I've actively been avoiding burnout by taking a little break. I was hard at work exploring the Analog Four, the Digitakt and bass, and the Heat and at some point realized I wasn't really having that much fun. So I put it all away for a week and played Omori in my free time.
There was this 5 minute challenge over at the elektronauts forums that I thought I'd try to make a video of, but damn that was hard! Kudos to everyone who posted a video there! By the end of my 5 minutes I had a pattern containing a kick, some hihats, and an arp. I gave up on the challenge, but continued working on that pattern and turned it into this track over the next two days.
I ran out of voices and had to put the snare and arp sounds in the same track. The snares were more important to the track so I had them cut off the arp, giving it a way different melody than I intended. At this point I considered adding in the Analog Four, but I could be bothered due to the lack of desk space, extra stuff to set up and more cognitive load to deal with. I was also worried that the extra work would lead to the track never getting finished :P
All audio is coming from the Digitone, with some heavy processing through the Analog Heat and a bit of mastering with Maximus (multiband expander). Everything was recorded in one take, no overdubbing.
Thanks for listening!
