Hope you enjoy today's new video, I definitely was happy to revisit some footage of a sunnier time! Sampling a bird, a lake, some firewood etc! Watch here :)
I'm also on a new midierror podcast which won't be live for a week but you can be the first to check it out if you like: https://soundcloud.com/midi-error/mm2...
As you may know, I get sent a lot of gear. Sometimes to keep, sometimes just to try out, sometimes for a sponsored video, or sometimes just in the hopes that it shows up somewhere in my content.
This is probably the most extreme example of that, because Eventide straight up gave me an H9000 and basically said "Hope you enjoy!"
Of course though, I can't resist making a video about a $7000 effect unit and trying to figure out how anything like this can be worth $7000?! 2020-12-10 23:01:16 +0000 UTC View Post
Hi! Quite a few videos this week!
Some modular madness, exploring polymeters and the notion of time signatures themselves and how we perceive them: Boop!
And I also released Flip, my new iOS sampler/groovebox! I designed it to be a super fast, fun, and creative tool for wo...
Howdy!
Something that always bugs me is musicians (or even music companies in the manuals for their gear) calling something a "polyrhythm" when it's actually a polymeter. So here's a video about both of those concepts!
Also, I wanted to let you know I'm putting out an app next week. It's called Flip and it brings my sample-based music making process to iOS. (Android might happen in the future if it's wildly suc...
Exciting news!
We've reunited the cast of the very first 4 Producers 1 Sample to try a spin on the concept where this time we each have to make a full track using only sounds from a single synth! Hope you enjoy this challenge as much as we did. It's unlisted until tomorrow so you can be the first to watch!
Links in the video description for everyone's tracks; you can also get a high quality download of mine
Today's video is a special one, not much more I can say! Watch here.
I also dropped this at the beginning of the week - demo of a cool microphone/software combo that converts singing and beatboxing to MIDI live! Check it out.
Also all the music in these videos is exclusive to you for now! High quality downloads at...
This is pretty unlike anything I've ever made before but it was a lot of fun and I love how it came out!
Here's your high quality download of the track:

Hey team! Got two new videos for you. :)
The Google Magenta team gave me early access to this weird thing they've been working on that tries to turn sounds into certain instruments - it's really cool and it's also available for you to try for yourself if you want! Watch here.
I also finished editing something I filmed last winter when I was in LA, a tutorial with Karra and Reid Stefan about how ...
We have a new episode! Every guest is really incredible in their own way, hope you enjoy!
Here are downloads of the tracks:

Here's a little something I started noticing a few years ago, and then it just kept...on...happening...
This is the melodic emphasis of our current decade in pop music and I thought it would be interesting to explore!

Here's a pretty deep dive video into the production of Sparkle Mountain! Breaking down every instrument and all the effects and techniques I used. :) Hope you enjoy!

Hiii!! The Sparkle Mountain music video just dropped and I'm SO PUMPED about it! Come join me in this weirdo rainbow land and you may recognize some other familiar faces as well. :)

Also a few days ago I put out a video about some of the writing process and music theory that you might find interesting:

Exactly what it says on the label - just a couple ways I wish I'd known earlier in my journey on how to make big round 808 kick/bass sounds. :)

Hey everyone! Back with a new video, and a sample pack from this coming soon. There are HOURS of recordings to go through but I think I'll be getting through it this weekend. I'll update this post when it's done. For now I hope you enjoy this weird sound exploration!

Hope this one's helpful for ya! I know I've been focused a lot on production and synthesis related content for the past year, and I'm planning to broaden back out into more songwriting and theory stuff. :)
Sparkle Mountain coming soon get hype!!!
Two new videos in the last few days!
I'm working on a pretty ridiculous and vocal-heavy track so I thought I'd do a video showing some techniques with vocals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hj9W5efs-MI
I also got early access to the new Moog Subharmonicon which is a very unique and lovely piece of kit: https://www.y...
Two big videos this week!
First, some major changes that have crept into the way I approach sound design over the last few years, plus some tips and tricks that might be helpful for you. Enjoy!
And coming out soon but unlisted for you right now, a video about THE HARMONIC SERIES, which is one of the most important concepts in music but doesn't get taught to nearly enough people! 2020-05-07 15:48:00 +0000 UTC View Post
Unlisted early video for you! Something I was messing with that I've never really seen done before so I figured it deserved a video! Hope you enjoy. :)

Happy April, everyone! Here's a song that I teased a long time ago that I'm finally releasing on April 13 - but you get it early! Hope you enjoy, this is truly one of my faves. :)

Hey folks, hope you're staying safe!
With this whole pandemic situation I'm going to try and focus on content that will be extra positive for our community. Tomorrow's video (posting it unlisted here early) will hopefully inspire some new ideas in your creative process. Also had a 4 Producers and a giveaway planned for next month anyhow, so those will fit right in.
I'll be donating a lot of my revenue from March to Direct Relief, who are doing a lot to get medical and protec...

Such a huge range of interesting tracks came in during the last round of my online class, here's me reacting to some I hadn't heard before and offering any advice that came to mind!
Sign up for the course here if you're interested! I'll also be answering any questions about it in the comments. <3
Early video for you!
Lots of cool tracks from artists who used the sample pack I made with Moon Hooch, plus some pretty silly watery sounds. :)
Also attaching the track that Moon Hooch and I made together. Enjoy!

Unlisted at the moment but this is today's video! Hope you enjoy.
The free sample pack is available here - I sent this out early to $5+ patrons however since then I've added about 20 more samples I found so if you got it early you should download it again!
Thanks for being a patron!

Promise it's my last modular video for a little while :)
Next week got some fun traveling / sampling / funk / animals coming up!
Stay magical,
Andrew
Edit: Forgot I produced a full track while making this video, I was vibing out to this for quite a while but whittled down a pretty nice 4 minute snippet of the ambient morphy bells piece. Attached to this post now. :)

Hey folks! Just put up a new video that's been a long time in the making - a big overview of how to understand modular synthesis on a conceptual level. Coming soon I will have a video on how to get started, module recommendations, etc.
And if you're not into modular I also have a video coming soon making music with dolphins. :D
Thanks for being a patron and I'll be back next week!

Hurraaaaay!
Hope you enjoy, and you can download the full tracks attached to this post.
Thanks for supporting!!
Two new videos this week - listening to your music was a fun one, and an update on my hearing loss situation maybe not so much, but I'm feeling good about moving forward. Hope all is well and thanks for being a patron!
