I wrote another song for Love Tropics again this year and this is it! I've been writing a lot of piano-focused deep house songs this year so I chose that style and worked with the theme of regrowth (hence the name, haha).
There are a lot of ...
2021-10-27 16:01:59 +0000 UTC View PostYesterday was another melodic dubstep stream and I started another song idea. I started building out some foley percussion from field recordings & blended it with some proper dubstep drums. Then I wrote some chord ideas and with some inp...

Another week and another song! I came up with this idea after a few tries writing chord progressions and settling in on something I really liked. The pluck rhythm came to mind and after deciding on a direction I moved on to lay...

Hey everyone!
This song was written on stream back in February. It's a piano-progressive house song in the style of "You," "Dream to Remember," and other similar songs. It's very evocative of Blocking the Sky and while I don't write in this ...

Yesterday was my first stream using Ableton and it went pretty well! I got Ableton 10 last year and it's been amazing for sketching out ideas. I haven't used it as much as I've wanted so I felt it was time to switch things up a...

This week I wanted to write something a little more intense. I started out with a melody and expanded it over 8 bars. I like the melody as it is now, but I think it needs a bit of variation. From there I added more elemen...
