dj fanelli Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 (edited) Deleted song, I epic failure cause I accidentally deleted my progress on ableton, and the one copy I had the bass levels were just way to high. Fanelli - Sucker Punch 808 Made 808's/phaser saw's/synths in sylenth, snares/percs/tombo's are sampled, then bells and bouncing ball thing in massive. Did it in 1 hour, I would like to use my mic and record some of my vocals and distort the crap out of them and add another layer of sound. kinda like melbourne style. But yeah, it was fun! sure the song itself is whack, but I learned I can do some stuff a lot faster than normally. Sure the bells might be a little to loud, 808 overbearing. but I think I got the imagining and panning for all the sounds decent. I just used auto limit inside ableton to remove unwanted frequencies from the sounds. side chained compressors to open up room for the 808. Though... might of did it backwards.... I was in a rush lol. added some layers/detunes them to give them slight changes while not having to take a bunch of time. Anyhow, next week; anyone down with just using loops and samples, then next week we could do a genre theme and no loops (samples i'll always allow though (one shots/drum samples) only thing We'd have a restriction on is whether you can use completed loops or not. But hey shoot your own ideas guys! remember voting starts tomorrow! so far we got 3 songs all sounding super different. ALSO if you thought it was due Monday, cause I was being confusing about when this is due; then just post the song. We can start voting on tuesday if we get more songs on Monday.

andius Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I have a pretty massive collection of 1 shot samples I've sampled myself from vinyl. I'm down to put together a small sample pack for next week. Link to comment
Bulker Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I'm going to record a 5 second sample so I match the one minute, BRB Link to comment
dj fanelli Posted March 31, 2014 Author Share Posted March 31, 2014 Whoops, i didn't save mine, so I'm unable to turn down the excessive bass. Well that's the life of the 1 hour producer. Next time I'll do better :D, also going to add some vocals with my mic. use like melodyne and vox to make it sound all robot. Also if anyone wants incentive to post here, this thread has like 400+ views, and I notice I been getting a lot more plays on my soundcloud! so join! have fun! You can still turn in today, voting starts tomorrow; then next contest next sunday. prob use andrius stems he's getting ready :D Link to comment
andius Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Late entry: https://soundcloud.com/cyclopianarchitects/slow-thinker Hope reworking an old tune counts :) Just want to get more entries in Link to comment
dj fanelli Posted April 1, 2014 Author Share Posted April 1, 2014 (edited) My votes song that popped = bulker - Cakin (although dq'd for being 5 seconds short buahaha) Song with technique = Anunnaki - Maximum Song that Failed Epicly = Fanelli - 808 Sucker Punch Song that was super chill = Andius - Slow Thinker Overall winner of my votes is anunnaki for having the only song follow the only rule, be within 1-2 minutes long. LOL Andius I enjoyed your song a lot too, but my 2nd vote goes to bulker cakin, his just popped the most for me. But if we were having a chill vote than your's would win. I also deleted mine, because I messed up the bass horrendously, and didn't realize I didn't save my ableton progress... But if anyone wants a replay; it was to much bass, not enough oonc'e So 1 point Annukan 1 point Bulker (who's dq, until he comes back with 5 more seconds) Also post a link for those stems, I'm going to make a new thread for "production battle 2 - [stems][Due 4/6/14]" clean it up, make it look fancy. Ya know, I been getting a lot more views on my sound clouded since we started this battling. Sure I only got a vote by default of the other 2 guys DQ'ing, but none the less next week I will be ready... to take it all... (puts on shades) Edit Andius actually gets bulkers point for the turtle. Am I allowed revotes? I mean look at that turtle. That's the best song cover I've seen yet. Edited April 1, 2014 by dj fanelli Link to comment

andius Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 My vote goes to Bulker Bonus point to fannelli because it seemed like you learned some good things while making your track. On a sidenote: I think that when 'voting' starts, all the songs that were entered should be collected together into one post. Also, I'll put together the sample pack today for next week's competition today/tonight, and upload it. Link to comment
