I just realized that we’re approaching the most important month of the year: #looptober!
I found this song that I wrote as a phone note while riding the subway in October 2018 and then totally forgot about:
~~~
I’m writing a song on the subway
I’m inking these words on my arm
It’s got all the schmaltz
Of an old country waltz but
Without all the talent and charm
I’m writing this piece for looptober
To be less than one minute long
It might not be slick but
At least it ends quick
And seamlessly restarts the song
~~~
#looptober in March!
#looptober neverending
(I keep posting loops with the looptober tag so that they loop for friendcamp listeners)
Its #looptober all year long. Thinking i'll still compile all these into one big track.
I'm thinking of compiling all this #looptober and #loop-vember music I've been doing (most of it just to put my infant to sleep) and releasing an album with the moniker babyHate
@irskep huh. I wonder what happened. it’s been working for me (I posted some compositions under the #looptober tag)
Heres a late edition to #looptober. #loop-vember? #loopyear?
Made it last night to put the baby to sleep. Has Guitar, bass then electric drums. Recorded all to my little Boss loop pedal.
Then played it through my audio interface to make this recording.
I could get one of those multi loop pedals.... but shit I think it'd be cooler to get a footswitch that fired off a bunch of keyboard macros that would basically turn my DAW into a multi track looper? Does that exist yet?
@citizenhelene hi, I think I remember you from #looptober on instagram in previous years! (before instagram made hashtags useless 😢). I'm fuzbal over there.
Whilst #looptober is over, noodling hasn't stopped. This morning's guitar practice was a bit of improv over the chords from Radiohead's The Number.
i know #looptober is over but today's fennelconf got me excited about 8fl so i sliced up an old lebanese song and here's a rough little jam session building on it
Joining @simon's #projects hashtag.
My second year of doing #looptober - posting a bit of music every day - is up on my Funkwhale server: https://music.mikelynch.org/library/albums/1/
Most of this was made in #SuperCollider and my little modular synth rack: a project for the summer break is to take my favourite eight or nine tracks and expand them into actual songs

#looptober neverending
Got sample chopping much less irritating, so time to chop some stamps
While I didn't post anything for #looptober I finally got nudged into sitting down and taking a close look at #tidalcycles. Found the time for ten sessions, sometimes multiple times a day. I feel like it clicked and I'm looking forward to learning more!
