So around the beginning of quarantine right before our official lockdown I found two big boxes of vinyl being thrown out on the street. I had been wanting to make a video showing how I go about making beats on the OT and focus more on that than how it would turn out. It was a continuation of a previous video where I had made percussion sample chains specifically for the OT.

When I went to splice all of the footage together the camera was missing A LOT. I hadn’t realized the way it cuts video to 15min each file. It was some important stuff and the audio was very hard to get back in sync!! So i’ve decided to share the track and a little bit of what I could salvage. I’d like to do this again at some point and maybe go about it differently.

Anyway, hope all is well. Be safe.
Thanks for watching. :slight_smile:

hi @GarrettDeBell
thanks you ! What do you mean ? Effects on drums or on others part of track ?

#213

That track had overt pumping artifacts with the Bass drum. I P-lock the amp envelopes or add it to loops in a daw.

i think, this is my first and last lo-fi chillhop track. too tired to cut and slice samples for this. but the creating process was very pleasant. bit of sound disturbance in this track, but i will make studio tune, of course. please convince me, that such type of sound is still “nice-to-hear” :slight_smile:

Awe thank you. I loved your use of vocal samples. They meshed so well. Plus the swing and rhythmic triggering of the samples was on point.
