Such an inglorious end of year and streak for me. Late submits and missing weeks. Didn't feel like making music in december, my cat died of cancer and it made me really depressed. Started this track a couple weeks ago as an attempt to deconstruct bass of this track - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XRBQ8_kNlM
Arrangement and mixing I'm not proud of.
Was going to start a track for the last week here, but apparently it's not late-submittable for some reason.
So this is my last submission here. Probably upgraded version of it will go to weeklybeats first week. Or maybe gonna find inspiration for another track.
Anyway thank you all for being on this site and streak, these were wonderful and most prolific weeks for me electronic music wise!

Exploration of designing bass from scratch, usual fight on mixing stage which I don't know whether I lost or not. What do you think about bass sound guys?

Footworkish track in the style of Ital Tek(i hope so at least), definitely far from being a completed track, but a promising sketch. In comparison with my first submission here(https://streak.club/p/35817/first-track-here-and-in-ableton-by-miaulement ) , which is by chance also a footwork try, this sketch is clearly a level up! Thanks to this site and all of you guys who keep posting submissions and supporting this streak!

Also I should stop abusing late submitting and produce 2 well made tracks next week without procrastinating till the very end.

An attempt to write a track with only one bitwig's stock synth - polysynth, and without using presets, making all sounds from scratch. Except for drum track, which I originally was going to compose out of stock bitwig drum instruments, but failed and used samples for kick and snare. Hats and cowbells are E-Hat and E-Cowbell bitwig devices.

Also decided to write in dorian mode, never tried it before.

Lead and cowbell are kinda stolen/insiped by this awesome track - https://soundcloud.com/little-scale/dreamer

A couple of evenings spent trying to achieve decent mix, another realization how awful I am at mixing, just don't know what should I do when it sounds bad, blindly tweaking eq.

Picture is just for fun and to remind myself not to spent bunch of time on silly automation instead of actual composing :)

Really late submit. Was trying to make something similar to vim's breaks and boards of canada inspired stuff. But I'm no vim :) It turned out it was a pretty bad idea to take different breakbeat samples with different sound and tempo, repitch them and try to chop and mix together. Should have taken one and work with it. And the track structure is primitive, at this point this track is just a sketch.

On a positive side, I really like how harmony, melody and bass are working together. The part at 1:44 reminds me of my bloody valentine sound and harmony, it would be great to remake this track as a shoegaze song with real instruments, Kevin Shields style guitar instead of pads, female vocals instead of melody.

Scheduled late submit. A local artist Raumskaya organized a remix contest to his track(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhrlM-C2Dbw ) on his youtube channel(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGmrVK_Yn5s it's in russian), and I took all the time till deadline which is today.

Spent so much time on it and so tired of it, so can't even write anything about it.

Made this in bitwig 8-track(got it with computer music magazine 01/2019, originally was going to buy cheap nektar midi keyboard to get bitwig 8track, but found out that I can get it with CM magazine instead, you can still get it despite they say it only worked till 20.02.19).

The whole track is built around harmony and melody from a bitwig library midi clip, I was looking through presets and clips and found this one that I really liked and started to try it with different stuff. Copied the same midi to another track, added random arpeggiator and liked how it sound with some commodore64 sfz, so decided that all other sounds should come from the same pack(which i got from bedroom producer blog if I remember it correctly). Later rendered arpeggiated midi and rearranged parts that I didn't like.

So all tracks are c64 samples except the pad, which actually a preset that came with the midi clip(I only removed the effects and added more FM). I also added modulated bitcrusher on top of it to make it more chiptune :) By the way, modulation approach in bitwig is really amazing, I really like that all stock synths and plugins look really simple due to lack of lfos, envelopes and other noisy looking stuff which can be added in separate really convenient and powerful modulation section.

Now after mastering(i.e. limiting 🐸) I realised I don't like how its mixed, the pad has some unpleasant quality, probably should have done some eq in hi-mids. And the whole mix sounds too harsh even to my taste. But whatever, its sunday night and I should go to sleep.

Also the track asks for some B-section with some other chord progression. I'm gonna return to finishing this track someday...
