Feb 2022 dark post-punk darkwave
This was made alongside the track I posted last night featuring pianobook samples. I wanted to have something lead into it and sound more degraded as the track progressed into the next one.
Used a loop of cassette drums by Dan Keen https://www.pianobook.co.uk/packs/cassette-drums/
The main piano loop wasn't as gross as I wanted it and the drums clash with the rest of my dry drum machine demos. Not really happy with the feel but it's a good start

If this is meant as an introduction piece, then some of what it does is very much going to work I think. The repetition of the musical figures, in the 6/8 time, sets up an incredibly strong sense of expectation, is how I'm experiencing this.

There is so much inspiring stuff on the Pianobook site, so it's nice to hear it getting some love from someone else. The drums certainly drive this one along nicely.
How do you want to dirty things up? If a distortion plugin is soo much and you don't want to go down the bitcrush route, progressively adding more and more saturation might be the answer...
