@Mrfunkedude srsly, I still have Netflix only because of <family>, I just torrent everything else. If I really really like something and want to support the creators Ill go buy a season in some store.

I use a headless #Deluge (both client AND server) node on my blog server set to slowly download stuff at a few hundred kbps. I can remote in from wherever using a client, add a new show to the download queue. Once I've reach my seed ratio, I pull the torrent and rinse it to my media server.

Week 23 of #WeeklyBeats is a collaboration!

@Xjs and I were at #GPN22 two weeks ago and decided to jam together, record some loops, and then have each of us finish a track with that material on his own. The results are

"Goulash"

and "untenrum"

Collabs are fun! I should do more of them. Also, live jamming is too, but setting it up turned out more work than expected.

Enjoy the tracks!

It's week 20 of #WeeklyBeats, and I've produced "Cosine", a chill lofi synth track that feels very ambient-y and a bit mysterious.

I'm not often really satisfied with my WeeklyBeats tracks, but this time I am. I'm enjoying it a lot, actually :) Curious what people think of it.

Didn't have much time this week, so for #WeeklyBeats number 13, I planned to do some kind of short intro/opening track.

I think somewhere along the road it became something different. The second half could probably turn into a complete song of its own …

#SynthstromDeluge only, in about four hours or something…?

With 2½ minutes left before the deadline, I've uploaded #WeeklyBeats track 08, "Headache".

Definitely getting more confident with the #M8Tracker. I love some of the possibilities it brings to the table, especially when it comes to complex sequencing, but on the other hand I find it so tedious to enter notes, even when using MIDI. Let's see whether I find a good way to combine it with the #Deluge and get the best of both worlds.

Okay, so #WeeklyBeats number 5 is "Float", a short (1:08) track that's heavily inspired by the #StrangerThings intro.

New #WeeklyBeats track!

"Chapter Four" sees me dipping my toes into #LoFi territory – and petroleum refining.

This is yet another standalone #Deluge track. It's being carried almost exclusively by #Freesound samples, but after browsing samples for half a day I have to say that sample selection is work, too.

It also made me appreciate commercial sample collections more, because the quality at Freesound is mostly … mediocre.

By the way, here's the track I've produced last week for #WeeklyBeats:

I'm very open to feedback, even if it's about things you don't like, as long as you're not being a dick about it.

Actually producing a real, full "song" on the #Deluge, instead of just a simple beat, and thus the first time using arranger mode. The UX is pretty clever and mostly intuitive.

But I'd love to be able to record automation into it, for filter cutoffs etc., without having to either store that automation in a song mode clip or creating an arranger-only "variation" of the clip.

Like, I want an effects automation _overlay_ of sorts that doesn't modify my clips.
