Thnx for listining
Nice to see and hear what others do with renoise, somehow Renoise is quite a underdogā¦not a lot people know it while in my opinion its a very powerful and good daw.
Mostly I hear people use FL ,Ableton or studio 1 these days, I tryed them out all but I stay with renoise.
Hello Jeffrey and welcome. So after 12 years youāve found this forum. I think you wonāt regret it, there are enough users who can help if youāve got questions. This is also my 12th year of using Renoise, so we might have started at the same time. After posting some questions in 2011 I ignored the forum for 7 or 8 years. I donāt know why I came back, but I did. Iāve learned a couple of things, I was animated to deal more with production stuff and I improved the way Iām creating music (especially the quality of sound), and you will do the same for sure. Feel free to ask whenever thereās a question. And donāt forget to post your music here. You will multiply your wisdom, you might gain followers, you probably will find people you like to collaborate with and maybe you could even find sympathetic people you will meet in real life one day, just like in any worthy community. You never know, right? Have fun and create more music or else (sorry, insider).
So tell me, why do so many dutch people adore Gabber and Hardcore Techno? I checked your SC and of course you did a lot of that stuff, too. And yes, Iāve also noticed your Synthwave track. But I think what I like the most is the stuff you labeled āElectronicā like āJust epicā. And I have to say, itās kinda funny that youāve got a track called āEine Bieneā but the picture shows a wasp and not a bee.
Really? Ok then, I assume āReisā is related to āReyesā and therefore it means ākingā, am I right?
In Germany āReisā means āriceā and you pronounce it the same way. Itās a food, not a king.
Letās just call it āElectronicā. If thereās no obvious style itās always simply āElectronicā. Itās something in between Techno and Breakbeat, but without any Electro elements. Feel free to call it āSnarecutā if you want to, itās your style. Your mix doesnāt suck, thatās a good start. And itās obvious that youāre not a beginner. A beginner couldnāt do what youāve done with this track. Especially in terms of the pad at 1:22 and 3:16, which is my favorite part of the track. Iām looking forward to hear more ādrum workā from you even though I donāt know what to expect. More āSnarecutā stuff? Several styles? What style are you producing usually? Anyway, keep it up.
And I have to say, itās kinda funny that youāve got a track called āEine Bieneā but the picture shows a wasp and not a bee.
Thats actually funny you are the first one that notice the mistake hahaha I already know āeine bieneā means ā a bee, but you see a wasp on the picture.
I did notice it after I uploaded it.
But then I also said āaaaaah fck it , leave it like thatā
And the question about the dutch loving gabber/hardcore ā¦I dont know it never gets old to have some hard hitting music now and then.
But to be fair I listen to a really wide variety of music ,country (like hank williams 3 etc) , blues , hiphop (50cnt / nas etc), jazz , all styles of house (hard/minimal/deep/electro), dnb / dubstep a little, reggae (israel vibration , marley etc) , funk is also nice and last but not least psy trance , old 90s early rave and hardcore.
Im always looking for new music to discover , I just like music in general
whatās that vocal synth/speech generator? heard it in many different songs but couldnāt find what it was
Aw man I suck at embedding playersā¦! How do you embed the Bandcamp player in a reply? Pasting the embed code (HTML) in here just inserts a blank box.
Just the url, the preview is misleadingā¦
Thank you ffx much respect, much appreciated.
Long story short - did these last year, tried to leave the guitars out of it and combine acoustic percussion with electronic programming (most of the songs have cajon and programmed percussion for example, plus synthesis instead of layered guitars). I think I started these in Reason 11 originally but developed and completed them in Renoise after moving to Linux.
seriƶse scheiĆe
At the height of the valley
Thereās a sine war
Reaching its limit
Its threshold
And itās finding a body
A life form
But the time it was given is uncontrolled
A light inhibition
My folklore
In Iroquoian
Dry protocol
But Iām in attrition
I need alcohol
I need a destroyer to create Lysol
And I bleed my mind
I scream out your name
In Iroquoian
I play the game
Unrefined
Unashamed
Whereupon my emissary vein
One of the best tracks i have heard in this forum.Loved that you kept it minimal and the singing did not disappoint.At last some singing in this thread exept me and a few others .Start singing people to your tracks even if you dont like your voice,you will get better i promise and there are so many ways these days to correct any mistakes after so give it a go.I am thinking i should create a topic about singing for people to post their own tracks or covers from other artists
Thanks man really appreciate you listening and providing kind feedback.
Singing is something a lot of people are hesitant to try but thatās a shame because thereās so much variation in voices and vox can change a song immensely. Even singers who struggle to sing in tune (early Afghan Whigs and Greg Dulli, non autotuned Anthony Kiedis, a lot of punk vocalists etc) can sound amazing and have brilliant voices that you still want to listen to.
Hell Iām a rubbish singer but I enjoy singing and writing lyrics and when I record I sing the words with meaning and sincerity and if I can pull it off then anyone can
Extra points for vox in mutant breaks 14 rn!
thanks
Here is a little bass track i just uploaded, made completely with renoise
Every good musician is listening to different styles!
You havenāt listed Elektro or Synthwave, my favorite styles. If you want to know Synthwave check this thread, and here you can find a couple of Elektro songs. Of course you can also check this thread right here, there are plenty of different songs made by Renoise users.
Nice song with a surprising title.
Imagine me singing to Acid Electro or similar.
No, singing would ruin most of the tracks. I prefer instrumental songs.
But I can imagine making a Synthwave track with (someone) singing one day.
Thanks for those comments!
Cannot really answer exactly what would be my next tracks genre, since I like to kind of go with the flow mixing all my influences. I have a few demos ongoing, especially one which contains some metal samples (guitars, growls, ā¦) mixed with breakbeats 4x4 rhythms (little slower than this one).
I wanted to make a emotional song, ended up with a song that uses only 2 pianos and a sine wave
(also made in renoise like usual)
also i would love to hear some opinions
I like it both sensitive and emotional .Maybe too much reverb or delay.Use a send channel instead of placing them in the track its self for both delay and reverb if you havent done it in this track.Some eq to cut high feq from the main piano groove and eq to cut low freq from the melody to clean it up.The main piano groove may need some mid freq adjustments, you have to hunt them down with an eq like the video below.The video is about vocals but it is the same about other instruments too.
Thanks for the opinion! Eq was used in both pianoās , I like the sound i made with the piano but iām gonna keep your opinion in my mind on my next tracks. Iām not sure about the send channel thing you told me, will google that.
have made a whole album, something like Neo Folk and Folktronica, like fuimadane or Heilung, etc.
90% of all sounds are self-recorded and absolutely no syntheziser sounds are usedā¦
including didgeridoo, mouth-harp, ukulele, drum, rattles, jingles, field recordings, one of my swords, my voice, etc.
Made this abomination after slacking off for a month or so. Played a lot of diablo, and I think you can hear it
