The Atmosphere Production Blog


A lot of tracks have been created for work in progress album “The Atmosphere” and a lot of them have been found to break the overall vibe of the piece, as I got distracted and just kind of ran with it. When creating music, in order to fight writers block, you need to suppress the inner critic and finish every song. An album should tell a cohesive story, so now that a bunch of the songs are finished, I can call upon the inner critic. When it comes to “The Atmosphere” I think it is very much so a sci fi type of a story.  Music can express what these clumsy words cannot, which in my daily life is sort of a heightened feeling of generalized anxiety, everything that happens to me particularly the negative things that happen to me, they get amplified and inserted into the creations. The two new tracks to the atmosphere are explained in brief below

In the case of my new track Speculative Reality (newgrounds.com) I have been able to get feelings of anxiety around scenery (I think some dude and his friends in a red car are stalking me, I’m pretty sure he’s not but I don’t know.) and turn them into a bit of a club music song. Using AI based plugin Brain Brain - ADSR Sounds I was able to create fairly complex synth sounds that mimic those of an older synthesizer and tweak the settings until I got a horn section and a bass drone out of the bitch.


In the case of my other new track Evasion Evasion (newgrounds.com) I was able to dig into the project bones of Cocaine Deal (newgrounds.com)and make a suspenseful funk track, largely relying of modifications of sounds on the Triton VST TRITON / TRITON Extreme for Mac/Win - MUSIC WORKSTATION | KORG (USA)

Please check out my progress below!
