Jacki-E - Angular (Beat Collective Challenge 23032025)
Update: 2025-03-23
Description
This is my entry for the Beat Collective Challenge of 23rd March 2025 in which participants are given two or three samples with the challenge of including them in an original track.
This month's samples provided by Gary Frank (aka Gairaigo)
Beats - A collection of percussion sounds - starts with a showcase of each sound, then a few bars of them arranged in a pattern. Some of these sounds are cut from DSI Mopho samples. Hi hat sample based on a noise patch from ANA 2 VST synth. Kick is a couple of sounds layered together.
Reverse Pad - started as a standard Pad in ANA 2, added some mid range saturation and distortion, Soundtoys Crystalliser “great doubler” effect, and Ableton Echo (ethereal canyon) for flavour.
I used the Reverse Pad in the intro as part of the build up and in both breakdowns.
I used the percussion sounds in the second breakdown to add tension, automating the EQ frequency and applying Saturation & Overdrive plus a little Reverb. I also put each percussion sound into a drum rack and then used them as ear candy throughout the track.
