More m8 + s1 jamming for this week’s @musicweeklies.bsky.social challenge. Trying to capture the feeling of #dusk kinda dark, with a bit of pleasant reflection on the day (or something…) #m8tracker #rolands1 #muwee

the dulcet tones and glow of the amber dusk gently lull you into the night as the sky dims around you...

Did a little jam for the @musicweeklies.bsky.social #youchoose challenge. I chose a terrible camera that kept stuttering 🤪 I also chose to play around with the Roland S1 synth plugged into a M8 tracker #synth #tracker #m8tracker #rolands1 #muwee #musicjam

"Soap Shoes" - lastkeymusic
(Visuals from: Sonic Adventure 2 & SOAP)

For the @musicweeklies.bsky.social weekly #kitsch prompt, I was inspired by @facemeltingsolos.bsky.social to tap into the extreme sports craze in the 90s, creating something you'd likely hear in a SOAP Shoes commercial!

The @musicweeklies.bsky.social this week was #stretch So I tried to learn a new mobile music app - koala. I sampled 2 fave shmup tracks (from Eschatos & Radirgy) & had a blast with all the sample chopping, beat making & fx. #koala #sampler #beatflip #shmup #stg

As you may have noticed, we're switching theme drops to Mondays instead of Fridays from now on.

That means you still have this weekend to create a stretchy piece for our current #Stretch challenge!

Come join us for a challenge or two, all levels and styles are welcome! #composer #songwriter

We need a #Stretch after all that spice. 🧘‍♂️

Stretch your skills and try something with maybe a different genre than you're used to or use new instrument. 🆕

Upload your piece, tag us and use #Stretch before next week's theme drops. 🎶
