Logic. But something’s weird with the 707 drivers in Sequoia… the timing of something is just a little off? But hey, that gives it groove. Thanks for the well-wishes from last week. Even sick, it feels so good to be back home again. And no plans to leave again for months and months! Heaven. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

I have been asking myself many interesting questions like: "do I want to try to make music that's not driven by a rhythm?""what even is a drum?""how plucky can I make an envelope before it's percussion?""why am I trying to cheat at my own challenge?" In the end (as always) my energy and mood didn't quite allow me put as much work into the track as I would like. I think there are too many elements and not enough structure, but it was kinda theraputic to make so we take that. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 8 - qp - Tunnel crabs

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 21:01:39 GMT

This week I messed around some more with tempo and ended up sampling a bass at different bpms to get a lot of varying sounds. They are scattered everywhere on this track. Got steered towards something dark and anxiety inducing. Tried some different song structures and due to time running out ended up with this. I'm far from a lyricist. I usually have a hard time just naming my tracks. For some reason this was named "Tunnel crabs" very early on and I think it subconsciously influenced the sound a bit. Oh, and apparently they are a thing: Tunneling crabs, such as Atlantic ghost crabs and mud crabs, create intricate underground burrow systems for protection against predators, extreme temperatures, and for molting. These crustaceans dig deep, branching tunnels in sandy beaches or mudflats, often surfacing at night, and rely on moist substrate to keep their gills hydrated. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Just a quick something to stay musical this week, recorded in voice memos. Was supposed to be "opportunity won't answer till you're knocking down its door", but I'm too lazy to do another take.

Just a mid paced, lighter raising, middle of the album kind of Black Metal tune, there was always a lot of the not super fast, or super aggressive stuff out of Finland and similar places, just kind of going for a more epic sad slow kind of tune. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 20:53:23 GMT

Started this one early in the week while preset surfing on the AstroLab, but as usual ended up being a photo finish on Sunday. Went with a really simple progression/structure and chased the production and builds instead. Baritone and bass and wurli oh my. About eleventy billion vocal melodies running through my head for this one. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - cmcavoy - Wrapped

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 20:45:51 GMT

My plan when I started this yearslong project was to stick to a style for 8 submissions at a time. So, this is the final submission in my "lofi beats" phase. I'm sure I'll be back to the format because it's pretty much my favorite, but for now...the first 8 are wrapped. I'll be putting these up on Bandcamp as BEETGARDEN01 later this week. Will post a link in the week 9 submission. So, "Wrapped". I made a whole different song yesterday morning. It took me a while and I ended up putting a zillion effects on everything, which ended up as an absolute mess. I just didn't hear it when it was happening. I spun up a blank Live session to clear my mind a bit and ended up with "Wrapped", which is simple, short and I ended up liking quite a bit. Not much to say about it other than that. Process wise, I let Live handle the scale and I mashed some keys, then added some shaker samples and a hand crafted beat (by which I mean I took drum hit samples and arranged them by hand on the timeline rather than using a drum rack). I ran it through the mastering chain I've been using for the first 8 weeks and it sounded good so I kept it. The song that didn't make the cut will be in the "bonus" section of BEETGARDEN01. Seriously, it's a muddy mess. Total bummer. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - that_ranjit - Thad

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 20:34:00 GMT

Been rolling thru some stuff. Lots on my plate. I haven't been finding the time to make music lately, but some inspiration cradled me last night. Been hanging out with someone, and she said her brother (Thad) makes some music. I asked to hear and she sent a few of his projects. I really liked them. There was this one chiptune track, just some nice rhythmic chords and a catchy melody. It made me happy just listening to it, and brought me back to when I was getting seriously into LSDJ. I wanted to just run with it and see what I could do with that starting point. The chiptune melody at the beginning is all Thad's. I had fun crafting some beats with it and messing with the sample. It felt good to sit down for a while and make music again. There's a lot more I could do with it, but I figured this could exist as my contribution to WB for the week. I'm not putting too much pressure on myself to participate in every submission this year. Right now there are many other things in my life that are taking priority. And I'll get to music when I can. <3 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Apticx - Orange Skies (week8)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 20:28:18 GMT

This week i tried to branch out of the typical way i write on the m8 and try to make it sound a bit more hand played and organic feeling by using lots of irregular tiny delays between notes and a multisampled piano. Modern Minecraft ost was a big inspiration for the vibe of this one. In the end i added a chiptune ish sounding triangle solo because thats just what i do so experiment failed? At least im back in my usual territory in the last part so it at least somewhat feels like home. I think what carries this thing the most is the choir / strings like sound which is just a wavesynth with a super fast table arp and tons of reverb and varying the table pitches for chords. Not really a fan of the mix in the end because i couldnt properly control the piano in the way i wanted it to be and i noticed afterwards that something keeps exciting the reverb but i also dont want to work on the stems since i like the raw part of just throwing out what the m8 exports. Since there is already a slight eq on the master and im running out of time i think thats as far as i will go for this one. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - clonedkitty - Synthwave Study #1

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 20:20:28 GMT

Synthwave and darkwave are some of the genres that got me into electronic music. I wasn't feeling too motivated this week so I decided to watch a couple tutorials to try and learn what elements go into making synthwave. There's nothing too imaginative about this song, but it's more focused on learning some technical elements rather than "creating art." I'll probably do more of these exercises in the future to push myself to improve my understanding of how my DAW works, without having to worry about meeting some sort of artistic vision. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Two-chord loopy guitar thing for this week, lots of aspects of this are quite heavy on the Fleet Foxes inspo and I decided to just let it be. Tracks with particularly strong influence I've noticed: I Should See Memphis, Mearcstapa, Cradling Mother, Cradling Woman (count-in at the start), Going-to-the-Sun Road. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 8 - djippy - Mon père est plus fort que le tien

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 20:04:17 GMT

Et ma mère aussi. Had only a phone recording track from the rehearsal local in the bag this early Sunday. Didn't want to "only" upload that as I did last week so I did put a bit of time to build around it. Did load that into Reaper this morning listening to the Olympic hockey Canada-USA game. (Congrats to your team, you didn't play better than Canada, but took the opportunities when it counts) Did tempo map the live performance, then did build eBass - Mellotron - E-Drums around the track. Did try Stems separation on my initial track to have some mix latitude, but it has lots of artefacts, didn't like our raw rock... I still used it to double - beef - reverberize the guitar on some sections. Just a shot from a cloudy-misty day from my office view The live jam phone capture: Fitness journey, boring stuff, same as usual. About 7h of cardio, weight is pretty much the same at 89kg KG... I hope I'll be able to get down to 88kg next week because if I don't, it will be a month without any cut (which isn't bad as I still find the energy to get at it, go to the office biking and add more cardio from home so let's go...) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - geopet - A Nice Day to Loot a Dungeon

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 19:55:37 GMT

This is my continuing effort to work on an ambient track for the EZBOT discord compilation. This week was me returning to the M8 to spend some time playing with multitracking into Ableton and working with plugin reverbs. All the sounds are built off wavetables in the M8 with the exception of the little arp at then end of the track. I spent a bunch of time messing around with mixing, since my earlier efforts made the bass far too present. Really, just having the bass there at all brings in a whole dungeon crawler/dark ambient feel, which is fine if that's what you're going for. It isn't exactly what I was initially going for. :D But hey, to those who do, thanks for listening! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Something a little different this week - trying to leave vocals a little more exposed, less layers of guitars to hide behind, so a much more stripped back approach. Used the SSL Acoustifier plugin on one of the guitar tracks - not sure how I feel about it, but something I'm going to keep tinkering with for DI acoustic guitar recording. Hope you enjoy!

I started with a bass melody and took a preset from Polyend synth..than i had problems with my recording gear and at the end i just took this synth pad, added some effects in ableton and composed a little melody for the short intermission in between.. and by listening to it I thought of a friend and his aquarium and that it might be right for just staring at his fish. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - HoolieBrown - In My Dreams/All I See

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 19:40:59 GMT

I scrapped everything and restarted saturday - not a flex it was just a hard week and I couldn't sit long enough to actually get some decent bits together. I had this idea a long time ago to try to borrow some ideas from 80s rock groups, make a huge busy wall of sound for a chorus, then try to smash a big busy wall of sound vocal harmony chorus on it and try to get it to work. Happy with the results - PSA, make lots of room with your eq's as you go instead of trying to dig yourself out of that prob later. I have never been able to get my voice to work with anything close to synthwave or 80s rock or whatever this is so that was the other big stretch. I'm also pretty happy with that and I learned a lot both on performance and mix sides. I did two takes for vox this time so I could double the lead on the chorus and try more options for the harmony lines in the last part of each verse. I was pitchy and didn't have time to fix any of the squelchy stuff from the tuning, but fortunately it didn't need much. Everything tracked into m8 either through a boss katana go or an md421 through a ua 276 as a dumb interface. all synths were native to the M8, Linndrum and 909 samples. Lyrics were throwaway at first, just looking for easy lines to land in rhythm, and tho filled with cliche, it ended up meaning a lot more than what I intended - funny how that happens. It's about getting older and still having your ambition. Getting older - funny how that happens, too. A distant voice to remember Will it lead or am i running around I see you there beside me no matter how they followed me down I could never miss a heartbeat Ive got to stay in the moment now I’m driving through the backstreets Is it all that you wanted I’ve been looking for it all my life Talks cheap, I’m not a pretender Hit the stage then I drive all night never stop I will never surrender I been looking for a place I’ve known in my dreams it’s all I see ther I know I’m gonna find my home What’s a home if you won’t be there Im never taller than my shadow I’m never one left playing the part I never stay when the lights go down but I’ve never been afraid of the dark We can put it all behind us Give it one last try Are we better of together Or should we let this die I’ve been looking for it all my life Talks cheap, I’m not a pretender Hit the stage then I drive all night never stop I will never surrender I been looking for a place I’ve known in my dreams it’s all I see there I know I’m gonna find my home What’s a home if you won’t be there 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - mukti - KINETIC

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 19:22:35 GMT

Originally started this week playing around with the M8 hypersynth, and ended up with a sad song that had some Lorn vibes to it. After playing with that for a few days, I decided I didn't want to make a sad song. I kept with the hypersynth, but switched it up to a more upbeat track in a minor key... and may have accidentally created another track that sounds like it could be for a racing game? I tried to make this one a little less obviously racing themed (no F1 sound effects this week), but I think that bright hypersynth lead kinda takes my mind in a "racing" direction... Like many tracks I've submitted to WB, its a bit too loud and a bit of a mess but I'm still relatively happy with how it turned out. Any and feedback is appreciated! The picture is one I took while walking through a small hallway in the lower levels of Alte Pinakothek. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Vet - Finesse

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 19:22:19 GMT

Another beat I cleaned up, added to, finished for Kinetic. Done at the request of my buddy David Nevers. I really liked this song and he picked it out from among the libraries to touch up, finish off. It's an upbeat kinda DnB vibe, with fun instrumentation that honestly reminds me a little bit of Star Fox from SNES. I love the bass build up and riffs at the end too. The slides on the main synth with the beat drops is a lot of fun to replay over and over when I listen to it. I hope you all enjoy it too!

Week 8 - BTS - Drifting Through Tinwongsing GO-3

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 19:15:39 GMT

I decided to continue on with my exploration of the Berlin School, mainly focusing on just those elements. I started by creating a simple pluck element (which ended up more metallic sounding), creating the sequence with some arpeggiators. I then took that sequence, chopped it up and used a Pattern Mutator to further alter the pattern with another synth (More of a Moog style synth). Lastly, I added a string machine style pad to anchor everything. After some simple arranging, I EQ'd, mixed and mastered the track. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

A half finished track that was abandoned pretty late in week 5 because I didn't know where to take it beyond this. Got hit with another wave of the flu pretty hard over the weekend, so I spent the better part of saturday and sunday sleeping. Uploading this unfinished thingy to at least keep the streak going. This one started as a rework of another track, the chords and flute lead came from the AlfaTheta Chordcat. Crunchy drums are from OP-1F, I think I used those samples in another WB track as well. Some percussion recorded with the internal M8 mic while on a train, tapping the little fold out table. No mastering this time, just the raw M8 render.

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 17:33:53 GMT

it is what it is! a 7 second loop is as far as I get this week. I spent a couple hours on the flight learning the m8 support for slices and breaks, and another hour recording samples from youtube. This morning I spent an hour arranging something more ambitious before realizing I was just opening more doors when I should be closing them, and started over. I thought I had another hour, but plans changed with the family. So nothing creative to listen to this week; a purely functional weekly beat. At least it's short! Feeling pretty familiar now with the m8, at least! Next week I'll hopefully get to an interesting arrangement. 😅 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

Week 8 - Coldsushi - Neuro

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 17:26:21 GMT

Last week I went down the rabbit hole of neuro bass, watched some videos about it and decided to make a similar design entirely on the m8 I used FM synth with 2 operators no modulators, wrote a simple bass line leveraging lfos for filters, levels and feedback. Then duplicated the bass 2 times in order to apply a different eq on each one of them, bass mid and high. Played with distortions on the different ''bands'' sometimes even changing the wavetable for the mid or high one, as well as more lfos where possible to get a more moving mid range. Quick rendered the bassline (some ott on the mix), then ott squished the sample which worked great to glue and rise the distortions and add even more harmonics. Then just used the samples created by chopping parts, pitch bending, some more eq/filter play and anything else to make an interesting pattern Mid production I felt I needed a different bass to counter the first one and since everything is in the project just some rows above I only had to experiment with different parameters, create a new design and quick render it, crazy Even tho I'm not entirely satisfied with the final result (probably cause I rarely do dnb tunes), I still learned a lot and really enjoyed the process which I'm definitely going to use in the future for other designs. I'm always impressed at how this little device performs, gives me joy and allows me to be creative and to learn more about music production <3 As usual the render is straight out of the m8 Thanks a lot for listening!! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Laineken - M O S A I C

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 17:23:10 GMT

It’s been about three weeks since I hit the road with my dog, Millie, following the recent wave of layoffs. Getting let go forced me to reconsider my career, and honestly, it might be the best thing for me. I’m currently traveling south from Oregon, hitting skate parks and reconnecting with friends and family down the West Coast. For the last eight years, I worked in healthcare and human services. I started at the bottom, working one-on-one with clients and feeling like I was making a real difference. Within five months, I rose to management and stayed there for the remainder of my career. But while the pay doubled, the personal toll was ten times worse. Working primarily in substance abuse treatment and homeless services—realms I have personal experience with from my younger years—I saw a much darker side of the industry. Looking back a decade, I often grieve for the person I was when I was struggling with addiction and sleeping on the streets of Portland. Back then, even when things were tough, I had an optimism that the world was rooting for my potential. After years as a "staff member," I’ve lost that belief. While most frontline workers want the best for people, the individuals running these organizations often see clients as nothing more than dollar signs. As a manager of multiple companies and organizations over the years, my jobs became less about helping people and more about insurance reimbursements/budget restrictions/just whatever to make sure that the owners saw maximum profits. Many will read this and say sure, this is America, these are companies, and this is what companies do, make money. Believe me, I 100% understand that. But I wasn't selling books or cars or something. I was working for companies that were directly responsible for the mental health and well-being of other human beings. And it was just the sheer disregard for humanity at the very top of so many different organizations that really left me with a bad taste and a completely different perspective. It's not okay for the primary focus to be profit when the company is dealing with human beings and their mental health. That also has to factor in somewhere as being something that's equally as important. But it didn't. If it was their first time, second time or third time in treatment, we needed focus on making sure that we got them next time as well. If they've been here more times than that, or if they've been here long enough to where insurance is no longer willing to pay top dollars, we are wasting resources on this person. I saw nonprofits focus on cycling through clients whose insurance would still pay, while discarding those whose coverage had "tapped out." Yes. Non-profits. Those who aren't supposed to be profiting. They aren't supposed to care about stuff like that because the funding is there to operate regardless. I sat in rooms where upper staff made bets on which client would relapse or overdose first. I saw facilities illegally take phones and wallets to keep people from leaving, and advertise mental health care services that no one in the company was qualified to provide. Straight up lies told to people just to get them in the door. I saw people paid illegal commissions based on the amount of clients that they would get in the door. Extra money paid per client as long as they stay in a certain amount of time. That may not sound like a big deal but that's actually totally against the law, there's a very specific bill outlawing it for a very good reason reasons. This is the reality of the "no cures, only ongoing treatment" model. From my own experience and what I’ve learned from experts—like the neurosurgeon who left the field after realizing the system is rigged against true healing (https://youtu.be/25LUF8GmbFU?si=rkNEXz5jog-mpNPU)—I’ve realized that the path to wellness is often much simpler than a lifetime of medical bills. Breakdown: People who heal- get good sleep every night, have low stress levels, eat a healthy (mostly vegetarian) diet, have a good social life/support network, and they do not smoke anything. In reality, having or doing all of these things is not easy, but that doesn't take away from the simplicity of it all. And since I mentioned that I also worked in homeless services, I'll just briefly say that I’ve seen the "Housing First" model work, but it only works for a specific demographic: those without severe addiction or mental health issues. And unfortunately, based on at least what I've seen, homelessness itself causes mental health and addiction issues and from the time I spent out there, the majority of people that live outside struggle with one or both of the two. Without systemic change to zoning and property tax laws, we are just moving people in and out of apartments they aren't equipped to maintain, wasting millions, a cycle that has no end in sight. The zoning laws need to change in order for the housing crisis to be taken care of. As well as some tax laws. Currently, people invest in real estate which makes no sense to me. Real estate is a physical object that deteriorates and diminishes just like anything else. The land is what is valuable. And unfortunately, land owners are taxed very different differently depending on what they build on their land. If a person owns a valuable piece of land and decides to build a 500 unit housing complex, housing 500 families, that person is taxed to hell and back, barely turning a profit, and often time is a small fire or raise insurance prices can put them in the negative, leading the building to be sold to most likely a bank or investment agency, furthering the problems that we deal with here in America. If someone takes that same piece of land, and instead of building apartments, they build a parking lot, they are rewarded greatly by hardly having to pay any tax on that land, basically almost turning into pure profit. This is why when you go to many downtown areas, you see parking lots everywhere. Unfortunately for land owners, and for so many people in the world, building affordable housing is basically a financial mistake. Crisis can be solved with the swipe of a pen, changing a few laws, not spending any extra money, probably less money actually, the difference is it's just paid to different people for different purposes. And that doesn't make the rich very happy, so it isn't being done. If some random 30 something year old dude who went to community college can figure this out, I'm sure that it's known by many many capable important people who are keeping it from happening. Everyone deserves a place to live, a place to be. The feeling of not having that is something that most don't experience but I can just tell you from personal experience, it is a terrible, shameful feeling. It makes you feel like you don't belong. I’m clearly a little bitter, and I think it’s time for a change. I’ve spent so much time trying to help others that I’m not sure how to help myself. That’s why I’m on this trip. Millie is the perfect companion; she lets me vent without judgment, which is something we all need. I’ll leave you with a song. I didn't write it this week—I'm focusing on gathering inspiration while traveling—but I made it recently and I’m proud of it. I’ve been so impressed with the community here; it’s nice to see that it doesn’t always have to be strictly about the music. My name is Lane. It's nice to meet you all. Good luck out there.

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 16:04:37 GMT

Just like last week, I didn't really feel like doing any music this week. In order to keep the streak running however, on Sunday I challenged myself to create something in about 3 hours. To make things easier, I used the C major scale and based the whole track around the chord progression C-F-G-Em Is it perfect? No. But I liked the challenge and I am glad that I have created something this week 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

› noodle_notes!‹ noodle_notes! I’m trying to stick with the piano until I regain my confidence/inspiration/idunnowhat For me my style of noodling isn't very complex. It's mostly me just trying to soothe the inner thoughts with some low tones and happy distractions. So until I rediscover the beats and also feel like my computer isn’t going to zap into thin air, the piano is going to keep me afloat. Everyone has been so supportive I guess I’m just writing this out for my own inner-criticism. The devil on the shoulder thang. Thank you for all the sweet comments, my dad is doing much better. The AFIB thankfully has been relatively quiet with my new medication dosage. I’m still partially afraid to leave my computer. Like it’s gonna zap away into the ether. The new SSD drive is so quiet I feel like I’m using a ghost pooter. Thanks for stopping by, I hope you all have a great week ahead <3 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 8 - JaiClone - Bombshells

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 15:44:56 GMT

I wrote the core idea for this around 2011 and it remained dormant as yet another one of my many, many incomplete music thingoes... *dramatic pause* UNTIL NOW! The only remnant I have of the original idea is a video (?!) of me playing the verse/break/chorus on an acoustic then going '???'. I noticed the video in the idea vault last week, so when this week came around I thought "hmm... let's give that one a whirl..." Although this representation of the song is somewhat loosely what I had in mind back then, I certainly didn't have the means to realise it this way until recently. I didn't even have an interface or proper DAW in 2011, let alone a bunch of cool plugins and gear to help my demos sound more polished. WeeklyBeats 2020/2022/2024 has also helped greatly in experience, learning tiny bits of mixing stuff with each entry. I still feel super amateur, but I can at least see the progress from the 2020 entries to now. A couple of new experiments for me with this one; layering more guitars to try fatten the sound without it being too muddy (the main rhythm part is eight layers in total). I tried different eq and effect levels and a phaser to keep layers less muddled. I wanted a chaotic kind of lead guitar bit, but my lead chops are limited so the cool stuff I was hearing in my head wasn't reaching my fingers. Hopefully what is there conveys a little controlled chaos. I also tried a more aggressive approach to vocals, I don't really have that kind of voice, but an attempt was made. I spent a bit more time tinkering with plugins on this one, such as adding some comp and eq to each individual drum instead of just using the default kit layout. I am yours tonight You hold me down, I hold on tight It won't be calm for long At any time, you drop your bomb Oh no, eggshells Tip toe, through hell You train the butterfly To do your will or it will die You suffocate my soul And wrap me up in your control Oh well, I'm done Hope you, had fun Write a book about it Send a message, phone a friend Just don't take it out on me Get yourself a hobby Hold your breath and count to ten Don't take your shit out on me 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

We wrote this based on the temperance tarot card . This card has been relevant because themes of unbalance and balance have been so consistent lately . Also we are going through kingdom hearts and danganronpa(2) which are primarily about hope and despair having to run as parallels . Idk I took a stem I made years ago and flipped it into this sorta bossa/dub thing . this came out sounding kinda like animal collective or something lyric : i'm patient the way the wind is patient waiting to erode the stone not angry, not happy, not anything really if you blend them all in living function, there's no fear of seasons did we really need a reason ? rather it's even than cohesive there's no fire, there's no water it's something in between not gone or present, there's no hunger if you stab me will i bleed ? and so your process starts to falter and all questions stay unanswered as another me that mirrors you takes the middle road through the clouds within the sky start to stagnate like the end of a game when you've done everything what once was will never be the sun stays up halfway same weather stays for days symmetrical mandate wrap me all up in tape, clip my wings so i stay safety lies in the same my mouth can't reach the words to take any force, or even leave this world 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - onezero - Skytree

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 15:24:01 GMT

This week brought some music-related travel, so I ended up recording this one in a couple different hotel rooms. A Thursday night session was fairly late at night, so playing was quieter and slower than I'd been doing lately. The result didn't fit with what I'd recorded late the next evening in a different room with noisier power, so only one bit of that remains in the final piece. Guitar: PureSalem Mendiola into the UA Volt-1, with no effects inline. But on mixing, I found out just how loud the line buzz was, and I cascaded two Ableton EQ-8s in the stereo mix, with high-q notches at 60, 120, 240, 480, 960, 1.92k, 3.84k, and 7.68k. (Why two? After the compression/eq audio rack, the hum was still audible, so cascading them, one before and one after the compression, seemed to work best.) The title comes from the Tokyo Skytree, which has a pinnacle height of 634m. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Lizenn - Hate

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 14:58:21 GMT

I think I'm getting nearby a creative burnout of some sort. This challenge is taking a toll on me because I'm just not familiar with that much work, more so creative work in so little time. It's tiring and I took most of the week to kinda do nothing. It didn't made me feel better because there's more stuff... (Next part is going to talk a bit about politics, sorry but it really was part of the creative process) Very bad and scary things are happening in france. I mean, it's been years but being very anxious, depressed, queer and all, sometimes it just becomes a bit unbearable. And especially this week with what happened (I'm not going to talk too much about it mostly because I don't know if I'd be able to explain it the right way, but anyway, fascist are rising...). So I spend a lot of time just apathetic because the future is so scary. Anxiety over more anxiety already standing there makes up for a great cocktail ! So I really wanted to make a angry, dark, sad track this week It's not really pretty, it was made quickly with little research and work, but it was needed (by me). It's messy and it gets mad like the hate boiling all around the world, but It ends on a more gentle side, because I hope I'll get better at somepoint. I hope the world will get better. Wish you all the best and sending love away in hope we can together ditch the hate, the violence and the anger, the racism, the homophobia, the transphobia, the bullying, every oppression... and build a kinder world.

Week 8 - DESLRV - Cat in the Wind

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 14:16:54 GMT

Featuring our kitten, Paprika. Very easy to record because he meows all the time. Chopped up the recording and placed throughout the song. This one was requested by the person mentioned last week. They're a system like us, one wanted "calming nature like a wooden windchime blowing in the breeze" and another "cat meow". So that's what we got here. Plus our usual stuff, of course. Putting the cat over the birds is just appropriate. Unrelated to that, last week Leega found a new DAW to try. Waveform FREE (that's actually what it's called) by Tracktion. It is indeed the free version of Waveform pro where they opted for a more modular approach; use as is with honestly quite an impressive volume of features, or buy things you need, like a MIDI package to have an arpeggiator. Stuff like that. We won't be needing any of those, so free is fine. The transition from Sonar to Waveform is honestly pretty smooth, the manual isn't trapped in 90's hell, designs are much more consistent throughout, and most of the VST I use are 64-bit anyway (since it doesn't support 32-bit). Might see where this one goes. The per-track LFOs are neat, but still not quite as well done as LMMS'. - Devieus/Spider 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 13:38:32 GMT

Got started late this week and ended up with some ambientish jank. Didn't like my initial take at first, then I streamed the patch for half an hour to get more in the groove (find the stream on the Earth Modular Society YouTube channel if you're interested), and then recorded a second take, this time with drums. But in the cold light of the next day's relistening, I realized that I preferred my original take, so here you go! Patch notes: - Panning chord chaos from the Sdkc Instruments Helical through Serge Stereo VCFQ and an Avalon Harmonics PanVCA - "Organ" voice from the Serge Medusa through Xaoc Zagrzeb - Bass: Vhikk X - Lead: Monumatic Sequenced from Oxi One Mk2 and controlled from Neuzeit Drop. I did multitrack this, but the raw mix came out "fine", so I decided not to bother reconstructing my mix in the DAW. Headphones recommended!

Week 8 - AdB - Naga Returns

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 13:20:44 GMT

Hello everyone! Very happy with how this one turned out. I tried (once again) to do a banging 4/4 track, incorporating the kind of serpentine bassline I already explored with the "Beheaded Naga" track during week 5, adding a bit more funk and care into transitions. So yeah, February started with a naga and ended with another one. Recorded live in one take - I had a happy accident with one sequence where I suppressed some steps from the pattern, ending up with a polyrhythmic chaos that I loved. No "Fill" button was harmed during the process of making this track. Took more time than usual with the "mastering" chain, added a bit more overdrive/compression (maybe too much?). Anyway, hope you'll enjoy listening to this one as much as I enjoyed making it !!! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

I moved some stuff on my memory card around trying to free up space and... I now know what I need to do beforehand. Appreciate y'all letting me know how to avoid that problem again. So while I get my samples situated I'm taking a short break from Jungle to make D&B. Thank you for stopping by and giving my tracks a spin and for the comments as well! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - 2haf - Coldhearted

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 11:39:07 GMT

Sick this week so a very normal track from me. Maybe the last winter tune now that Spring is coming? Thank you for all your comments everyone. I pretty much had a hiatus there for about three years after wb22, so I'm thrilled to be making music regularly again. Couldn't do it without weeklybeats. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Kedbreak136 - Flashbacks

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 11:21:59 GMT

When one is not inspired, it's sometimes appropriate to go back to the good old soup on an old pot - some drums samples and lots of arps. It's like a cheeseburger - it will not revolutionize anything but can feel good in the right circumstances. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - WahSp - Surfaced

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 11:20:07 GMT

This week I was rather productive on the musical side of life. I worked on multiple tracks that are now quite far in development. I think all the work on the weekly beats helps me break out of the endless looping that I usually do and focus on arrangement a bit earlier in the process. I also think ideas for arrangements come to me a bit more quickly now. I've also spent quite some time exploring music production on my Mega65 (which I acquired a long time ago, but did not do much with until now). Maybe that will lead to something I can share via weekly beats at some point. So, I had multiple things that I considered submitting. I'll just keep most of them for weeks in which I am more rushed (in a folder called weekly cheats). The one I submit now is perhaps even the least developed one, in the sense that it doesn't have a good ending yet (currently, it just fades out, but I am not super happy with that yet). I am also unsure about the breakbeat in this one. Sometimes when I listen to it, it feels that a bit off. So please, let me know your thoughts on this! Personally, I mostly liked to the lead on this one - it has something subtle about it that I like. Not sure if in the mix it is currently too subtle. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Philly - Courage v9 (live drop)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 11:19:50 GMT

The Courage to be one's Self. v9(live drop) I binged ate some junk food which caused me to relapse into heavy symptoms and crash and be bed bound for the week. I was completely befuddled with no energy or capacity to create so I dug out this gem from the vault. It's one of my favourite things I've ever written. It started life quite humbly as a Weekly Beat back in 2020 (if your curious you can hear some of the formative ideas here https://weeklybeats.com/phliip/music/the-courage-to-be-yourself) I've always really loved listening to it, and the more I tweak and refine it, the more things I find that I can still improve. I'd really like to be able to finish and release it. The project file was on an old hard drive that had been water damaged. The file has massive load times and CPU strain but still functions... (I should really learn to back things up.) As such... There are musical elements that are missing from different versions that I'd like to restore... You can hear some of the missing pieces in this version (https://weeklybeats.com/phliip/music/courage-81) While editing the video I realised I could splice V8 & 9 together, so you get the best of both worlds. All the elements that were missing from the V9 bounce are there; and that's the best I can do for now until I can get more clarity on the project file. ---- I was "um" ing and "ah" ing about the 3rd drop... I kinda love it now and need it in my life, but I've also grown accustomed to it being a shorter more chill tune without an explosive finale. Either way, I've listened to it so many times that I've written lyrics to it now and kinda wanna go test it out live in my local open mic circuit, and I think this live drop will be good for that. What are your thoughts on the third drop? I suppose I could actually make a few different versions for the release it's a win/win. Now I just have to settle on a name and branding. Hope your week was awesome and you got some cool shit done!! Mwah! XX P 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 08:24:53 GMT

This is a snippet of a jam session I had with Impbox. Chords/melodies were made on the M8, beats on the Digitakt, and little glitches/retriggers were from the Kaoss pad. We went for an IDM sort of vibe. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 8 - ONE HIT KILL - BRKloose on the hangline. LSDJ/Nanoloop2/Surf Guitar

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 06:49:50 GMT

Pretty simple take on the same recipe again. Every time I try this I want to include more gameboy synth-ey elements but kind of always settle with this minimalist design. For the most part this is; lsdj break beats, nanoloop drum machine, nanoloop as a bass guitar imitation and some simple guitar chords. Almost every instrument is doing nothing. But hey, I'd rather serve the song than my ego. Double tracked guitar parts with diff amps and guitars with no deliberate intent but it works how it lays. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

Week 8 - Martiln - Chronitect - The Hunter Comes Alive

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 06:25:06 GMT

Probably went a little overboard with this one but I had a lot of fun! I'll need to go back and redo the verse vocals as they are a bit crappy, but eh, the track is cool! I have a gruesome story to go with it, because I thought the energy of the track called for it. You have been warned. Story “Tell me where he is!” Taz yelled at the man cowering on the ground before him. The man was slumped up against the wall. He had a broken nose, a black eye, and blood dripping down his face, not to mention the broken legs held together only by his armoured bodysuit. The man looked up at Taz and smiled, coughing up blood as he chuckled. “You’ll never find him,” he said. Taz put his foot down on the man’s hand, and using his enhanced strength slowly pressed it into the ground with his heavy boots. The man screamed in agony. Taz knew he was going too far, but he couldn’t help himself. Whoever it was who had taken him deserved to die a horrible death—and so did anyone who got in Taz’s way. “TELL ME!” Taz yelled again at the man. The man looked up at him, breathing heavily, dead in the eyes. “No,” he said back. Taz took his foot off the man’s hand. Fine then, he thought to himself. This one’s useless to me. Taz crouched down and grabbed the man’s face either side. “See you in the pits,” he said, then broke the man’s neck in one swift motion. Taz stood up and let the man’s body fall to the floor. Onto the next one. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - george bowles - Dice game 4: Solar Feedback and Sun Ra

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 05:58:02 GMT

so i played my dice game again where i roll random equipment and make a track with a limited set of tools. this week i rolled feedback generator, shaker, voice, drum machine. it's a little similar to the first test dice game i did, but different setup. I was running a little late on coming up with lyrics and vocals so i decided to use some Sun Ra writing on goodreads (quote section of their website). it seems related to his idea/philosophy brother in the wind. anyhow, i created feedback loops on three different guitar pedals using a stereo splitter adapter and running a cord out of one of the two outputs back into the pedal, one a multi-fx with drum machine, one a fuzz pedal, and one another multifx pedal. each pedal had its own range, one had the widest variety of sounds, another was in a limited upper midrange to high frequency spectrum, and the fuzz was mostly bassy which was nice that the three pedals i rolled complemented each other because I didn't roll any guitars or keyboards, it ended up being a rather primitive piece, bordering on noise and industrial in the vein of throbbing gristle, perhaps. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - orbit_normal - Bitter Grass

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 05:14:17 GMT

I had a lot of false starts this week. One of those starts began by sequencing the East Beast -- just an arp with a fun patch. I really haven't experimented with the sequence external gear > sample into the M8 > fiddle with knobs while it's recording workflow. I really like! It's a bit more intuitive than meticulously adjusting parameters in the FX lane (though I do enjoy doing that as well). 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Michael Morrow - Found In Your Place

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 04:26:08 GMT

I'm a bit late to the party, but I figure there are still 45 weeks left in the year, so I'm going to go for it! This is a song I've written for Easter. I'm a Christian songwriter, and I love exploring behind the clichés that worship artists often use. Christians talk about Jesus taking our place on the cross, but what does that actually mean? And if Jesus took our place, then where do we find ourselves? Did you see our Saviour there As he hung on that cross? It was my cross, it was my cross Did you see the nails they drove Through his hands and his feet? They were my nails, they were my nails One thing I know Jesus, you took my place And now I find myself in yours Wearing the glorious crown That you gave me A seat at your table The place you have saved me A Father who welcomes me With delight on his face ‘Cause, Jesus, I ’m found in your place Did you hear the voices mock As the king bowed his head? It was my shame, it was my shame Did you feel the crown of thorns That they hung on his brow? That was my crown, that was my crown One thing I know Jesus, you took my place And now I find myself in yours Wearing the glorious crown That you gave me A seat at your table The place you have saved me A Father who welcomes me With delight on his face ‘Cause, Jesus, I’m found in your place With a cry he breathed his last And the day turned to night That was my death, that was my death On the third he raised his head To be crowned with new life He was raised up, I was raised with him One thing I know Jesus, my righteousness My defence, my life, my all Wearing the glorious crown That you gave me A seat at your table The place you have saved me A Father who welcomes me With delight on his face ‘Cause, Jesus, I’m found in your place 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - smallsignals - Penelope

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 04:11:33 GMT

This song is 19 minutes and 35 seconds of two best friends embracing the mess and trusting each other to land somewhere by listening to each other. Lately, music is something musicians try to make perfect; ignoring the humanity in favor of grid maps, overusing pitch correction, and removing all the fuck ups. One guitar, a loop pedal, and two vocals. Lyrics made up on the spot. Doors closing, chairs squeaking, and communication between clearing throats. Room mics, close mics, and a bit of EQ. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Tom Foolery - Muggy

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 03:47:07 GMT

Yet again, I did not leave enough time for my weeklybeats so I did not have the time to finesse this as much as I'd like. BUT I am incredibly pleased with the results. I set out to write a slowcore influenced track, and ended up here. Not quite what I had in mind, but a very pleasant surprise. As I use this as somewhat of a diary, some week recap highlights: - Went on some wonderful social runs with friends - Saw Ethel Cain perform a haunting set, such powerful range between hushed songs and noise interludes - Watched my friend's band play a rowdy set! - Some very cute moments with my cats - Went to a free concert in the park near my house put on by my local council! - May have solved a problem at work that had been bugging me for MONTHS which was a HUGE relief. Does it make sense? not entirely. Is it solved though? Yes! as I watch her run for her train she's not looking back I feel her fingers in my veins reaching for a heart attack leave me on this platform as you go leave me standing broken and alone pen on paper I know these words will be the last I am hoping she'll miss that train but she is running fast 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Napear - Simmering Headwinds

Sun, 22 Feb 2026 00:23:38 GMT

So this week is like fully speedtrash ʱªʱªʱª(ᕑᗢूᓫ∗) ... I spent most of the week picking away at a track on my Polyend Tracker Mini, and I actually really like it, which is part of the problem... like it needs more work to do justice to what's already there... and I'm busy with some other things this weekend... so last minute pivot. For this one I basically held the feeling of "the grind" in my head... that seemingly endless march towards mediocrity that is life in a corporate American job... and then I just started layering favorited presets until I ran out of time. Since I only had a couple of hours, the result is pretty rough, but hey, maybe that’s the point. On a personal note, I feel like I'm kinda getting my groove back a little. Like, I think I was trying to do too much in January, and now I'm slowing things down and accepting that I have to pace myself more than I'm accustomed to... the world is just a lot, and I guess that means we all just need to give ourselves a little more "headroom" so to speak. Anyway... I hope you are all doing well this week and staying sane out there. <3 › Production Notes‹ Production Notes I didn't try anything new here, I just reached for the tried and true. It’s basically just six layers of some of my "go-to" media libraries: Ashlight, Straylight, and Kaivo for the granular textures, layered with Fables and some Tina Guo Acoustic Cello. I did break out iZotope Nectar 4 for the Pharlight vocal granular patch, that I kind of treated like a "real" voice. It was nice to actually use that plugin for once since I hardly ever mix vocals, but it has some pretty awesome presets in it. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

My music room is in shambles while we have some home reno work going on. Everything is push to the side and covered in sheets, so focusing on something different this week. I just picked up a hapax to be the brains of my external gear, so this is me coming to grips with that. My ALM Turismo (small euro rack system) is supplying the drums and synth (Squid Salmple with LinnDrumm sounds, CIZZLE doing the voice work). The bass part is the Intellijel Cascadia. I recorded each part, and threw some plugins at them in Ableton. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 8 - Minnamari - Käärmepää

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 21:52:00 GMT

This dark and dramatic Finnish song is a continuation of the myth of "Minnamari Meduusa". (If you're curious about the earlier songs connected to that character you can check out my album Aave Meduusa). The name of the song means Snakehead and I think the lyrics explain what it's about.. This song is a part of a forthcoming series of Finnish songs where my aim is to transmute old, suppressed anger and pain by singing about it in poetic yet raw and honest terms. Process: I separately recorded ukulele and then sang onto that and also added some bass and high tones in the software (FL studio). It took some tweaking to synchronize the different tracks but I think it's close enough. The song turned out more flowy than I originally intended (earlier versions where I tried recording it just with ukulele I was outright screaming and it was more "punk"...but I let the song take me on a journey and just tried to follow along. I discovered, that sometimes, simply calmly stating something can be more menacing than screaming outright. Or what do you think? Lyrics (translated to English) ------------------------------ You can't pull the hair of the snakehead anymore No one can pull the hair of the snakehead anymore or the snakes will bite your fingers off They bite your hands bloody and the fingers off The snakes will bite the fingers off off and the hands bloody I'll color my hair red with your blood But you can't pull anymore No, you can't pull anymore Or the snakes will bite your fingers off They'll bite your fingers off (Original Finnish lyrics) -------------------------- Käärmepään hiuksia sä et voi vetää enää Käärmepään hiuksia ei kukaan voi vetää enää tai käärmeet puree sormes irti Ne puree kädet verisiksi ja sormet irti Käärmeet puree sormes irti irti Kädet verisiksi vaan Värjään mun hiuksiani verelläsi punaisiksi Mutta vetää et voi enää Ei, vetää et voi enää Tai käärmeet puree sormes irti Ne puree sormes irti 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 20:06:17 GMT

I had a busy weekend and essentially only had Friday to make my weekly beat. I phoned up my old roommate, Riley Bruce, to see if he wanted to collab after work. I would take whatever sounds we generated and arrange and mix them later that night. We had a strong vision and generated some damn good sounds (mostly with his Korg Minilogue). The arrangement went into the midnight hour and was excruciating (I'm awful at it) but I'm proud of how this turned out. I hope you enjoy. I'm off to San Fransisco!

Week 8 - Continuous Nonlinearities - Scoundrel

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 19:38:47 GMT

I was watching a video on industrial bass sounds, and it made me go "yeah, FM bass!" So I broke out the Volca FM and found a good preset ("Pluckkey"), and I think I adjusted the envelope a little? Initially I was thinking this would just be a part to put in a couple times but then it became the basis of the whole thing. After working on the song a bit more, I accidentally overheard the Volca playing the part on its own speaker, which I liked, so broke out the field recorder and mixed that in, adding a bit of bite and definition that worked well together. Death By Audio Rooms on gate mode on the Digitakt drums gave me a good approximately D tone, setting my key. Spooky gothy string pad via Alpha Juno. Plinky synth from the Prophet 6: my initial version was too plinky and I had to turn down the high pass resonance. It sits better now. There was initially going to be more plinks! But it did not actually add! This is one of the things I am working on, not playing every instrument constantly, they are allowed to just do small parts. It is hard. Random speech via an audiobook on Project Gutenberg, "Seven Wives and Seven Prisons: Or, Experiences in the Life of a Matrimonial Monomaniac" by L.A. Abbott, read by Kehinde and released to public domain, and fragmented by Chase Bliss Blooper (though in retrospect this might've been a better job for Habit). Title inspired by this selection. High background chime is a guitar loop in the Montreal Assembly Count to 5 into Pladask Baklengs, with Chase Bliss Lost & Found giving a bit of stereo ambience. I tried to mix in different pitches of loop but it isn't very obvious for the most part. And then field recorder of the whole mix for a bit of air. Overall this is probably a bit too long and could use a bit more variation in the drum part, but that is basically everything I write. This could probably turn into a great 4 1/2 minute track with a little more structuring and an actual vocal. Fun to write it, anyway! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Sodabelly - Video Game Theme

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 19:17:31 GMT

This week I tackled the theme song for my buddy's in-progress video game. I had a few notes and chords that I was both set on and stuck on at the same time, I had about five seconds of music that I really struggled to flesh out but I knew something good was in there somewhere. A big problem I have when composing is I just don't have the discipline to sit down and work something out, I tend to just do things that I know work and work quickly so I'm pretty happy that I challenged myself to work through those issues this week and was lucky enough to have the time. I fear that my friend will think this track is too serious or too slow in parts but as a WB track, I'm very happy with it! Uploading this on Saturday so I can spend Sunday morning catching up on everyone else's stuff with a giant coffee :) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Ruffian Price - Plain Wash

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 17:22:59 GMT

A chiller, desolate sort of thing, thinking of "battlefield the day after" type scenes. It's a wash since there's a long tail delay-reverb AUX I've sent almost everything to, more or less. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Subtonic Jungle - Bodycam

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 17:09:01 GMT

Used this little sleek break instead of amen. Real police bodycam samples for your pleasure. I added couple DBs with slight saturation, using T.Power's track from his 1995 album "The Evident Truth.." as a reference. And yeah, Jungle is not a headphone music, plug some bass bins yall. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - jimmac - Radium Girls

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 16:12:32 GMT

While the first half of the track might seem close to dull, I made this one to please my daughter. This is the first track I made that she likes. None of that "toilet music" that daddy usually makes. The name isn't very fitting to the style. Perhaps like me you are unaware about the term Radium Girls -- usually young girls volunteering to paint items with a glowing radium paint as a war effort. Enjoying a good feeling of doing a good thing and enjoying being center of attention at parties. With a rather sad tax to pay later. https://itsblossom.com/curiosity/radium-girls-history/ 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 8 - RajaTheResidentAlien - weak week

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 14:44:34 GMT

don't get me wrong, i love the sounds i've synthesized here, but overall, it's not really a track, it's more like an algorithmically sequenced bunch of sounds(i dunno... just haven't been feeling anything lately, this year has started out rough, and all i'm trying to do is stay positive... why do we even need to do that? why stay positive? ... i guess because it could always get worse. turns out, that writing this out into my weeklybeats description has been somewhat therapeutic this week. thank you... still haven't figured anything out, but at least this much lets me know my brain is still working towards the positives). max patch pasted below(there's a big looking toggle near the bottom-center of the patch, just click that on, and it will cycle automatically to the rhythm through various presets to keep the sound changing). › Here_Is_The_Max_Patch‹ Here_Is_The_Max_Patch ----------begin_max5_patcher---------- 21663.3oc68t0iiijrlfuW+J3JTCvNUkkJ+NIGLyrU+37PiY.NGf4gBms.SI

Week 8 - nukecult - Disco Muerte

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 10:32:09 GMT

I started with the intention to do something "disco" but dark. I don't know if it is too disco, but I think it sounds deathly enough. I played with the volumes of instruments without any method and in the end I had a mess, I had to render 5 times because there was always some effect messing with the tracks volumes. I am not entirely sure this is well done in that aspect, but I got bored of messing with the effect and volumes, dude to chains being reused in several phrases. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Follow on from last week. I've been really enjoying listening to this over again and choosing a few points to work on. This will be likely the last track from this session for weekly beats, as I'm prioritising releasing it as a full release, ahead of the rest of the backlog. i have no idea what kind of genre this is, so suggestions are welcome. i've never been good at categorising my music. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Earp Lug - It's Gonna Be Okay

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 04:52:47 GMT

This week has been tough so I kinda had to rush. I wanted to make a song called 88888888 for Week 8, but I'll have to do it for another week and then plop it in when I make the final project video. It requires a lot of multiples of 8 and re-recording over and over, and I'm making three feature films this week before I go out of town and just don't have the time for it. There's also some personal stuff going on that's been freaking me out, so I keep telling myself this mantra to keep me from going crazy. For the music, I took a bunch of synths that I had sorta set up for another project. I recorded me bringing them in and out and playing with eachother in a few 6-10 minute sessions, then I pulled different pieces from different sessions and layered them on top of eachother to create a structure of order leading into chaos and then back into order. Layers: I messed around with some drones on my Stylophone DS-2. To match the drone, I played an arpeggio of two black keys on the Crave. I turned up the Tempo and Glide until it created a droning sound, then messed around with the Cutoff and Resonance to keep things interersting. For some sessions I also fed it into a Reverb pedal, but I don't think I used that. Maybe I did. Idk. I don't have much time and I can't remember what I did. I played keys on the MicroKorg (only the black ones. That way I'm in tune with the Crave according to that one Japanese scale). I then brought in the hard glitch of the Ellitone Multisynth. It started running through the reverb pedal at full reverb so it also kinda droned, but I turned the reverb off and played the notes in a weird glitch patch that created a strange melody. In another session, I made my Crave and DS-2's LFOs (tied to cutoff) quite fast so they would get kinda crazy, and then I layered them over the Multisynth section of the song to add a bit more chaos to the mix. I then brought in the same drone from the beginning, but a different piece of notes played on the MicroKorg to finish the song out. All in all, not my worst music by far. And it even has a level of structure that corresponds to what I want my mental/emotional state to do when I start freaking out again! For the video, I took some footage I shot of an extreme closeup of my wife's lips as she ate some gummies I gave her for Valentine's day. At one point she holds up a little egg gummy, which is my pet name for her. You can't really tell though, because the footage is run through some hard glitch courtesy my @Tachyonsplus Psychenizer in combination with my @circuitbenttv L/S/D+ (kinda like a homemade time base corrector that's created specifically for circuit bent glitch boxes). I ran the footage through a brightness/color controller before it went into the glitch boxes, and I cleaned up the final output with a time base corrector. I thought I recorded two sessions of the footage sped up to 200% speed and two sessions of the footage slowed down to 50% speed, but I guess I didn't record one of the slower ones. I took long portions of the footage normalised back to 100% speed for the beginning and end, and hid some cuts when the footage totally fell out and stopped looking good, and then I edited the hard glitch of the three different sessions to the beat of the glitch music in the middle portion. Side note, my wife didn't realise I was filming so close to her mouth and she hates the raw footage, but she doesn't mind the glitched out version. Neat! https://youtu.be/NeDA_l9J7Yg 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 8 - haleja - The Raptors of Nankeen

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 03:21:38 GMT

Nankeen Kestrels are small birds of prey. I was fortunate enough for one to land in my backyard where I was absolutely mesmerized by its stunning plumage. A far step up from the sparrows and pigeons usually hanging around, that's for sure. Anyways, another week another song! Finally starting to feel like I'm back in the groove of churning these bad boys out. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Xavier - Interstellar Soundscapes (Starbound)

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 23:05:38 GMT

I wrote this song for my band, Interstellar Soundscapes — a project built on vision, discipline, and the belief that we are meant for something greater. I serve as the leader and saxophonist, and our sound draws heavy inspiration from Japanese jazz fusion pioneers like Casiopea, T-Square, and Dimension — music that feels like motion, like velocity, like the soundtrack to a journey beyond the horizon. We’ve needed original material for a long time. So instead of waiting, I created. This entire piece was written in a single night — born out of urgency, ambition, and the fire to move forward. To me, this song feels like a battle — not one of defeat, but of endurance. It represents pushing through resistance, keeping the engine running when doubt creeps in, and chasing a brighter future that waits just beyond sight. It is a reminder that if I stay consistent, if I refuse to stop, the reward will come. One day, every hope and every dream I carry will become reality. This track is more than music — it is momentum. Every instrument you hear was performed by me: guitar, synths, piano, bass, drums, and auxiliary. It’s a testament to self-belief and relentless forward motion. If you’d like to follow the journey, our band Instagram is @interstellar_soundscapes, and mine is @thegreat_avirex. The engine is running. We are starbound. 🌌 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - parappayo - Pollinators

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 21:53:36 GMT

The frenetic energy continues this week but I wanted to try for something a bit more chill and uplifting, so this is my attempt at something more jungle-y. I did it all in Bitwig, using Basimilus Iteritas for the kick, a 606 snare sample, Motto Akemi for various FM perc, Blofeld for the pad with SketchCassette to lo-fi it, and Lush for the melodic arp. I recorded manual parameter tweaks for some parts. It's all a bit rushed but whatever, onwards and upwards. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 8 - BarristerPlong - Mortarion

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 21:41:44 GMT

I knew I wanted to do something inspired by the Deathguard this week as their slow inevitable doom marches lend itself well to something slow and brutal. The › first synth‹ first synthMinifreak: Oscillator 1: VAnalog Oscillator 2: SawX A fast triangle LFO is modulating the pitch which is quantized to minor pentatonic. you hear was where it began. It felt a lot like the opening synth in Pink Floyd's 'On the Run' which led me to shape the section with some distorted echoing coms and a brief introduction to the melody with › second synth‹ second synthMinifreak: Comets preset. The second section introduces my › distorted 7 string‹ distorted 7 stringMeinzinger 7 String Revenant into my Katana MKII on the crunch setting with a Rat pedal in front then Valhalla Supermassive with long feedback so it echoes in drop A alongside a church bell sample I got from Freesound.org that is tuned to A so it's harmonious with the guitar. The second synth returns with an expanded melody while the drums gradually build up in the background. The third section is my 7 string and the second synth returning to the basic melody. In sections two and three you can hear some faint chanting which is my gravelly voice chanting 'Aya chia hassayah' And that's it! I wanted to make something slow, brutal, inevitable and unsettling. Happy week 8 everyone! <3 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - cistern stairs - mecha pangolin

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 21:37:08 GMT

Week 8 Goal at start 2/18: Make multiple loop experiments. Don’t just run with the first thing you put down. Try to get at least 3 different ideas going and pick one. End notes 2/20: I ended up not making multiple entirely different song concepts like I intended due to time limitations. Instead I focused more on reworking little 4 and 8 bar segments more than I usually would. Though the end result isn’t anything extraordinary, I could definitely sense the change in my thought process during composing. Constantly challenging the notes I’ve already put down and the sounds I’ve picked helps me perceive more clearly what I’m working with. I think I used to not change things mid process as much out of a sense that there wasn’t enough time. Now I understand it takes just as long if not longer to drag a worse idea to the finish line, plus there’s the exhaustion and despair of having to listen to it on repeat. Taking the time up front to crack it sooner saves time and momentum in the end. Action plan for next week: Repeat the goal from this week, only put a little more effort into sound selection for the main melody. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

This week, I was playing with Waldorf's improved version of Attack drum synth. Its wild. Threw in some Damage to give it some thumps and decided that after owning it for ages, I should give Waves O Vox a try. Its pretty fun. I guess this is inspired by a remix someone did for one of my next releases. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - Cosmic Cairns - Quark Enlarger

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 19:25:54 GMT

I didn't have a total plan where I was going when I sat down to start this one, but I did kind of think it was going to go in a different direction than how it ended up. Like with chord changes and stuff. Instead I almost immediately hypnotized myself with the guitar line I stumbled on and decided to just let it ride. I piled on some more guitars and noises courtesy of the microkorg and monotron delay. It ends a little abruptly because I had to just kind of stop. I probably could have kept on going for like 20 minutes or something. In other news I released a new album this week. It's kind of an abstract journey through space, and I think it came out pretty cool. I kind of seem to drift into some different directions when I have longer than a week to work on a track. If you want to see what I was up to during 2025, you can check it out on Bandcamp here: https://cosmiccairns.bandcamp.com/album/kicking-stars or you can find it on the streaming sites. I do realize that listening to WB tracks takes priority, so if you want to bookmark it to check out later or whatever, that's cool, too. Special shoutout to orangedrink for downloading it like within a minute of me posting it. You rock! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hold on tight as we spiral down Into the underground where we won't be found And now I see the light I'm a supercharger And a quark enlarger and I'm on embargo Don't look now but the Earth is shaking And there's no mistaking that the world is breaking Can't believe at this late hour The amount of power that's still held by cowards Let's bring them down and start a whole new order Time is getting shorter and we can't afford it 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - alonemusic - I Guess this is Forever

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 18:39:16 GMT

This weeks track is a an experiment in swing. I rarely touch swing, don't know why.. but I spent much of the early part of the week listening to the Citizen Sleeper soundtracks and felt the need for some lo-fi synths. I tried my best to avoid the ol' lofi beats 'clock tick' which is weirdly the audio equivelent of a knife in the ear for me, and I enjoyed how much bounce you can get in beats you program yourself. I also wanted washes of audio, so bit crushed pianos through massive reverbs? Yeah go on then. Art: Bonus: I actually had a weirdly productive monday, I wanted to try some synth patches, and while it wasn't what I wanted to do for the week, I was kinda happy with this little synth jam, so here it is on soundcloud, like a B-side to the week.. Maybe I'll come back to it if I have a week where I'm not feeling it: https://soundcloud.com/alonemusic/palm-dive-mix-1 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - Disposable Planet - Positron Emission

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 18:01:46 GMT

Back for more melodic LSDJ? This week, in keeping with the elementary particle theme, we are doing the positron, which is a fermion. Positrons are actually antimatter! That means they are the opposite counterpart of ordinary matter. The positron is an anti-electron, which means it has a positive charge as opposed to the negative charge that electrons normally have. Positronic antimatter is used in various real world applications like medical imaging and materials research to observe and image the insides of objects without having to cut or crack them open. There is a type of medical scan called a PET scan (PET stands for Positron Emission Tomography) which is a fascinating process in which a radioactive nuclide is injected into the human bloodstream. Over time, the circulatory system spreads it throughout the body via blood flow, and after a period the substance decays which creates anti electrons via a process known as positron emission. The positrons or anti electrons collide with the electrons in the chemical bonds in the molecules of your body and tissue and annihilate each other (which is what happens when matter and antimatter collide). This annihilation produces gamma radiation which is detectable by an imaging sensor. This allows a medical technician to create a detailed 3D image of your body's blood flow and metabolic processes. The only reason I know this is because my mom had a PET scan when she was battling cancer and so I read as much as I could about it. I told the radiologist that I was gonna have a t-shirt made for my mom before the scan that said "Don't Worry Mom - It's Only Antimatter!". Since positrons have a positive charge I wanted this song to focus on positive vibes. So it's a cheerful little number with a lot of different parts most of which are happy and mellow. I'm especially proud of the bridge section, which is in a mixolydian mode. There are some hard panned arps as per usual and some counterpoint sections where I introduce a secondary melody that harmonizes the lead. There is a big influence on this track from the jam band Phish. I’ve always loved that band and their melodic style so it kinda rubbed off on me. This marks 6 tracks done on the new album. 4 to go! The particles I have left that I've chosen to make tunes for are the gluon, the quark, and the muon. Plus there will be a track about fermions in general to counterbalance the song dedicated to bosons. As always, thanks for listening! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - skkmkk - Olympix

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 12:32:04 GMT

Once again some arpeggio was spinning in my head on Monday. I popped on my Kawai K4 and it all came out like one big thought in one hour. Later on Tuesday I built the arrangement. Wednesday I was in a point that there was nothing to be added. I was happy with it. All I needed was some reasonable mixing - and oh boy did I went on deep end of it, until I lost my interest on mixing. I think I did decent. The bassline was recorded in stereo, but I changed it to mono so it wouldn't take too much space. On Friday I wanted to test some 303 acid lines on top of it, but it went way too hectic, so I decided it was there already, don't add anything, just stick what I've got and be happy with it. All sounds are recorded from Kawai K4, so it's kind of a showcase of this digital resonant filter kind of love affair I'm having right now. Sequenced and arranged in Reaper, some fx again from Arturia FX plugins. The lead melody is somehow uplifting and aetheresque, so I think the title reminds for the days of Olympic Games in Italy. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Behind on listening to other's WB this week and last. Hope to get back to it soon. Attention too split for now. Tet (lunar New Year) breakfast, w/ in-laws. Wore Áo Dài for fun. Just the 4 of us this year. Nice check in call with mom. Heavy raining this week. Hard to find time for walks. Dinner with Gesceap, Crashfaster, E, and P. Shared music, talked about movies, swapped stories, and caught up. Nice night. Deloreand Overdrive booking for POW Bonus round confirmed. Wife working on flyer. Found personal booking requests on instagram that had been hidden in a section of my DM's. Apparently I missed out on a paid gig months ago and didn't know :( Generally don't like checking Socials. Miss messages all the time. Setup pinned comment on Bluesky as a warning about it recently. Mostly YT and instagram these days. Binged watched Severance's 2 seasons. Talked with AL about how it reminded me of old jobs. The language used to control, unionization prevention, and hierarchy structure experiences between different jobs. The show feels like a master class with the themes satired. Real life a bit too close to satire in some cases. Tech and Food service especially. Comparing notes having worked private, governmental, and contracted jobs. Probably should try for non-profit next just to complete the set (early internships not included). Good sci-fi premiss. Worked on Delorean Overdrive setup. Made new modular patch in the 104HP case and rearranged modules for ergonomics. Took out 2hp mixer and Music Thing Modular Radio Music (Intros too much BG noise). Experimented with using contact mic to trigger Michgan Synth Works SY0.5 and routed noise sweeps and Electro Faustus EF01 to one output. Might move EF01 to 4th instead. Need to setup midi channels and review set file. Media Consumed: Severance, Sorceress (1982), Highlander (1986), The Watch (2012), The Age of Magical Over thinking by Amanda Montell, On Bull shit by Harry G.

Short on time and investment this week. Both tracks made on laptop speakers, visual mixing, and ozone 10's automated mastering. Stuck with limitation explorations and short sessions. For MusicMouse, made with Eventide's recreation of the old software. By waving mouse around you can send quanitized midi data clocked to external midi for novel results. allowed for only 2 midi layers using this method, with some basic improvised motions. Used the midi to create system that reacts like old casio keybord accompaniment modes. Entire song made with a few mouse waves (track pad in my case). smplGen made with ableton's generative features and modulators. Limited myself to 4 midi tracks and an hour to make something.

Week 8 - dadboy - Spring

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 04:37:29 GMT

Really struggled with this one this week. I kept trying to turn this soundscape at the beginning into something different, and it was just not working. I tried several times to transition this into different things, and each time I ended up frustrated. I finally got it to something I kinda like, but I realized something important in the process. › Something I have a hard time talking about so I'm going to spoiler it.‹ Something I have a hard time talking about so I'm going to spoiler it. I have a hard time feeling like I am worthy or deserving of good things or positive attention. This extends to my music, and I've shared in previous weeks some of my reflections on that. The responses I have received over the last several weeks have been so kind and encouraging, and I have sincerely cherished every one. You have all been so generous, and it really has been touching, but the temptation has been so strong grab onto those encouragements and to try to build some sense of worth and meaning out of them. That won't work, and leaves me feeling anxious and even less less worthy. I don't think I struggled so much this week because I didn't like the simple ambient soundscape I felt stuck with. I struggled so much because I was afraid you all wouldn't like it. I don't think that'd ever manifest in people being unkind or dismissive—you all seem far too generous for that. But I still was (and am) afraid. Maybe no one would care about it or engage with it. Maybe I'll fade back into complete obscurity, largely ignored (where I often feel like I deserve and belong). But I don't want to feel like that. I want to be real. I want to share with you all because I want both to know you and be known. I want to communicate with you through our music, not simply derive validation and security from you. I still want to be real, and I hope you'll do the same. So this is what I've got. It started with this sparkly and wobbly little TEO-5 pad layered on top of a Norns tape recording, where barcode mangled that same pad, with a TEO-5 arp on top. I eventually got it to turn into at least a passable synthwave track, and while I am not completely satisfied, it felt like it was time to move on. I do hope you enjoy it, but I'm going to share it and do my best not to worry about it. Have a good week <3 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - shamloo - w08 wotionbeat

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 04:27:39 GMT

You follow the potion master into a small study where he has you sit. You sink into the plush worn leather chair and try to fathom the books and trinkets that fill every available space. After a short wait he joins you and sits in the opposite chair. He clears his phlegmy throat and says, "Tell me what is you seek." You explain in detail how you first heard of the wizard and what you wish for him to do. He asks you strange questions about your life, trivial things you can scarcely remember. Finally, after two hours of questioning (and payment) he guides you downstairs to the brewing chamber. "Wait here while I gather the ingredients from my stores," he commands. From a back room he rolls out a shaky brass cart with squeaking wheels. "Have you ever seen a potion brewed before?" he asks. You answer that you have not. "Perhaps this will be of interest to you, observe." --- After last week's song I knew I wanted to do a track with the potion master applying his craft. After I finished the track I cracked open my DAW for the first time this year to record the potion master's lines. You can record on m8 directly but that seemed a little too difficult after a couple of attempts. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - MoJoe - Dipsomania

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 19:47:20 GMT

I find it astounding how much I used to let alcohol drive my life. Time spent with friends, loved ones, pets. Typically I was just focused on where my next drink would come from. Have one before I left, make sure I had one when I arrived. If the trip was long enough, there was one for the road. There wasn't some big moment that made everything clear to me. Thankfully no tragedy struck that hurt anyone else. It's a nasty thing, that dipsomania blanket. The term was created at a time in American history when drinking copious amounts of alcohol was not only permissable, but recommended for safety over water. A dipsomaniac was someone the culture deemed "too obsessed with alcohol. Uncontrollable urges." I think we have moved away from harsh realities. It helps people sell you more things to keep you occupied. There was a time when this name would have suit me. A dipsomaniac no better than the dirt he came from. Sobriety was a necessity. The blanket of shame lifted. The music started seeping back out of the chasm of my brain to peek at the sunlight. Stay sharp. Be aware of yourself and your body. Maynard was not lying when he told us our body is a temple. Simple pleasures, big outlooks. Love yourself and each other. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I'm always amazed by people that can use a 303. Love the sounds and the whole groove it brings to a song. So i put it in my head that i really should learn how to use it. i sold my hardware version of the synth so i just the mono-synth from logic that is basically the same idea. it went weirdly hardtech-like even though i have no idea what that really means. i think i just tried to channel my old days where i listened to old thunderdome cds in the car but now through the sense of me trying to make it work for me in 2026. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 8 - TheErinWaterShow - Metronome

Tue, 17 Feb 2026 06:02:03 GMT

Week 8/Song 6 (more fun with loops and discovering session player) - I started out this week attempting to finish a song I began almost 20 years ago (a love song that only one other person has heard what I have so far). I found myself becoming increasingly frustrated at myself for not being able to simply follow the clicks of a metronome. Timing and tempo are my nemesis, yet they are a pivotal part of making music. As I kept working at it I had the bright idea of adding a simple drum rhythm to help me out. Well, that lead me back into the rabbit hole of loops and sounds so I decided to go a different direction...after all, I already waited over 20 years to finish the love song so I figure I have at least 20 more to do so. AND that lead me to creating a song about not being able to find the beat and wanting to feel comfortable and at ease with the clicks of the metronome but instead feeling like it is a shackle...making me painfully aware that I can not find the beat. To my bandmates, I will keep trying to find it. Metronome Lyrics: I hear the beat in my head, yet I can’t seem to find the beat. That metronome keeps a swinging back and forth, but it don’t mean a thing to me. I don’t know what’s going on, why I hear this song. I can’t seem to figure out how to keep on beat, oh yeah. It keeps playing in my head, driving me insane. Playing round and round, but I can’t find my way. Where’s the beat? Where’s the beat? Where’s the beat? Where’s the beat? Where’s the beat? Where’s the beat? Where’s the beat? I can’t seem to find the beat! Oh metronome, why you foolin’ me? Steady. Steady. Steady. Time for me to breathe now. Steady. Steady. Steady. Time for me to listen. Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Find the beat! Oh metronome, why do you chain me? Oh metronome, I wish you were my home. Metronome 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 8 - prophisee - King

Mon, 16 Feb 2026 00:01:30 GMT

This week's topic was inequallity, how we always tend to only compare upward, and how generosity is difficult because time and rewards are seen as fragile and scarce. Did a crap ton of lyric ideation and not much fell out this week. Have been trying to share the whole process because this lyric stuff is hard... › lyrics‹ lyricsStuck in traffic Hot sunburn Sunglasses scratched Bed too firm Wi-Fis slow The tap smells bad Plastic beach Phone screen is cracked Funny how it all feels wrong Have things been right for way too long? All the hands you never see Keep things running quietly What does it mean, to live like a king? That shirts from a sweatshop Your drivers been at it since 4 Someone else makes the bed and cleans the floor Laundry comes back folded Coffee’s already poured Someone was here before you woke Wiping handles on doors What does it mean, to live like a king? My goal is to write better lyrics this year so I've been following the process and frameworks from Writing Better Lyrics by Pat Pattison. Started with ideation. › idea and narrative‹ idea and narrativeAbout inequality but especially how, despite that its most visible at the very top, also exists relatively at every level. This was particularly evident to me visiting bali but could be experienced many places. We always look up and want for more. Less often do we look down and appreciate what we have. Furthermore, its easy to point fingers upwards and say "they have so much they should give more away" and then use that as justification to forego similar generosity all the way down. Why are we so self-centered? Why is it hard to give back? I suppose its because the world is hard. When you never know if you might have some massive healthcare expense you can barely cover, its hard to justify generosity and almost everyone could find themselves in that situation or worse. each person weighs their own fleeting joys against the cost of giving. In a world where life feels uncertain and short, the temptation to guard what little comfort we have makes true generosity a hard, unfamiliar choice AI help distilling this: Inequality runs deeper than headlines or palaces; it’s mirrored in every rung, as each of us measures up, rarely down. We crave what’s out of reach and absolve ourselves, believing that generosity is a luxury for those above us, while fear and uncertainty make it hard to share from wherever we stand. At each rung, the core psychological brake on generosity is a mix of perceived scarcity and relative insecurity. People don’t measure generosity against absolute need, but against what they feel they might lose versus what they see others have. The instinct to self-preserve—fed by comparison, uncertainty about the future, and the deep-down worry that life’s rewards are finite and fragile—makes us frame giving as a personal risk rather than a communal act. In other words: what holds us back is not just anxiety, but the powerful sense that any comfort is precarious, and that we're always closer to falling behind than leaping ahead. Narrative I settled on: 1. First world problems 2. Reveal the invisible exploitation we take for granted › object writing‹ object writing wrote some but didn't really use it at all this week. Sometimes I have AI generate some as inspiration for things I've not personally experienced like living like actual royalty. I tried to imagine it and wrote my own first: Wake up to velvet in shades of lavender with gold trim. The light glistens through the stained glass and shines on the various set jewels. Upon rising, many muster to offload whatever efforts would add strife to your morning. The scent of fresh breakfast prepared over the rustling of the hired company behind the affair. Since the weather is good, the meal spread is enjoyed on the patio with a sweeping view of the immaculate grounds punctuated by grand columns that meet deep red tile. Then the AI's 1. The King The silk at the inside of his elbow is cool where the morning air finds it. Someone has already opened the shutters; the courtyard smells faintly of orange peel and wet limestone from the overnight rinsing. He tastes clove before coffee—someone burned incense too close to the dining hall again. A spoon rings lightly against porcelain as it’s set down in front of him; it’s never the same pitch twice. Leather creaks as he shifts on the cushioned bench. The upholstery sighs under weight it was made to remember. Beeswax and polish hang in the hallways, warm and sweet, fighting a losing battle with the sharper tang of ink drying somewhere nearby. A messenger’s boots drag dust across marble. He hears it before he sees it—the fine grit skittering in hesitant arcs. There’s a low murmur from the gardens where gardeners snap stems with thumbnail pressure, quick and clean. Metal glints through hedges as someone prunes. The sun reaches his knuckles before his face. It’s hotter than yesterday. At midday the crown leaves a shallow dent in the velvet stand when he sets it down. His scalp prickles with trapped heat. Wine smells like oak barrels and iron. Somewhere in the rafters a pigeon flaps once, twice, settling. Night comes with the scratch of a quill beyond a closed door. Someone coughs into a sleeve. 2. The Steward (Upper-Middle) He wakes before the bells and lies still, feeling the wool blanket itch at the back of his neck. The plaster above his bed has a hairline crack that smells faintly chalky when the room warms. The floor is cold through his socks, even in this season. Bread crust flakes onto the ledger when he eats standing up. Butter leaves a crescent moon on the margin of yesterday’s numbers. The window sticks before it opens; his palms pick up the faint resin smell from the frame. A cart rattles over cobbles below—he knows which one by the hollow knock of its loose wheel. Ink stains his middle finger no matter how often he washes it. Soap stings where the skin has split near the nail. The office carries a constant stew of parchment dust, sealing wax, and the ghost of last week’s lamp smoke. He straightens a stack of petitions until the edges align perfectly. They slide against each other with a dry whisper. Lunch is something salted. The chair complains when he leans back in it. He presses his tongue to a molar that’s begun to ache when the air turns cool in the afternoons. At dusk he oils the hinges himself. The rag comes away black. Someone is practicing lute in a distant room—slowly, the same phrase again and again. 3. The Servant The mattress is straw and it rustles like wind when he turns. His blanket smells faintly of the stable even after the washing. Dawn leaks in under the door before anyone speaks. Cold water shocks his wrists awake. The pump handle leaves a smear of rust on his palm. Soap is sharp and lye-bitter; it dries into a tight film across his knuckles. He carries the basin with both hands so it won’t slosh onto his shoes. The kitchen is steam and onion skins. Something sweet is baking but not for him. He learns the rooms by their temperatures—the east hall always warm first, the north corridor holding last night’s chill like a secret. Candles drip onto his fingers when he snuffs them too quickly. Wax cools into ridges he peels away later. His shoulders buzz by noon. Linen smells clean until it doesn’t. The broom’s bristles whisper against stone in a rhythm that doesn’t quite match his steps. Supper is thin and hot. He blows on it anyway. The spoon has a bend in it that presses against his lip each time. At night he listens to footsteps above him, then to the silence after they stop.

This probably could be an instrumental, but I might come back at this with sparse lyrics here and there. I'm hoping next week I come up with something SHORT.

Week 7 - evanericksonmusic - Dear Miss Takes

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:59:14 GMT

Three hours ago, I was saying the track I just submitted was something I was incredibly disappointed in. Then, I finished up a new track 5 min before the deadline. I like this one a lot more. I was trying to mess around with a more upbeat, pop style song, but it sounded too unfinished. This track uses a lot of pads and follows a spoken word poem read by my friend @esmod. Using lush pads and making ambience like this is still new to me, so it is a learning experience as well. I guess I am in a mellow mood right now and cannot force high octane action when I feel like this. Also my first time with an ipad for FX. It turned out awesome! Gotta submit now, on the minute! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - scy - The Mechanism

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:58:46 GMT

I've been playing Guild Wars 2 since 2017. Started it back in the day together with my partner, as a way to game and spend time together, explore a new world together. So much in this game reminds me of this person, so many things we did, but also so many things we were planning to do. One of the things we wanted to do together was to build a certain legendary weapon. However, we broke up last year. I couldn't find back into the game for months. So many memories. And each came with so much pain. I couldn't play, I couldn't have fun. This week, a friend's interest in playing the game with me brought me back into its world, and apparently I've healed enough to enjoy it once again. And I finished the legendary we'd been working on. Alone. It was a sad moment, but also a moment of closure, and also of triumph in a way. Triumph over the long and complicated crafting process, but also over the pain and grief. I'm dedicating this song to the people at ArenaNet, who created the fantasy world of Guild Wars with its deep lore and wholesome community. I plan to recreate this song at some point, fully fleshed out, and with a real electric guitar playing instead of a synth. Therefore this release is not called Astralaria, like the weapon I've crafted, but The Mechanism, which is the incomplete, raw, precursor weapon to Astralaria. Not sure whether this song is too boring for people, but this week I don't really care; I've made this for myself. To close a chapter, and to open another. Edit: Totally forgot to mention the relation the music has to GW2. This track is heavily inspired by Rata Novus, one of my favorite pieces of music from the game. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Going to come back and add some more words. Ha! I came back to edit this description ... and I added it all in a comment instead. So, down there, in the comments, look at that. That's what I had to say about this. I hope you are all as well as can be and that making music this week brought some happiness. ----- Updating again after uploading the Disquiet Junto version (https://on.soundcloud.com/eKECwSkKlolC5Sj2w0) I don’t really pay much attention or have any particular belief around the lunar new year, but it’s fun to learn about. Reasons to celebrate are always welcome! Here’s some info I found on the year of Fire Horse: Running from February 17, 2026, to February 5, 2027. Occurring once every 60 years (previously 1966), this rare year is characterized by intense energy, passion, and rapid transformation. It is known for fostering bold actions and independent, spirited, and sometimes volatile, outcomes. Key Characteristics and Predictions for 2026: Energy & Pace: The year is expected to be fast-paced, impulsive, and highly active. Symbolism: It symbolizes courage, ambition, and freedom, but may also bring challenges and volatility. Advice: Focus on strategy over impulse, as this high-energy year can lead to success or burnout. Cultural View: While sometimes seen as turbulent, it is also viewed as a time for significant, positive change. The last Fire Horse year was 1966, and the next will be 2086. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

I wrote this for Valentine’s Day after reflecting on why so many love themes in games and films feel bittersweet.

That complexity feels real to me, so I tried to bring that into this piece. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - laguna - Quimica

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:57:13 GMT

Hi Y'all. "Chemistry" is the word for this week. I don't really have a clear explanation for this one. This is a fusion of one stalled Behringer BR8 jam and some ambient sketches I made while experimenting with the old E-MU Emulator X sampler. Been busy fixing some stuff at home, and printing lots of supports and various mundane stuff I needed to improve my studio. Not much music making, yet a lot of studio improving. I arrived at Sunday evening with no clear idea, yet at the last moment I decided to fuse these two. I'm afraid they don't match and they sound super weird, and all because I couldn't find and amplitude follower in Ableton. The beat is modulating 2 vocoders with the piano track as carrier, while the same piano ambience goes out filtered (highpass) by the kick amplitude as sidechain control. Weird routing. I ran out of time to properly EQ the piano. I threw a whole drum buss on the master. Maybe it is a complete mess. Hope you find this chaotic jam somewhat enjoyable... and don't forget to be very happy this following 7 days. :) 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - horatiuromantic - Love is a wee beastie

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:54:03 GMT

I made this crazy banger of a song in two days! Yesterday I came up with the bassline and groove, and today I made the drums with the help of Levi the drummer, plus my hand-made fills and kick drum pattern, and some other tricks. I had to tell Levi to not play the kick, and I played it separately on a track. This way, it was in line with the bass, and thus more funky and tight. The bass is a fake moog, and the piano, clavi and strings are from the Korg SV-2S and my vocals, as you can see in the video. I wrote the lyrics inspired by Valentines day (I was home alone but it was nice) and some sci-fi I've been reading, where nanometer-sized robots were called "wee beasties". Love that expression! By the way, this morning I realized that I subconsciously ripped off the beautiful song Dear Limmetz by Azymuth, but since there are only so many basslines, I decided it's probably fine. The chords and melody are not the same, and they don't have lyrics anyway. I can recommend it, it's an incredible song! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3q7kcDgd7v4 About the process: I wanted to compose something more jovial again, and do my thing where I improvise lyrics. But still I wanted to continue playing bass and keys at the same time, maybe also singing - this was not possible. I cannot play this song yet with all 3 instruments ahhah. So I did a bass take, a keys take, and a vocal take. But at least those are one-takes! And I think it will be possible someday once I practice more! This song was also inspired by lots of japanese 70s and 80s funk pop, which I am so in love with for quite a few years. Check out Jiro Inagaki, Hiroshi Sato and more if you need recommendations. › Lyrics‹ Lyrics LOVE a most elusive microscopic creature one must be well attuned in order to sense its presence microbiologists have discovered it while studying an ooze left in its wake and a rosy afterglow.

Week 7 - 0x_colt - SULK

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:50:40 GMT

week 7, produced entirely on the dirtywave m8 tracker. › emotional dump‹ emotional dumpIn my personal life, I've always struggled with my mental health since my youth, but the past year and a bit have been particularly difficult for me. When I started writing this track a few days ago, I was in one of the darkest spots I've been in in a very long time. I couldn't come up with anything because I was so depressed, but I came across a sample just titled "sulk" while aimlessly scrolling through my M8 that sparked some inspiration. I decided to use it as an opportunity to showcase a bit of how I feel sometimes, and how a lot of us probably feel sometimes. The calm, the rise, the panic, the blitz of tears, the interlude, the second blitzing, and so on. I know that "sulking" is probably not the right word for it, but it felt appropriate given the circumstances. This song is a sulking session. A panic attack.

Week 7 - RPLKTR - Seven Dualisms

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:49:40 GMT

I welcome all critical feedback. Can relicense if you're interested, just ask. Seventh week, so the track's 7/4. It is composed of seven phrases of seven bars each. I'm strongly partial to the TR-707 drum sounds and that would fit the "seven" theme perfectly as well, but no! This time I remembered about the first digitally-programmable drum machine in history, the Roland CR-78 and decided to do something with that. It also happens that the Disquiet Junto ran the 737th prompt this week as well and the theme was "filling the listener with anticipation" through percussion. So now this song is my entry there, too. Lucky coincidence! › Lyrics‹ Lyrics better good than evil better evil than afraid better safe than sorry better sorry than dead better calm than worried better worried than caught unprepared better restrained than paranoid better paranoid than naive when they come to take you they won't care what you believe better evil than dead better sorry than dead better worried than dead better paranoid than dead › Technical musings‹ Technical musings While I don't have access to a CR-78, I thought surely my desert-island worthy Analog Rytm must be able to replicate those sorts of sounds convincingly, right? So this week's wild card was sitting with Ableton Live and creating a kit inspired by TR-78 using Analog Rytm's analog engines. No samples! For reference I used Ableton's bundled CR78 samples and I got pretty close with every sound in isolation... but when I listened to the kit playing actual sequences, I decided to tweak things a bit to sit better as a cohesive sound. In the end I can't say we're in clone territory, but neither is my Analog Rytm-powered TR-707 kit, and I honestly believe that one sounds better than the original. Jury's out on whether my CR-78 kit will need further tweaks, but I like the end result, and despite differences the feel of the original machine is definitely still there. And yes, I'm fully aware of the irony of tuning my analog machine to sound like digital samples found in a DAW. But the result is that I now have a new tweakable analog drum kit. ··· 120 BPM 7/4, E-major. Subharmonicon bass. Osmose pads. Yamaha Revstar rhythm guitar. Analog Rytm drums.

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:47:51 GMT

This one went down to the wire but was really fun to compose. It started with no drums until the last 5 minutes, felt the TR8 might be able to add some punch. I like the way this turned out. As always, there are some synths and cello through the microcosm. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:47:13 GMT

They're waiting for you, but not for what you've got. Almost 100% modular, just MPC for the mix and some FX. Did it this way because I have to pack up to move, so I won't see the modular for a while. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Tomatron.Jones - Bass and Synth Thing #2

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:45:40 GMT

Yet more practice on the bass and synth to simple drum kick patterns. Here I'm using a Moog Subphatty for both synth bass and lead, playing the p-bass to the kick from a few Splice drum samples, and also adding arps and chords from the Korg Minilogue. I did't have much time but was able spend some time editing the rough scratch bass recording to lock in a bit better with the kick. And I've been experimenting with layered drums, so mixing a 'live' drum sample (from Splice) with kick and snare hits for a bit more impact. * Drum samples from Splice (loops and snare / kicks from The Midnight sample pack) * Moog Subphatty for synth bass and lead * Korg Minilogue for chords and arp * Generic P-Bass recorded through Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 * Transit, Valhalla plugins * Gullfoss and Ozone Elements 10 for mastering Total Time: ~3.5 hours 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - brian botkiller - Feel Listen Touch

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:45:02 GMT

Going back to progressive house/techno this week, a genre that is really close to my heart. Pretty heavily inspired by John Digweed and Paul Van Dyk. Likely will need a little more polish but I like what I have here right now. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - onezero - Starling Dodd

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:44:45 GMT

This week I'd had the thought of doing a very sparse, Feldman-inspired piece, and very quickly tried some barre chords out under the sparse guitar that transformed the piece into instrumental power pop. Whoops. Guitar: home-built Res-O-Glas, which probably could use a touch of truss-rod loosening: a couple of these notes (7th and 9th frets, 3rd and 4th strings) are getting a little buzzy. I have three tracks: one for neck pickup, one for bridge, and one for both. All of them are going through the JHS Colourbox 10. This guitar has Lace Alumitone P90s, and is semi-hollow, so there's a particular sonic profile going on, especially when it's direct. It sounds a bit better through the Colourbox. There's the usual touch of convolution reverb send and eq/compression on the mix. The title comes from the elevation of Starling Dodd in the Lake District, which has an elevation of 633 m. Apparently it's a bit hidden, so not much visited. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - BTS - Meridian Dreams

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:42:38 GMT

I am continuing my work with combining my stretching techniques with Berlin School sequencing. I started with a MIDI chord sequence that I tweaked, then stretched in Reason. I dupicated the sequence to add an additional pad track at a lower octave. I then combined these into their own output bus for mixing. For my sequences, I took the same sequence and found different synths(one with arpeggio, the other I added a Quad Note generator and a Pulsar to modulate the parameters) and built the arrangement using volume automation. Finally, I built a bass sequence by using a Baseline Generator and a Monotone synth. After adding delays and other effects to the Insert Effects on the channels, I added Mixer Effects (Two Reverbs) and set up the other Automations. I finally EQ'd and mastered the track. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 7 - jegasus - Such a Waste

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:42:33 GMT

Well hello there!!! Thank you so much for stopping by and giving my weird tune a listen! This one doesn't have any lore to it because it came together VERY much at the last minute. Once again, I did not have all that music-making time this week, so I arrived on Sunday empty handed. Just a few hours before the due time, I joined the M8 Discord chat and, with some help from Dustsucker, I managed to get this thing out. It's called "such a waste" because I really like the build-up, but given my time constraint, I felt like I didn't get much of a chance to really explore it more and use that juicy drop goodness, so instead of allowing myself to feel frustrated, I just made myself laugh and started using meme samples instead, hahahaha... And yes, it is Taco Bell. It's just pitched down a bit. Oh, also: apologies to folks for not leaving any comments this past week. I just had some other life and community organizing stuff going on this week, so my music time was really cut short. Also, I've been trying to spend more time with my banjo, which has also been taking up bigger chunks of my time. Maybe I'll be able to incorporate it in a Weekly Beats... Who knows... Anyways, thanks for being such a cool community and leaving such kind comments on my songs, I really appreciate y'all <3 Cheers, folks!!!

Week 7 - mzunguko - X

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:42:27 GMT

› Show Spoiler‹ Hide SpoilerBit of a spell on the struggle bus, the mix is loose, the drums aren't exactly what I wanted, too much noise in the recording, my list of things that didn't go as planned is endless this week. It seems like nothing could go right this week, I left many ideas on the cutting room floor then rushed at the end to get something "done". There are some things I like, really like the opening guitar tone for example. I might switch things up this week and stay in the box to give myself some grace and break from trying to get all the guitar stuff fitting as I imagine it. Or just stop complaining and recognize that its all part of the process Week 7 is done, and that is a positive thing! In Lak'ech _mzunguko 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:38:45 GMT

I was running low on time this week. So I made this cinematic little cue in about 4 hours. It probably has more reverb than is good for it. Didn't have time for a proper mix. And the composition is a bit more ambient than I would like it to be. But time ran out, so it is what it is.

Week 7 - Continuous Nonlinearities - Sensual insects

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:36:55 GMT

Kind of a cacophony, the synth chords needed to be rerecorded but I refused, and the bass needed to be baked longer but I refused, and I needed to meld everything into a whole a little better but I refused, and I needed to come up with a title but I mostly refused. Prophet 6, more Prophet 6, Kinotone Ribbons, Bass VI, Chase Bliss Clean, Digitakt drums, a little too much Death By Audio Rooms that I tried to strangle with Chase Bliss Lossy, Montreal Assembly PurPLL, and honestly I forget if there was anything else. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Homeostatic - Rapid Debris

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:36:21 GMT

On Monday my little idea-hat gave me the challenge to make what I initially thought you guys meant by "speed-trash", somthing at a very high tempo with a ton of distortion. I noodled around on the modular for a bit but didn't find anything I really clicked with. Then the rest of the week happened. Today I finally had some more time for music and I'm in a very different mood than I was on monday, so I basically redid everything from scratch. Everything started coming together when I loaded up a piano patch on the hydrasynth and cranked the reverb. In the end I sort of like the thing I made. It became a bit more breakcore than I was expecting but that is a genre I would really like to experiment more with. I think If I had endless time and energy This track could use some more tweaking, maybe a proper bassline, maybe some vocals or I was even thinking about doing some moody spoken word stuff. :) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

A return to the most basic OPL1 2-OP synth with only sine waves. Gave myself about 3 hours to make sounds and sequence it. Definitely need to spend more time on mapping out arrangements so the song is more interesting, but I'm happy with the percussion patterns and some of the sounds I was able to make with a pretty bare bones FM synth. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 7 - uhhuh_absolutely - Rain-slick

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:24:24 GMT

Let's go week 7! It's be a slightly damp one over here in California, nice to sit inside and work on this on a rainy Sunday. Another one started on the M8 and then fleshed out in Ableton with a sprinkling of sax. I put together an OMX-27 kit that I just got recently and hoped to use it in its M8 macro mode to record a live arrangement with muting/soloing and improv on top, but opted to arrange in Ableton instead. Maybe next week! Stoked for the live potential. Noticing this one ended up with a similar vibe to my week 4 submission. I had a brief moment of worry that it was a little too similar, but it's also fun to see what I gravitate to as I repeat this process. Now that this is done, it's time for me to CAD up a little stand for my M8! Been wanting a good way to prop it up on my desk and it's time to put my 3D printer to work. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Dan - WB2607 - Cloudy Day

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:24:19 GMT

1. M8 generates random midi phrase. Audition a few until you like one 2. Send midi to external synth (Reface CS), get audio back, record into new instrument 3. Normalize, trim midi stutter at beginning 4. Change Reface settings, recording again 5. Repeat steps 2-4 until have 6 version of same riff 6. Apply effects, EQ and panning to all 6 instruments to taste. 7. Set each track to repeat the same phrase many times at a slow tempo for a ~2 minute duration 8. Set all track volumes to 0 on the mixer 9. Create a new track that controls the volumes of the 6 voices; fade in, out and mix to taste 10. Swap out the repeated phrases for an empty phrase because you originally recorded longer than one chain's worth of audio and you want to use it for it's subtle variations 11. Realize the instruments drop out because the audio isn't looping. Switch all instruments from single shot playback to forward loop. The mixed lengths of the records causes them to loop back to the beginning at different times. Happy accident!. 12. Accidentally set one of the tracks to reverse loop. Another happy accident, add it later on to taste. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Saguaro Gigante - The Aspen Cliffs

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:21:48 GMT

This week’s submission is basically a phone recording haha. I drove out to the mountains near me on Saturday to this overlook. It’s a really nice spot with aspens and pine trees and you can see for miles into the valley. I brought my guitar and mandolin with me, but didn’t anticipate that it might be too cold right now to hang outside. Luckily the mandolin is so small that I can sit in the front passenger seat with it and look out the windows while playing. This recording is a section of a much longer improvisation that happened. I took the section that sounded the most cohesive. There are some good parts at the beginning and end of the original, but the whole thing was 13 minutes long! Hoping to find time to sit down and sort of arrange it. I liked this recording though because it will probably never sound this way again. Was hoping to do some editing on it EQ wise, but I’m away from the house today so the raw audio will have to do. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:15:38 GMT

We get closer and closer to the deadline every week, and this week was hell. Retro Deep House part deux with a healthy dose of Chicago and a nod to Green Velvet. Continuing my "Love, Sex and Longing in the Void" space-music-deep-house-dub-techno theme, the vibe here is a little dark, the vocal a little ... simple-but-does-the-trick, but it'll get ya groovin'. › If you'd like a little taste of Green Velvet and Chicago house...‹ If you'd like a little taste of Green Velvet and Chicago house... Green Velvet - Flash Defected Records - Chicago House DJ Mix Mother Desiccant on House Music This was made on the Dirtywave M8, with a guest performance from Grandmother - something the M8 excels at is sampling, not only just using samples, but editing, processing and recording. It's weird and amazing that I can plug the M8 into an audio-in from Grandmother and multisample that synth, process the samples, and use them in a song faster than I could if it were hooked up to my DAW on PC. And thus, I multisampled a gigantic three-octave, 8 note chord from the Grandmother, merged all the individual note samples together on the M8 (which uses 32 bit float processing so no need to worry about clipping during this process), and make a GIGANTIC MEGA Fmin7+9 PAD which features extensivelyly in this track. It was super fun and sounds amazing. Also featured is some new methods of making complex evolving dub-chords on the M8 (or any sampler) that was quite fun, basically just recording a nice long chord-pad using wavetables and filters etc... and then modulating the start point on the M8. Every chord is a little different. And then last, my fave Green-Velvet-inspired distorted bass features during the breakdown. This was something I made using the macrosynth in the M8 and I think it sounds awesome. I should stop talking before I hit the deadline lol. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Experimenting with AUM on iPad. ZOA for initial midi generation, routed into Retro Piano and with multiple effects processing audio in the app Glitchcore. There are also 2 instances of Decent Sampler receiving midi from ZOA, one using David Hilowitz’s Casio MT-70 and processed with multiple layers in MFX motto. The other using his chromaplane samples. Spacewalk midi generation sending to Sunrizer. Is it a song? Maybe…. Did I learn something along the way? Yes!

This almost feels like two disparate ideas, but I like how they go together. As is my MO, I want to get some lyrics on this at some point, but I don't have any as of now. I also think I want to lose the synth bass and play bass guitar down the road. Can use some more mixing as well. Came up with the idea on guitar (GUITAR GANG RISE UP!), built the rhythm and synths on the m8, recorded into Ardour on my Ubuntu rig. Thanks for all the feedback everyone so far this year.

I didn't have much time or energy to spare this week. Luckily I had another half-finished track which was a good fit for the week. Faded lights flickered and sputtered as dark clouds rolled across the sky. Rain washed down the streets but only left them filthier than before. To the east, there should be light, but there was only gloom. The umbrella kept his head dry, but not his soul. Eyes downturned, one foot ahead of the other, he trudged forward.

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:05:22 GMT

Whoa! This song is not what I would call finished! But it's in an okay state, and that is something haha. I guess you could say making 4-bit samples the centerpiece of my current working mode is sort of experimental music. Sometimes things just don't work at super low bit rates. I try a lot of things before latching on to something that clicks, and this week started with me spinning my wheels. The first couple of days I spent fruitlessly trying to make samples of Mussorgsky's "Night on Bald Mountain" work in a sort of 90s big-beat/The Prodigy/drum n bass thing. Except it was going to be on gameboy. In my head it sounded so cool. No matter what I tried, the samples just sounded like trash though, and I wasn't inspired by them. I went back to the drawing board and sat down at the piano and noodled for a day or so. On Thursday this was some chords and a recording of me singing a few lines into my phone lol. But it came together and I got something working. Today (Sunday) I took my son to a marathon 4-hour children's birthday pool party Sunday and had four hours to work on this and was able to finish. So here is a recording straight off the gameboy shortly after a kids birthday party haha. It's not what I'd call finished. Needs tweaking and detail work at the least.

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:01:19 GMT

Week 7! It's pretty wild to me that I made it this far. Things are starting to feel a little easier. Listening to all the music on here is so humbling and inspiring. While I don't have much experience writing lyrics or singing, I wrote a free-form poem to to accompany this piece. › Confused Sand (Poem)‹ Confused Sand (Poem) These days, we are surrounded by confused sand We dig it out of the earth melt it into trillions of intricate connections join it to metals wrap it in plastic run electricity through it throw it into massive "data" centers put shiny screens on it call it "intelligent" "magic" in the end it's still just sand. Don't let the sand-worshipping ghouls tell you otherwise › Production Notes‹ Production Notes This week I'm continuing with my experimental streak. Although I set the bpm to 156, this probably plays out as more of a 78bpm track. I learned about exponential rhythms and tried to recreate them on the m8. Although I didn't quite land where I wanted, I did arrive at a fun modulated trance-gate thing. A lot of this was inspired by another sketch I made a while ago where, midway through the song, I accidentally set the tempo to 10bpm and it made everything sound unhinged.

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 23:00:46 GMT

I knew that I wanted to make a track in LSDj this week but I didn't really know what I wanted to make. I started over multiple times, and it wasn't until I went with a cheesy octave bass line out of frustration that the rest of the track started to come together :) My goal was to experiment and learn more about LSDj, and I think I succeeded with that. NOTE: I lost a couple of hours of work when I attempted to make a track on my DMG for WB 2024. That was in the back of my head this whole week, hence the name ;) 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - MaisieMarra - blood moon

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:51:24 GMT

sometimes when i don't know where to start, i just mix two genres together and see what happens. i tried to mix the doomgaze stuff i did in an earlier week with some trap and it sort of works? i don't absolutely love this, i think it was really hard to mix/master and it came out a bit messy, but there is something cool about it. the supersaw really went a bit witchhouse too. the original concept of maisie marra, before it was even called that, was supposed to be 50% witch house, so it's sort of a return to origins this week in a twisted way. i liked the low and high line vocal harmony thing on the verses too, tried to make something sound like a witch chant. only started this one on Saturday because my earlier attempts this week suckeddddd, so it's a lil short but it is what it is it's been a tough week, just trying to keep my head up with it <3 season 5 of riverdale was absolute bust to be honest, but season 6 has captured my love once again. i wrote this one is for Abigail Blossom, the dead witch relative of Cheryl who wants to destroy the town of riverdale. much love queen, do ur thing <3 shout out my friend Max for the sexy vocal sample too. BET. lyrics: I’ll make you eat those words   if it’s, the last thing I do  too long without being heard  but I’ve been screaming for you    x2 cursed them with my last breath  now I’m back from the dead   they watched me burn to death  i’ll watch the streets run red  a blood moon in the sky  you won’t get out alive  take one more look at the light  it’s a beautiful night  x2 cursed them with my last breath  now I’m back from the dead   they watched me burn to death  i’ll watch the streets run red  2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - SQF - warm sunshine - W7

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:49:58 GMT

I opted for no guitar or video this weekend to enjoy more of that warm February sunshine and shorts weather in Denver. Digitone 2 with help from the gs music e7, sub37 and perfourmer. This is one I had kicking around but unfinished. I dig how it turned out, feel like it builds, takes you somewhere, repeats enough but not too much. Thanks again for your comments!

Week 7 - geopet - Sunday's Trepidation

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:45:45 GMT

This is still me coming back to the Digitone II, and working on some ambient. I'm not exactly where I want to be, but the exploration has been enjoyable. This track took place over two sessions. The first put down the first layer of the song that you will hear at the start, the second added the flavor. There are no presets used here, which is 90% of the challenge of using the DN, and most of the fun as well. Thanks for listening. <3 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - Coldsushi - Fate

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:45:33 GMT

The zipper bass has returned Usually I'm putting the idea down on tuesday and then complete the track on sunday, it kind of works but I feel like I need at least another day in between to experiment with the core idea more and find variations earlier, let's see how next week goes. Nothing too specific for this one, just keep grinding, I really want to experiment more for next week and go a bit more melodic and no so aggressive, something more musical maybe? ahahah I have some videos saved about other genres to inspire me during the week which helps a lot to keep the momentum!

Hey everyone! :) My personal lesson of the week: It’s not a workflow improvement when you reduce your preset selection to just 10 random preset swaps per sound element, only to end up with a pile of fragments that barely fit together. Anyway, here’s my entry for this week! Enjoy! ;) Cheers KaZu P.S.

Yaaay! What a week. I release MGenBend my M4L midi unit + made videos blabla for all the marketing stuff, I mean, in order to let people understand what it does + trailer etc. So I had about two tracks to work on. I choose this one and I'm happy with it. It demonstrate pretty well with no exaggeration how I can add some little groove to my tracks. And of course it demonstrates how I can exaggerate :D I also lived some crazy things personally. And went to the cinema to watch Inherent Vice by Paul Thomas Anderson and it was dope! Pun intended.

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:26:21 GMT

This is just a noise track. Although I have not uploaded anything since Week 3, I have been working on WBs every week. They just weren't up to my (experimental, everchanging) standards. They say that when you create music you are responding to all the audio you've ever heard before. Well, there is a lot of stuff going on in the world in general. So, this week, I let myself essentially experience an incontinence of consciousness and just do a noise track. This submission will literally serve as fertilizer for my next few weeks of material, similar to e.g. how my Week 1 submission was reworked for my Week 2 submission. "Stems" are here: Google Drive folder EDIT 2/19/26: My laptop's CPU finally crapped out so idk when I'm gonna be able to get back to making music. Maybe i'll just do some unplugged stuff if i can't get this issue fixed within 2 weeks. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:22:51 GMT

Pretty abrasive this time, so watch your volume. Noisy speedtrash made in 2.5 hrs on a Dirtywave M8, with a bit of bongos. ~~ This was...not what I planned to make at the start of the week. Originally, I had been working on some weird, groovy, psychedelic idea. Unfortunately, it relied on a copyrighted drumbreak, which I was not able to recreate successfully I got mad. So I decided to make something loud and aggro and entirely percussion-based. There's a Wavsynth sine kick I made and some bongos I played. The rest are all found sounds: kicking a metal trash can, the clink of candleholders, a saucepan of water, faucet drips, and a scream (mine) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Had the bass line a couple of weeks ago and kept struggling with what to do with it. More guitar tracks this week as I experimented with layered effects on separate tracks for different parts.

Week 7 - franky - Heliopause

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:16:33 GMT

Made it to week 7! I had a lot of help from my girlfriend writing the melody to Heliopause, that will be used as an intro to a full song I sketched out this week, I then plugged the melody into instruments and did my thing. Check back next week (week 8) for the drop. We watched "Together" last night and it was a pretty good movie, we laughed at how the male character is this lack luster musician who hasn't done anything in a decade and when he is trying to learn his bands music his gf always pops up like "hey watcha doin'?" I joked that I was "watching my downfall" haha. Also have been watching DB Super and we laughed at episode #17, how chichi is reluctant to goku going off to train on lord beerus planet. My gf said "thats how I am when you go to make your music". Its healthy to laugh at silly love stuff that's relatable.

Week 7 - ViridianLoom - Pick a lane!

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:16:26 GMT

Critique is welcome on this tune since it's supposed to be a part of an album release at some point. Actually, if anyone is interested in helping me out with mastering stuff down the line, that would be massively appreciated. I really want to try getting the production right. This is a tune I originally wrote and submitted to weeklybeats back in 2022 (Originally called Pick a side!), but I always felt like it needed some extra oomp and pizazz in some way. And since I've been sitting on the idea of releasing a digital fusion record for a minute now, I figured why not knock out these songs one at a time for my weeklybeats? Kind of gives me a nice mental break from feeling like I got to work on something brand new every week. I still *am* writing new stuff, but I've been all about taking it slow lately. So I kind of have this processing where I'm trying to work on multiple things at a time so I can still productively say I finished something every week. I'm pretty happy with how this one sounds now, as it doesn't feel as pointlessly repetitive as it once did. I still got quite a few more to work on, but I'm going to try avoiding uploading them *unless* they had a significant overhaul. I think that keeps things in the spirit of what we're trying to do here. Oh, and if anyone knows any labels that I could reach out to for this kind of digital fusion stuff, let me know. I tried Ubiktune and C-jeff praised the songs I showed him but he said the label was closing down (RIP to a legendary label). Then I tried Infloresce Records at his suggestion but I never heard back from em. After the release of my other album, I really don't want to go the self-promo route. › Compositional Notes‹ Compositional Notes Super long and detail notes section. Might be cool for those who are interested in this stuff, but again, this can be pretty useful for me in the future if I wanted to come back and read details. DISCLAIMER: I have no formal education with music theory, I just watch Adam Neely videos. The reason for the name was kind of a joke to myself because, when I originally wrote the tune, I found the back and forth between a straight 6/8 feel into these triplet breaks with notes outside of C major sounded erratic and probably disrupts the listener's sense of rhythm and key. So in the back of my mind I felt this self-criticism of "Either play in a consistent time signature, or stay in C major. PICK A LANE, DUDE". But fuck it, I'm gonna zig-zag. Anyways, structurally, this song has two main sections that I'll just refer to as A and B. The first half of the song (0:00 - 1:14) has A -> B with some small developments like a melody being introduced after some repetition and a bass line that evolves in complexity, then a 3 bar transition (1:14 - 1:22) signals an intended ramp up in intensity, where we then return back to the A -> B structure but distortion on the synths and re-written drum parts to drive more energy. During this second half I also brought in some guitars for some necessary chugs and lead lines to layer over new synth melodies. Section A There's a lot of switch ups in the time signatures on this track. Section A is probably the most complex part and I don't know, from a theorist's perspective, which way to write it would be more broadly accepted. Here's some sheet music to make it easier to describe what i'm talking about. The first two rows show bars 21 and 24 as being notated in 2/8 and 2/4 with all the notes within being triplets. The last two bars show an alternate way of writing it out using metric modulation where bars 27 and 30 switch to a dotted quarter note feel. Personally, I count it with metric modulation because that just feels right to me, so I'd probably write it out that way. If irrational time signatures were more widely accepted, my preferred way to describe it would be calling those bars 3/6 and 3/3 respectively, but that would probably piss off some theorists, lol. Section B It just alternates between 4/4 and 7/8. This is a pretty classic approach from Metallica who frequently chopped or added an eighth note on their riffs. They're probably the main reason I do that so much, because honestly, I actually never really think of time signatures until after the fact. I try to avoid doing it too much because I don't want the music to feel fiddled with, as if I'm *trying* to make it weird for the sake of it. I actually find it way cooler to write something that sounds like it would be odd-time but it's actually 4/4 (Drumbender is a pro at this). Transition/Key This song C major, but when the metric modulation occurs I'm playing notes from Eb diminished so I *think* I'm borrowing from C minor? That same chord gets used in Section B. Then, because I didn't want to song just to be A -> B -> A -> B, I wanted to wedge some kind of transition between them and THAT’S why I have so many notes this week about this song, lol. I started writing everything out in guitar pro to analyze what was happening and how I might develop the tune. At first, I started making the transition overly complicated and too short and realized that maybe hammering away on some chords for an extended length of time would better guide the listener’s ear back to section A. Plus it added some stability away from the shifting time signatures. I wish I could describe how I chose these chords for the transition, but it was a lot of guess work and I don’t know why it works other than the fact that it leans into dark chord tones before gradually brightening towards that opening F note in section A. Here are the chords, the ones wrapped in parenthesis are the chords before and after the transition. (Eb°) → B♭m7 → Gmaj7 → G9 → (Cmaj7sus4/F..?) 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

a few months ago i was in dublin hanging out with hexosphere, Maisie Marra and infotoxin. on one of the nights we worked on music i made this little ambient thing on my m8 and named the project file “30 sec cry”, tammy asked if she could give it a try and wrote a melody pattern that sounds so unmistakably like her. this morning i woke up and remembered this song and worked on it for a few hours and now it’s called “cry more”. i love my friends and hope we get to make more music soon <3 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Good that I managed to finish something, but due to other projects this might be my lowest time spent on a track so far.

Week 7 - ModuLoBro - A Little Guitarthis

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:11:00 GMT

Further adventures with the Deluge, and per the title, Guitar + Catharsis. Looping! Never, not once, used the Looping features on the Delly til the other day. I didn't bother setting up a foot pedal to control it, but should've. Some of my playing is shite because I was preoccupied with reaching over to end the phrase on time. Still fun tho. The parts heard up til the drums come in were all using the looping feature. The panned build-djent guitars, I added in Arranger view, which lets you record freely over the whole arrangement. Drums and tambourine are just Apple Loops, but exactly the vibe I had in mind. Ha - when I got the Delly, I bought two 256GB SD cards for it and, among other things, threw large portions of the Apple Loops library on there. Handy. At some point I want to do some things closer to the range of San Holo and Fred Again..; I love San Holo's use of guitar and piano (especially his remixes for the Calm app), and I love Fred Again..'s use of voice recordings in Actual Life.... Porter Robinson... but, gah, A.G. Cook... anyway... This week it felt good to rock out a little. Due to some unexpected eldercare duties and WATCHING CURLING, I spent the least time on this one of any of them, but I still really like it. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Was feeling quite inspired by Skee Mask's new release this week and wanted to try something a little groovier, but still with those vaguely melancholic pads. Was really struggling with it yesterday as it was a bit too clean and polished but managed to wrestle it back into a murkier territory again. Possibly I went too far in the other direction but must wrap up as I promised my wife we'd watch more Fallout before bed.

This is Speedtrash, at least in spirit. Started the day with nothing, but at least spent the full day on it. Since the deadline was tight, I decided it's a good opportunity to learn an entirely new DAW as well - Everybody say Hi to my first Bitwig project, yay! Still need to figure out the best recording workflow, but it already works pretty well. Big fan of Bitwigs Clip-Launcher/Arranger concept, but I need more time to figure out all the devices. It's a super deep, powerful piece of software, but some rather basic things can turn out to be a little tedious (i.e. sample slicing). But I had fun playing bass, guitar and singing the Doo Doos. I'm heading into a stretch of maybe 6 weeks where I'll have even less time, so I'm glad I took this opportunity to spend a day on Bitwig before being confined to using the M8 on train rides and commutes again. The thing that threw me off the most was the availabilty of utility-type sounds, meaning especially ear candy, impacts and the like. Not having made music on my PC for such a long time it was kinda tedious to rediscover my sample library, whereas on the M8 I know what to do and what to pick very quickly. But who has time to reorganize their hard drive am I right 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 7 - zpeisman - Business as Usual

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 22:02:18 GMT

What I learnt from WB24, is to take a break when inspiration doesn't strike (in order to not end up in the backwater with no drive to start a proper tune). So last week I made nothing, except doing some adjustments to the track from the week before. So much for being a song ahead early on. Anyway, this week it was back to solving a brand new musical sudoku on the old Game Boy. I will need some distance to this one to know whether it is well adjusted, or if my mind just adjusted to it during the process. At least it was a fun process. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 21:52:27 GMT

You get beamed up. A tentacled alien hands you a beer, and takes you on a ride around the moon. If you can get past the intro, where I jammed everything from the cutting room floor, I promise there's some semblance of a song in here. :) There's some weird things here for me here, alien aside. The drum beat is only a kick for the entire song! Intentionally trying to get more treble. Retro sounds shouldn't mean no high frequencies IMHO. Mix is super lazy though and all over the place. Weird vocal bit is a new thing for me. I tried to make the beat like a heartbeat kinda at one point. I initially started with the idea to make something super sub-bassy, like Lorn, then wrote this Doom-like synth bass line and failed to get a good guitar-amp style distortion on it... but I just kept rolling with it and seeing where it took me. It's all very late-night-stream-of-consciousness music writing and production here. But that's what I love about Weekly Beats - it teaches you to just accept and keep moving forwards with what you write! It's great habit for getting stuff done and the act of forcing you through the entire start-to-finish process teaches you more than you would get out of obsessing over little details and never finishing a track. (My HDD is full of those lol, as I'm sure everyone here's is too.) Next week, maybe I'll write about The One Beer Rule™️ that I have for finishing WB tracks. That is, if the alien brings me back. :) p.s. bitwig rendering is single-threaded? what year is this??? 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

I wanted to make sure I didn't have any loops running through the entire song (something I feel I've been suffering from lately), so I purposefully removed them when it felt right. Got pretty far on the verse vibes, then created a chorus. Wasn't big enough, so the baritone guitar came to save the day. Really getting into mics and using physical amps. And needed that angel chorus at the end to close it out. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 21:37:56 GMT

This one started as a no-input mixing/feedback jam. There were some interesting sounds, but I wanted it to feel more imposing, so I turned it into a generative Dirtywave M8 patch that chops, smashes, and smears the original recording with plenty of delay, reverb, and OTT. Added a some bass synths and cyberpunk drums for a bit more variety. The reverb EQ and shimmer amount are randomised with internal midi. There's also a B section it can randomly wander into for some four-on-the floor action. › List of gear for the feedback jam‹ List of gear for the feedback jamLoooooooop: - Phonic MU1202 mixer - Industrialectric 4046-M (PLL noise machine) - Drolo Twin Peaks (tremolo) - Dr Scientist Atmosphere (reactive reverb) - Hologram Electronics Chroma Console (drive, flanger, delay and glitches) - Drolo Stretch Weaver (stretched and weaved with drumbreaks from Pikocore XL) Back into the mixer to close loop.

Week 7 - wangus - scup, aka porgy

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 21:30:27 GMT

dub wub i just wanted to make something dubby. i need practice. i feel like i def sharpened some skills on FM wubs, but didn't build much on the drums side of things. They work OK enough here, but it's not anything special. dunno how to navigate the layers and patterns well yet. everything is M8 synthesized, mostly FM. the snare came out pretty neat i think. the approach was A>B+C+D algo, started with op D with NBP noise bandpass. with high resonance and some fast ratio modulation, i could get both a snare body hit and an airy tail from the single op. then 3 more operators gave a lot of room to flesh it out. re: the wubs: one key learning was modulating operators with separate (same-rate) LFOs, with a phase offset between them. it can just hit harder, more character, with the skewed interaction between the modulations. and you can get especially interesting variations by tweaking the rate of just one of them. also, table modulation of operator ratio can be neat. regular LFO doesn't work great because the pitch goes atonal, but you can table modulate to harmonic steps. that's what's going on in the middle variation section. another m8 sound design hack: you probably know about making chords with the FM synth, where you put a different MOD to each one's pitch, so you can have 4-note chords in one track. but that limits timbre options (one operator per voice). but if you sacrifice 1 voice, you can have one modulator on the top note of the chord (A>B+C+D). and that can trick the ear, if it's fast it sounds like 3 full voices, even though the lower two don't have modulators. anyway, a pretty quick week this one. some good practice, not a deep track overall, but fun. -------------- some more post-thoughts the fluttery blip wash was fun to make. i programmed 15 steps in a table, then futzed around shifting octaves of steps until it sounded like a loop (initial pass involuntarily had some overall contour, so it felt like a jump when it looped to the start). then on another track in the table, i had a different-length loop of MULT modulation (wavesynth). so that adds harmonic stepping on top. and some interesting interactions came out. makes me think of kursa stuff. esp. waerbl. the final chords are FM, though they sound very flutelike (think macrosynth). the blown timbre comes from a NBP operator with mid-high resonance, tuned to unison with the proper oscillators. the m8 engine tracks the filter reasonably to note. you wouldn't notice unless you had an exceptional ear, but the chords are a bespoke intonation. i solo'd the top and bottom voices of the chords, and finetuned the upper voice's scale notes in order. the inner voices use the same tuning, and it worked out to a coherent intonation. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 21:25:10 GMT

Back after the first (but likely not last) skipped year this week. I wrote this pretty early into 2025 and have tried recording with varying degrees of production/instrumentation, definitely some analysis paralysis. Some of these versions felt a bit "over handled" but I liked having a bit of electric guitar and double tracking. Started fresh this week and ended up here. › Lyrics‹ Lyrics Hold this feeling, wish on a star To carve forever into your heart Cameras capture, but can’t hold How a good laugh makes you feel far away from home Lonely sunrise, me and the moon Tired horizon, we’ll see it soon Feel a sliver of certainty Feel around for all the good things that you cannot see Though I’d never wander far Great migration into your arms You were laughing, ’til you cried You were feeling all the hours, feeling everything 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

This week I played three live songs with three different groups, so I did get a good amount of music output through my system this week and very happy with the week overall. As of submission time, I can hear the mix isn't great, but I got stuck in circles trying to fix it, seems I'm too biased and fatigued to fix it effectively. Seems like everything is too loud in its own way but can't articulate it beyond that or seem to be able to make it better atm, my ears need to rest. Comparing it to other tracks, it seems okay but I'm a little fatigued and don't think other tracks sound great either. I may have been producing at too loud of a volume and/or just had too much aural dosage over the week. Also the vocal has plenty of pitch, emotional delivery, volume consistency, etc. issues that I can hear but calling it done for the day. Sunday 4hr morning slugfest: check!

I keep catching myself postponing and starting a song on the last day. I am committed to keep going for as long as I can and my goals is to at least keep uploading till my vacation in June but I'm noticing some form of resistance eventhough when I'm starting the song without any expectations I make my favorite kind of songs and am having fun creating. I know this in theorie but I am now consciously experiencing that there shouldn't be any pressure to create "something good" but just to create for creativity's sake and maybe there are some "good" songs in there. I am very exited when I think about my process as a producer and that I'm learning a little more about music every week. I feel so much more comfortable than 2 years ago.

Week 7 - didiririkiki - Hit the floor running

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 21:17:53 GMT

A LSDj tune this week, with some heavy misuse of the groove settings for swing. Some kind of attempt at speed garage without much 90's in it, except the whole game boy thing. Party starts at around 0:40 Also trying out retroplug for the first time, recording into ableton for some mixing. I usually record from my Game Boy but time is tight! Speaking of, ran out of time (and patterns (if you use LSDj I know you know)). There's always things that could be further polished, but I feel liberated by this whole weekly beat mentality as well. I usually spend around 2-3 more time on my "regular" tracks. The time restraint really helps me push forward instead of endless looping. Kind of pushing a new sound, but a bit limited in the bass department trying to make some interesting leads which occupied the wav-channel, which maybe could have been better used for some deeper basses. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

This week was a house music challenge on the wav.ryders Discord. I leaned fully into late 80s Chicago deep house and I am genuinely proud of how this one turned out. Classic 909 drums. Driving bassline. A pad. A topline. Done. I spent the week in the mountains with my family, squeezing in small studio sessions whenever I could. At first the track sounded more contemporary, especially the drums. But going back to the roots and committing to the 909 changed everything. Staying close to the original drum patterns gave it the right pulse. Exploring this genre is fascinating. There is so much depth in what seems simple. This one was pure fun. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

I have had zero inspiration or time for producing this week. I fucked around with breaking stuff, resampling/chopping and breaking it some more. No limits. I asked myself: "Does the tempo of a song need to be steady?" Can I introduce "swing" by automating it? I tried. Two different LFO:s automating each other connected to the bpm. It varies between like 72 and 93 or something. I don't really know. Don't hold back here. I want honest opinions on the tempo-automation thing. How bad is it? 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Well this track took a turn. It started so easy! Used some of Abletons MIDI tools to bind the keys to a scale, then just plonked away to develop the first part of the track, then as things went on it kinda got more and more out of hand.. not in a technical way, but in a 'is this really going full soundtrack?' 'can I even do that?' Felt like feeling my way around without really knowing what I was doing.. but here we are.. The hardest part was mixing.. I think this took 7 tries to get it sounding just ok. I recommend headphones. I will say though.. I do kinda like it, when the violins come in it tugs at something I often want to express in music, so I'm happy I captured that.

Week 7 - GregVK - As Long As We're Around

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 20:11:27 GMT

This Monday I decided to quit Weekly Beats. My business is struggling right now. (I'm a songwriter/editor for small artists in the age of instant AI songs). And I feel like all my attention needs to go to digging myself out of this hole. I'm focusing on pivoting into vocal recording as my main gig. If I can get enough work there I'll push up my songwriting prices and aim for a higher paying clientele so I don't need as many orders. All this to say, I felt like I was wasting time making beats while I should be working on my marketing material instead. But no matter what's going on in my life, the truth is I always have an excuse to avoid making my own art. My Grandmother passed away late last year, and today would have been her 90th. 89 years is plenty of life, but her birthday reminded me that life is short, and if you want to do something, you shouldn't wait. So I walked into my studio, set up my mics and DAW, tuned my guitar to an open tuning (not sure exactly what) played around for 5 minutes or so and hit record. My son had just gone to sleep, so I knew I had an hour and a half to figure something out. I improvised what you hear on the acoustic guitar, cut out a couple of parts that got too long winded, and then grabbed my bass. The bass was improvised, with a bunch of punch ins afterwards when I hit wrong notes. Then I went out to a friend's braai (the South African version of a barbecue) When I got home, I recorded the vocals. Like I've said in previous song descriptions, as a songwriter, I'm very meticulous in my work. Initial ideas come quickly, but I edit them for as long as the deadline allows. Since I only had around 3 hours in total for this song, I didn't have time to obsess over the perfect lines. So I leant in to the sadness I've been feeling about my Gran today, and just sung what was in my heart. I’m really glad I didn't quit. This piece is rough and raw, but that's exactly what it needed to be. And it's exactly what I needed, to see that even when I don't have time during the week, I can still make art worth making. Don't know if I'll make the upload schedule for the whole year. But I'm here today! Thank you to anyone who takes the time to listen! P.S. A quick thank you to two people for the inspiration. Dadboy's submission last week was all heart, and it's been ringing in my head since I heard it! And when I realised I still wanted to make a submission on Sunday morning, but hadn't started anything, Orangedrink's submission last week made me feel like I could do it. If he could write and record, and film a music video in 3 hours, surely I could do the same (minus the vid)! Go check them out! Both amazing pieces! Lyrics: A few months gone by. Would've been your 90th today. "I don't know why I'm living so long." Yeah that's what you would say. If you were still here. If you were still here. But you're not here, And I miss you more than I ever thought I would. I miss you more than I could've known. But we've all gotta go sometime... And you had your fill. Oh, I love you always. Please don't go away. I need the memories. I need the memories to stay. We got the best of you. I don't want the rest of you to fade. But as long as I'm around, You'll always be here. As long as we're around, You'll always be here. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:57:47 GMT

this week I was seriously out of spare time, so I made a technical decision. I didn´t go to my studio space at all, I just took one keyboard (Roland Vsynth), one effect unit (Strymon Big Sky) and a recording device (Fostex R8) to my home and bashed quickly together a few short pieces, when I had a some moments to spare... It was actually very refreshing to work just with one synth and skipping all the midi work. I just used the arpeggiator and played the rest in realtime. I did rather complex rhythms by recording a few minutes of arpeggiator improvisations and then added another track with more of the same. After a few false starts I got the tempos almost synced without any midi and it resulted in interesting and lively results. I just had to keep the tracks very short, so that the arppegiator tempo stayed more or less the same, without too much drifting. I think I will make the tracks for the nex few weeks with the same method...it was actually quite fun and liberating, 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Ashtom - Across The Veil

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:57:28 GMT

I wasn't very focused this week as I didn't have a specific idea to drive my experimentation. I only knew I wanted to have the Stylophone CPM-DS2 as the main drone. So I did start with it. After that, I wanted to try out other machines that I haven't recorded to tape yet. So I brought the Sonicware Liven Texture Lab on the 2nd track. This simple granular synthesizer got fed with one of the jingles they play in subway stations in Tokyo. It's a patch I've used several times already but I feel it has something special (and it plays well to cover the high end register). After a first listen back, it felt like a distant memory. I then embraced the idea of creating could play while someone dies (the death soundtrack if you will). They say you relive your life in fast-forward when you die and I found that this connects well with the cassette tape medium (a single line where you record what happens). So then I prepared a few of the field recording I took on my phone the past few months, as memories of my own life. And I played them on the 3rd track using the Blackbox (nice sampler from 1010music) and adding some reverb and delay to transform them as distant memories too. And then I saw the Roland S-1 lying around and since I still had a 4th track free, I thought: heh why not? So I added this looping 1-bar pattern with a few modulations here and there. That felt like the spiritual element of a near death experience so I kept it in. All in all this unexpected collage of sounds wasn't sounding too bad, although a bit messy (and life is messy and so is death). But then it all made sense when, again, I switch the speed from HIGH to NORMAL. The slowing down of the cassette tape added that indescribable vibe, and it made the whole track better. I finally drenched it in the Nightsky reverb and recorded straight to the Zoom L-12 (no Golden Master this time as it had some buzz that I couldn't get rid of). I added a tiny bit of EQ and compression with Ozone 9 Elements in Audacity and voilà! Bon appétit. Thanks to all of you who left nice words of encouragement. I hope you'll like this track too. Have a nice week everyone! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - krasher - the house in front of me

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:54:36 GMT

First attempt at singing something with lyrics. I tried learning vocal mixing with this track, and managed to do a little bit of something (also with the help of my friend who's also doing this challenge!) Some of the pitch I didn't manage to fix but that's alright. The lyrics are in Finnish: the house in front of me you're just dancing there I go through the mirror into another world I wanted to come up with lyrics quick so I just looked over to the block of flats outside of my apartment and remembered there's a neighbour about the same age as me on the other side. I have this feeling of kinship towards her. Just two people trying their best. I recorded this with my phone, with a small Rode clip-on mic. Learned something new again this week! <3 Laura 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Dank Receptor - Acid Loop 7

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:51:15 GMT

I had a busy weekend with family visiting and little time for the musicks, so here's a quick Sunday Night Acid Loop™. Had to resort to a cheesy bass line and folksy drums, but I tried to liven it up with diverging stereo acid. Recorded live to three tracks with manual drum muting for "arrangement", with slight edits in post for detailing.

Week 7 - Apticx - GenreNomad - (week7)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:47:15 GMT

Hi there, this week is something very different than what i uploaded so far but somehow closer to what i usually write. I stumbled upon ChipNomad by accident on a discord server and decided to check it out. Its basically the M8 workflow and system (so LSDJ navigation layout but with all the M8 improvements attached to it) but for the AY-3-8910/YM2149F soundchips. So basically 3 channels of bleeps and bloops. This was my first attempt at writing something on it and i decided to go a bit more sound design oriented instead of melody writing to learn about the soundchip some more. Its very funny to use because you can play noise at the same time as melodic waves but from my understanding the noise oscillator is shared between all channels so there is tons of fun fooling around with envelopes and using noise to give square waves some more attack. Overall im very satisfied but it could have used some more variation but i ran out of time so its basically just a copy paste for the „second part“. The reason why its called GenreNomad is basically me not being able to stick to genre „limitations“ and just do whatever i want no matter if its a desktop daw or a soundchip used on the 1982 ZX Spectrum. It also has a slight stereo shift between the 3 channels (a slightly left, b center, c slightly right) which adds a lot of separation for „same“ sounding channels. Overall im very pleased with the workflow and the interface so if you feel like trying it too check it out over at https://chipnomad.org/ and make sure to share your stuff in the discord! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - gunnbr - Intro

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:40:42 GMT

This started as a game intro song that was so fully formed in my head that I was worried I was copying someone else's song. But then I had lots of problems trying to translate that into a song. The bass rhythm sounds much better in my heard, but sounds a little "stiff" in my final track. I tried using a MIDI keyboard against a drum track to figure out the timing, but I had so much lag that this approach was impossible. I need to get that figured out so I'm able to use this technique in the future. I also spent a bunch of time trying to come up with different instruments and planned to finish everything up on Sunday, but when Sunday hit, I realized we have a bunch of family stuff planned, so I had to quickly throw some speed trash together just to get something out for the week. Hopefully next week is better... 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 7 - OleJazzer - But I heard

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:34:24 GMT

This is a conversation with percussion and synthesizer. One side is telling a simple sentence and the other side is going off on them not believing them. Years ago I was playing in a band in Pensacola, Florida playing at a club called the trio club and a girl I knew accuse me of not going to work instead I was going to a bar because her sister saw my car at the bar and reported that I was not working. I was at a bar. And I said of course my car was at a bar. I was inside playing guitar with the band and she went off so this is sort of reminiscing of that conversation a couple of days later I have never met her sister a couple of days later her sister who claims she never went in a bar showed up and I met her. It turns out she was a regular at the same bar so she had actually seen me in the bar. She just didn't know me and I didn't know her. I did not let the cat out of the bag and tell on her sister, but I did have a little more skin in the game with her after that, her sister never said anything bad about me. It was just funny what people do and think. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - Cakes - Return to Bliss

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:30:36 GMT

Here's a 90s styled atmospheric drum and bass track. This spawned from sticking a few classic breaks on the timeline at 170bpm and then doodling with some pads in Analog Lab. I stayed lazy on the drums and left this rooted around the break switching. I think it works as is. There's a core e-piano melody here from a Blu Mar Ten sample pack "Free Pack 2013". That part felt like cheating but it sits nicely in this. The vocal one shot is from the Zero G Vocal XTC pack. This week I learned: -What a limiter is and how I was not using it. :) -How Logic's method for reversing a sample is not at all intuitive -How to do some basic filter automation -That I like Raum better than Supermassive. Supermassive has the most confusing names for things. -The importance of sample naming conventions 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - scottux - foley work for my space mining game

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 19:22:27 GMT

I've been working on a space mining game on and off the past couple months. Lightly inspired by the mining mechanics in Star Citizen, which is obvious if you've seen the mining mechanics in that game and looked at my screenshots, but I'm angling for more of a quick arcade kind of feel and setting the technology level of the game itself back in the maybe snes or older era of graphical fidelity, etc. Anyway, as the foley work I've been doing has not exactly been a complete song, I thought putting together a little crunchy scene of what happens when you overload an asteroid with laser energy too many times and pay the consequences as your ship is pelted with asteroid bits. here's hoping the image shows up. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - Lizenn - Seven Years Apart

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 18:19:26 GMT

It was an AWFUL week. Having this little game with titles I wanted to use the seventh week to make a song for my sister which I have a 7 years difference with and is very dear to me, unfortunately creative blockage came, and I couldn't find anything meaningful and good and satisfying. Of course, searching for something that precise in a so short time frame was asking for failure. And the piling stress and frustration was not going to get me anywhere but in pain. So I just ended with making this guitarish stuff with boring drums but I wanted to get rid of this week quickly. It's very painful and frustrating. It's part of the creative process but it's kinda infuriating to be honest haha ! Sorry for this week, sorry to my sister, I'll do better next time ! I'll keep the ideas I got working on this to make a good song one day. Not everything is lost. It's ok ! Take care y'all ! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

I used it to sample a bunch of sounds and to mess with for texture, using the sample length knob that re-pitches the sample, was fun.

What i do have is my trusty old little laptop. It is a macbook air (the smallest one) from 2015. I write a lot and do some light photowork, so always have it in my backpack. I installed Ableton live lite 10 (that is the best Ableton i could install on this laptop) and made this tune in between worksessions and traveling. Used only stock instruments, FX and samples. The only "extra' i used outside the stock ableton was Valhalla Supermassive (the best free plugin imo) Hope you like my little noodle, mostly made on the train. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - djippy - Amuse

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 15:40:58 GMT

A raw rock track for you guys this week. I finally used one of my "cheats", as this track is not "finished". It was not composed this week neither, those are 3 parts that goes together, but the song itself is not written yet and we didn't take the time to polish or record properly... This is a live take, 3-4 little edits (the end with some copy paste of the close guit microphone, and the 3 different parts were cut from the jam...) One large diaphragme condenser room mic that points to the drum (with loads of leak from the guitar, the drum mic itself could have work) and a closed mic on the guitar cab. It sounds kind of boxy-roomy, but I suppose it is normal as our room is not treated, probably close to a cube, etc... It is fairly hi-ceiling, decently big room tho... I am sorry I didn't take the time to try to add any bass, or vocals, etc... It is really a "week off" for me. I called the track "Amuse" because there are little parts here and there that reminds me of "Muse" band. Only compression-limiting-eq was added to the track. (I did let "LANDR mastering plugin" take care of the final compression EQ, did add compression before it goes in there) Here is the corridor of one of the space in Montreal where tons of bands rehearse... This is Cité 2000, capture was from there The local itself: ROCK! Fitness journey... Did cheat quite a bit eating healthy but was "fine" about the training. I was able to do again about 7hrs of cardio. Weight didn't change at about 197lbs - 89kg, this is not encouraging, but it is what it is. I might have little slowdowns here and there but I don't want to bail out, so let's GO!!! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 15:11:47 GMT

I did not really feel like making music this week, and I had no real ideas on what to do besides that. The track I started first is fine-ish (and I might finish it one day), but I did not feel like continuing doing it. So instead I tried a different approach: What if I record all the instruments in one take each? I started of by recording around 2 minutes of a pad and then added a few more instruments and recorded them all in one take (that is, if I didn't forget to hit the record button 🙃😂). The only things I "fixed in post" was when I accidentally hit a completely wrong note or when I did not like an instrument and removed it again. If the track sounds a bit wild and off-beat at times, this is the reason why. Also, I was too lazy to record automation, so the track hardly has any 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Janky Jams - Peripatetic

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 15:10:24 GMT

A chill one for you this week. Set up a bunch of rhythmic sequences and static pitch chords/sequences, and then improvised the harmonies on the Oxi One Mk2's Performance view by offsetting them in-scale. "Peripatetic" because the melodies and harmonies restlessly wander throughout. I tried a slightly different recording process this time around: instead of using the main mix directly from the modular and recording stems just on the side, this time I used the audio from the multitrack recording directly. That way I was able to get better gain staging on the stems (and consequently less noise), and it just generally simplified the process a lot. It's less modular purist though, and I don't know yet how I feel about that... We'll continue to experiment next week! YouTube: Patch notes Voices were: - Serge Medusa through Serge Stereo VCFQ - Serge NTO through Serge VFCS, with occasional spikes from the Medusa through the Serge Wave Multipliers' rectifier circuit mixed in. - Cursus Iteritas Alia through Doepfer SEM as the bass Drums are my usual: - Ohmforce Bohm as The Kick - WMD Clutch as The Hihat - WMD Kraken and Fracture as The Clap Rhythmic patterns for the voices came from the 1U Steppy this time. Drums sequenced from WMD Metron as usual. FX added in DAW, a touch of Valhalla Supermassive and Ableton's standard delay.

Another one from the surf camp. Very little time as I've been surfing twice a day for the last 7 days but we strung this one together on Sunday. Made on a little mini keyboard and iPhone mic. I used an 808 and mixed on headphones so I’m not liable for anything under 100 Hz. Was quizzing the coach about the currents on this reef since it was bigger, they were kinda heavy, and I was worried about getting stuck inside. He said "you need to trust yourself, you will make it to the channel" and that was the theme for the week. Hook is trash, was the last thing I wrote. Made myself do it but probably would have been better without. They also play "Bongo Bong" on the radio every day here and I hadn't heard it. I feel its a banger so I channeled that style. › lyrics‹ lyrics[VERSE] Even though we lie we're all fallling through the sky If you open up your eyes the ground gets closer every time What goes up must come down but theres no way to turn around If you cling to the sky, it will pull you to the ground [CHORUS] Parachute dream - fall automatic Parachute dream - c float through the static [VERSE] If you know you're already falling its not hard to take a leap You can surf on the sky, once you know the key Before every time you fly, stich your life onto some lines And know that when you pull that cord, turn your fall into a glide. My goal is to write better lyrics this year so I've been following the process and frameworks from Writing Better Lyrics by Pat Pattison. › idea and narrative‹ idea and narrative A song about trusting yourself. Aesthetically inspired by "Bongo Bong" by Manu Chao and "Clint eastwood" by Gorillaz I think I want to center it around falling when skydiving. First, the feeling of falling, then, trust in the parachute as a metaphor for trust in oneself › object writing‹ object writing Aloft and floating yet falling fast. Everything rushes by. The sound of nothing in particular yet everything around you is deafening. A tiny slice of local control is offered amongst the inevitability of descent. Everything gets closer and closer all at once. Yet, the only way out is back down. Up is not an option. After commitment, you must follow through. Float and navigate wherever needed, then pull the cord. The entier affair is built around trust in that cord. A decision was made to take an almost certainly fatal leap in the absence of the parachute successfully deploying. It was checked, inspected, etc. All the preparation that could be done was done, the only thing left was to leap. Then, after leaping, the only way to go is to fall. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - TheDaeVolta - Heartbeat

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 15:05:26 GMT

This week I had complete creative block until Saturday morning, so the track doesn't have the structure I usually like, and it's as close to finished as usual BUT I hit a goal of using hardware for all sounds (crinkling paper counts as hardware, right?), and after murmuring out some lyrics and such it quickly morphed into a song pulling from Poe's The Tell-tale Heart! › Lyrics‹ Lyrics Heartbeat truely the heart beat strongly the heartbeat continued after he was dead I saw his light leave his eyes I buried him nearby but his heartbeat haunts pale blue eye chill my spine always staring all damn night Under the floorboards the heart beats on under the floorboards the heart ticks on how do I know he's really gone? 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - mukti - GRID

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 15:01:37 GMT

This week I started watching Formula 1: Drive to Survive and was inspired by Sferro's new track Mental Stack to try and make a song that would fit a racing game. I had a few different renditions of "racing music" but a lot of the earlier ones felt very flat and basic. Got some bad news at the end of the week, and was a bit out of it for a few days; but was able to pull the track together at the end. Continuing the theme, my friend invited me to go go-karting today (02/15) and I managed to get a pic that I could use as cover art. Adding the F1 car sound is maybe too on-the-nose for this kind of track... but I did it anyway 😅. Overall it isn't exactly the most complicated or interesting track, but I think it works well. Any feedback is appreciated! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - tarsiidea - Slide

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 14:43:41 GMT

This weeks track started out as a piece on the piano playing around with chords and a melody that evoked a feeling of sliding down. After recording it, I did a scratch vocal melody that stripped back the piano melody, and distilled it down nicely. It was a really fun way of working, and was nice being back writing on the piano. Lyrics: I hesitate your words were empty, but weighed me down The time it breaks all my thoughts are fragments now And I can't help but feel that I am nothing I'm left here plagued the moments pass on through me And where will I be tomorrow your words they cast a bitter shadow And then I slide down Holding onto all I can Slide down Losing myself to the depths I slide down There's nothing left for me here but to Slide down Slide down, down 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 14:05:53 GMT

Unfortunately, I had another tiring week. I postponed making something for weekly beats until the weekend, but I was very tired this weekend and had a headache that didn't want to go away. Also, I am now typing this with limited vision due to wiggly lines dancing in front of my eyes. I must be having some kind of migraine. Don't worry. I'll do the adult thing and contact a doctor. Given these circumstances, what I made for this week is a form of speed trash. I "finished" a project I abandoned earlier. This is one I which I used the Dirtywave M8 wavsynth for everything.

This week really didn’t go well. I had started a thing early on monday, but I struggled with it and it didn’t want to go anywhere… I was also overwhelmed and extremely tired, struggling to even eat and take care of myself… The track I’m uploading just poofed into existence in just a couple of hours, after I decided to trash the earlier one. It’s a sort of vent art I guess… not exactly sure what it is or if I like it, but it felt good to make. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - freezedream - Liminal

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 11:50:22 GMT

I recently was given a Yamaha PS-55 musical keyboard to play around with and I wanted to try to make a piece of music using only the sounds it could make. Almost all sounds except the piano come from this home keyboard from 1983! The keyboard belongs to my uncle and I remember playing on it often when I visited his house and being fascinated with the sounds it could make. The sad thing is that my uncle has now moved into a care home, so I've been helping my family a little bit with sorting and clearing out his place. This ended up being a short song - a song about a cruel thief called dementia. -- Ooo it's fading away Time's fading away now Ooo it's fading away Time's fading away now When was the last time That you ever felt confused And lonely at a party Full of friends? Important conversations From just yesterday Seem somehow out of reach And out of view Ooo it's fading away Time's fading away now Ooo it's fading away Time's fading away now Say goodbye It was nice meeting you But I won't remember your name Say goodbye It was nice knowing you But I won't remember your face Empty cupboards And empty rooms That's all you remember Faded conversations And things Your face not familiar Say goodbye 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - JaiClone - Lessons Not Learned

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 11:19:27 GMT

This one is weird... I had to go away for the weekend (my usual WB time), so on Thursday I found this little guitar bit in the ol' idea vault (the intro bit), transcribed it to piano, thinking it'll make a simple little instrumental to get me by for the week... Yeah, so that didn't happen... Instead, something way more ambitious than I had time for emerged (oops). I wanted super boomy beats, but I quickly ran into mastering issues as I tried to rush the finish up; either too quiet overall, or the beats were slamming the comp in weird ways. I uploaded what I had just before leaving, but as a last minute thought, I threw the master file on the cloud in case I could call on huge emergency favour from Nyarlos, and mega thankfully he was able do quick master for me, so your ears can thank him for better a listening experience :) (he is much better at this stuff than me, I usually just keep trying presets til it sounds decent) Anyhoo, the song; well, it is... a song... It is an example of going with each of the first things that came to mind, just boom, boom, boom, yep, that's how that's going to be, ain't got no time for trying other ideas. For better or worse, there is less overthinking going on in this than usual. The lyrics could be better and I intended to flesh them out a bit, but eh, it is what it is. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - Tweaklab - The Day Fades Out

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 11:10:57 GMT

Another "how I've been feeling" kind of tune. We have survived the first full week of Prep, Grade 6 and High School. We have commuted, worked, played, spent the weekend at the library and chilling at home or seeing my widowed father for breakfast... The tune is just about life. The mornings we always assume we will get another tomorrow, and the evenings we wind down, never knowing when it will be the last time. But when we aren't caring about those things, life is good. Just making more next times until it's the last time. Life is good. :) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - ONE HIT KILL - SURF BRK TRIP CHOON - LSDJ/nanoloop/guitar

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 10:40:31 GMT

There is much to explore here mixing surf, dnb breakbeats, guitar and chiptune. It's a recipe I've "resorted to" a few times. I suppose to some extent my weekly beats has become exploring ideas for an eventual sequel to my guitarra y gameboy album I made when I was a total chiptune noob a few years ago. This track was sort of inevitable, I've thrashing monster bash pinball lately and it has a real rockabilly surf n roll type sound track that has been infectious I had to write a nanoloop bass line inspired by it. Tempo wise, surf and dnb can mix pretty easy. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

this week is crazy overproduced. i wanted to use my worldstick again for something because the last time i used it on any kind of music was on the last tour i played as project rainfall in like 2017. since then it was always a fight for me to go back to my singer/songwriter pop days. so it felt like reconnecting with an old friend. with all the good and bad that could come. the lyrics are also sort of about the person that build the instrument for me. we always stayed connected but that ended at some point when skype died and i lost my login info. i found him online again but i still feel weird reaching out now after all these years. so i wrote a song about it :D some vocals provided by After the Ashes 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 08:37:01 GMT

This week came completely out of left field. This was a left over recording from last weeks weekly beats session. I was rushed and didn't bother listening back to the last recording. This recording is about an hour long, and this long, progressive and evolving techno track which would almost be good enough to release. This weeks weekly beats is a small snippet of it, it was difficult to decide just what to release however I think this is a good place. Sound sources: Battering Ram (kick drum), Manis Iteritas: Bass and rest of the sounds. FX: Bastl Ikarie (filter, VCA, saturation), Electus Versio (delay/reverb). Maybe Erica Synths DSP (mono delay). All this squished into Librae Legio. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - Tom Foolery - Fingers and thumbs

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 07:00:19 GMT

IT HAS BEEN A VERY BIG WEEK. I don't think I've fully caught up with it all yet. Selected big things: I got a new job! I've worked my current job for the last 5 years and although I was very happy there, an opportunity came along that was too good not to follow, and as I interviewed I realised I really wanted to work at this place. Saying goodbye to the people I work with is going to be very sad, but I am very excited at the opportunities that will come with the next stage of my career. Part of the interview process involved a personality test, which after a 30 minute questionnaire gave me a very thorough and scarily accurate look at myself. It was a bit surreal, and a strange mixed feeling. It made me feel very understood, predictable, and very normal? (not that I didn't feel normal beforehand). It gave me lots of helpful things to look out for and to work on too. I know it's a descriptor and not a life-sentence, but it has made me think a lot about the way I look at the world, respond to things happening, and my relationships with the people around me. MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC. I saw Alex G on Wednesday - beautiful. I can't believe how big an artist he is now, how far his songwriting has gone, and also how tight the band's performance was. I went to Laneway festival - highlights: Oklou was transcendent, Geese had such a passionate crowd and singing Au Pays du Cocaine along with the crowd was cathartic. Bladee and Yung Lean were a surprise favourite for me with an intense AV/lighting experience with mesmerising live visuals from Nate Boyce. I was transfixed but also torn between watching the live show and watching his laptop screen to figure out what he was doing. Then yesterday I went to Life's a Beach festival with my brother. I'm not normally listening to heavy music but I enjoy seeing it live, and it was very special to get to go with my brother. If I thought Geese were cathartic, getting into the moshpit was another level of catharsis. Highlight sets there wer Thy Art is Murder (with a new frontman???) and Heavensgate. This week I started writing a very elaborate post-punk track, layered electric guitar, electronic percussion, distorted bass guitar, and I was very pleased with the instrumental. But when I got to the vocals, I was absolutely stuck. I just couldn't get anything to hit. I moved on and did my other weeklybeat (see: walter normand) in a matter of 20 minutes or so. I came back to this track and again I was stuck. Running out of time I decided to pick up my acoustic (still in DADGAD from last week), and improvised into an SM57 as a room mic. This was the fourth take of improvising. It just poured out of me, and left me feeling satisfied but also wrecked. You can also hear Ren (my cat) on backup vocals. Decided to keep the recording pretty dry, just some compression and EQ - I really like the howling room resonances that appear at points too. just take it as it comes 'cause you can't get it back your fingers and your thumbs are holding you back tomorrow never waits so let's go get some rest your fingers and your thumbs lay them on my chest it's just another day you've been here before just take it as it comes and you'll do good I'm sure 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - HoolieBrown - Brass for Blood

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 06:51:21 GMT

All Sequenced, tracked and rough mixed in the Dirtywave M8 Vox and acoustic guitar were recorded through an MD421 through light 1176 style compression on a UA276 directly into the M8 First takes only :D I really wanted to change things here - it was tempting. I was very dehydrated and I could hear it. When I came back and tried to clean it up earlier this saturday night the performance wasnt there. Mixed with a bunch of my ozone bus presets in Reaper - also my workflow there is 2 stages - I find myself tracking everything onto the m8, getting song structure down, then pulling vocals into reaper with an instrumental mix, handling the harmony stacks and the tuning if needed, bouncing the mixed vocals as a stereo track back into the M8, putting in sweeteners and making adjustments before I bring it back out to Reaper for one last (very quick) pass at a master. For the song - this is a character. I grew up hard, I like it quiet now. Lyrics I missed a couple words but will put the intended lines here: It’s been a year since I got my gun A year since I said I’m not gon’ run When them boys from the old town step Strapped up I’m gon’ tell em that I’m not the one Never more with they hold me down I’ll be the king of the whole damn town No fear gonna keep my pride and family safe and sound Not like yesterday, or any other day Today is something better, took my fear away Make a final stand, the iron in my hand Trading brass for blood, trading brass for blood the iron in my hand It’s been a year since them boys came round A year since I made em hit the ground They rolled up from the old town, stepped and I raised that barrel then they heard that sound Never more will they hold me down I’m the king of the whole damn town No fear gonna keep my pride and my family safe and sound Not like yesterday, or any other day Today is something better, took my fear away Make a final stand, the iron in my hand Trading brass for blood, face down in the mud the iron in my hand It’s been a year since I got my gun A year since I tried to be someone from the sky I can hear momma cry sayin lord why’d you have to take him home so young 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - lulub4ts - 「Feeling CRASH!」

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 06:43:59 GMT

☆ Had a bit of a FEELING CRASH this week! Like the waves of this song, sometimes I feel like a kettle of emotion - temperature slowly rising - that needs to steam out, bubble over, to reach a baseline again. I'm getting used to balancing full-time work alongside trying to grow & make my little art projects. Like everyone, sometimes I feel so utterly exhausted that it's hard to come home & continue work on the things that actually make me feel alive. Still, is it a fool's errand to base a whole identity on a creative output, especially when I find it so strained lately? Is it better not to fixate on a Self at all? Is it better just to act, or to rest, depending on how much the body can take? ☆ I dunnoooo. Haha, anyway, here's an accelerating ditty. Beedoo-boop. I learned how to use chords on Lovely Composer a little more this week. ᕙ( •̀ ᗜ •́ )ᕗ Might have a bit of burn-out lol. Still, even with a 「FEELING CRASH!」... it's been a good week. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 7 - codydjango - sympathetic departure

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 05:51:42 GMT

it's been a rough few weeks and the cortisol has been building up, definitely. but it's coming to a head: tomorrow my wife and my toddler and I leave bc for a trip to peru. the bags are mostly packed, and as long as we don't forget our passports we're set. It'll be my first time in peru, but my wife has been many times. Her parents have a house in lima, and we'll be staying there. I'm bringing along my m8 and an audio interface, so with a little luck I'll keep my weekly streak going. :) this track was thrown together quickly. it's basically a little jam built around chopping of some vocal samples of my daughter and I, sequenced through the drum machine. actually, there's two drum machines here, one more chaotic, in the beginning, then fading out, and in the final third there's some pads that come in to quiet the chaos a little bit. the image in my mind is of an airplane taking off, rising above the day-to-day stresses, leaving that behind. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

Week 7 - george bowles - dice game 3 electrocacoustical psychedelic nightmare

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 04:30:41 GMT

the dice game is where i have 20 instruments and 20 pedals rolled up with 20 sided dice (or as the list gets smaller, 12 sided dice etc). this week rolled up a box harp, arturia db impact drum machine, gibson nighthawk guitar, and a contact mic. surfaces for the contact mic included glass, an old cookie tin with a few crumbs, fabric, my skin, and whatever else was near my recording setup. the pedals that were included by the dice: bleak district electric antistatic fuzz pedal (wonderfully blasted fuzz pedal with micro looper), Analogy analog delay, fish and chips eq by danelectro, and the Pod GO guitar multi fx pedal. there were 7 channels of audio recorded, no virtual instruments, all performance. i got a little more tipsy than usual when i made this one. it's definitely a trip. lots of electroacoustic textures (but through pedals), detached acid guitars, severely damaged fuzz sounds, experimental af. it sounds like i did some serious psychedelics when i made this but I was just drunk and very stoned. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

You hear a dull thumping coming from the chamber above. Determined to meet the wizard you cautiously work your way up the staircase. You pause at the door, trying to divine what that unearthly racket is beyond the threshold. As you open the door all noise stops. The air snaps still. A robed man, beard down to his knees, covered in bronze medallions stares at you. "A customer!" he cries. The noise resumes, the drums pound, a screeching like you've never heard fills the air. The wizard gyrates as if under a spell, or perhaps he is casting one? Made while sitting on the floor with M8. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - increment - Ninepins

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 02:51:29 GMT

Two samples from Señor Picante as a part of the February Beat Collective Challenge. The samples where pretty good as is, so only did some minor tweaking to them. I thought it'd be a good one to keep a bit groovy, something that'd go down well in a cafe in the late 90s, so pulled out the upright bass plugin and went at it :) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Jentu - Back Home

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 02:43:11 GMT

Really leaning into the Sims vibe (and maybe a little Planet Zoo?) this week. The original project file is from a decade ago and it was only 8 measures long, so I'm glad I was finally able to do something with it. This is a loopable piece so I can hopefully use it in some D&D sessions as background music, but I might come back eventually and put an ending on it. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Going to be away for a while, so I'll be making mostly M8 beats for a few weeks. Last time or two that I get to play my guitar and bass, so thought I'd get some rocky songies in. Struggling with vocal energy (just never had a good day to do it), but I'm pretty dang proud of the mix. Feel free to tell me I'm wrong xD Lyrics: Who saw him first? Who saw him last? Nothing in this world's gonna last Who found him here? Who came to me? Things are so messed up lately Where is he now? He stood right there Nothing in the world should have him bare The simple truth The complex talk You're gonna lose now matter who you are 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - Napear - Silver in the Seams

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 23:39:43 GMT

Ok, so I am lucky enough to have more creative projects on my plate than I really have time to dedicate to them... and sadly WB is kinda the first thing to dial back to make space... so this week is more of a sketch than a fully produced track. In spare moments throughout the week I cobbled together a rough idea for a piece, and then today I scraped together an hour or so to track it and do a (very) rough mix. I'm not really sure where this one came from... like emotionally... it just kinda fell out of my hands, and I think it might be me pulling things back together after last weeks primal scream. But at any rate, I still very much consider this a sketch and I would greatly appreciate any constructive feedback folks might have on really any portions of it (composition, performance, mix, etc). I do think I like the general piece, and will likely circle back to it so feedback would be super useful. Well, with that I'm off to get back to my other projects... I hope life is going as well as it can for everyone reading this, and I'm looking forward to getting lost in all the amazing sounds you all have made over the last week. › Production Notes‹ Production Notes There's not really a ton to say here, you know... solo piano. But, technically this is me continuing with the "year of hardware". Because it's pretty much just the Nord Grand 2. I used the Studio Grand 2 (medium), and then put it through a little delay, and the "stage" reverb on the Nord itself. For the performance, I just hit record on my Tascam and did like 4 or 5 takes. What's uploaded is the one I didn't hate (not comped). Then I hit it with some basic channel strip EQ, compression, etc. The only interesting thing was I used the "shimmer" reverb preset in MTuroReverb, to add a little extra somethin' somethin', and then side-chained the main audio to a Neutron Unmasker on the reverb to duck it out of the way of the piano, and allow it to fill up the quieter spaces a little... But other than that, it's just kinda me sitting at my piano playing a noodle that's been stuck in my head all week... so... again feedback would be appreciated. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Experimenting with Open C tuning this week - Shown to me by Home Taping Association - and I enjoyed it breaking me out of some compositional ruts that I have been in of late. Some new chord shapes and voicings have been fun to use. Been back and forth with the mixing on this one as well - too much bass, not enough bass, harsh high end and then a dull mix...

Decided to go with an ambient track after the first attempt became a hated loop. Really enjoyed working on this. Main melody and chord is a hypersynth in the M8, using commands to create the melody lines. I might do that technique again but with more chords and interesting stuff, this worked better as it is.

Week 7 - alterationx10 - The Wishing Tree

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 19:54:41 GMT

This is a resurrection of a project I've been putting too much pressure one myself for several years. I can't believe the Ableton project even opened - so I took it as a sign. I had a vocal track I made with Synth V, because I was afraid of sounding bad singing on my own. Now I'm just less afraid :-) So I recorded my own singing along with it, and layered in some synth - which was a little rough, as I've even forgot the key the song was originally intended to be written in. I still don't think it's "creatively finished" - another incarnation will rise one day. This song is about a Wishing Tree, calling out to those that can hear it. Come carve your name, and get your wish granted - but instead of it materializing, you jut get the knowledge of how to do it yourself. › Lyrics‹ Lyrics come to me look for a sign lay down your intentions feel lost in what is found and I'll whisper to you cross the gate with your guard down witness my roots weave round, like a snake it the grass close your eyes, start to dream and I'll sing for you a wish on the tip of your tongue your name on the tip of a knife carve it in and we'll begin before you know it (wouldn't you know it?) names unknown but never alone there's still room for one more drag your knife through clean bark wish on me and know a wish on the tip of your tongue your name on the tip of a knife carve it in and we'll begin before you know it (wouldn't you know it?)

Initially I wanted to make an entirely different track that now lies stale and barely started on my hard drive. Instead I had the urge to make something more fun again, something trancy and energetic. Certainly not perfect (i.e. missing up/downlifters, filter sweeps), but I still am quite happy with the result given I only had a week. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - Nueli - New5

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 18:59:51 GMT

Yay another song in 5! Should I have done something in 7 for week 7 :pensive_emoji: ? Whatever, I had a lot of fun making it. Plus it's Saturday again so no deadline rush tomorrow. Some thoughts on the track: - a typical song for me I think: a fast synth, a drum loop to play with, reverb, 2 parts to make it longer than 1m. - a bit too all over the place, weird at the start then gaining focus as it progresses. - retrospectively I think I tried to keep a steady snare or kick to counteract the odd meter. - I started it at the same time as week 5 song (also in 5), but it took more time to mature. I have to say last week was a treasure trove of good songs it almost brings me to tears to think about all of you making music, it's beautiful, so many ideas, so many lives, so much beauty. 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

It's amazing how once you have assembled the right instruments around you, you can just sit down for a couple hours and pull something really fun to listen to out of your ass. It's not gonna be particularly polished or "professional" sounding. But it'll be damn fun. Well this is how I feel about COCA COLA. Made the Volca Bass, Ableton's operator on that pad, and a little-bit of guiro pixie dust. I also rubbed a usb stick against an external hard drive for that plastic scratchy loop as the cherry on top. A big shout out to my friend B.Side who I had over the other night and convinced to do Weekly Beats! He was messing around with my set up and made the synth sequence that this track revolves around.

Week 7 - deeckzeven - flagpole clatter

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 17:04:31 GMT

There is a small veterans memorial at a local park that I frequent. It includes a row of flag poles. Last weekend while sitting on a bench I noticed that there was some breeze, but that it was not enough to make the flags actually fly. And even though the flags were hanging limp, somehow there was enough wind to make all the flag-supporting hardware continually clatter against the pole. If that's not a metaphor then I don't know what is. Sometimes the noise was just chaotic clanging. Other times it seemed to get organized, banging out a little clave for a while. So it goes. Anyhow, I recorded that. And bit by bit, with no plan to speak of, it became this. Don't love it, but did finish it. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Structurally, that's going to take more than just writing the bare minimum per category. But to keep things manageable, I'm treating the new checklist additions as stretch goals, not essentials. Completing the updated checklist would take thirty of the fifty-two weeks we've got, and there are other kinds of music I'd like to write this year. Oh, and I'm ready to give this whole gosh darned thing a name: "Gravest Gardener." A plantpunk rpg. It'll be a klutzy journey but I hope it can make people happy.

Week 7 - Sir Bunting - Amber Hour

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 15:18:13 GMT

This week I tried an 8-note Mixolydian Bebop scale but probably did it incorrectly. Not using the extra note exclusively for passing notes introduces sad sounding harmony. Unexpected outcome. I wasn't even in a bad mood or anything, I was in a pretty good mood, but didn't want to waste the effort so I added a mini "Space Lion" moment in the middle and added a meme audio... oh, right, I found my audio cable, so those drums in the space lion part are from my phone. So I did try something new. I don't think Reaper has the same sync functionality that Ableton does. But all you have to do is manually match the bpm yourself and trim the silence from before you hit the go button... That and technically it's the first time I just added a random .wav file, but that's not hard or anything. I am sort of interested in manipulating those more, though, like by slowing down part of a .wav. I've been sitting on this funny instrument I want to use eventually too... 2026 CC0 Creative Commons Zero (Public Domain)

Week 7 - Maritalstreep - ZSJ7- The Lament of Don Draper

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 14:18:09 GMT

I wrote this song last week, and I've been going on a bit of a "Mad Men" rewatch... So I took 2 of my favorite Don Draper lines- when he tells Peggy "It will shock you how much it never happened" while she is in the hospital after giving up her baby in season 1, and the famous elevator meme where he tells the other writer "I don't even think about you at all". I have always loved the idea of how Don reinvented his identity from being Dick Whitman, so i wanted to write a song about recreating yourself into a new persona. I have no idea if my harmonies ever work, I always want to perfect that shoegaze/dreamy Hope Sandoval sound, but I probably don't have the voice or production skills for it. For the record, my other favorite "Mad Men" line is in "The Suitcase" when Peggy is saying she doesn't get enough credit and Don says "That's what the money is for!" 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - dadboy - Creep

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 13:40:01 GMT

This has been a busy week, and a little harder to just sit and think. I struggled a lot with the mix of this one (I'm still not super satisfied if I'm honest, but it's good enough), and I have mixed feelings about there being a lack of a cohesive whole, but for how busy it's been, I can live with it. There's less of a clear sort of emotional center to this song, but I had a few things swirling around in my head as I worked on it. The main thing is: I struggle a lot with intrusive thoughts related to some unresolved traumas, and when I'm tired/stressed/overstimulated, those walls of compartmentalization weaken and break down, and those old hurts start to surface and even though it's painful, there's this familiar sort of settling sense that happens. Thankfully EMDR has been helping stabilize the extremes of this, and things feel like they're starting to fade a bit. Ultimately, it's a chaotic mix of things, and I feel like this song somewhat conveys that whole process/feeling. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

It's Valentine's day (or it was if you're reading this), so this is a song with heart.

It's about time the melodica came back, tracked the whole thing basically in one go. Who cares it's just the same loop in F major penta, that's the whole point! A steady relationship!

Week 7 - Earp Lug - Mount Pluvia

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 04:28:59 GMT

This week's song was fairly simple. I played a single note on my Casio SA-1 into the delay in my Stylophone CPM-DS2 and turned it up until it began to self-oscillate. Over the next two minutes and eighteen seconds, the sound began to distort and then fall apart into distinct resonant tones before I faded it out. I played the same note a second time, and this time it fell into slightly different tones. I synchronised the recordings, and panned one all the way to the right and the other to the left so that the tones would sort of bounce back and forth with eachother. I then played some ambient notes with long Attack and Release and a really low Cutoff in my MicroKorg and synchronised it with the other droning sounds. Finally I recorded some more of my DS2, this time with a really long LFO rate. I set one LFO to a complex stepping pattern, and the other to something like a double sawtooth. I cranked up the Delay, but not to the point that it would self-oscillate, and added a small amount of Reverb. After adding all the tracks to the same timeline, I animated their levels so they would come in and out at different times to give the song more texture. For the video, I was initially planning to take footage from a balloon ride on Valentine's day, but it was too rainy so I filmed some footage of one of my favorite mountains instead. I slowly zoomed in and out multiple times from both the front and the back, and used them to mark the beginning and end of the video. I combined multiple takes by using the Lighten Opacity setting, and then isolated each track into either Red, Green, or Blue (the three primary light colors), and overlayed them. It created this great effect that I experimental with in Scrapnel, but to a higher degree. The mountain footage, even slowed down from 60 frames per second down to 30 wasn't quite long enough to fill the full video, so I sped the two clips up slightly and added some additional footage of raindrops on my windshield that I recorded while waiting in the Taco Bell drivethrough. The footage was recorded in HD but as I'm editing at SD, it was especially zoomed in. I slowed it down to 30 frames per second as well, overlayed it, and this time isolated the colors to teal, magenta, and yellow (the secondary light colors) before using the Lighten Opacity setting. I like how it looks like abstract shapes floating through space, and it adds a nice bridge between the similar ending and beginning. My buddy Russell and I were talking about "play" and not taking your work too seriously. They like to juggle, and they don't push it further than they would if they were just playing. I was trying to convince them that you can play in the video edit, and what do you know, I did just that for this week's video. Is it good? Is it bad? Who knows, but I had fun playing around with it at every step, so it's a success in my zine. Originally this track was going to be titled its running time, but I had the idea to call it Mount Pluvia after I finished the video, so I can save that other title idea for a future song if I want. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5F1R8j05Koc 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

The track is just me noodling on the bass in e-minor, and a multi-sampled drum kit I sequenced up.

Week 7 - NickLong - Astro Kart 64

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 22:48:44 GMT

A track made with Bitwig for Weekly Beats. I wanted to do something full on cheesy four on the floor. The inspiration for this track was Mario Kart music specifically from the Wii era (hence the ambient piano). Artwork designed by my daughter. Composition thing for this week is moving 13th chords around chromatically for jazz fusion craziness and a weird modulation from C major to E major in the bridge section. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 7 - cistern stairs - melting up

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 21:24:22 GMT

Week 7 2/10 Goal at start: Make multiple beat prototypes and pick one to move forward with. Continue to focus on rhythm. Try to do vibe and genre checks and get something that sounds as close to digicore as you’re able to get. 2/13 I succeeded in making a total of 3 prototype beats this week, but by the time I picked one to move forward with it was Friday and I was out of time so I barely scraped this one through and there’s virtually no mixing done on it. My other goal was to make digicore which I think I actually got much closer to with my other two prototype beats, but ran with this one because I thought it was the one I was most likely to be able to finish in the two hours I had left. Also holy hell, I always fail hard at kick placement. I need to come up with a strategy for how to improve on that. Action plan for next week: Despite the chaos that was this week I think I’m going to repeat the process of making multiple prototype beats. I think I learned some things by pushing myself to make more faster, if I can just figure out how to not be stranded by Friday. However, I might try an alternate strategy of moving with the first beat forward to completion while dividing my time to tinker with other rougher project files. I think that would help me learn faster. We’ll see. As for improving kick placement, still not sure how to approach this yet. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - NeonRebar - Easy Peasy, Lemon's queasy

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 19:29:47 GMT

The real story behind the saying "ez peasy..." Three friends — a lemon, a potato, and a pea — go out drinking and decide to roll down a hill to get home. The lemon has a rough ride and ends up feeling sick, but the pea wants to do it again. The potato looks at the pea and says: “Easy peasy — lemon’s queasy.” Ingredients: Frame Drum I just got from bro Tongue drum Damage percs Metal trinkets, cookie tin and other crap Queasy slide guitar, bass Keys I started playing this queasy riff on slide acoustic and thought Ill take this turd and polish it up real nice and then annoy some people on WB. So then I added a bunch of other stuff and here we are. Pretty useless tune but it was a good exercise in using Reaper regions and tweaking a lousy tune into something slightly less lousy. If I revisited this I can see where some editing and allowing parts to breathe would make it better but Im out of time and this just isnt worth any more effort. Also, serves as a kind of expression of how I feel about the world now and where its headed. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - Disposable Planet - Higgs Massive

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 17:09:31 GMT

Another week, another LSDJ tune! This week marks the halfway point on the concept album. 5 tracks down, 5 to go. In keeping with the elementary particle theme, this week is the Higgs Boson, also known colloquially as "The God Particle", which was discovered at the CERN Large Hadron Collider last decade! The Higgs Boson links to other particles and has to do with the Higgs Field, which is what gives particles their mass - hence the cheeky title, which also fits because this is a drumnbass tune. I don't set out to incoporate other genres and musical styles into my music before I start making a tune. Usually that kind of thing just happens as I'm making it. This tune is a drumnbass tune with a heavy flamenco influence in the lead melody parts. I used to play Spanish classical guitar for many years and have listened to a lot of classical guitarists and flamenco artists over my life so I guess it just naturally found its way into this. Also the progression is kind of flamenco inspired as well, though I just wanted something descending in a minor key, at first. There's a grimy bass at the intro and a drone that plays some harmonies and chords to create a dark introduction. Then the melody kicks in. You can hear those fast note runs associated with flamenco guitar especially in the second melody and solo. The bass gets a little amped up after a while in a Squarepushery fashion. There are some stops and starts and there is even a fake echo section later in the song after some staccato arps. Happy with how this one came out - it captures the implied heaviness of the Higgs Particle. Thanks, as always, for listening! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

This is one of those frustrating Weekly Beats tracks that I spent too much time on but it didn't quite come together. It feels too good to throw it all away and try to bang out a track in a couple of days, but it also doesn't feel quite good enough for submission. Maybe it was the 6/8 time signature. Oh well. Ended up as kind of a mashup between a southern murder mystery and a dilapidated sci-fi colony ship. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 7 - LainHiro - TEKLAB- Stream

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 11:24:11 GMT

This week we have the Ableton Move and the Mini Freak working together. Originally this track was composed on the Move and then exported into live where I swapped out the bass and some synth lines for the Mini Freak. I guess I'm using the Move as intended this time around. The main synth riff was a total stream of consciousness done in two passes, first pass being a proof of concept, and the second being the result you hear here. I am not a keyboard player by any means, but sometimes I just don't want to stare at a piano roll for hours. Ran the whole track through an analog filter for some dirt. Hope you enjoy. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - BarristerPlong - The Skull Throne

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 05:59:32 GMT

This week feels surreal to me. I've been wanting to and chasing the sounds I made this week since I started this pursuit. I am beyond thrilled with the results. This was all in Ableton done on my 7 string in drop G#, rhythm done on the neck pickup, lead on the bridge, bass parts were on my wife's gretsch short scale bass and the drums are the Urgitone plugin. It requires a little bit of tweaking before it reaches its album release form, but I am super proud of how it turned out. › Gear Details‹ Gear DetailsI almost never keep track of what I used on what but I want to change that. Guitar tone was Fishman Fluence Modern pickups into my Katana MK2 on the Crunch model (modeled after a Fender Bassman) set at mid gain with a Rat pedal, also at mid gain, into an octave pedal placed before the preamp. Of all the playing around I've done with the katana, the crunch channel and a pedal in front of it is the juiciest tones for doom and metal, it really seems to handle the low frequencies better. For the rhythm I EQ in a little more bass and lower the treble and middle a little bit, for the leads I do the opposite so they clash a little less especially considering its the same guitar doing both parts. The reverb was added in Abelton and it is the trusty Valhalla Supermassive. Bass which is a double humbucker short scale bass, was recorded into my Katana again on the clean channel which I believe is modeled after a Jazz Chorus. I initially tried the bass section on my Squier Jazz bass but it really needed a setup and was just too big and too difficult for my guitar hands. Drums are the Urgitone Modern Doom kit which have one of the worst interfaces I've ever had to deal with but sound fantastic. I took a while trying to get a solid grove going with them and I'm actually really happy with how the drum parts turned out (though I nitpick the drop and slow sections drums every time I listen) Thank you for listening!

Quiet week. Wasted too much time watching long Diablo 2 videos and scrolling Reddit. Talked about superbowl half time show. Listened to a lot of news. Feeling a bit doomer. VTC and G went to hospital. G struggling with unknown health issue. Since has returned home. Talked to VTC on the phone. Late call with retirement advisor. Out of depths. Shared health news and informed of travel to a politically tense country. Uninterested in learning. Lost a lot of respect and infinitely disappointed. Can't see past home town relationships. Nothing I can do. Too self preoccupied to reflect or know me. TM's Bday, nice dinner w/ friends. KB's business set up soon. Took turns playing with L&R's kid so they could eat. Nice seeing, T&D and A there too. Regular walks. Picked up new book. Valentines day plans set w/ wife. Looking forward to it. Need to set up health check up and finish filings. Avoidant. AL deep into Animal crossing again. Talked about New contract potential. currently fell through. Bad health week for eating. Getting used to long hair again.

Used PE Tracker this time to compose over a few days of light tinkering in down time (15 minute chunks here and there). Recorded stereo to Tascam (probably can export). Mastered with ozone 10 in Ableton. Probably could have fleshed this track out more but remembered my desired to take it easy this year and go with the flow. Track started with slicing old Nanoloop drum loop made previously. Likely made from from drum machine samples and NL's synths engines. Combo of old last week and this week's eurorack samples used w/ additional sample library on tracker. A few old Alpha Juno and syntakt samples. Lots of metalic linear FM patches from Mother 32. Sequence sampled and sliced. Main synths Made from basic waves recorded from M32, triangle and square (lfo tuned up). Waves looped and sculpted w/ tracker. A bit of an extension of the "test song ethos". File Name: 02_10_2026 New Project Ableton, New Project 2_9_2026 Polyend tracker, 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 05:32:33 GMT

Had some travel trouble this week so had to make this one entirely on my phone with Koala, which I'm sure a lot of you know is a tremendously capable sampler. It was actually more difficult to convert the wav file to mp3 for upload here than it was to make the track. It starts with some moderately harsh noise I recorded off of my hotel radio. Rest of the track is pretty standard beat-making / splice sample chopping / effects button mashing. Koala really is a powerhouse. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - Cosmic Cairns - Song For a Higher Dimensional Entity

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 00:04:45 GMT

Looking at the state of the world, I can't help but hope there's more out there than this. Some people think it's possible to access other dimensions through meditation or drugs or maybe just falling through a tear in the fabric of reality. I don't know about any of that, but if there are higher beings observing us whether they be gods or aliens or something else entirely, well I think my first instinct if I met one would be to be apologetic about humanity. After that I'd want to learn any cool stuff they wanted to teach me. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I got cut adrift I believe in nothing now I come from a world So cold cruel and small I hope that you're kind Thoughtful and merciful If you think I'm Worth noticing at all Show me how to vibrate With the universe My consciousness bursts open And blows in the wind Don't know if tomorrow Will ever arrive If I'm still alive and if Time's even real Does anything Matter to you at all? Is there some great truth That I should know? Tell me a tale Vital and wonderful Reveal the path Beyond the stars Show me how to coalesce With all that is Everything everywhere That ever could be And unveil the secret To my destiny Reality bends and Breaks at the seams 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - Minnamari - Keeping It Together

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 22:35:20 GMT

The fairy dust of my mind tries to add sparkle onto the tensions. To hide my own destructive behaviors underneath the sparkles. The bassline of my soul tries to glue the contradictions together. But even the bassline goes quiet fromm time to time. Keeping It Together is a magical act. A spell of mundane everyday magic. But it can take effort to do. Sometimes it's worth the effort. Other times, it is not. And you have to let GO. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - halfbyte - Pensive [half/byte's re-contemplation]

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 20:38:08 GMT

This is a remix of scy's "Pensive" from last week. With kind permission. On his track I commented how much I liked his restraint in not putting the usual distorted drums on it. Well. I am a bit embarrassed how long it took me to realize that the main synth line is just playing 5ths. This remix is very obviously inspired by Kuedo's Severant, an album that is still, 15 years after its release, in heavy rotation here. I mostly left the original structure intact, with one exception and basically just put some additional effects on top, added these weird trap style drums and two additional synth lines. This was fun! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - Dyrt Dyzyrt - To The Grave

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 18:10:00 GMT

Hey friends, I need to come clean.... I know this is "Weekly Beats", but for me it's going to be more like "Monthly Beats", as in my personal goal is to finish one song every month (which would be a big deal for me!). I initially imagined this song being a lot heavier with a more punk rock vibe, but since I can't play guitar chords to save my life I had to use keyboard instead. Alas... I did however experiment with reverb and double tracking in the mix this time which was a fun learning experience. This song is about having romantic feelings for someone your not "supposed" to and having to hide it. (Shout out to my queer fam!) To The Grave I don't know how much longer I can keep this up I'm hiding my true feelings and shutting it all down Too much longing, too much fire Someone's going to get burned All these feelings spiral out of control Someone's going to get hurt It's going with me to the grave It can't be, but it won't leave It doesn't matter how I feel It's going with me to the grave Secrets are only safe for so long I dread the day the truth comes out Never wanted to hurt anybody And I ache with guilt and doubt The faintest touch, sends a spark Is this real or in my head Fleeting looks, full of meaning I will hold this til I'm dead It's going with me to the grave It can't be but it won't leave It doesn't matter how I feel It's going with me to the grave Sometimes I wish you'd learn to hate me It might help put out the flame Sometimes I wish you'd confirm my worst fear Your kindness is kerosene It's going with me to the grave It can't be but it won't leave It doesn't matter how I feel It's going with me to the grave 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 7 - Tone Matrix - Thread

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 13:49:22 GMT

I’d like to first thank everyone for their kind comments and listening. My dad is thankfully home and out of the hospital. My afib was quiet this week. Buuuut my 2017 iMac decided its hard drive had enough of me. On Wednesday I was trying to be adventurous and revisit the Butch Vig drums that I had in kontakt. I hadn’t used it since WB24 when I made Darkillian’s Peak. Well somewhere in the past year I unwittingly upgraded the Native Instruments loader app which in turn changed how kontakt files were viewed. So on my old OS some libraries were no longer visible. The only solution was to upgrade OS or give up. I prob should have given up in this situation. When I tried to upgrade the OS the HD started acting weird. Long story short. The HD failed. Thankfully I anticipated this debacle and uploaded a track hours before. Thankfully the repair shop I took it too was able to restore the original hd image and will also be installing an SSD HD rather than the old moving parts default hd I had. The scary thing is I do have Time Machine backups and I do have my music and pictures backed up on external. But initially when I tried to Time Machine to the failing hd it was only showing one backup from back ‘21. Soooo I’m hoping everything goes smoove for the repair dude. It’s kind of sad that my whole life sorta resides in this one lil “box” (monitor). My music. My pictures. My memories. It makes me wish I just had a real piano and a 4 track sometimes. But the truth is without the computer I wouldn’t have released an album. I just hope I can get this before week 8. Or you might be hearing an acapellla track or even worse me trying to jam on the harmonica for 60 secs. So I apologize for the sorta slow_trash that is this week and possibly next week. My room feels so empty without the brain (cpu) of my music. Thank you for stopping by. I hope you are all well. Looking forward to this weeks tunes though I might be a lil late as I have no pooter **ginger_waves** PS I couldn't even save a pic into the track or edit tag info because my computer thought it was out of hd space while trying to upload thursday. So I apologize for the less than usual post. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 7 - Stenny - We'll Be Right Back!

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 11:21:53 GMT

Feeling a bit smushed between a variety of high priority obligations like superbowls and birthdays this week, so whipped this up in a delirious haze, which uses all of the fun Max for Live things I've created for the previous 6 pieces in combination with some Ableton presets I put 0 effort into tweaking. As the title says, next week we'll be back to our regularly scheduled programming. Until then... you get this. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - orbit_normal - Batted In The Face

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 06:10:09 GMT

Decided to focus on tweaking the sound of each voice throughout the song instead of just re-using the same voice throughout a track without modifying it. Basically I used the FX lanes on the m8 more. I also experimented a lot with the FM synth on the m8. I recreated some patches I found for Dexed. I picked up an rk006 and have been having a blast connecting the m8 to all my little desktop synths. There is one external synth on this track, but it's mostly m8 instruments. Super excited to try sampling external synths next week! The title is because my cat batted me in the face. She was really pissed that I was ignoring her while I was writing this. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - cstanleyhns - Eroding Sting

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 05:23:58 GMT

I called this Eroding Sting because it started with an Ableton M4L device called Sting 2 which is a good little sequencer that is easily modulated to keep generating different patterns - Added the recently updated Erosion effect within Ableton (Beta) to provide some noise.

Week 7 - Paisleyfrog - The Game

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 02:51:20 GMT

Let's do some orchestral, it’s been a long time. I was deciding where to go after last week and was still in a rock frame of mind. I had been thinking about doing some manner of symphonic metal, so I laid down some harmonized guitar lines and orchestral parts to go with it. That first theme was something I hummed as I was going down to my studio. Was also adding synths, drums, etc. When I was listening to my first day's work, it left me thinking...the guitars aren't bringing anything to the table...so delete them! I decided to go all the way and also remove all synths and drums as well. I think I sometimes lean on noise a little much, so going purely melodic and clean again felt like a big switch :) It's probably been a solid ten years since I've written a purely orchestral piece. Maybe I'll revisit electronic/orchestra (Orchestralectro!) later on this year. The title came from separate comments from my wife and stepkid, who both thought it sounded like adventure/boss fight game music. Sure, why not! Let's lean into it - it's The Game. For the cover art, I wanted to capture the idea of grand sweeping RPG landscapes…where danger is around the corner. I didn’t write the piece with those concepts in mind, but it fits well. Production notes: All sounds are from EastWest Symphonic Orchestra except for one shaker that is from Ra, and ended up with around 35 tracks. I learned that I need to stop using their Play sample player - nothing like opening up your project after the first day's work and getting "a plugin has become unstable. Recover or quit?"….and Recover just loops back to the same dialog box. Managed to fix it by importing to a new project and not closing it again until I finished. Turns out Play is legacy software, and isn't actually supported on Apple silicon. Oops. Been using Play for 15+ years, but I better start using Opus. (I figured out how to switch over the plugins with a minimum of pain at the end of the week. Which is good, I have a lot of old projects I’d like to revisit.)

Playing with a recently acquired Casio MT-220 (round 2 on owning one of these puppies!) and was struck by a desire to make something Caretaker-esque.

This sequencer/synth is really coming along. I'll call it "feature complete" now, but there will definitely be some tweaks. It's sounding a lot more punchy now. I'm also pretty happy with how dreamy the ambient wash at the end of this recording sounds. It is absurdly fun to jam with.

Week 7 - parappayo - Bogging

Wed, 11 Feb 2026 01:08:43 GMT

Some friends I had in high school did this incredibly dangerous thing that they called "bogging" where they went out at night and got lost in the city sewers. Allegedly this one time they didn't make it out until sunrise and felt glad just to be alive. DO NOT DO THIS. Sewer lines can flood with water and/or noxious gas and kill you. I was reminded of this (and a bit terrified) while playing through Alan Wake 2. For this week's jam I went looking through old files to see if I could scare up some original samples and I found parts that I'd recorded a little over a year ago for a track that I never got around to arranging or mixing. It felt like it was worth salvaging, so I put some work into it. It feels "underworldly" to me, and it's made out of leftover parts, so I named it Bogging. It's easy to tell that most of it are the sounds of the Erica Synths HD-01 Perkons. I'm not sure what the vowely bassline is but probably an Access Virus preset. Things get a little out of sync at parts (hence the "wonky" tag) and there's some intentional crackling texture stuff in there that gets utterly drown out in the mix. The awesome delay jam howl uses Arturia Tape-201. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Tue, 10 Feb 2026 20:32:20 GMT

Turns out that Fruity Reeverb 2 is pretty fun to use. It's helping me to get a bit closer to the synth sound that I'm looking for. I'll experiment with some more tools for next time. I used two different synth programs for this, which I think helps it feel more rounded. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - home taping association - in daylight the static is framed by your sadness

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:01:30 GMT

feels like an oddity of a submission this time. was originally wanting something more upbeat. turns out feeling more late period national, which was definitely not the intention. definitely not the pseudo second wave parking lot midwest lofi emo schtick I've been mining so far in WB26. quite rushed overall with a busy week so overall is a little half baked. tried out an old ribbon mic I had this week and my voice seems to like it more than my nt1a from last time (apart from the dodgy note at the end of the chorus) so will keep with that for the foreseeable few submission. probably needs more reverb overall. I'll make sure to douse it next. in open c - need to change this up next week I think. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 7 - mwmwmw - thirst trap

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 00:01:30 GMT

a deeply sardonic, stupid pop song about parasocial sexual fantasy. my spouse called it "easily the most annoying song you've ever made" HA. it's a kind of response song to the 2-3 random "sexy girl" instagram follows/dms i get each month. i wanted nothing derogatory, misogynist, or violent. It's earnest and celebratory. like "wow i can't believe she's into me", pre catfish letdown as a sort of asking... who falls for this? thirst trap was fully produced on a Dirtywave M8 model 2. I even used the internal mic to record the vocals. I did load then up on the computer to run a denoising algorithm (CLarity VX) on them, but just to clear out room noise i can't actually sing the vocal for the hook, but I did my best. so cringe along with me to thirst trap 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I had an idea for a beginning and let it play by an ableton string quartett sample and just developed it further to transform variations of the string theme into digital synths and beats. And at the end i like it, knowing a lot of aspects i could or should further improve. I have no idea of it fits into any genre and if you have an idea, just let me know or just enjoy! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - Pescadito - Patience

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:59:56 GMT

This composition started on the classical guitar, standard tuning with a capo on 2nd fret. I started playing with the percussive sound made by my index finger on the fretboard, which you can mostly notice in the first part of the song. I also wanted to explore some harmonic changes that you can achieve with very small moves on the freeboard. The song is about... patience! and give ourselves a break. Remember that things may take a while to develop and unfold. I had fun setting up the recording of the classical guitar, which I mad with a mix of two condenser and a stereo mic. One small diaphragm condenser was placed as close to the top of the fretboard as possible, trying to capture the percussive sound of the hammer-on. The big condenser was instead pointing at my right hand, with the idea to capture the percussive groove of the arpeggio. The stereo mic (Zoom H1n) was placed a bit farther to capture a bit of the room sound. The two condensers where pre-amplified with a SPL GoldMike 9844. I would have love to start earlier (and not at 18 of a Sunday) to be able to record some extra takes and make additional edits. Especially, I would have taken some extra time to be sure to capture a great singing performance. Well, too late (I uploaded at last minute). So, this is pretty much a rough mix, with very minimal EQ, compression and no time spent on mastering. Most tracks are first takes, no comping. So I will definitely make a new mix of this at some point. Anyway, I'd love to hear your thoughts and I hope you'll still get the idea and some enjoyment out of it. Here's a quick sketch to show the mic setup for the classical guitar. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Hey, happy week 6. I hope you all had a good week. I skipped last week's track to focus on a video project. I didn't end up finishing the project in time for deadline, and I missed the weekly music creation. A good reminder that I like making music each week, but I'm giving myself permission to skip some weeks too. This week I decided to dig through the vinyl crates. Grabbed some samples. Simple slice and chop in Ableton on the Push. Jammed out many parts sitting on the couch watching movies Saturday night. Dub vibes were calling me. All sounds from the various vinyl samples except some of the drums that I played live on the edrums today. Had some fun with effects and mixing. I could have played with this for hours more, but here we go, onward to the next. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:57:40 GMT

Didn't really know what I wanted to do this week. Then we visited friends who have a three-month old baby, who is calmed very reliably by the noise of a hair dryer. Using the ambiguity of the German word »Föhn« which means hair dryer as well as the Foehn wind, I quickly & dirtily wrote a little something around it. The signal horn was caused by a stuck key on my Exquis. Need to fix that, too… First time with the Shure SMV7+, didn't have enough time to properly set everything up so this is just some default setting. I'll play around with it more in the coming weeks :) › Lyrics‹ Lyrics He melts the ice, and dries He spends warmth, and calms He’ll bring the spring He’ll bring the spring Down the slope Dry hair and air And more He melts the ice, and dries He spends warmth, and calms He’ll bring the spring He’ll bring the spring to us Dissolving clouds Out of the house Sleeping noise He melts the ice, and dries He spends warmth, and calms He’ll bring the spring He’ll bring the spring [/lyrics] 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 6 - Dustsucker - Where The Leaves Glow Neon

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:57:07 GMT

Last week I mentioned to someone I'd like to focus more on jazzy leads during Weekly Beats. So of course I end up in the opposite direction with a track heavily focussed on rhythm. Mix is still rough and the ending feels rushed, but the deadline dictates it's finished. Started out with a Korg MS20 and drums from OP1-F, both going into a Drolo Stretch Weaver pedal. The Stretch Weaver is a strange effect which takes the input of one instrument and uses its signal to modulate a bunch of parameters on the other, and vice versa. Recorded some sounds from that setup into M8 and chopped them into a beat. Added a couple random drum samples and used the onboard M8 synths for pads, leads, percussion and wubs. Smidge of mastering outside M8 for some extra shine. Download the M8 bundle 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - laguna - Ciento treinta y dos

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:56:34 GMT

For those who don't speak Spanish, this week's title means "One Hundred and Thrirty Two", the actual BPM of my track. I'm getting out of my confort zone, for sure. I'm a huge, HUGE techno/house lover, though every time I try to dip my toes on the genre the results are quite lame and boring. I'm so used to work on my downtempo stuff, that usually I'm a little bit lost when it comes to building a proper club track. It all started with Renoise version 3.11, the last version which supports 32 bit plugins and also some sort of "baseline" for me. I make all my instruments there so they're portable across multiple platforms. I was messing with a bunch of Roland TR 909 samples from various sources, trying to achieve that punch and swing. I made almost all the beat programming on Renoise 3.11, but then I needed a couple of synths and that version does not support VST3 plugins, so I continued on Renoise 3.4.4, did my best to structure the song until I really run out of tricks to properly compress and limit the track properly. I spent almost all Saturday and Sunday on Renoise and when I finally bounce the project to stems, my trusty Mid 2012 Macbook started behaving funny, mainly because it has 2 hard drives inside and one of them - the mechanical one - is in its last legs, I think. Well, long story short : this was mastered in less than 50 minutes. I'm not really happy with the "chorus" (some FM Dexed patch I created without really understanding all those Yamaha envelopes). At least the basic bassline has some swing IMHO. I wanted to add some other synths here and there, like soft high arpeggios, or even better, a floating pad but... I run out of time. It's quite incomplete, as I see it, but his is Weeklybeats. Any advice on the mix or the arrangement? Suggestions are welcome :) I'll try to catch up with all those great comments. Real life brought me some serious boring stuff I had to take care, and now finally I have a break. You are all wonderful, WB People.

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:52:01 GMT

This one is pretty rough! But it was the best I could do with the time I had today. I had meant to work on something throughout the week this time, but that didn't really work out. I haven't been much in the mood to compose music lately. Not sure why. I have been playing my instruments and practicing music so I'm still playing a lot. I just haven't seemed to have had the drive to create anything original lately. Or maybe it's that I've been prioritizing other things. In any case, I have been thinking a lot about improvisation lately in the context of playing solos, but I thought I would try taking an improvisational approach to composition. This track started with an improvised guitar track that laid out the structure of the tune. From there I added another lead and rhythm guitar track as well as bass. There was a few spots where I tried to get my bearings before recording, but everything for better or worse was recorded in the moment. I also tried to add some drums by using my computer keyboard as a controller and then quantizing it afterwards to get it to line up better. There were some cool spots but it was hard to get things to line up so I made some patterns to use in certain spots. Maybe I'll figure out how to make more real time drums better in the future. Might be time to get some kind of real external midi controller like a keyboard or finger drum pad. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - horatiuromantic - We need an uprising

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:51:20 GMT

Here's this version - piano and spoken word w/ lyrics Here's the piano solo version too. In case you don't wanna be reminded of the topic of the lyrics, you can listen to the piano solo and imagine it's about whatever else you want. PROCESS and THOUGHTS The composition was done last night (out of an impro I didn't record) and today I did a one take impro around it. It's a theme based on a pedal F with Bb-C Eb-F in every octave, then I change the bass but keep the same arpeggio thingy. It's very loose, and there is no particular groove. I also performed a version of it earlier today on acoustic piano at the dancing place, it was fun! Once I had the instrumental, I wanted to make it about something more, so I tried to write lyrics about anti-fascism, killing people in the streets ... etc. I don't feel so good about the lyrics, not because it's not good to say fuck fascism in various ways, but because it's not a very coherent message that can really be received by someone who disagrees with it; and if I make a protest song that only the people who already agree will be receptive to, then what the fuck am I doing? This lack of a clear idea that I wanna transmit is why I don't like the lyrics right now... I feel like there must be a better way to do this, probably need more time to really develop the lyrics. Also, it's not only about the US situation, altho it is definitely a big part of it. It's also about Russia invading Ukraine, Israel bombing their neighbours, and other warmongering nations attacking people who don't deserve to be attacked. So it all weighs on my head while trying to write it, you can hopefully understand why I can't be too coherent about it. It's a struggle and don't you think I haven't been thinking about these issues while I was making fuckin "flower boy" and other fun lil songs, it's just that I can't cope with this global situation and I need to escape and music is my way to escape.... and I fuckin hate that they are invading my happy place but what can I do about it. Anyway hope you enjoy, and sorry to invade your happy place with it too, but it's important to not fall into apathy. › Lyrics‹ Lyrics We need an uprising or we need to play their fucking game. We need to choose with our money and hit them where it hurts: their pockets. Killing people in the streets is not ok. We cannot let ourselves feel apathy. Apathy is a good friend of the evil-doers. Killing people in the streets is not ok. What the hell?! I can't be wrong about this one! People afraid of other people, they think they're coming to get their cookie. Are you fucking kidding me? Fuck your cookie! Lies are so powerful and the truth is so fragile. Lies are infinite, the truth is only one; the truth endures, but it is really vulnerable to apathy. Killing people in the streets is not ok, it's not ok! We cannot let ourselves feel apathy it's not ok. The streets are full of snow and ice. The streets are so cold, but the streets are not full of apathy. The streets used to be beautiful before they started killing people there. Killing people in the streets is not ok. Killing people in the streets is not ok, it's not ok. We need an uprising for those of us who are too scared to fight with our fists, who would rather love and sing and look at the stars. We have many alternatives to destroying each other for money and throwing each other in cages. We don't really need that much money and we have plenty of everything to share. Those of us who know exactly what I'm talking about we try to show the rest of you all the time, but for some reason it is not yet clear enough, our message gets distorted, and you think we're crazy, crazy to imagine that we could be making love in the streets instead of killing each other. We could be dancing in the streets instead of killing each other. We could be making food and eating in the streets. Nice big pot of curry for the whole block with a lot of nice baked bread. We have enough for everybody. Some of you don't believe it but we do. We need an uprising. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:49:00 GMT

Walked by lots of canals and rivers this weekend, and got some recordings too. Felt a bit uncertain of what to do today, so this happened. I won a woodwind instrument plugin a while ago so I used that as an instrument, and some Tamuz breakbeats. The pure saw wave was speaking to me a lot today, and I've been messing about with Vital - pretty happy with this bass sound I got to. The chord progression is a boring/predictable one but I made it have weird timings and added 2 unusual chords as an extension of it to make it feel more like a puzzle to figure out.

Chopping some of my favorite 1923 blues records into as many different genres as I can fit in a week: Bessie Smith on vocals + Fletcher Henderson on keys―both recorded over 100 years ago, now public domain thanks to the Music Modernization Act, Title II. › M8 Nerd Notes‹ M8 Nerd NotesThe sampling in this project relies heavily on the M8 firmware 6.5's new "microtiming" (MTT) fx command, which can shift steps forward and backward in ⅛-tick increments. Shifting backward is magic in itself, but the ⅛-tick resolution is a precision-timing godsend—it almost completely replaces previous methods, like manually repositioning samples' playheads with painstakingly dialed-in combinations of STA±SLI.Being a sample-heavy project, there is a lot of STA/SLI/PIT/FIN munging going on, but especially fine-tuning and re-pitching slices of Ms Smith's vocals and Mr Henderson's Piano (some instances will be obvious, many won't)―if you check out the original recordings from the Library of Congress section below, you'll get an idea of how much sample jankery was involved.› Library of Congress samples used‹ Library of Congress samples usedVocals: Keeps on a-rainin' (1923), performed by Bessie Smith ― License: Public DomainVocals: Mistreatin' daddy (1923), performed by Bessie Smith ― License: Public DomainPiano: Double crossin' daddy (1923), piano performed by Fletcher Henderson ― License: Public Domain› freesound.org samples used‹ freesound.org samples usedAcoustic Guitar Chords by eqavox License: CC0Roseanna sortof REMIX 2.wav by bigjoedrummer License: CC0Rock beat loop 9 - reggae backbeat.wav by bigjoedrummer License: CC0Cymbal (pack) by Sajmund All samples licensed: CC0DW - 17 Crash - 001 (Edit).wav by DanVGC++ License: CC0 100% made and mixed on a Dirtywave M8 Tracker.

I was trying to do two things this week: 1) learn logic pro 2) learn a little about uk garage. i love me some fred again tracks so i was inspired by him even though it doesn't show in the result. I'm unhappy with the end result but happy with the learning. There's not enough variation in the elements themselves but it took most of what time i had noodling with learning logic and exploring sounds. Maybe this is ripe for a second attempt in the future.

Week 6 - jegasus - I Really Like Ice Cream

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:44:51 GMT

### Lore I just really like ice cream, man. ### Production details Well hello, friend! This week was SUPER busy. Thankfully, not due to work. Just the fun stuff! Hahahaha... But this means that I barely had any time to work on Weekly Beats this week, too. So with 1h15min to spare before the deadline, I dug into my SD card and found a project that was about 80% done - most of the melodic and foundational elements were there, but I still needed to complete a few unfinished ideas. So I worked on that for a bit to the point where I felt comfortable calling it an actual song. However, I still feel this is a bit raw, especially in terms of the lack of sonic variety and, most importantly, the transitions from one section to the next. I wanted to have worked on those transitions a bit more to bring more life to them instead of have them just happen abruptly. But alas, the beats must flow weekly. So this one is done for now. I think I actually might come back to this one later in this year and have a remix/updated version because it's just so fun. Also, I think this might be somewhat of a spiritual successor to Ice Cream Rainbow. I don't know why, but something about the major scale/mode used in the song makes me thing of happy upbeat things, and few things make me happier than ice cream, hahahaha... Where are all my mint chocolate chip homies at? Hope y'all have a great week! Cheers, folks!!! Link to M8 Bundle 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:43:15 GMT

Encountered the dreaded experience where you completely forget about WB and you end up cranking something out in less than an hour. 😅 Nanostudio 2 again. I wasted half of my hour budget trying to do something in Pure Acid only to realize that I had no idea how to arrange a pattern into a proper arrangement in that thing. Oh well. Starting to wonder if this iPad-only WeeklyBeats challenge is a stupid idea (it is), but I will persevere. This journal might descent into madness over time.... 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - tuyieu.beats - Chapter 6 - LiveHackt Sonic Battle

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:34:55 GMT

Now inside the cave with all the Sync done, the zknightBros venture forth following their ears to what it seems to be some sonic experiments being held. It's getting louder as they crawl through an opening above, avoiding the PorteiroGuy, surely not eager to make friends. When they reach the other side, they're above all the scenery: two live acts struggling to be louder than the other. Constantly pushing power into their machines, both contestants (or should we say brawlers?) are unaware that the zKnightBros always bring their audio kit and suddenly some cables passing by (they're inside a giant Euroracks system) have a stereo splitter on them and that's feeding into the mixer down there. They both connect the're POs and after a magical PO Sync and pattern choosing, the music hacking begins. This is a LiveHackt! // This one is really a PO battle in the sense that we used two Pocket operators only. And it was by chance we got the two ideas together, forming the story and the subsequent chaos choices we made. Not many ideas, had to go with this one.

First spin with the M8 and I have to say I’m really happy. Switched half way through to Pro Tools, cause I’m not that confident yet to do everything in the M8, but yeah. Quite happy how it turned out. Even though the song probably needs a B-section or something :D 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - muhamor - Spectral Meeting

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:27:30 GMT

Welcome to week 6. Congrats friends, we made it~! -- Story -- Deep in the woods, you have summoned three ancient spirits. You need their advice. The first one to speak is small and somewhat unhinged. An ominous presence. The second one is confident and self-assured. A playful trickster who has a way with words. The last one is abstract and formless. An amalgamation of jagged shapes shifting in and out of focus. -- Production Notes -- This track is a little more experimental. I wanted to push the m8 to not sound quite like the m8. I modulated SO MANY THINGS and tried to find some really abrasive sounds. I also discovered that M8's OTT can do some really funky things to your mix if you're not careful. It definitely helps to spot check your final render. Thanks for listening! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Not really in the mood today (yes, of course I've only started on Sunday), wanted to do other stuff instead.

Week 6 - ViridianLoom - Alice, Alice, Alice

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:25:39 GMT

I've been procrastinating like a mother fucker. I think the result of today's beat is pretty nice but, if I wasn't under the time constraint, I probably would've taken extra time on the vocals to get a better performance. Instead, I just tried my best and layered three versions of my vocals hoping that the least shittiest aspects shine through. Oh, and then used a lot of compression to try to even out the voices. I've been kind of struggling a bit more with singing lately because I'm trying to avoid tension in the throat but I'm finding my natural singing voice tends to lean lower towards the baritone range, which is harder to mix into songs I want to sound dreamy and ethereal. Anyways, negative thoughts aside, I this week's tune is a psychedelic piece inspired by McBaise and Alice in Wonderland. Lyrically I just leaned heavily into the themes of escapism that already exist in the story because I relate to that quite a bit. Maybe instead of reading all the depressing shit on social media every day I could be finding solace in a book. Oh, and I'm pretty happy with how THICC the bass turned out. › Lyrics‹ Lyrics Turn the page on another fantasy Plotting escape from our cruel reality Alice, Alice, Alice Can we drink a cup of tea together and fall asleep Alice, Alice, Alice Convince me that madness doesn’t always mean defeat So here we stand at the precipice of a new land Far away from that place of decay Alice, Alice, Alice Help me see past all ugly things and find beauty Alice, Alice, Alice Could it be that hiding in a story is not the key 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - 52beats - Falling Pluto

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:21:54 GMT

I think this needed more mixing. But I'm happy with how it turned out for a 2-day-ish beat. It started with a piano melody I wrote many moons ago that I never made into anything. Then a lose rhythm formed around it, and I wanted ambience to fill the rest of the mix. Happy it has now seen the light of day. I'll probably work on it more in the future. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 6 - sandyMclandy - Bread and Butter Makes My Heart Flutter

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 23:20:50 GMT

Sketched on MPC and arranged in ableton. The sketch is from a folder called Streets of Rage. That game's soundtrack really shaped the way I think about music. This also has some pretty audible Vitalic influence I think. This week I finished a track that, if I was finishing music to release as a known artist, I would probably have let rest. It's a different atmosphere from what I tend to want to conjure and I found it hard to give the care and attention I felt was required at the end. What are your thoughts on selecting music for release or even just to work on? I think of people like Zappa who just seemed to release everything he made. Then people like Aphex who use multiple monikers to organise their releases into things that go well together, I presume for the sake of branding? Possibly advised by their label. I ask because, like a lot of you, I have a fuck-ton of sketches. Each week I try to work out what to finish. Right now I'm short on time so I tend to go for something that feels like it will need the least work till it sounds like a full track. That means though, genre wise, I jump around quite a lot and I suppose if I was to value my time more highly, I might only work on those sketches that I think align with some feeling I want to convey? In some ways that could be quite boring though. I think aligning to your own "vibe" and sorting your work that way is very algorithm driven and may be the antithesis to art, creation, surprise and experimentation. I think what feels particularly tough with tracks I'm not fully on board with is the very final stage of production. If the track is something I'm passionate about, great. Easy to finish. Worth it. Bordering on fun. If it's not the kind of music I would listen to, it's a total slog to get it over the finish line. And I'm not getting paid for it, so what's the point? With tracks like that I feel like I'm creating a chore for myself for very little reward. I don't think of myself as an aspiring musician. But I am interested in the outlook and approach you have to making music in a world where it's commercial value is tiny. I am disillusioned with the music industry. I've toured with bands. I've been signed. I've written music for all sorts of commercial purposes. I don't say this to boast. None of it has been a huge source of income. I say it to clarify that, I have worked very hard in the past on music that I wasn't passionate about. Worked to the brief of others and supplied them with things they were happy with. The compliments satiate a need for a short time and then the satisfaction fades away. My point with this is, I still want to make music. And I want to enjoy making music. And I don't want to commodify it. Sharing here has been helpful. It's got me considering all sorts of things about making music, head on! As you can see. I'd love to hear your thoughts on, Being an artist Vs Being a musician. Choosing what tracks to finish. Making music aimlessly (not as a negative) Vs Making music with a goal, deadline or brief in mind. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

ok! so, this week i actually wrote a full song with guitar and vocals and i made cover art and everything and it was gonna be soooo sick but then i didn't get a good opportunity to record it. so, i ended up playing bits of the song with acoustic guitar into the mic of my m8 and that spiraled into this "beats" version/remix of the song! i'll definitely record the original for a future week but i think it's funny to have a remix first. everything is a remix anyway! right? coincidentally it's also the first song i've made on the m8, i had a lot of fun with this silly machine and i still have a lot to learn! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - Suhpos - Don't Look In the Fridge!

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:57:17 GMT

This one turned out quite dark and drony. I have been enjoying especially things that have been pleasant and calm this week, so i don't why this came out in this way. Next week maybe i will try to make something a little more bright. I decided to go an excursion this week, to my kitchen, to sample sounds from there and use them in a piece. The are still more sounds out there that i didn't think of when i had the recording equipment there but maybe i return in thee future. All of the samples were used in Phase Plants granular sampler. I sampled my microwave oven which is ended up being the base kind of "organ" sound for the piece. I used recordings of the microwave from two different locations. I think this sound put this project on the darker side as there are two notes coming from the microwave when it turns on with a weird interval (i haven't tried to find out exactly whats going on.) I really tried from the beginning to make it sound consonant, all the buttons i pushed were simple harmonies but i just wanted to be kind of a crying sound i don't know haha. Then i used a sound beating the dishbrush in the sink, i used it to make this kind of random "drum" kind of sound, which also came out a little bit possesed. I'm not sure how well this integrated in the mix, i think it wanted more space. the last sample was the faucet slowly dripping into a bottle with some keytracking bandpass filtering. I also took an impulse response (i just clapped so nothing fancy) from the kitchen which i used for all the reverb in the track. My kitchen is a small narrow room, and sounds pretty much like what people are trying to acoustically treat when they are building studios haha, so i'm sure that didn't contribute to the pleasantness either. I had a lot of fun with the sound design process on this but the result aybe wasn't what i was craving the most... Hope someone else has made something bright and calm this week that i can listen to... 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 6 - onezero - Dovenest

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:53:58 GMT

This past week I took delivery of a new pedal: a JHS Colourbox 10, thinking that could help with the frequency profile in direct recording. (I happened to find a demo copy at a notable discount, so it was worth springing for it.) I tried it out Thursday night, recording the first theme you hear on this one. There are three channels of PureSalem Mendiola, with the center (bridge pickup) not using the pedal, except for the parts at 1:21 and 2:42, which do. Left (neck pickups) and right (both pickups) use the pedal. There's a bit of frequency profile nudging, and a little bit of overdrive in there. The bridge pickup mostly sounded better direct through the UA Volt, except for those couple of rhythm parts. Initially I was going to do something more sparse, but the part at 1:00 showed up Saturday night, and changed the feel of the piece to something more energetic, so I went in that direction. (I had recorded a few more introspective sections that no longer fit.) On listening back, I'm a little uncomfortable at the audible section join at 2:20. And in retrospect I might've gotten a bit zingy with the pedal, but...here we are. There's the usual convolution reverb send here, and the compression/eq on the stereo mix. The title comes from Dovenest Top near Glaramara, with an elevation of 632 m. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Don't know why I'm defaulting to these trance beats? But I seem to be in to it. Been traveling for these two past weeks. Missed last weeks deadline, scrapped that beat and started again with this. Been making chiptunes on my gameboys mostly for the past few years, so it feels fun to dive into my computer again and rediscovering the plugins I've been hoarding and that has been released since I've been 'away'. Produced in Ableton. Shoutout to Serum 2 that made a crazy synth even crazier. Bigger shoutout to Junior by Fors that has some really inspiring presets and has a very good console sound! I also really like the Nudistort plugin I just found the other day and threw in here and there, just scratching the surface on all of these. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 6 - DenaWoods - Bones

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:46:19 GMT

Apologies for the song about mortality, but she wanted to be born this week! It's been a few years since I've sat down with my guitar and played around until the sounds felt like me. This song is deeply personal, and writing it was really cathartic. I've been saying lately that I've stared death in the face the last year and a half. Cancer will make you face your mortality, but it's also gifted me so much. It's made me a lot more bold and reminded me to have the audacity to live my life how I want. Since I'm one of the lucky ones that gets to live, I'm going to do just that. I've never recorded my own guitar overdubs and had so much fun doing this. I may have to learn how to play leads now! I am really appreciating this community. WB has motivated me to be consistently creative and it's been so supportive for the current phase of life I'm in. I am loving discovering who I am as an artist. And I'm really grateful for the community support. Everyone is so kind, and your words mean more to me than you'll know. I am a little behind on comment responses but will be spending time with them this week. Appreciate y'all <3 Lyrics: I am aging in fast forward I am facing my decay All my bones are aching With every step I take And I know It's gonna be this way Back to the earth We're gonna go someday Can't keep up with all the changing I am sad when I'm awake Heaviness resides inside my chest While I pretend that I'm okay 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Hit a new record bmp (154) in the process and put it through the Legowelt Smackos tape emulation plug in at the end for good measure - basically to really convince myself that I'm not trying to mix some sort of masterpiece here. Once again thanks so much for listening if you did! You folks are literally the only people who hear any of my tunes so it means a lot. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - Ruffian Price - Purgatory March

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:26:33 GMT

This took a bunch of attempts to balance right; what I ended up doing is sending the base drum layers to a dummy bus separate from everything else just so I could mix them lower in the main bus without messing up the sidechains I've already had set. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - mzunguko - TUMBLE

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:26:18 GMT

Tumbling on down the road, like a dried piece of brush it feels like some weeks. They blend together in an odd way for me, between work and music, where I long for the day I am left with only the music. I feel like I haven't really settled into the creative groove that I desire quite yet, just working on not trying to force it, I think the drums have a nice push pull funkiness to them and found some nice perc sounds in the TR1000 default library. I truly appreciate all your kind comments! This started with a very basic drum groove, I kept trying to find the right samples in the huge library on the TR1000, I got some patterns I liked, but that took a bunch of searching to find the sound I was looking for (all the way to early Sunday). I swapped the Perkons for the Vermona Perfourma and the bass was born (also double duty on the arps, 2 channels for bass and 2 for the arps). Time for some guitars, lots of tone searching on this one as well as some re-sampling on the octatrack. Found a great vocal patch on Splice to add some interest and finish out the piece. Hope you enjoy! In Lak'ech _mzunguko 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - AiDeRen - Enastyx

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:24:36 GMT

Written entirely on Dirtywave M8 Tracker Light mastering in Audacity (i.e. crushing the wave until it's a flat block of sound). A continuation of last week's track's outro, which was the previous week's intro. I might try and see if all tracks, (a whopping total of three so far), combined together could make something of a concept "album". Same instruments have been used, plus a few more Macrosynth/Wavesynth with LFOs applied for maximum ear wrenching. Didn't intend to make an obnoxious track, but went with the flow and now we're here. Thanks for listening!

Week 6 - MRDRCAT - Don't Go Into the Woods

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:08:42 GMT

This one actually started as a Week 4 project but I couldn't get it to go anywhere. I dug it up this week in the hope I could figure out how to make it work. I decided to do a "walking through creepy woods at night" thing and it just kind of snowballed. Honestly not sure how it happened since all the decisions were made quickly in the past couple days. Lots of listening back to make sure everything seemed to flow okay from one part to the other, get the instruments to at least sit okay (still struggle with mixing) and introduce any kind of variation. The crows are a public domain recording from freesound.org from a user called freethinkeranon. I had to scoop out the city noise, layer it a couple times, and add wing flapping (just flipping around a pair of leather gloves in front of my H6). The roar is a combination of two slowed-down sounds: a belch and a goofy yell I did for a different project. The thunder/wind and walking are my own field recordings. Patches are all original, and the two snares are the only not-me samples. I don't know if it's good, but this one was fun to create! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 22:06:25 GMT

I guess this is week 6. I find myself fighting the M8 a lot, even with simple stuff. I spent too long struggling with Hypersynth, trying to plot chords and then ran outa time. This is something that would only take a few seconds on my other machines. I know this is probably just a user issues but the learning curve is not getting easier. This week was mostly just exploring the new high-res PPQ options. I can make it swing like my MPC now, but I still can't get my head around the hex numbers. One thing I'm happy with is the 'punch' and the overall mix. I think that is starting to get easier. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I didn't have much time this week to begin with, but holy hell the amount of new quality bugs in Logic Pro drained a lot of the two hours I had and my expectations. Never got the guitar out to record anything with it and said fuck it I'm taking my frustrations out in some sort of vocal chant. My son also got in on the fun and came over to yell a bit, the best part of the experience. Never had such a poor experience before in Logic. A crash about every three times I right clicked the playlist. It may be related to I was trying the spatial mixing mode, not sure. The submission is a binaural render. Playing three songs with three groups next week though so looking forward to that, been a while since I've done live performances. This is one of those "earn the habit, not the habit's outcome yet" weeks, both in extracting coffee and beating music xD. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - ModuLoBro - I Threw ICE Into a Trashbin

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 21:53:13 GMT

Again this week, all Deluge, all from a single sound - this time, a few seconds-long recording of me chucking a piece of ICE/snow into a metal trash bin. You can hear the brief source recording at the end of the track, at about 1:44. The track is slow and bittersweet. I had the least time yet to work on this one, so unfortunately it is some sound design, a series of ideas using those sounds, and not super substantial compositionally. But what is there, I like. I especially like the kick, the snare, and the timpani-like bass. Notes: (re)discovered adjustable loop points for sustaining samples, though the Deluge doesn't seem to let you customize the fades. Still, you can zoom in to the sample level to adjust the start/end points, which is great. hit the voice limit but easily fixed that by reducing voices on one of the two pads and slapping a little chorus on it instead. Not the same, but also no biggie.totally cheated on the second pad by making an extremely short loop, resampling it and making that a new synth. Kinda takes the uniqueness and challenge out of the "all one sample" approach, but there were hella overtones in the pitched portion of the original can recording. Sad Downside of Holding Weekly Beats in Even Years: OLYMPICS! I love them! I love seeing humans throw their whole selves at excellence. I love all of it - the obscure stuff and the mainstream stuff, too. And Vance being booed at the opening ceremony. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - alonemusic - They Give You Air

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 21:27:16 GMT

It almost feels like this track is a comeback after a week off, as I got last weeks track done super early as I was out traveling. It's also probably the most 'pop' I've been this year. The first few chords were done last sunday as I was messing with some guitar tones, and I got into a big 'huh this sounds like Slowdive, lets make shoegaze' I also have found myself really getting into (don't laugh) Phil Collins. Nasty man, good tunes. I like that they are very much about something... I then got a bit stuck into the loops, I hope it sounds like it hangs together rather than just variation. It even had words for a bit! But I went out last night to a loud pub so can barely sing and also only had lyrics for the end part. Whatever, I've always liked trying to make instrumental music where you can kinda hear it as a song, but infer the words yourself. The broad theme is this is a love song found while digging up an old research station. Why not? I don't write many love songs. Art: 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 21:22:32 GMT

This week I hardly had any time to work on Weekly Beats! I wanted to make something with a different time signature, but just ended up with triplets (I think that's what they are?). Anyway, I was inspired to make something Celtic sounding that could also work in a film soundtrack. I was a little bit inspired by the work of film composer John Powell of How to Train Your Dragon fame. I wanted to have a main melody played on solo violin - unfortunately I found that the only solo violin I had was a free one that doesn't really sound good at all - oh well! I had to use it. (I was also starting to think I subconsciously stole the melody from Riverdance, but I had a listen and I don't think so.) If anyone recognizes it, let me know. :] I feel like I might be just at the threshold of starting to feel okay about sharing my work that I feel is so imperfect and unpolished - music that I made quickly in flow, just for fun. Sure the violin isn't great sounding, but it's a creative idea and it's still worth sharing. So I will keep creating! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 20:53:54 GMT

This one had momentum early in the week but seems to have petered out in the engineering phase. My initial goal was to do a drum machine plus 303 thing. It gestated with the 909 kit in Maschine. Those loops were exported into Logic. I found a 303 preset in Analog Lab that I started building around. A few shitty sounds and one nice vocal later and here we are. The track title is related to the vocal. It was sourced from a song a couple of old friends made back in the mid 2000s when they roomed together in Buffalo. I hadn't ever gotten around to trying to remix their song, but the vocal lined right up for this project. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 20:42:22 GMT

This was a jam session preformed live into the MPC arranger using Waldorf Protein and an ASM Hydrasynth. After sitting down to work on a different track, I started messing around with the Protein and came across this sweet arpeggiated line that just screamed for me to tweak to taste! and tweak I did ;). The Hydrasynth was no different, found a preset that complimented what I was trying to do and edited it accordingly. This is definitely a track I will expand on much more later. (It normally takes me weeks to complete a track, I am trial and error based not theory based, so coming up with more than just loops is a challenge. But, forcing myself to just get things done in a week is actually pretty helpful in learning a new creative process.) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Put on your costume and join in the festivities of Carnaval! Every year in the south of the Netherlands, people dress up in all sorts of costumes and celebrate Carnaval. They drink (lots) and dance to this very idiomatic variety of polka music. It kinda resembles Germany's Oktoberfest, but not fully. I've been thinking of writing a Carnaval's tune for a couple of years. I also found the idea of getting an M8, but then loading it up with oversaturated brass samples immensely funny, so...here we are! Got sick during the week though, so I couldn't spend as much time on this as I wanted to. Still, hope you enjoy!

I decided to branch out on my normal stretching technique by incorporating elements of the Berlin School of electronic ambient music. I started by creating a MIDI track, that I then stretched in Reason. I added a couple of layers of synths, string to go for a more "String Machine" sound. I then took the bed into Reason, where I added additional motifs. After arranging and adding some mixing, I EQ'd the tracks. I finished with some master effects and mastering. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

So last week i was watching one of Gregory Scott's talk on music production and mixing and he mentioned something that hit home and got stuck in my head. I don't remembre exactly the contexte of the talk but i think it had to do with using references or ways to refresh your ears when mixing to gain a better perspective. The thing that struck a chord for me was the end of one of his sentences: '' ...otherwise you'll end up with a cartoonish version of what you're trying to achieve''. The word cartoonish is probably what best describes the feeling I've had towards my music forever. I think it's part of the learning process when you try to grasp the myriads of technics needed to make electronic music. It's particularly hard to convay emotions with intent and not lose control or focus by fiddling to much with audio processing or by pilling up sounds upon sounds believing that it will make your song sound more intricate or interesting, which in turn yields more mud and confusion than anything. The more i dig in music production, the more i realise that even complex ideas has to be presented as simply and directly as possible. It's a tough concept to grasp when the memories i have of my favorite music is super detailed and mesmerizing. But that's one of the problems, when i write music I often rely on vague memories of certain music style or songs which is how i think I end up with music that end up like a caricature of what I was going for. In any case, the more i train my ears, listen to music intently and keep reference tracks close by when making music, the more i can see when i'm overdoing things...or do I? Haha! Anyways, got back into Future Garage for this one. The track was done in ableton. Sequencing, mixing and mastering. Thanks for giving it a whirl! Cheers! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - GregVK - The Wanderer

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 20:23:05 GMT

This is another one rescued from WIP purgatory! Started it 9 or 10 months ago trying to sample my bass playing. The initial idea was to record bass parts for a full song, and then arrange a song around them, exactly as I’d written them. I recorded into Studio One, edited and did a little light mixing. The I recorded that into my M8 and started writing a drum groove. I quickly realised I could get more interesting parts by chopping up the original lines. Then experimented with layering an M8 synth lead with the bassline, which is where the first minute of the song comes from. And then I got stuck. No matter what I did, I couldn’t find the right progression to finish it off. I abandoned it and came back a couple of months later with a fresh idea. I thought, if I can’t fix this, I’m going to break it and see what else I can come up with. That’s where the rest of the song came from. There were loads of fun resampling experiments (most of which didn’t make the final cut). But nothing seemed to fit. It felt like I was working with 3 or 4 related, but different songs. So I was stuck… again… This week I decided I was going to finish this thing, no matter what. I did! And once again, it involved breaking things. This time, instead of resampling my drum grooves and synth sequences, I had to break my conception of what a song is. I’m a structure-first writer. I like to build solid repeatable sections and then add variation. Even when I’m writing an instrumental, my brain works in terms of verses, choruses, bridges, etc. And yet there isn’t a single section that gets repeated in this song. It’s a wanderer, ambling through the wilderness, with no idea where he’s going or why. As much as I tried, it defied every attempt to wrangle it into some sort of recognizable structure. All I wanted was a chorus, but everything I tried fell flat. Eventually I decided to Frankenstein my favourite parts together, did some aggressive editing (read - throwing out most of what I had), and finally had a working draft. Then it all came down to creating transitions, and tweaking of the initial sound design. --- Weekly Beats is such a great opportunity to work on your chops for your chosen instrument. I’m flying on the M8 (relatively, speaking. I’m probably still a snail compared to some of you guys!) But everything is starting to click. Haha, I’m even starting to gel with the arcane madness of FM synthesis. One of my favourite discoveries is the workflow of resampling my bass playing. For example at around 01:56, I wanted an 8th note pulse from my bass, but didn’t have it with me. So I just chopped my original bass part and pitch shifted it to the notes I needed. It’s funny, because when I’m working in studio, I’d never use a pitch shifted bass part. It feels like the low effort, low quality thing to do, and I’d always rather just re-record whatever I want to change. But by letting go of the need to follow my ideal process, I ended up with something different and interesting (at least to me). Looking forward to hearing lots of awesome music this week. I didn’t get nearly as much time as I would have liked for week 5, so I’ll have to do double this time. Lots of love, GregVK 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - FalseTragedian - Bagel Bagel Bagel Bagel Bagel Bagel Bagel

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 20:21:40 GMT

What's a seagull when it's flying into San Diego? It's a bay gull! Bay gull bay gull bay gull bay gull bay gull! I know, my poetry is absolutely peerless. This is a song that I made up while preparing breakfast. I'm happy that it survived rattling around loose in the empty space between my ears, until I could punch it into the XY for later. I was gonna turn it into an exactly 60-second song. But then I decided to play around with it some more and it ended up twice that. I've learned my lesson, making a song as short as possible isn't always easier! It sounds better like this though. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 6 - Napear - Broken Heart of The Overwhelmed

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 20:17:14 GMT

So I didn't know how much I needed to make this weeks track, until after I made it. For the last few weeks I have been doing a lot of "skill development". Like I've mostly made tracks because I'm trying to get better a specific thing... which adds a lot of cognitive load to the process, you know? So this week I decided to just make sounds... like, to just feel out loud. And... man I had a lot of feels that required a voice. This is a tense time in lots of places, but kind of everyone in the US is running on like 60% energy reserves as a starting place, because of the backdrop of simmering chaos that is our country right now... and I don't know that I have really processed that... ╮(╯_╰)╭ And I think that's what this track became. I don't know if I like the track, but I'm also not sure that it's meant to be "liked"... I don't know, many artsy musing to be said, but I'll spare you my opinions, but it was (maybe ironically) cathartic to just scream into the pillow of music for a day. One note worthy point though, is given the intention to just give voice to my general sense of unease, I started with a sample heart monitor that Tone Matrix shared in the Community Garden (on Discord), that I think in many ways crystalized my feelings. So big shout out to Tone on this one, he is literally the heart of the track <3 ... (୨୧•͈ᴗ•͈)◞ᵗʱᵃᵑᵏઽ*♡ Tone Matrix wrote:... meep meep... 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 20:01:57 GMT

Fell quite ill this week, so I couldn't work on or develop this. It's basically a splice song starter, some chopped drums and a little bit of writing. The vocals were meant to be guidelines, but it is what it is. I've tried to clean it up a little at least. Hope you'll still like it. From up high The wind bears the news of a great and tragic fight For across all the realms of the gods There's a war of the thoughts For all the queens and their spawn And the sun and her noble born stars They all bicker and brawl About who is the second-most fairest of all For in truth Even the divine know they're no match to you Neither Freja nor Venus Could inspire the hearts of mortal men to do The acrobatics that they do so willingly for you And when dawn comes It is because she wishes to witness The breaking of the day as you awake As you awake And when twilight falls It is because she saw How you smile when you yawn And so she forgot how to walk Was brought to her knees And instead she had to crawl Oh you, my sweet love You'll make fools of us all 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - theagainagain - lost in the wilderness

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 20:01:25 GMT

I decided to do this song fully in the box this week. The song is a mix of various soft synths, some samples, and effects. I picked up a midi vst called stepic, which really reminds me of the metropolix. Someone on here was highlighting metropolix sequencer last week, and it inspired me to explore that type of sequencing a little this week. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - dewdrops _tunes - What Should I Do

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:59:11 GMT

I had an entire song structure setup for this with a verse and a chorus and all that. I've been trying to work on structuring my songs better because I kinda just go off vibes and it can be a bit jarring at times. Well unfortunately, I only had chords coming into Sunday and so I ended up ditching most of the structure and doing this, which isn't to say it is bad, but on relisten it is definitely jarring because the intro is trying to take you somewhere you don't end up going. Despite all that, it was kind of really fun to play with the vinyl scratch samples and this came out a bit groovier than I expected it would. Hopefully you all had a great week, excited to dive in and listen to everyone's stuff. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - franky - Take Me Higher

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:56:20 GMT

Week 6, Lets keep it goin! I fixed the ASIO in Ableton Thursday night with the help of two friends, by running ASIO4ALL...I'm in a better headspace now, A huge cloud has been lifted off me. I couldn't sleep knowing it wasn't working. lol SO much troubleshooting just so I can wear earbuds. Anyway, after a long awaited weekend to arrive, I made the outline for "Take Me Higher" on Saturday Morning, then worked on it at night and now finished it up today. I wish I had more time to work on this track but I'm satisfied...till I get to work on music again which may not be till Friday, and I'll be gassed out from the week, so it'll be a test. Happy early Valentines Day to the lovers on here <3 Thanks for listening :) Cya next week! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 6 - GPandAir - Meedeeohcawh Mawnawgaught

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:49:20 GMT

Since I’m just noodling around this week, this one is named after my review of the bad Italian food I had the night before. It’s been a busy month, but wanted to at least submit something and try some experiments while I was at it! The first being drum loops — when I’m looping at home I usually use a Novation Circuit, but these are just the built in drum patterns from my DAW copy and pasted around. It’s not my ideal workflow but it was fun to try. Next experiment was the tones. I’ve been back to using my Zoom CDR-70 pedal to create some ambient textures — so the reverse delays, bleep-bloops, and lofi sounds are all coming from that device, sweetened with a little boss RV-6 reverb. And lastly was creating the bass sound from just sending my guitar going through the Helix “Boctaver” effect. It’s alright. I’m still enjoying having a reason to finish some ideas and familiarize myself with different features in my DAW — and this week I’m ok putting out some “Mediocre Manicotti” 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - OleJazzer - wB6 rpP.MP3

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:48:52 GMT

This piece sort of came to me while I was trying to think of something else to write I was noodling on my acoustic. This is my first really good sounding acoustic. It's a Taylor that has koa wood back and sides. It's an endangered wood. They can only cut when the volcano is gonna burn down the forest anyway. I bought it years ago over 20 years ago when I heard it in a Music store and it was on sale for half off and I have to put it on layaway because that was a little tight for my budget at the time, but it was the best sounding acoustic. God played at the time. It didn't have a pick up on it and that's probably why most people didn't buy it but that is exactly why I didn't buy it. It didn't have its own pick up and I could pick my own pick up to put on it. I didn't wanna cut a hole in a side or anything so I put a Fishman bar underneath. The bridge is very passive pick up that doesn't affect the sound of a guitar at all anyway recording, though seems to be all to the left because for some reason, I recorded it in stereo, but it all went to one side and then when I tried recording in it mono, it still went to one side. I don't know what's going on with this this happened once before about 5 to 6 years ago, I just didn't remember how to fix it. I'm kind of on a time crunch here so this is my composition for this week. I'll fix the recording as I can and maybe I'll be able to put it back up later if they'll let me if I can get this one to do right 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:48:15 GMT

Ahhhh first non-Jamuary Weekly Beat... Got to work on this one over several sessions. Grew organically from the main melody, especially the chorus chords. Still following the Jamuary thought of playing everything live, except for one of the string layers that I MIDIed in. Last thing on the track was the bassline, which is kind of odd for my process. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - neon liminal - orbital cruise (DARKLOVE)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:41:22 GMT

First M8 track of the year, aimed for sorta-retro-dub-techno, landed on retro-deep house. There's just a few too many limitations on modulating the M8's delay to really hit dub-techno out of the box. The title is absolutely a play on words. (btw, M8 tracks get their random-generated titles in all caps cuz they're fun and also makes it easier for me to track them down later lol) Related to that - I'm now helping with the Red Means Recording monthly Discord challenges on the RMR discord, which is a fun monthly song-writing challenge based on a prompt, technique, genre, etc... Last month's challenge was all about granular synthesis, you can watch the stream here: RMR Monthly Discord Challenge January 2026 - Granular Synthesis Many of the challenges are theme-based, but we try to make them as educational as they are fun - last year the Chicago House challenge was one of my faves, it was a genre WAY out of my wheelhouse but I learned a lot and made some awesome tracks. Some of that definitely spilling into this week's song. Which, is also related, because the discord theme for this month is "love" (with plenty of room for interpretation and cynicism if desired lol), and I decided - barring disaster - that I'd theme the next few weeks of tracks as "Love, Sex and Longing in the Void" - space music, and probably space-dub-techno-house nonsense too. On the notes of barring disaster, it's been a bad week, and it's gonna be another bad week, but we will see how we get through it. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - gunnbr - Bells

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:31:37 GMT

I wanted to get away from chip tune style songs this week, but still wanted to focus on the lessons I've learned this year about creating different sections of the song with varying energy levels. So I started off with my other standard M8 technique of using the hypersynth for the chords. I just picked a progression I hadn't used before (i VII iv v), put it in and already it sounded good. Really seemed like a nice FM bell would go well with that, so I found an instrument from trash80's pack that sounded perfect. Added some synth drums in and really tried to change the energy levels, including starting to ramp up the drums before the start of the next section. I also tried a couple new things here that I've been wanting to. I started the intro and first verse in A minor then switched the chorus to be in C major. I even telegraphed that by switching my chord progression to include a C major chord in it that it didn't in previous loops. I'm not sure if any of that comes through well in the final song since my "extra energy" in the chords makes them harder to hear. I added an extra measure to end the chorus. I was worried it would throw off the song, but I really like the way that turned out. Ultimately, I think this songs sounds "okay". I feel like I left the listener hanging at some points, where I could go back and expand on a section to give it more emotion, but I ran out of time. I also feel like I feel into some old habits in my opening and first verse of just repeating everything, but changing one element in each phrase. Finally, I'm a little worried that normalizing this song to -14 LUFS messed with the balance between instruments. It looks like I made the song entirely too quiet to begin with though, so I think the volume boost is necessary. Download the M8 Bundle 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 6 - geopet - Redundant Flavor

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:22:15 GMT

This wasn't a very productive week of music for me as I recovered from Jamuary. I took some time to return to my Elektron space after being away from it for months now. This track is me trying to work with my Digitone II to produce some ambient for an upcoming compilation in the EZBOT discord. I'm not thrilled with this. Even at a very subdued bpm, this feels like it is moving faster than I want. I am also not crazy with how different elements fade in and out or play with each other. There is a lot of work to be done to make this sound the way I want, but it is a track that I made this week, and this is a weekly beat! :D More importantly, I am glad to be working with this fantastic hardware again and just trying to keep a bit of the momentum I built up last month going for this month. Thanks for listening. Have a great week! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - chillyrock - 5: Floral Glare

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 19:08:26 GMT

Tried to use more standard synthwave design philosophy for this - still working on figuring out how to make my songs sound less "default FLStudio" and I think this is a step in the right direction. Having the synth play a note constantly seems to give it a bit more of an undercurrent to help it feel less empty. There's some note changes that I like in here, and some that I don't, so I'll refer back to it to see if I can figure out why I feel the way I do about each. Name is because some of the sections (very) vaguely remind me of a song off of Flora, an ambient Hiroshi Yoshimura album. (If you're going to take one thing from this description, listen to Flora. It's great.) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 18:49:24 GMT

You know those days nothing works out? Well that was this weekend for me, I got sick and the muscles in my arms are so sore from working out to much I've been walking around like a T-rex since Friday. I had to cancel all the socially fun things and I was stressing about weekly beats and how to finish a project while I couldn't stretch my arms. I put on some warming gel and was able to play guitar this evening. I had an idea for a song but it didn't work out so I made a new version of the song For Belle which I made years and years ago for a friend of mine and I recorded it previously for WB24 also under the name New Majula. It seemed simple enough but Ableton BPM automation and warped audio had to make this so much more complicated... Did learn a lot though. Anyway enough bitching, I did my weekly beats, bit sloppy guitar work but it'll have to do. Like David Goggins would say: STAY HARD! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 18:28:38 GMT

I recently heard a few different tracks with tempo variation, so I wanted to try to mess with tempo for this weeks submission. Its a pretty trivial switch, but I think it mostly works. This is another track I didn't start until the weekend, but after finding a vocal sample to chop up a bit, I kinda got into a groove and made this track. I went pretty bass heavy, especially at the down tempo part, and went all over with the higher pitched synths. Everything gets a bit lost in the bass towards the middle, but I still kinda like how it turned out. Synths and start/end drums are all from the M8, but the drums switch to a few samples towards the downtempo part.

The weekly challenge is starting to get difficult now; each week I feel like I come up with a skeleton of a song that could be built upon later (but probably won't), while still bumping up against the same technical hurdles that I don't know how to resolve. Recently I've been writing songs as a kind of creative journal to process current events rather than focusing too much on the details of it. This song I struggled with balancing and cleaning up the bass...I always like bass sounds and put too many in and end up with mud puddle. It could probably also use some vocals/lyrics. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 6 - JaiClone - A Fine Selection of Cheesy Macho Boomer Riffs in E Minor

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 17:43:42 GMT

So, over the last few years, I've gradually built a small collection of riffs quite similar to each other based around the E minor pentatonic/blues scale, and because they're pretty basic, they became a bit of a 'go-to' whenever I picked up a guitar to try out or testing a pedal or whatever. This track is an amalgamation of some of those riffs, built into a song... of sorts... risks were taken and sacrifices were made, but I guess it somewhat works in the end...? Although I identify as non-binary and in no way fit stereotypical masculine vibes, I seem to unintentionally gravitate towards writing rather masc riffs, as this piece demonstrates... *shrug* Also, feel free to mention if any of these riffs are ripping something off, because I wouldn't be surprised. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - skkmkk - Close Encounters

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 17:36:56 GMT

Yet another Sunday without any ideas. Like past two months, I popped Kawai K4 on and scrolled through countless presets. IB-1 ArtOfNoise.syx sounded awesome to begin with - and yeah, it certlainly sounds like Art Of Noise. Some seven hours later I was "ready". The only thing I was opting was to sound similary cohesive like in past few weeks. To build something ambient-esque electronica, like Virgo, The Primitive Painter and Alter Ego to name a few - but also sound like my own. It's looking like I really could make an ep or even an album with this kind of stuff. I think I'll make it happen with my latest moniker Sangen Sees. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - KaZu - Nightfall

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 17:30:53 GMT

Hey everyone! :) I’m still amazed at how some people crank out a track so fast. A pro once told me he can finish one in two hours (without mixing or mastering) like… how?? I’ve spent around 30 hours on this week’s track and I can still hear room for improvement everywhere. How do you guys do it? Do you stick to the same templates, presets, samples, or what? Anyway, here’s my entry for the week. Hope you enjoy it a bit! Cheers KaZu P.S. As always, I’m super grateful for constructive feedback ^_^ I know I’m sounding like a broken record :P 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 6 - Apticx - I could stuff myself with tantanmen until I explode (feat. Huabun)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 17:28:11 GMT

First of all big shoutout to Huabun: https://weeklybeats.com/huabun for playing the rhodes ish solo which i intended to be like a few bars at most but now its pretty much the whole song so yay, less work for me! Besides that this one serves as background music for some youtube videos im working on right now which is the reason for its laid back sound signature and easygoing groove and easy to follow loops. For some reason it was super hard making it sound "low fidelity" because im so used to mixing to "ideal targets". Also shoutout to antler for the comment last week for this amazing name. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

A chiptune that I worked on in LSDJ for a while. It feels like there could be more going on with it, but it's also already kind of busy. I wish I could get some more low-end on it. Just did a bit of mixing in LSDJ itself, and then recorded from my original translucent brick Game Boy into Ardour. Maybe one day I'll do a pro sound mod on it, but I really don't want to mess it up. The thing is ancient. The samples in the bridge were on the version of LSDJ that I have been using since the aughts. No idea what they are from, but they're fun. Anyway, onto the next one. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Week 6 - gify - MIDI Woes Eternal

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 16:53:26 GMT

Spent most of the week trying to get MIDI to work between my sampler and some Roland Aira devices. Never got it working, lol. In frustration, I turned to Bitwig and hashed out this quick melody, then just tried to layer it up. All synths are the Roland S1. There is one granular layer that's the Bitwig sampler with some automation going on. Bit of a higher dynamic range on this one than I'm used to. For mastering, I just used the built-in Peak Limiter device, but I cranked down the response time so it just nips the peaks and preserves the dynamic range. Enjoy! 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Week 6 - boorch - W06: Cargo Run

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 16:48:11 GMT

I feel like this week's tune turned out to be (subconsciously) inspired by Eve Online (which is not the first time tbh), a game I was playing a bit more than a decade ago (which is still alive). It reminded me of times I did very long cargo runs and the unobtrusive soundtrack that was subtle but also communicating some sort of "progress" still. Again made using my own software Dronage Terminal. I love creating random stuff with Dronage Terminal because I'm still fascinated by how melodies can be constructed with just quantised pitch modulation + euclidean sequencing, which sound unorthodox but I guess people have been doing it with eurorack for ages. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - Disposable Planet - Boson Bop

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 16:30:15 GMT

Keeping with the LSDJ and the elementary particle theme, this week is dedicated to bosons, which are not a specific particle but rather the category of elementary particles that governs energy or forces in the standard model. Kept this one pretty straightforward and cheerful. Some panning in the simple intro. The bass is driving and not very complex. The melody is using the same stepwise table that oscillates between duty cycles each time the note is retriggered to create an organic sound to the lead. Lots of bends and vibrato and a few pitch drops at the tail end of long notes. There are some pseudo delayed arps set up at a 2 step delay in the middle. Also it slows down to ska tempo for the breakdown which has a funky bassline using the same electric slap bass LSDJ patch I've used before. Nothing fancy, just a solid chiptune trying to evoke some happy overworld video game theme vibes. Thanks, as always, for listening! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - electronic_tiger - Your Journey Up River | Dark, Ominous Ambient with Hardware Synths

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 16:12:09 GMT

For week 6 I wanted to do something old school cinematic ambient. It's harsh and noise. Definitely taking inspiration from people like David Shire who did the original score for the film Apocalypse Now, before Francis Ford Coppola rejected it. Mixed with what Geoff Barrow & Ben Salisbury did for their rejected score for the 2012 film Dredd. So I dusted off my old synths and recorded each part live. And layer by layer assembled this piece. It's a journey, and not all journeys are pleasant. But they can still be interesting... 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - Tanizaki - The Vents

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 16:07:29 GMT

There are a handful of webpages, now only retrievable through the Internet Archive, purporting to be accounts from people who've made it out of the Backrooms. Amidst the leetspeak and dead links, there are two accounts, posted across several different obscure forums, which carry a strange ring of authenticity. They date from before the existence of numerous Backrooms creepypastas, and both refer simply to “the Rooms”. In both accounts, the posters describe stumbling across a series of deserted ventilation corridors. Deserted, that is, except for distant, echoing voices or clatters, or the fleeting glimpse of a moving shape at the end of a long dim passage. Both accounts take pains to emphasise the unnatural, jerking, off-kilter motion of these half-glimpsed moving figures. Both anonymous posts claim that amidst the hissing vents and churning pipes of the ventilation corridors, they stumbled at last across a means of escaping the Backrooms. Others, they imply, were not so lucky, although when pressed by other forum users, both original posters explained that they did not wish to discuss this part of their experience further. The later of the two posts, dating from 2006, features links to a number of purported audio recordings of ‘the Vents’. Unfortunately, the links have not been maintained on the Internet Archive, and are no longer accessible; merely another casualty of an internet that no longer exists. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - Lizenn - Broken Sixth-Grader

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 15:59:27 GMT

It's the most work I ever did on a track. Having listened and worked hours and hours on this one I'm not sure I actually like it (we'll see in one or two weeks :DD) but I'm proud on the work I did on this. MASSIVE thanks to my close friends Ducky and Yoran who helped me respectively with learning chords theory and Drum/Bass composition. If there's no absurd chords popping and if the drums are that great it's all thank to them. I wanted to make a kinda math rock-ish/japanese rock song this week, because I LOVE this kind of music but I lack the technical knowledge and ability to really be able to do that. But unability is another word for having to work more. I'll never be Tim Hendson but I tried to make someting that sounded good, and sounded close to songs I like. I also REALLY wanted to sing this week again but it took so much work and time to get there that I ended up lacking enough time and energy, too bad. Maybe next time ! I also wanted to really thank you all. All the kind words and advices that this community gave me is such a treasure for me and makes me so happy and just want to keep on going and do more and more. I was always so scared to create and felt just like a shitty musician. I KNOW for a fact that doing is the only way to get better. That what sets me on this goal, but having compliments and positive returns by the amazing artists from this community is starting to make me believe myself a bit more. So a huge, gigantic, collossal, interplanetary thank to all of you. Keep on creating, keep on believing ! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

This synth was made for 8 bit sounds and I love it. The guitar riff sounds come from the OPX-4. The scream is a vocal from Splice.

› cuponoodle!‹ cuponoodle! It's been a long week unfortunately. Musically I struggled a bit to come up with anything outside of a noodle. My dad had a procedure recently that caused internal bleeding and had to have him admitted to the hospital Friday. He should hopefully be home and okay by tomorrow but it's just been a bit hard to concentrate with everything that has been going on. The afib also decided to rejoin the band this week so a noodle it be again. Getting about 1 a week but hopefully down to 1 a month soonish... I wish I had something more productive or substantial to say but this is just one of those weeks. I hope you are all well and keeping warm.

Week 6 - krasher - didn't have cash for chocolate

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 14:00:06 GMT

i'm in Riga this week, and heard the sweetest voice in a chocolate shop. I recorded a bit, but most my recording was ruined by my jacket hitting my phone mic. this 3 second clip was all I got. we waited patiently for our turn to buy chocolate after the old lady, but when we finally got to choose our chocolates and it was time to pay, the shop didn't accept cards. we didn't have cash for chocolate, but we weren't bothered at all leaving the shop without the goods. grabbed some thick crust pizza afterwards and found perfect boots for 5€ in a second hand shop. then we went to an art studio opening and I played ambient i had never heard before. this track is how this weekend felt like! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - Ashtom - Graveyard Of Abandoned Ships

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 13:24:49 GMT

I continue my journey through experimentation with cassette tape recording. This week, I added a harmonic component to the soundscape and brought back the space exploration that I cherish so much (this is one of the main themes of my music production these past few years). I started creating a new patch on the Korg Wavestate, using the 4 layers and focusing each of them on a specific area of the spectrum: woodwind samples for the lows, synthetic pads for the low-mids, strings for the hi-mids and looped bells for the highs. For the harmonic component, I reproduced a technique popularised by Alessandro Cortini (who I mention often to my fellow musician friends) by recording a different note on each of the 4 tracks: C#, E, G and B. As usual, I recorded everything in high speed and then replayed a normal speed, while playing a lot with the faders to introduce a note and remove another. Like last time, I fed the whole in the Golden Master pedal and recorded with the Zoom L-12 (with a pinch of plate reverb to glue everything). I think I really like the result, and I hope you'll like it too! Thanks in advance for your feedback and have a nice week! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

truthfully life is just catching up to me a bit, work is killing me, and i'm packing up stuff to move next month because i'm being evicted. i've got help from my friends, it's just too much for me. this is the first week i've not done a track about Riverdale, and the first week without lyrics, just wanted to write something about home. i listened to a segment about miners strikes in Durham, and it broke my heart a bit, so this is for them. the interview playing over the intro i imagine is hard to understand for a lot of people because of how loud the music is, and also because of the accent. it's a man talking about a 14 year old kid leaving school and coming to work in the pit after his mother was widowed, only to die two days later in an accident. if you are interested in the whole thing, it's here. it moved me a lot. I was working on an entirely different track this week that was upbeat and fun, but when saturday came around i didn't really have the head on me to finish it; maybe i'll come back to that another time when my mood is better <3 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - RPLKTR - Euthymia, Come Back

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 12:24:48 GMT

I welcome all critical feedback. Can relicense if you're interested, just ask. I went to three separate concerts this past week. One of them had this interesting line-up (pictured) where the guitarist was the band leader, and you had your typical bassist and drummer, but then there was a vocalist and a trumpeter, who shared the role of a soloist, very often playing/singing in unison or as a two-voice melody. It produced a unique timbre (listen for yourself!) and the dynamic between the band members was something special, too. For a pianist like myself there was a peculiar absence of any sort of keys. So this week I thought to attempt a tune in a similar vein. A five-part jazz piece. While I'm obviously using digital instruments, there's no keyboardist role in "the band" and voice is an instrument like any other here. The "trumpet" and "double bass" are Osmose. It's quite easy to tell they're not acoustic instruments, but that wasn't really the goal here. I found the timbres pretty satisfying to work with. The drums are a modified "modern jazz" kit on the Yamaha FGDP-50 finger drum pad. And I'm using a Jazzmaster for jazz! I know, sacrilege. Funnily enough, the semi-hollow Acoustasonic Std one I've got is better suited towards jazz than most Jazzmasters, and in fact pretty close to the single-pickup chambered Schottmüller Little Leona that Szymon Mika was using at the concert. The tune's 3/4 since the week number is divisible by three. Chords lifted from a 95-year old jazz standard. Theme and solos my own. ··· 146.66 BPM 3/4, G-major. No AI used in any part of the process. For this year every cover art is a photo I took. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - cTrix - Kapoc (Amiga OCS) (18kb)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 12:14:24 GMT

So, technically I didn't write this this week - but I got it into distributable audio form this week... does that count? (just - yeah - it's been a hard weekend) This is a mixed / mastered version of an Amiga 500 cracktro / demo tune I wrote last year for Syntax. I created this version so I had a properly mixed version of it which didn't exist before today. I actually mixed the wrong version of the tune first time, so ended up mixing it twice (lol). Damn I'm so tired. Anyway, the original tune is 18kb (power packed) including samples, which is pretty small seeing it decompresses on an 8mhz Amiga 500 in less than half a second and plays with < 1% CPU usage (simplified MOD format ftw). It inflates to around 28kb of memory - which is quite a small footprint! A shitty emulator capture of actual demo is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qxDW-rly7GY Samples from: - Alesis XR-10 Drum Machine - Omnisphere (but when on an Amiga, everything just sounds like it's an OG Amiga sample funnily enough!)

Week 6 - lulub4ts - Sock Drawer Dragons

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 11:55:42 GMT

☆ Where are all my odd socks? Darn it! Be there thievery afoot?! Odds are (or evens are, even), you might have a case of Sock-Drawer Dragons. Tiny whispy little wyrms who slip into your bedroom drawers and steal the cosiest of your socks to use as tiny-dragon-sized sleeping bags, woolly little caves of a more modern age. They bring good luck, so don't fret if you lose a sock... you may have gained an invisible friend ☆ Not sure why I imagined very tiny fluffy dragons swirling in a set of drawers as I made this song, but here we go. Made with Lovely Composer again; I learned how to use chords this time (still learning on the program, still heaps to find out). I would've liked to have varied the patterns more, but this is all I could manage in a busy week. (Again, I hope I didn't subconsciously channel some existing song...!) I missed last week. I was vomiting my guts up for an entire 24 hours (after a big night, don't feel too sorry for me) and through the haze, I thought, 'I CAN STILL MAKE A WEEKLY BEAT! I CAN STILL DO IT!'. But then I stopped myself and realised, 'huh, maybe it's better to stop and take care of my body this week so I can make a beat for next time in a stronger way. There's always next week to continue the challenge'. It's good to know one's limits. Still, let's try not to miss another week (•̀ᴗ•́ )و 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

experiencing the world in broken lenses. lsdj ver. 9.4.0, four hours, zero tables. i usually don't try to write anything slow or progressive with lsdj because i don't know chords and things get repetitive pretty quickly. but considering i had like no time this week again, i'd say this is kinda alright. also in the near future once i get a new msd card reader, (my old one broke) i should be able to mod my old 2ds and try making some music with that as well. it's something i have wanted to try out for a while now but have been hesitant to because i am worried of ruining or bricking the console in the process. anyways thanks for listening and reading my yap lol, working on something a bit more happy and upbeat for next week. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 6 - vitjello - Parallels

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 10:50:06 GMT

A downtempo electronic track blending guitars with warm analog-style synths, driven by drum machines and chopped drum breaks. Laid-back, textural, and groove-focused, with a cinematic, introspective mood. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - WahSp - Micros

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 10:37:39 GMT

I focused on making something with the micromonsta 2. I have not had it for very long yet and am still exploring it. I made some patches somewhere during the week and just created a simple chord progression and melody to lay the basis for a track. I wasn't particularly impressed by the result (I didn't really feel inspired this week), but decided to stick with it for this week's submission. I made some drums on the m8, mostly using presets that I made with the FM synth before. Then on the day of the deadline I still had just a few basic ingredients. I spent a few hours making the arrangement and I added one more patch (a simple arp-ish saw). The track did give me some more practice with recording external instruments to the m8. This is easy enough, but I am still finetuning my workflow. I rendered the result to stems this time, such that I can try to do some mixing in Ableton. I did some very basic stuff so far, but won't have time for a deep dive until later. BTW, I noticed there is some clipping in the recordings I made here and there. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - walternormand - Urgency

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 10:25:38 GMT

It's Sunday night and I was supposed to leave the house two minutes ago. I tell myself: "this is all about habit, it doesn't all have to be worth listening to. You're doing this for yourself." Press record and move forward. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - Tomatron.Jones - More Bass Practice

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 09:53:49 GMT

Yet another cram to finish this week's beat since my usual beat-making day is going to be with band recording. I just took some of the bass lines I've been practicing for recording tomorrow and changed them a bit up and threw some samples that I tweaked on top of it. Just some weird punk drums and bass with some weird crunchy synth pads. Not super happy with it, totally out of time, and too tired to care. Unfortunately, sometimes you just gotta ship something you know kinda sucks. * American P-Bass recorded through Scarlet Focusrite 4i4 * Drums and synth pads from Splice * Ample use of Transit, Valhalla * Gullfoss and Ozone Elements for mastering Total time: 2 hours 30 minutes 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - Water_Feature - PADRE

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 09:52:05 GMT

Another short 2-parter. Started off trying to do a Dubbel Dutch chill riddim but it felt empty without a Bad Gyal to rap over it.. so ended up with a White Lotus type thing for the second half. Mostly M8 but subbed in some guitars at the last moment from my woefully underused Prophet X. The 'Padre' tag is a random sample from an amiga folder, no idea how it got on my M8 but there's some fun stuff in there.

Week 6 - Ashen Simian - An affordable Castle, Ghosts included

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 09:50:03 GMT

this week I felt doing something a bit more mysterious, so I did a mid-tempo backing and added some effects and slightly ominous melodies and ancient textures. Well, it did not turn out to be very myteroius, but has a slight spookines in it, I think 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - MAXELL XL3 - fleamarket monozither

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 09:33:32 GMT

Last year, I bought an old zither for 20 euros at a flea market and restrung it using used guitar strings collected over the past 30 years. I tuned the instrument in a loose, experimental way, treating it like a monocord. Getting all 38 strings into an audible tuning took around two hours and produced a semi-good result. This is a recording of the first session. these are chat gbts thoughts about my project: That honestly sounds like a beautiful kind of madness—in the best way. 😄 An old flea-market zither, 30 years of recycled guitar strings, and two hours of wrestling 38 strings into something audible? That’s very much in the spirit of real experimental instrument-building. Using it like a monocord makes a lot of sense, especially with mismatched, used strings. At that point you’re less “tuning” in the classical sense and more negotiating a sonic ecology: tension, mass, fatigue, and whatever moods the metal has accumulated over decades. A semigood result after two hours is honestly a win. A few things that stand out (and might be useful going forward): Used guitar strings are wildly inconsistent in stiffness and intonation, so the fact that you got anything coherent is impressive. They’re great for texture, less for precision. Treating it as a drone / overtone instrument rather than a tempered one is probably the right move. Let clusters, beating, and slow phasing do the work. First sessions like this are often about mapping the instrument: where it rings, where it fights back, which strings want to be friends. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - Kedbreak136 - That Greek Island

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 09:15:21 GMT

Another brutal week! This track was inspired by the Greek Island that appears in the book Sputnik Sweetheart by Murakami. It's an island beyond time, a strange place at the frontier of worlds, where the narrator looks for his lost love. Or maybe his innocence? This track to be honest feels more like the sketch of an idea. There is something there but it needs to be granted more time to emerge. This will have to do for this week. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - tarsiidea - Icarus

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 07:36:43 GMT

Started this weeks track by playing around with generative sequences with Complex-1 in Reason. Recording these out, then chopping up the audio after set the rhythmic basis, and the melodies they formed gave me a sense of flying through space lost in its grandeur, and then realising almost too late its violent and deadly nature. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - glittercritter - 2 Track Slapdown

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 07:33:28 GMT

Spent this week getting to know Glitch Hop. It's not a genre I'm very familiar with, but then I realised I've heard it before and loved it! As the title says, this was made with only 2 channels on the M8 (a personal challenge) so I hope I was able to get the Glitch Hoppy essence. (I love me some low pass filter yoi yoi bois). 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

Week 6 - hieroglitch - 2026_06

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 07:25:18 GMT

Experimentations in eurorack. I'm finding the Dark Matter + Rings combo temperamental and somewhat annoying. I think this week I'll move back to the smaller case with a smaller selection of modules. I really do hate decision paralysis. I like how things evolved over time with this one. There's probably more to say but I'm tired and it's humid. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Week 6 - Dan - WB2606 - Quartet Diversion

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 06:15:00 GMT

This week I wanted brush off my string VST setup, something I haven't touched in many years. I use audio modeling solo string VSTs in combination with a regular midi controller and TEC breath controller. I use virtual sound stage 2 to place the individual parts of the string quartet where they would normally be physically on a stage. For each section I improvised one of the voices, and then looped that while finding complimentary harmonies for the other voices. An enjoyable way to spend a few hours, I hope you enjoy! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - george bowles - Nebulous Peril - Silent Kingdom (george bowles dice game #2)

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 06:13:08 GMT

years and years ago when i first started weekly beats, i began a heavy metal project with elements of death, black, and grindcore. but also art rock, goth rock, and psyche rock. I have been thinking of resurrecting the project, which ended up recording a few albums and a couple EPs and did play live a few times. it was sort of like a solo side project from my main metal band, home recording oriented, that morphed into a band with different lineups. also, this started out as part of a dice game i made for this year, involving 20 instruments, 20 effects pedals, and a d20 (roll of the dice). so what I ended up with for this one was 4 instruments and 4 pedals + vocals. anyhow, there are a few nebulous peril tracks floating around weekly beats over the years, and here's another! I plan a new album soon that will be the most experimental release by this band ye! let's get down to the details of this track... instruments used: fretless 90s ibanez guitar (black) tuned to B on the lowest 3 strings and some kind of open higher tuning on the highest three strings. I used a capo but kept moving it lower and lower as the track went. Yamaha DJX keyboard from the 90s gave it sort of some kind of vintage aspects in the ambient keysboards and the clean beat channel since the DJX does it all. Korg Pandora's Box a vintage multi fx from korg that was ahead of its time because you could fit it in your pocket. for this track I only used it for its drum machine since it was classified as an instrument in the dice game. it was run through an overdrive and a fuzz pedal and is the super distorted beat you'll hear throughout the track. effects pedals: Nux Tubeman this is a really good sounding tubescreamer type of guitar pedal which pushes some near distorted midrange dirt. it was used on both the beats coming from the pandora's box and on the guitar. Devi Ever Aenima fuzz the Devi Ever Aenima fuzz pedal is one of the best pedals i've ever bought. it works good on everything but also has a signature sound. guitar, bass, and even beats. this, like the nux tubeman is on both the pandora's box beat and on the fretless guitar. wampler terraform is a stereo modulation pedal which i used on the yamaha djx keyboard (had to use a stereo splitter cable) which then went into the last pedal i rolled with my dice game system, the tc electronic triple delay so to sum up, the d20 dice game and spreadsheet rolled up a few instruments i own and 4 guitar pedals. i made a track with them, then decided to do vocals over it. I'll probably redo the vocals somewhat, half of it is sort of unintelligible. done on the fly lol. here's the lyrics: Frost-choked lungs in the hollow night Beneath the gaze of a pale dead moon The soil remembers the blood of the old A kingdom of silence, a cavernous tomb No warmth for the weak in this barren expanse Where the roots of the world grow twisted and black The spirit is severed from the flicker of hope And the shadows move forward, never looking back We are the echoes of a forgotten age The ghosts of the mountain, the fire in the ice Through the veil of the void, our voices arise Under the shadow of the iron sky The cross is a splinter, the light is a lie Starlight bleeds onto the jagged stone A coronation for the king of dust History is written in the ash of the burned By the hand of the god that we no longer trust The silence is heavy, a weight on the soul The wolves have grown quiet, the rivers have ceased Only the grinding of celestial gears Awaiting the hour of the ultimate beast Vanish into the gray Dissolve into the dark Let the winter consume The final, dying spark The iron sky descends Cold... Final... Eternity... i don't usually mess with links and code on here so hopefully it works out lol. I'm guessing this is influenced by bands like dodheimsgard and jute gyte 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - Tom Foolery - Train behind glass

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 05:50:57 GMT

Edit: listening back to this on the Monday after it has gone up and feeling less happy with it than previous weeks. Wish I could go back and drop it down, redo the vocals etc etc. BUT this is the joy of weeklybeats! Lessons learned to apply in future! Another busy week so I am doing this on a Sunday afternoon yet again! Guitar in DADGAD tuning, with a capo on the 4th fret. Probably a bit high for my voice. Yet again I got carried away trying to do harmonies, which I ran out of patience/skill with so some are left wanting. Simple bass guitar for texture - couldn't figure out any bass lines that complemented it better. Lyrics are loosely inspired by taking my first ride on the new metro tunnel trains in Melbourne (yes I'm aware that sounds silly, it is). Low-key life-changing to get across the city for me personally though. It's exciting to see something so big happen in your city. It reminds me of when they finally opened the skyrail stations back in the late 2010s. Some highlights from this week: went to see Billie Marten and Maple Glider - incredible what they can do with just their voice and guitar, and also how well they can do both and then do them both at the same time!! Saw a wonderful sunset at St Kilda pier. Ate tomatoes from my garden. Had a very cute ringtail possum visit my courtyard and pose for some photos. My cat keeping me company while I made music. Made very decadent nachos. All in all a very good week. Apologies that I haven't got around to listening to people's weeklybeats this week! I will get to them soon I promise! where is the ground I used to walk on I swear it used to be right by that window these days go so fast I can't help but watch them go past A speeding train behind glass oh it echoes in this chamber an eery silence gathers round oh time feels so heavy when it's buried underground these days go so fast I can't help but watch them go past A speeding train behind glass I walk these streets alongside the boy I used to be and I see ahead the man I could have been as I walk these streets with the boy I used to be and the man I am 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Week 6 - sd_falter - invincible fig

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 05:20:03 GMT

felt a bit creatively blocked last week's entry where i spent alot of time finessing a number of elements of various ableton jams that simply didnt work into a single track. this time went for a hardware jam and minor re-fix approach. kind of a spacey acidy techno thing i guess? was satisfying to just punt out in a fairly rapid fashion. can't tell if its the timbral aspect of using hardware that ends up easier to mould, or whether its simply because i start the project running everything through monitor speakers (when i'm all in the box its usually later at night in headphones) dedicated to the half dead fig in my garden thats made a stellar comeback in recent times. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

...you've found a way in to the Sunken Forest days ago and lost your map I wanted to do something more up-tempo and like OG bclikesyou. Used the mid-west emo tuning (DAEAC#E) and had fun with this one. I spent the weekend at an airbnb with a bunch of my game dev buds.

An improvised piece performed on the Syntrx 2. I performed one take and then improvised another take to that one to create the piece. One tiny string part was added in post but 98% of it is Syntrx.
