    Hello,

    The page is just a list where you can put your soundcloud, etc. links, not a place for actually posting music.

    The creation section is the appropriate place to showcase your music.

  • Thanks @ecou for pointing this out. @ecou is right - the idea of ​​this thread is to collect links to external sources of AB members music and put it on the wiki list - as a small addon to the main "Creation" section. On the other hand an entries informing about added links to the wiki are very welcome :) (If help is needed with edit the wiki, please send me PM).

    @AlterEgo_UK, @jamkee, @waka_x, @ZooBaaDoo - I added you to the wiki list.

    Thanks to @ZooBaaDoo another letter "Z" has been filled :) H, Q, V, X and Y letters are still ready to be populated...

    Thanks to @jamkee, "J" Team has reached 5 members, so... it's time for another poster :D Congratulations @jamkee, @JanKun, @jblock, @Jihi and @jo92346 :D (Ps. only one new member is missing to publish a new poster for "M" Team...) Cheers!

  • Many, many years ago, not long after we embarked on the experiment known as Makunouchi Bento, someone described our music as “music to set fire to your Christmas tree.” We suspect it wasn’t meant as a compliment, but that’s exactly how we chose to take it. For the first time, we’ve let those words kindle our inspiration. This EP is precisely that: “music to set fire to your Christmas tree.” Romanians, perhaps, will understand the title best.

  • Not sure why this popped up. Last post 2022!

    Anyway, here’s my Bandcamp link

  • Hello everyone. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent. It's all so very helpful, inspiring, and appreciated.

    Just found this thread so here are some of my fumbling attempts at music production mostly done on an iPad. Constructive criticism is most welcome. Cheers!

    This is brilliant! I would like to be able to make such a piece of music :) In my opinion it perfectly match the atmosphere of the demoscene. I mean the background music for demos. Think about it :)

    If you could, please share some info what iPad DAW did you use to compose these tracks and what iPad AUv3 sound and effect plugins did you use most often? I would like to get closer to this kind of atmosphere in my music :) Thanks.

    The demoscene is an international computer art subculture focused on producing demos: self-contained, sometimes extremely small, computer programs that produce audiovisual presentations. The purpose of a demo is to show off programming, visual art, and musical skills. Demos and other demoscene productions (graphics, music, videos, games) are shared, voted on and released online at festivals known as demoparties.

    Just had a quick flick through a few of those, they sound like they would be at home on an old Warp compilation, superb! Would also like to hear more about your iOS workflow

  • Hey guys!

    Below is my alter ego, the Flatland Circuitry channel on YouTube. I share my small attempts at playing around with music using my iPad as the tool of choice. Enjoy!

  • Here’s a small curated playlist of stuff I’ve made if you are into dark lofi synth-hop style stuff. A couple are more Ableton than iPad, but most tracks are 100% iPad.

  • @dakti Thank you for including my link on the wiki and also for the info on the Demoscene.

    Before moving to a mostly iPad approach, I used Logic Pro X and dabbled with Ableton Live, with an assortment of plugins by all the known vendors. It's pretty easy to get what you're looking for with such great tools and DAWs. I wanted the iPad to be a smaller/quicker version of that but I find that it's asking too much, at this point anyway. So I decided to break out of my comfort zone & think differently about production approaches/techniques.

    I find that successfully working with an iPad requires a more modular/component understanding and workflow. Instead of using the iPad to create elements that can then be moved to a desktop, I tend to reverse the process and use elements made on desktop inside an iPad app. Samples and stems, mostly. Piecing things together, a bit from this and another bit from that, until all of the pieces can be combined in a way that works. This differs greatly from the one-stop shopping I typically get from desktop DAWs. It came down to having a realistic concept about what the iPad offers, strengths and weaknesses, for producing deeper/more complex music.

    That said, using AUM is my choice of recording environments, followed closely by NS2 for it's midi editing capabilities, and occasionally I dip into LP4iPad/Cubasis for larger stems project mixing. I think Tera Pro is the Omnisphere of iPad production and I lean on it a good deal (also Xinematix). BlocsWave is very useful for conforming elements and doing rough mixes into AUM. Rozeta Suite and really everything from Bram Bos is constantly used. Sugar Bytes Aparillo, Drum Computer & Factory. Rob Jackson's excellent software. 4 Pockets & Audio Damage. All offer amazing tools that I keep going back to.

    I'd like to offer as much info as possible for the benefit/interest of others and still try to keep this as brief as possible, so suffice it to say that, at this point in time, I think iPad tools have come far from just a few years ago while many of the inherent limitations remain and it may always be that way. Using AUM with various delays and reverbs, granular synths like FRMS and Quanta 2, LFOs for modulation, recording entire improved jam sessions & going back and pulling specific parts out & then using them as a starting point, all of it comes together to help achieve this particular sound. Dub-style also plays a big role. See Gravity Coil Riddim, as an example.

    I'm a hobbyist who tries for, but never fully achieves, the results of the big name producers and that's okay. It's a journey & I enjoy the process, the therapeutic aspects, and the sense of satisfaction that comes from completing a challenge and having an idea come to fruition. There are quite a few outstanding musicians and producers on this forum that always inspire me to keep going. I hope my explanation helps you in some way, too.

  • @Gavinski Thank you for listening and the unmerited high praise. And thank you for all of your hard work creating your channel. I'm sure it's frustrating and garners little in comparison to the time and energy it takes to produce your videos but I always look for your demos first when researching various apps. You do an excellent job of balancing information, understanding of the app, and musicality when explaining things. It's a lot easier to sit through a demo that includes an interesting musical setup than it is when the demonstrator just goes plink ploink on a synth. Those are fine too but I find your demos more engaging because you take the time to offer something better in that regard.

    Overall, I start by getting the initial idea into a musical form as close to the conception of it as possible inside AUM. I spend time recording stream of consciousness ideas and react to what is going on. As I told @dakti, I record entire sessions, maybe 10-20 minutes in AUM then go back and extract sections I think work and create another session and start with that, building up the piece running things through reverb/delay/granular send FX strips, sometimes multiple times. I tend to have a lot of fragments laying around from Gadget and other quick sketch apps that I'll use to initially capture ideas. Field recordings and misc samples get granulized and effected into something new. I'll put things in BlocsWave to see how they might fit together and for conforming things to scale and tempo. I use a lot of FAC Alteza/VelvetMachine/Silo and Dubstation 2/OuterSpace 2/Timeless3. I create stems in AUM until I have all the parts then I'll either mix in AUM or move to LP4iPad/Cubasis to finalize.

    The type of deep ambient production reflected on the piece called Subduction Zone, for example, came about from studying Vincent Villius' production approach. As you may know, he records under AES Dana and many will know his music. I'm a big fan of the Ultimae label and the artists affiliated with it. This type of music is essentially the opposite of popular EDM and other genres of electronic music, and I've realized the mindset must change in order to create it effectively.

    This type of Ambient music tends to be about density, harmonics, inversion, mood, texture & territory. Until recently, I typically made straight-forward EDM of one kind or another, so this complex type of production style was foreign to me. (I'm not good with specific genres. I tend to create then after the fact try to see where it fits in terms of category) I'm now pushing myself to learn about microtonal music (shoutout to @elemental for Etonal Studio) & concepts like intervalic structure, as these is at the core of the Ambient music I enjoy most.

    Verse-Chorus-Verse & I-IV-V-I patterns, modes and scales, aren't really used in common ways or all that much in this form. Working from fundamental frequencies, grounding in stasis with very slow modulations, structure not as narrative but as territory/space, all differentiate it from most other electronic music. This type of Ambient music, for me anyway, is about layers, gravity, granularity & slow harmonic movement. It's time in an environment where tension and resolution play a major role as opposed to a story with a linear beginning, middle, and end.

    I'm happy to provide more details elsewhere but for this space, I think this provides a long-winded but hopefully useful overview of the approach I am taking with an iPad. I used trial and error over the course of several weeks to complete Subduction Zone, which is a groping first attempt at a more dense form of Ambient music. Most of the other pieces on Soundcloud were just different ideas grounded in typical EDM production techniques that I'm most comfortable with i.e., industrial, dub, idm, funk, etc. I'm learning as I go and much of what I do needs polish but I enjoy the process despite the amateur nature of the results.

    Keep up the good work, Gav. Cheers!
