Unit 9 Portfolio
For my first track I swerved away from my first four tracks as found an instrument I thought would really work with my style of genre. The Piano was the same as the one chosen for my first track which was the highpass filter and the reverb added on top. This track has a mixture of techniques used in it, from cutting up areas to Fade ins ect. These were to replicate something similar to tracks by Krept and Konan. The 808 is punching through the bottom of the track which was a key area for me as you can imagine, I did that to bring the track something that you really enjoy from the top all the way down.
In this next track I wanted to create something with a sample as the main riff. This was the strings that i found online. They were accompanied by a nice 808 without the roughness that i used on my previous track. This type of sound was meant to sound similar to '67 Red Rum' The way the drums are laid out with a simple beat(high hats and snares) the rest of the track was me playing around with lowpass filters and EQ's. This is a track where i can see vocalists on especially because of how similar it sounds to :

You barely touch upon production techniques. How did the 808 punch through in the mix? What settings did you have on the low-pass filter and how did it suite the instruments you used it on?
