Good Day, Steemians
A couple weeks in and continuing to enjoy the user-curated content shared on this collective. Much Love!
I wanted to make a short entry about music, timing, and the differences in said genre's tempos.
Personally, I have induldged in extensive personal conversation about snare placement and its effect on tempo feel.
I often have separate snare tracks: one will be hitting twice a bar and another I can swap out for a half-time effect at one hit per bar.
Not much of a point here.. just explaining logic behind some very basic manipulation with which I have found some neat effects.
In my last post, "Cooking-Up Content" I embedded a track I made from sounds sampled from Netflix
Movie Trailer "1922" - https://steemit.com/music/@theruggle/cooking-up-content
This is a great example of the tempo feel change-up. The sounds and tempos do not change throughout the short track, I merely shifted snare placement in certain patterns.
Again, not much of a point here. I just find myself amused by the simplest of things.
Isn't it neat how the middle-ground in "dub" and "dnb" (the 'u' and 'n') is the distinguishing factor in their short-names; just as the relative middle-ground (snare placement) may very well be the distinguishing factor in the genres 'differences'?
I do realize tempos can vary to every degree even in a single genre. These days every genre seems to vary heavily within; branching into tens of sub-genres each. Regardless, I find some type of zeal to the idea that tempo is further malleable by means of snare placement.
Any who, thanks for reading, perhaps the concept will be a seed for further thought.
I recently got a larger desk space and re-organized my in-home studio. More surface area has allowed more hardware use in an instance. I am seeing this is as a revolutionary step in my production practices. (Chaotic and unorganized picture of my workspace to follow so you can say- "OMG that's improvement?!") hashtag- ghetto :)
Thanks again for all the inspiration. I will embed a track I made last night in this mad little lab. I look forward to sharing more with you.
While searching the 'meme faces' I saw this image that I felt strangely depicted SteemIt in a way:
Hope everyone has a great day. It should be down to freezing temperatures any day in my part of the states. This means a down-season is coming if you are in the Agriculture industry. I look forward to having plenty of time to work on content for you all.
Some of the people I have followed the past few days post on enlightening topics, and I appreciate that. There is not much better than an interactive community to share ideas and inspiration, while having the chance to make an extra dollar or two in tips.
I have been voting everyday even when I do not post. I am slowly accruing SP that I will continue to share the best I can. As I feel some momentum change in an unseen dimension I will invest some coin into powering up. I find much of your content valuable, and want you to know that I am taking steps outside this platform to widen its exposure.
