This tune is the culmination of a playtime session with the free Monster Drums VST plugin. After exploring the free kits available (18 at the time of publishing), we settled on Agung’s Futura Kit, which inspired a funky bass line. The rest of the tune was built up around that.
A perky little ditty built primarily of selections from the Kontakt Komplete VST, with just a few assists sandwiched in.
Here’s a sprightly tune built around a melodic bass line featuring the u-he TyrellN6 VST plugin preset “Oddy Wow”. With a few other virtual instruments and drum loop sandwiched in, as always.
Here’s a happy little tune put together whilst playing with the iOS Moog app Model D, based on the infamous Minimoog synthesizer from the 70s. PopUpliftingHappyDance Pop
Here’s a holiday weekend creation using a few different arpeggiators together to build the accompaniment to a melody you can whistle along to.
Here’s a happy little pop tune that grew from a persistent melody I had running through my head one day. When I transcribed that melody, it found its muse in a whistle, and everything else just fell into place from there.
Inspired by a somewhat eerie bell loop from Looperman artist Ov3rdos3, this upbeat tune morphs into a more cheerful energy before giving way to the chilliness again.
Another in the Soundfonts Series, this one paying homage to that video game classic, Donkey Kong Country.
Continuing on with the Exploring Soundfonts series, here is a tribute to the Nintendo 64 game console, featuring a the Glove 64 soundfont by fluidvolt.
Built entirely from a Soundfont by Fluidvolt called “Yoshi’s Island Soundfont”, a collection of mapped samples taken directly from the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. The tune has a “sea shanty” flair to it, with a definite vintage video game feel.
