I played around with the guitar, and after recording a bunch of chords I strung them together into a loop and sampled that into the Digitakt. Even with the power of editing it turned out a bit janky!
I originally tried to record my bass guitar to this track, but I couldn’t get it to play well with drums and guitar, so I used my go-to bass sound and programmed in the bassline instead.
I also made an effort on using the the fill button actively. Thanks for checking it out
Thanks @Ryan! The drums are made from one shot samples from The Lo-Fi Box by Image Line. Bought it back when they shipped physical CDs. I resampled them on the Digitakt itself (and also made a tutorial on how I do it here: https://youtu.be/hQeX_Yugrqo )
My wife and I just bought a house with a concrete cellar. It inspired me to make a creepy beat. I’m working with my usual tricks: drum patterns resampled into a heavily compressed, distorted, and bit reduced drum loop to free up tracks, two simple piano samples, a crunchy bass I haven’t used very often, and a choir sample.
All samples are one shots (except for the resampled drums, which are made from one shot samples), and all audio is coming fromt the Digitakt. I added a limiter in post.
Thanks @ryan, @turbiville and @Scot_Solida! It’s been a long week with moving stuff across Norway and dealing with banks and realtors and stuff. Finally got time to make time for the DT
Thanks @Aksdnt and @Patrick! The drums get really punchy when you add compression, overdrive and bit reduction, then resample them into a drum loop, then add compression, overdrive and a tiny bit of bit reduction to that loop
