Now on Patreon: a walkthru video of my Metalheadz song, Legacy.
It’s the song of mine that’s got the most plays (if that matters at all).
I’m going thru the project and showing what’s happening, why, talking a bit about what I think makes a Metalheadz song, the importance of different song sections etc.
Class in session, so grab a classy brew and start making some notes.
Fanu: “Northern Exposure” EP comes out on Metalheadz on Feb 27.
Vinyl and digital preorders open here now.
(yeah, correct, it is a bike in that pic – I took it outside the house an hour ago…we’ve got some snow here!)
So wanted to do a quick update on things to come and what’s been.
You may have noticed I’ve been slightly silent here.
Well, reason is, I was rrrreally fecking sick with some monsterous influenza for a while. Didn’t leave home for 10 days and I didn’t know I could cough like that, and hearing was going in and out on some days.
Was smashing the most urgent end-of-year client work, though because I was hell-bent on kicking off a 2.5-week holiday today, Dec 14, and hey here I am, first thing I’m, dropping you guys this update! Continue reading Update!
Remember Uncle Fanu promised to hit you up with some snares soon?
Well here they are!
These are all copyright-free.
I’ve tried to keep these organic-ish and mallable: the stuff I would (and will!) use myself.
Good for DNB, trap, hip hop, doing custom breaks, and so on.
You can use these as main snares, layers, pitch them up or down, give them some roasting, and so on.
Also do check out the kicks I posted earlier.
“Would there be any benefit to temporarily putting a limiter on the master in order to highlight any issues in the mix (I mean would it highlight anything too loud in the mix or annoying frequencies)?”
This is a good question, and I’m happy to answer this. Even if you’re not that interested in mastering, this can be useful, because it can kind of give you some feedback on your mix.
My detailed answer and thoughts on the matter can be found here on Patreon.
