Hi!
I am a novice DubTechno/Techno/House/occasionalBreaks producer at home, DAWless, Elektron-Roland-1010-Volca ecosystem, fairly large setup. Little music theory background. I try to learn a lot. And I do jam at home a lot, although finished songs are seldom since I am a bad perfectionist. Sample+synthesis workflow mixed, I’m open.
However, there is one thing that slows my creativity and find hard to accomplish.
I want to have subtle (sometimes not so) background ambience layer under my music. You know that is sort of the canvas and gives the mood under the heavy percussion bass and chords.
What is the best way to achieve this and the suggested method to approach such operation?
I’m open to a sample packs to buy as well as to do it myself on synths. I have pedals, reverb BigSky, RE-202, have synths like the A4 or SH-01a and also have the Octatrack and Digitakt and perhaps will bus the 1010 BlackBox which I am hooked onto due to the satisfaction with the BlueBox.
Thank you and sorry for asking.
Cheers!
