ill ramble about the individual tracks of my first album! ill embed the tracks themselves so u can listen 2 it as u read the explanations so like its so awesome u cant believe it ur so excited rn 2 read and listen rn :)
the intro/main arpeggio of this track is a 3osc (fl studio stock synth) with delay and echo... its playin a seventh chord since @ that time i had just learned what a seventh chord is and i thought it sounded really neat
the drums r like roblox soundfont ones i dont know how i thought they sounded cool back in the day but it has a kind of charm 2 it i cant really deny
the other synth is also 3xosc but like way simpler. also its quantized all bad style since it was like my first time usin fl studio 4 a full track that wasnt a short loop
the electric piano was like a really simple soundfont one. like didnt even add any effects 2 it its like the default one. still sounds really neat though
the main synth is also 3osc iirc, its just like a different config. i rlly like it in this track though so ill give it that. it adds 2 the charm
the drums r the SAME roblox soundfont ones but like w/ effects so they sound less bad.
fantasia synth is from sgm n the other backin synth was also 3xosc. i added em last minute since i though track sounded empty w/o smth that wasnt main synth
the 'guitar' solo part is really neat because its like two things playing at once. so it sounds fuller
the first of many uses of the deirdre sample is there.
the limiting job here fuckin sucks ass lol. was one of the first times i ever dabbled with it though so give me a break! o((>w< ))o
was titled after :33 < that thing, inspired by nepetas dialogue from homestuck
first track whose opening instrument isnt a 3xosc synth, its the same piano from All Cats Are Gray but its the thought of originality that counts i guess
synth is still from fuckin 3xosc though, strings r from this guitar soundfont also
drums r from a drum machine n not a soundfont 4 da first time. this l8r became the norm 4 my l8r releases
idk where that mega fucktastic synth that comes in close 2 end comes from 2bh so ull have 2 figure that out by urself :)
was originally the 'lead single' 4 this album 4 very good reason
trumpet sounding thing from earthbound soundfont iirc, background chime-like thing was sampled from some random losers original melody and drums r from roblox soundfont too? not too sure on that last part
fucked up synth is just a sine(?) with some effects OR smth from earthbound i dont remember a lot. i dont remember a lot abt this tracks production in general since i think it took less than a hour from start 2 finish
guitar is from the same soundfont all other guitars in here r from
first instance of background strings on my work
track decays usin automation of a plguin called 'chowtape' :3
named after a city in brazil
fucked up square wave intro... i love it sm
synth that plays alongside it is a basic-ass sine also. rlly simple stuff once u break it down
drums r from roblox soundfont guitar is from da dedic8d guitar soundfont yadda yadda u get the drill already, dont u?
the track just loops 4 some reason before the drum breakdown and new melody part. i find it rlly funny
the drums fade in slightly l8r than the rest of the track
name is portuguese 4 'garden'
another arpeggio intro but with a backing sine
weird synth stuff that hits every beat is just a radnom patch from a soundfont i had. not sure if i still have it anymore
drums r, once again, roblox stuff. i dont even play roblox
the random part that sounds really good was improvised because i wanted 2 experiment more with rhythms
that electric piano is the same one that has been used thorought the album. talk abt consistency!
outro is a normal style sine wave
intro is an organ patch in a random soundfont
backin bass is like the stock bass plugin in fl studio
synth is traditional 3xosc if u missed it
piano is from the lbg soundfont
roblox drums once again
glockenspiel is from the same soundfont as the organ one
the synth strings have some fucked up effects on them, dont remember which ones exactly but i dont think i ever used them before i made that track
the new section halfway through is one of my favorite parts of the whole album
arpeggiated synth was previously used in this album but w/ different effects
deirdre! i love that sample sm im glad i used it a lot
earthbound drums were also used i 4got abt that sorry :(
title and song itself is inspired by this homestuck fic i wrote
first of many tracks to be added later on to the album as refined demos, takes strong influence from the earthbound ost
intro is 3xosc but with delay and chorus so it sounds alien
guitar is the usual soundfont, background synth is also 3xosc, drums r roblox. usual thing
title comes from the melody of the second guitar section, it sounds a bit like 'such a pretty thing, that ill never know'
section with only the drums and synth is another one of my favorite parts of this album
first track w extensive use of automation
both synths are 3xosc, piano is lbg again.
gross beat :)
background synth strings r fantasia i think, drums r roblox ones, guitar is the one used a million fuckin times by this poitn
section w fucked up synth is another one of my favorite moments, specially when deirdre kicks in. 2 think that it was added in post-release bcs i didnt wanna waste ANY demos is rlly funny because theres def worse, less deserving tracks in the album. which is fine, since its a debut.
reverse drums were a last minute addition 2 make track sound more interesting. it notably worked.
the non-automated synth melody is a homage 2 dot flow
titles a pun on maned wolves and manned vehicles, with a sprinkle of cat in there because a) i love cats :) and b) 2 further serve as a triple entendre with the mandela catalogue.
drums r sampled from a beatles song
synth is 3xosc, as always
guitar is the same one used in megalovania :)
bass is the stock fl plugin once again
fucked up synth comes from a soundfont patch
the piano part at the end is from the same soundfont patch as always but i wanna point out how much it clashes with the rest of the track in a surprisingly cool way. idk it sounds neat
end synth is also 3xosc but in a quirkier way since it has more effects, alongside being backed with a really quiet string patch
title is a reference 2 a inside joke :)
opening synths r 3xosc as always <3 love u 3xosc 5evva
bass is actually pizzicato strings from the lbg soundfont
drums r roblox once again
anti-climatic glitch out end is on purpose, since its the penultim8 track n i didnt want it 2 steal much attention from the closer
arpeggio n main melody r 3xosc, drums r drum machine ones
deirdre is there :3
at one point i think like 90% of all instruments playin r 3xosc
last appearance of the infamous Para Variar electric piano in my discography
second arpeggio is sampled from somewhere, not sure from where
the speeding up part in2 an actual consistent melody section is my sole favorite part from this album and one of my favorite moments from my entire discography
really subtle polyrhythm kicks in right before the end :)
