At this point i altered the backing synth pads to have an almost hollow echo sound to give it a weird empty feeling. I'm still going to change them a bit messing with the frequencies they're at hard to put into words but they're almost perfect just need a slight tweak I don't know how to explain.
I want to write some new backing melodies to fit into that kind of empty space the hollow sound will create. However at the moment the song is really short especially since I slightly upped the tempo because I want it to have a down tempo club track feel.
But it felt a little too slow to me.
So here we are, I'm likely going to extend the track some and add in some new parts as I do. Giving it more time to be dancey dance and more time for me to write in more complex stuff for backing sounds while keeping the simplistic club feel in the more lead sections.
I tend to make weirdly complex tracks doing experimental noise soundscapes.
But let's be real for a moment.
1.) Experimental Noise is an extremely niche audience.
2.) Experimental Noise is frankly not very good to dance to.
I love experimental music and I love harsh elektro tones. I also love dancing though. So while most of my songs I've fucked around with over the years have been more about harsh noise, I also want\need to get a bit more serious about finishing my album or it's never gonna fucking happen.
So the next 2 or 3 tracks I'm focusing on will likely be new tracks focused more on the club dance\down tempo or maybe even some aggrotech from the early 2ks influence.
I'll get back to bringing old songs up to speed and fixing the mistakes I made in their early production later.
Believe it or not it's way easier for me to write a completely new song now than it is to take those old songs I made weird mistakes creating sounds and bring their production up to better standards.
I was teaching myself to use the software and was experimenting a lot with weird layering and effects but I didn't organize my shit like I do now. So trying to find where I did what is nearly impossible since it's mostly chaos with everything done at complete random. I managed to create some amazing sounds but my lack of organization makes it impossible to remotely understand wtf I did lol.
It's only a shame because some specific sounds I really wish I knew wtf I did because they sound cool as fuck however after years have passed and me paying zero attention to what alterations I made. I'm fucking clueless. At the least I can open the files up and one at a time check every single setting but that's a lot of sounds from lot of songs and who really has the fucking time?
Enjoy the update more to come soon.
Yup.... did... THE THINGS... more THINGS to be done.
