Dark and loud digitakt beat

I made it a goal to learn how to use the compressor with a bit more subtlety. I couldn’t help myself and this track ended up very compressed.

I tried using fine tune instead of notes to make melodies, along with the usual loud drums. All audio is coming from the Digitakt. I used one shot samples for both melodies and drums, and the only thing I added in post was a limiter.

I made a tutorial on how I make the drums: https://youtu.be/YSCrbF-u7gE

Thanks for listening!
