Another track i worked on on a glitchy tip, but this time i wanted something more dancefloor. As always the acapella came after, but seems to fit really well, and i love the original. As you can hear i've used the 2001 space odyssey theme a bit at the start, which was as a result of some pads i used which were vaguely similar, but i think its a works well with the build of the vocal. The kick and snare were very glitch hop influenced and i cant remember much about the drums other than i started with them and wanted to get a basic glitch hop style with a little swing on the groove. The ride cymbal hats are from a really cool loop, which works nicely with the programmed hats when it kicks in i think. The bass and glitchyness was my main practice aim, and im quite pleased with the sounds created for the bass and how it moves around. It's probably a little busy, and i cant even start to imagine how it was all made as it was a week of late night sessions, but it has the neurofunk sound i was hoping for, and with some work on the arrangement and mixing and mastering, i reckon it could be a good one. Anyway another one for early next year as got a few big projects coming up for other people that need have deadlines for Jan 2014. I'll still post the useful tutorials i find, but will have to take a break from making music till their...
