    Listen to BEYOND LIFE... by COSMSTRUCT. on #SoundCloud
    https://on.soundcloud.com/iEGRD

    I've e not been on here for 7 years... Time is a strange old thing.

    Hope you all don't mind me posting my music on here.

    I've only recently started to make my own stuff. Hard learning curve. The torso s-4 is my most recent machine and it's pretty amazing what it can do. Make all my stuff dawless... Other than inputting samples onto the s-4.

    Any feedback welcome.

    • cruddlewebb! Nice to see you on here again.... and you know how i feel about your music. You are the one who got me into the S-4! You make amazing sounds!mantrakid
    • thats what this thread is for.. well, that and lusting after hardware we cant or shouldnt affordautoflavour
    • Thanks Nate!! You too make the sick sounds! I'll have to try and remember how to post images on here...cruddlebub
    • Loving the ambience. How long do you spend making these?Ianbolton
    • I spend months!! All my stuff is done using Ableton, but I have some hardware im trying to get working in my set up.Ianbolton
    • Depends really. I didn't make anything for a while then bashed out 3 tracks. Now I'm struggling again. Nate (mantrakid) did send me a 10 min sample...cruddlebub
    • That I cut a piece from and used as the main melody for the track B3AUTY... I do use a field recorder for ambient IRL Sounds too.cruddlebub
    • Im dawless, buts only as I have learnt using physical machines as opposed to PC software. I use a dirtywave m8 to record all the live s-4 playing...cruddlebub
    • As samples then lay that down as a track. Sometimes it's just the 4 tracks from the s-4. Other tracks have a bit layered in on the M8.cruddlebub
    • I think with real machines, you just go with the flow, I dont every have a preset sound I want to make, it just happens. I may have an idea...cruddlebub
    • But it rarely ends up sounding how I imagined it to.cruddlebub
    • Same here. I never know where my stuff is going, or often what I'm doing. Love the idea of more hardware jamming. Mort and Auto both recommendedIanbolton
    • I'm thinking of sounds like ingredients at the moment. Like, if i wanna cook something, I wanna know how to make it again if it's tasty AF.Ianbolton
    • I used to cook, proper winging it, then realised some foods are made a specific way because they've evolved over thousands of years. The process is key!Ianbolton
    • Oh for sure, you can try and shoehorn in random other genres but rarely do they go together. But vering out of a steady lane may make you produce...cruddlebub
    • Something you never would of imagined. Music should be freeing. Like painting. It's art. As is cooking. But cooking can be strick.cruddlebub
    • Haha. Everything i do is a mess from start to finish - if i ever finish anything! But i do love the simplicity of hummousIanbolton
    • Lolcruddlebub
    • And Ian, I also have loads of unfinished songs/tracks/sounds...cruddlebub
    • they all lead you somewhere :-)Ianbolton
