#looptober — Public Fediverse posts

For #jamuary I'm going to spend time each day working on music, but with the goal of creating a composed song intead of just jamming on a loop as I did for #looptober.

My goals are: 1) spend more time making music, and 2) try to identify problems/friction in doing so so I can address them with gear or workflow changes (vs just reloading synthube and GASing for whatever thing is coming out)

This is a composed song, 3:30ish, lo-fi-ish with a groove.

I was on the Dead Code Podcast talking about https://brutrb.com (and a bit about #looptober and synths). Had a good convo about why Brut is currently the way it is and where it might go.

#looptober retrospective!

since numbers are the best way to judge the quality of art and to generally achieve happiness in life, i tallied social media metrics for all my looptober posts across 4 platforms (fedi, bs, tiktok, xiaohongshu)

from this data i computed the absolute worst flops, which serve as a guideline for what kind of music i need to make more of

Props to everyone finishing #looptober! I fell off, but still had a ton of fun.

Final #looptober!!!

I did 31 of these, almost every day. NGL, I probably learned more about my gear than in the past year or so.

I also learned that I don't think I need any new gear, really. I have two mixers, one of which is very large, and so I should maybe get a smaller one, but otherwise, my GAS is low ATM.
