I wanted to do another timed challenge, but this time only allow myself to use a single piano (specifically the 'soft piano' from Spitfire Audio's LABS), and only five minutes to write something. I don't

I wanted to have some guitar jams last night, since I'm trapped in-doors, so I decided to write this little 2 chord vamp in Ableton, and play on top of it. Unfortunately, I don't have a way to connect

I had limited time last night to sit down and write anything, so I figured another timed challenge would be fun. I went with 30 minutes this time, and got on a bit of a roll; this is probably the most

I have nothing new that I really wanted to share; been just exploring a lot of those new synth libraries recently, so most of the tracks I've posted to Soundcloud are sort of just for me to listen to on

This was another attempt to explore more sounds in the ROLI synth library, not a 'full' song again, but I think there are some good ideas here, which maybe I'll use in a future tune. The first two tracks

This is an idea from the other night using more sounds from the ROLI and Strobe2 libraries, included with the 'Seaboard' keyboard I purchased a month or two ago. I think the general idea is cool, but the

I decided last night to take a break from the song I was working on for the last few posts, and try a timed songwriting challenge, and this is the result! I gave myself 25 minutes, and tried to sort of

I think this song is getting close to being 'finished', before I spend some time really working out the mixing kinks. I added one single track, Track 17, which just swells in a single synth, playing a

I continued to work on this a bit yesterday, but I didn't add a whole lot so I wasn't sure if I wanted to do a new update, but I figured it'd be good to document the changes over the course of the next

This isn't finished, but of all the songs I've shared in the last few weeks, I think this is the most 'complete' thus far. The drums are where I need to fill things a bit, at least at certain points, as

This is definitely not a complete song, and I don't love the drums (which only play over 3 small portions of the track), but I love the timbre of the synths, and the build ups/drop offs with the hi-cut

This is a cool little song/idea from last night, using just instruments from Spitfire Audio's LABS library (which are totally free; I highly recommend them for any musicians out there). I was listening

I didn't have anything I really wanted to share today, so I figured it'd be a good time for a throwback. A couple of years ago, I downloaded some new synths and drum packs (I believe from AfroDJmac and

This song came about while I was exploring sounds in the ROLI synth library, which was included with the Seaboard I purchased a few weeks back. One of the two main instruments that provide our chords is

So this is a really odd creation from the other night, using Ableton's Simpler instrument and some samples from a set called 'Kleine Stuecke', made up of a bunch of strange, cassette based samples and

This is a random creation from last night, which started with the drum beat. I just added some effects, and decided to build on top of it. Generally, I like the idea, though I think the tones of the pianos

This is the result of another timed challenge! I alotted myself 30 minutes this time, though, once again, I think I spent a little too much time on really specific, little things, which is a habit I need

I don't have anything new that I feel is worth sharing, so I figured I'd go back and find a throwback tune to use. I went back to one of the first Soundclouds I made, just after I signed up for Steemit.

So this isn't a complete song, more of just a little experiment with various synth sounds in Logic. I was originally going to add some drums, but I kind of like it only being a bunch of synths. Initially,

This is a short, simple little tune that I wrote the other night, which wound up turning out pretty cool. I used only instruments from Spitfire Audio's LABS library, and kept the arrangement super simple,
