This is an unlisted, unfinished piece. Originally started out as a remix for a friend but quickly lost steam when I couldn't get the first drop right. The talking bass is made from a vocal sample that goes "get your hands up". Simply took that sample and threw it into a granular synth. The separate growl bass is made from a dog bark thrown into Skanner, a "wavescanning" synthesizer. I learned quite a bit about making a sub bass with this and how important it is to use a synth that allows you to set the starting phase of the sub at key-on. I'd first tried making the sub with Retrologue which has free-running oscillators and it sounded terrible since the sub would sometimes click and have really inconsistent volume.
For any other info about the other sounds just ask!

SoundCloud says it can’t find this sound when I click it. Maybe it’s marked as private vs. unlisted?

[CharlesFerraro]

Thanks for pointing that out! I just made it public for now.

[Lightbringer]

Cool track! I especially liked the segues from the cinematic intro and outro to the more electronic passage in the middle. It seemed to flow nicely!

[CharlesFerraro]

Rad thanks for taking the time to listen to it. I'm going to take it down now. Think you'll submit a track for February?

[Lightbringer]

Planning to! Might be just the extra motivation I need to hit record more often and finish off some ideas. I’ve become kind of bad about not hitting record even when I have something that might be a keeper.

Excellent, I'm excited to hear your stuff, Lightbringer!
