  1. I'm going to place a sample pack for distribution are there some interested?
  2. One of my favorite soundtracks (and the movie as well) PS. I use it as a reference track now among others.
  3. You're A Liar is a title of my old song that I made in collaboration with Angel Wade (she wrote the lyrics and recorded vocals)... some day I decided to make a remix of that song and sent request to co-worker if she has an accapella of song... but she even didn't reply, then I decided to use AI online service, sent them an old arrangement and got back accapella... then I did a new arrangement and that is what I got in result: https://soundcloud.com/aleksalt/youre-a-liar
  4. Intro. I posted a topic with that title on 2 different forums already... and found strange thing, nobody replied, and that topic had very few views... Once more, I state it's a strange, Why it's strange? Because people buy books on songwriting, but ain't interested to get a free tutorial! Then I posted reply there, kinda: seems like all the members here are the Grammy Award winners and top Billboard chart makers, so, they don't need any tips on songwriting...(moderator deleted it there) Ok, and now a topic itself: I’d love to share with you my own tips on songwriting(note: it’s about melody, tune, music), sure you didn’t hear of them before… so, come on: Well, when I started songwriting 10 years ago, I had a problem, that everybody here knows: WRITER’S BLOCK that disappeared with experience… but, then later I had another very unpleasant problem: CLICHES… So my 2 tips are about: how to kill those problems both! So, what I did: for a while I want to make a beat(maybe a song too) that sounds like Camila Cabello’s Havana: I played/recorded some piano chords (Gm_Cm_D), then added drums, bass, wah guitar, and then stumbled: what to do the next? Recollected the way I did it a week ago: opened sample libraries and chose a female acapella, then transposed it into Gm, and changed a tempo to 80bpm (everything as in my beat) Next: I cut the acapella on parts, some changed the order of those parts, moved them (right or left) to put them in time with the beat. Important: if I had previously this chord progression Gm_Cm_DX2 then I added a new progression to existed: Ebmajor7_F_Bb_Ebmajor7_F_Gm_F_Gm because the acapella ordered to follow it (chords could be different!) Conclusion: now I have a song template, that breaks my cliches with fresh ideas, I can edit it as I want, but the new ideas are cool, aren’t they? Interesting? Wait for the next tip soon PS. This is an audio snippet of what I did: https://soundcloud.com/aleksalt/210718-gm-cm-d-slow
