Hi gang! Last minute track, felt a little bit under the weather this week. Would like to spend more time with the track, but i am happy how far i got. :) cheers 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Soundcloud version where I fixed some of what annoyed me when I listened back (replaced instruments etc.) sorry, another rush to finish. not a balanced mix and lots of pokey, harsh instruments. the little vocal at the end was made using solaria in synth v. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I've been meaning to do more weekly beats that leverage recording guitar, bass, and synth to create more of a 'band' sound than just some sample-based producer-y IDM. I recorded some guitar riffs and chords, then some bass on top of a fun 'K-Pop' drum sample from splice. A sort or triplet riff and strum sort of emerged. Then added some synths and other samples and random little ear-candy. It's kind of a fun indie-rock / math rock meets synth pop electronica thing. * Drums from Splice K-Pop samples * Misc samples from Splice * Guitar - Gibson SG guitar recorded through Scarlet 4i4 * Bass - American P-Bass recorded through Scarlet 4i4 * Synths from Ableton Wavetable * Gullfoss and Ozone Elements 10 for mastering Total time: ~4.5 hours 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Music Video So I've been meaning to try to make really "bendy" music. Not sure this really got there. It feels more like "sad and alone on a beach" music to me. Anyway. I used an SP404 for the first time and stared with a bunch of vocal samples for the foundational melody and song structure, but it ended up getting pretty buried after I added synth for texture and low end, two drum takes and lyrical vox. I guess the synth is kinda bendy... but not the way i hear it in my head. Did two drum tracks... one for the left ear and one for the right ear. I really like how the drums turned out. LYRICS Last time. 1000 miles of calm, they wave goodbye and what we really need is kinda hard to fold. If everything was clear, would we even know? Nice try. Until we choose to go. Last time. Unfortunate is all dissolving in the end. Holding pretty thoughts intended for the air. The current came around a perfect undertow where we hide a lovely place to go. I used to know the way (denial). Full years, fist in page. Mouth spilling over with smiles and dirt. In isolation. Hot fudge fuck me. I  just want to I just wanna fall forever. Right into the art of place we cannot see. I hope you'll meet me there sometime. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Didn't had any free time to make music. I was assigned to a different operation base and the week had nice moments while being somewhat hectic. This is a really old (iPad 4 old, I mean) beat I made using a forgotten drum machine for iOS called DM1... I guess this one has more than 12 years, yet I dumped the basic loop in 2025, then added some Max for Live "Diffuse" delay/reverb for the mid and high frequencies and called it a day. An I forgot to mention the original DM1 loop was chopped and rearranged slightly out of pitch / time using Renoise for extra wonkiness :) At least, I guess the beat is somewhat wonky. Thanks to everybody who dropped by. Lots of love to you :) 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Hi Everyone! I'm loving just writing lyrics and singing so here I go again this week. Here are the lyrics: In New York Tomorrow by Aamir Let all the things that could've been pain go I'm going so there's no stepping home And If I end up back It's 'cause I took another step forward I have you to let go I'm gonna let you go I'm not like men Who question, "Why am I like this?" I just live off myself And ask myself "Why?" every now and then I'm not going to be afraid I'm going to be alone Now I'm not alone I freed myself from hope If love got in the way of life It was me trying to feel my way out I wasnt trying to fail We just need to retell All the stories I had myself to tell And how they all just had to melt When I by you was held This love's about me As much as it's about you, I know 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

Spent a lot of time learning to finger drum the little drum break instead of using a sample and then I didn't have time for anything else. Piano reminded me of severance. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Just picked up an old Yamaha PSS-470 today in mint condition, here's a quick workout with it. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

The voyage was just hard enough. Blisters lightly formed. The current no match for our might. Kayaks beached, we explored deep to the center of this high river island. Soft ground covered in goose droppings. The true inhabitants then took flight. A surreal place full of textures and mystery. We interlopers know nothing. -- A little river paddle and island exploration in a new place was a highlight of the week. Recorded and found some sounds Friday, spent Saturday exploring. A little tired and editing today. Enjoying the dubbing. Many new ideas swirling around, hope I can explore more in the weeks to come. -- Hope you all are doing well, staying cool, or warm enough. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Haven't had much time so I made another ambient piece :) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

A lot of years ago I wrote a song called "Silver Screen Murder Scene" and included it on one of my albums. I was never really happy with it, and then today, in writing this song (in an hour, btw), I randomly loaded up an old vocal sample I'd recorded for that song and went, "Alright, this'll work". This is heavily influenced (as usual) by older Underworld tracks circa "Dubnobasswithmyheadman" era. Weird sounds, weird textures, just straight techno. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Hey y'all! Embarrassingly missed last week due to napping through the deadline (lol), but I still did make a song! I'll get it up on bandcamp and post a link. This week I actually got a decently early start and put some time into polish. Pretty happy with the result. I've been learning more about mixing techniques in general and I'm hearing more details in how I can improve things. Feeling inspired! Started this one as a sketch on my M8 and fleshed it out in Ableton. Hope y'all are enjoying summer (and that folks dealing with heat waves are toughing it out alright)! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Another almost raw jam recording. I remember thinking "this feels great" when playing I wanted to cut it ideally to 4-5 minutes, but didn't manage to do it in time, so no cuts x) I can play "it's a post rock" card, right? Gladly I was able to at least do a little bit of mastering on PC. Finally finished rewiring my guitar and tomorrow I'll fix my DAW setup so I won't have any excuses anymore x) And shoutout to @dreat and @lecroquemonsieur for drums and bass :3 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

I tried to use all samples for this one, but the drone is Hypersynth, so I FAILED. Everything else is samples though, including the echoey blorpy noise (a bunch of Rumble of Ancient Times noodling) and the percussion samples from my modded Monotribe. The glitchy middle section is supposed to have a fake weather forecast where the meteorologist's friendly voice incorporates more cosmic horror before throwing back to one of the anchors, but I ran out of time before I could record it. Such is life. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

Du Bist Gut Genug is a song my friend David Nevers played a ton, after seeing a few instagram reels of it prior, and then it became my summer anthem with him, along with another song I want to try tomorrow. Quickly whipped up a beat, hope it's as much fun for you guys! Nationals was super fun, I'm super broke though, Vegas is mega expensive. Won't be able to go back unless if I prep properly! Winging it hurts my wallet. The event itself was great, so many great friends and experiences. Some best friends I hung out with in SoCal and it's been absolutely magical. Have so much more left to do and grow towards! Used a variety of sound fonts and unleashed my inner SiIvaGunner :) 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Nonsensical latin-inspired lyrics, inspirations include the book I'm reading (Ada Palmer's »Perhaps the Stars«), and a few other things of the week. Tried a more techno-style mix with the drums this week.

WELCOME TO THE SECOND HALF OF WEEKLY BEATS 2026! Flipped the beat from last week on the OP-XY; I finally figured out how to slice a sample on it! http://bio.site/orangedrink This is last week's song that I sampled: 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial Share Alike (BY-NC-SA)

at last - managed to get a full track! was initially my attempt to rip off the cure. went back to ableton.  had a nice play around with the safari plugins for some grime 60s vibes on the vocals. think the drums are too loud and it's knocked how everything else is sitting but never mind. was frustrated with the chorus all the way through this.  probably should have just found another pattern but stubbornness prevailed. guitars are in open c 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

Written entirely on Dirtywave M8 Tracker Light mastering in Audacity (normalizing/limiting/compressing). A continuation of last week's track's outro, which was the previous week's outro, which was the previous week's outro, which... (Do not pay too much attention to the following adrenaline withdrawal and fatigue crash down rant.) Got locked in a loop using a few samples with unknown copyright, so had to trash the first two ideas. Time was running out, getting late, had to rush it in the last 30 minutes. What a train wreck, too bad, was really liking the Moby vibe after the intro. Yet another track I'd like to revisit. (Isn't that what I say for almost all of my WBs?)

Yo! This week was very special for me as it was the last week of my younger child at preschool. I'm a melancholic guy and every gap, every important steps in time always has a deep impact on me. For the occasion I finished two tracks that I started with the kids of his class during the year. In February, I went in his class with my Tula mic and my M8, I recorded each kids voice/sound and started to jam with them. They really enjoyed it, and so did I. I didn't worked these tracks until this week, when I decided to finish the composition and share the tracks with their schoolteacher so they could listen to it and their parents could download them. Made entirely with the M8. I really loved to work again with this magical instrument! I didn't had time to make a track in my breakbeat cycle as I was game jamming the whole week end! Ooooh, this week was indeed very special! Enjoy! 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial (BY-NC)

I've given up trying to get good recordings in the basement. I'll turn the dehumidifier off, but the AC has been going like crazy, and you can hear people walking around upstairs. So I'm mostly just embracing it now. I'll clean up what I can, but I like the mix of lo-fi and hi-fi. Or whatever this is. Not gonna lie F#m is stupid. 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

Here's a song for the beauty influencer set. Hashtag #NoFilter. Listen to it while you take a selfie, and remember, if you retouch your photos, beauty becomes even less than skin deep. People say the OP-XY synth engines sound "chiptune-y" so I decided to lean into that and see how buzzy and low-fi I could get them. I should record some 8-bit drum samples, there's none in the factory drum kits. Oh well. I'm still inordinately proud of that drum loop, it's catchy. 2026 CC Attribution Share Alike (BY-SA)

CC always accepted! Got really in my head about this one, instead of letting things flow naturally I forced somethings which I feel made for a worse song - BUT I REALLY like the instrumentation and my use of orchestrated samples. I re-recorded the vocals like an hour and change before the deadline >_> The song was inspired by a news article about a sword that was found in Turkey by a metal detectorist - from close to the end of the bronze age that was found upright, and the oxidation made it look Jade, so I made up a story about The Jade Warrior who gave up after failing a quest and this is his song :) › Lyrics‹ Lyrics I thrust the sword In the ground To face my fate My soul Is bound For hells gates The seers told me that I wasn't chosen but I took my fate in my own hands the one the gods said would save us all he  met my blade and had a tragic fall I pray the gods will have mercy and kill me quick The jade warrior has failed the moniker was meant for the one the prophecy foretold the name I stole The promise of fame and riches made me take the name The seers chose a man too young for the strain I should have taken him under my wings given him a fighting chance with my training I pray the gods will have mercy and kill me quick The jade warrior has failed the moniker was meant for the one the prophecy foretold the name I stole I knew I fucked up the moment I held the blade the weight was wrong and still I stayed I could have helped been a part of the glory my ego wouldn't let that stand And now I'm sorry (Minor) I knew it was a mistake I knew it was wrong I just wanted a little taste of fame And now everyone is gone I knew I needed to prove myself Turns out I spelled their doom I just wanted to be hero Not put them in their tombs I pray the gods will have mercy and kill me quick The jade warrior has failed the moniker was meant for the one the prophecy foretold the name I stole I'm proud of a LOT on this track, and not proud of almost as much, I feel I tried too hard on the vocals - which are generally best when I relax and have fun rather than forcing my voice to sound 'cool' but - on to the next one! 2026 Copyright All rights reserved

A quick trip back to hyperland with a sprinkle of the zipper bass I said fuck the mix I just want loud again :) Also liked the balance of the bass section which I wanted more heavy and dark compared to some of my latest tunes, it worked well until I decided to add some more top end and the zipper bass has made its return just to ruin everything. I promise I'll keep it clean next time, maybe ahahah I hope to mix some of the latest influences into the tracks for this half year, gathering everything learned so far, lets see how it goes! Do you also have some plans for going forward or just going with the flow? Render straight from the m8 <3 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)

i have no idea what i'm even doing anymore. everything the past seven weeks has been very first thought, best thought. not much thought given to lyrics or structure.  just lay it down and put it out. i feel like none of it is stuff i'd ever make. that's a neutral thought. obviously most of this stuff i'd never make without a project like weekly beats. but typically i can point to some other creative work and say that's where that came from. but for nearly two months now, on a sunday afternoon, it's like i turn my brain off and sometime before 8pm there's a new track on my weekly beats page. again these are all neutral thoughts. i'm not for it or against it. just logging it for future me. until next week. 2026 CC Attribution Noncommercial No Derivative Works (BY-NC-ND)
