I felt like doing some Jungle/Drum and Bass I haven’t done any for a while now so I thought I’d make some. I called it Like A Cow In The Night as I thought it was a good title and also some people are like cows in the night they sleep standing and with one eye open looking out for the wolves but less is said about that. The four-track EP is more rave music and stuff to have on in the background and stuff I like to listen to in a rave or at home or somewhere, music like this. I like to make Jungle/Drum and Bass now and then and is good to have a break from the other genres plus I like to make remixes of other genres and I’ve remixed one track from this EP Close Your Mouth which will be out in the next couple of weeks. It’s a House remix that I quite like actually and is something different but I’ll keep you posted when it is out. If you want to listen to it now it’s on my Soundcloud page where I post everything that I make including my unreleased music and the first place I post so come follow me on there and stay up to date with all the music I make. I used Breaks as always from Splice.com also the vocals which you should know by now I get all my loops including vocals from Splice.com and is my favourite place to go to get loops. I don’t use a lot of I only use drums, breaks and vocal loops which I do this and that with but I like to make the stuff myself it’s just some things sound better like the drums even though I would say I’m an alright drummer. It didn’t take that long to make I made it in the night and took around 8 hours to make two hours on each track. It’s how I get the job done and I always seem to know what I’m going to play or do once I hear the break loop that seems to add certain elements to the track but not all the time. As always I used the M1 for some of the synthy stuff but the bass and also some of the synthy stuff I used from a Reggae sample pack which I like to use a lot in my Jungle/Drum and Bass seems to have the right textures and sounds which I like to use in my Jungle/Drum and Bass which is the Sine wave the original and bad boy of the bass family. There are other waveforms like Triangle, and Square also popular choices for bass other than the Sine. For those who don’t know what a waveform is, it is a noise type generated by an oscillator which generates certain sounds like the Sine is good for bass but also for chime sounds and glassy sounds whereas the square and Triangle waveform is used for Chiptune and has a more harsher sound with the filter on and is screechy but can also be used for basess to. On a quick recap, the Sine wave is more deep and bassy whereas the Triangle and Square waveform is more high-pitched. The Triangle is the most high-pitched out of the three the square is also bassy but has high-pitched sounds which is why it’s also good for basses with some high-end in or high-pitched sounds but not the chipmunk high-pitched sounds it’s sort of like a Cello on it’s high strings mixed with 90s internet dial-up sort of. The first track Manic Dramatics is one for the club and something to dance to if you want. It’s one of my favourites on the EP and I like the franticness of it I think it is danceable and something to dare I say shock out to. I like the bass and the reggae synth which I found on a Reggae sample pack I was on about earlier. The next track I Can Love You is a radio-friendly track that is also danceable and one for the club after dark. I like the bass which is quite bassy and I also like the vocals which I said a million times now I got off Splice.com. It’s also something to have on in the background in your house or whatever and I think is kind of a hype song but is also chilled but still danceable. The next track Every Time is my overall favourite on the EP and I like the Darkness and shock-out appeal to it but again it’s also one for the bedroom or wherever you are listening music to. I used cinematic loops which I found on Splice.com and liked the sounds. I think it sounds a bit mysterious and deep and reminds me of being in a rave dancing 100 miles per hour. I love the breaks on this one they are frantic and choppy which is what I like in my breaks and favour more but I like to vary it with other kinds of breaks for the sound difference. The last track Close Your Mouth is another favourite on the EP. I like the feel of it and feels like you are walking down the street on a nice day. I also like the breaks which are also the breaks I favour when making Jungle/Drum and Bass and think they also go well with the stuff I put in. It’s a nice happy jolly track that is danceable or for chilling with but more for dancing as I like to make music to dance to.
