#Always watchin you 8bit drummer how to#
This tutorial makes it super obvious that Aaron knows how to implement the functions of Live inside and out. Holstein is an Ableton Certified Trainer? I think i forgot to mention that. The title reminds me of the Boatcar scene from Waking Life, one of my favorite movies. This piece alternates between an inquisitive feeling with the opening riff to a slinky, dark, undulating vibe.
This is one from the Backpact project, which to me has a more lo-fi, laid back sound than VibeSquaD, tho it still does retain Aaron’s impeccable sense of groove and warm, fat production. Let’s all try to be a little bit more empathetic, shall we? It also probably helps knowing that i had a tiny part in the sound, since Aaron purportedly used Ultimatum from the PerforModule Empathy pack in the mastering chain. I’m listening to it right now as i’m typing this and yep, all the hairs on my arms are standing upright. Every single time i listen to this song i get goosebumps. Taperlock Sprocket is the opening track from the Empathy Waves EP by VibeSquaD. Here’s a few suggestions of vids to check out:Ī great introduction video that Aaron recently put out, describing history, situation, and outlook. Which is so much more heartwarming and appreciated, to me at least. So many content providers present an artificial, projected self to the world at large which can feel a bit disingenuous, but Aaron does not at all take this tactic, instead being blisteringly… themself.
Do you like super tasty beats? Luscious basslines? Funky-ass rhodes? Quirky stop-motion animations? Ableton tutorials? There’s so much, and it’s ALL SO GOOD. Why should you subscribe to the channel? Well, in this case… lots of reasons. “It was a C sharp!” Aaron told me later backstage. I remember chatting with them after their awesome set with Sporque (one of my favorite live acts to dance to ever which also had Ooah from the Glitch Mob on beats and Jamie Janover on percussion), wherein i mentioned noticing that a certain bass synth note they kept hitting happened to resonate with the stage, causing this extra delicious rattle. I met Aaron Holstein (aka VibeSquaD aka Backpact aka the bassist/keyboardist from Zilla) at the 2007 Sonic Bloom festival in Colorado, where my wife Lore and i were supplying coffee and tea backstage for the artists.
