Current sounds, where are they now?

I really enjoy the way that the current sounds thread lets you peak over everyone’s shoulder and see what ideas they’re playing around with. But sometimes we actually follow through on those ideas.

I thought it might be fun for people to post what they wound up with since posting a more or less finished track feels to me to be going against the spirit of that thread.

So to get the ball rolling, I posted this:

This is how it came out:

Great idea for a thread, bonus points if poster links back to the post in the Current Sounds thread?

I recorded this (not really finished, working on it for a live thing) yesterday,

and it started life here

Current sounds coming from your gear - #562 by igtheflig

I guess it didn’t change that much.

Yes!

And yeah, I imagine a lot of stuff isn’t going to be drastically different from the original since we generally like to share things that already are sounding cool. And yours sounded cool from the jump.

Shared this Yesterday in Current Sounds. Just a live take on my iPhone voice recorder. But I have that on HiRes/HQ mode, so I think it’s good enough. Copied a couple of looped bars over as intro, added a subtle fade in and fade out, and set the proper gain with the help of LoudnessPenalty website. Nothing more, but I think the mix was pretty balanced to begin with. I’m starting to enjoy “finishing” tracks in Ableton a bit. Especcially with these very simple songs that require little arrangement choices. Cheers!

nice vibe!
