Album DescriptionAvailable in:
This tape is the first of a series in which I want to experiment with sounds coming from mecha-related entertainment and fiction products. This time I sampled the OSTs of mecha-based videogames, trying to give my touch to some specific soundtracks and to make some sound collages, remixes and rearrangements as usual.
The titles of the songs, due to the tape name "Mecha Cuts", are inspired by cold weapons/white arms of the Japanese tradition and you can find some informations about each of them in the description of the single tracks.
Best enjoyed during a challenging task, a training, or a meditation session, possibly with headphones or from a stereo system.
I'm really grateful and thankful for the love you all show to my musical journey, it's being awesome!
Much Love,
MICROMECHA
P.s. In the occasion of this "Cuts" series, just please let me add a couple of words about my production style and method: after some thematically or musically coherent crate digging, I usually split the single instruments tracks of the songs with AI and then I proceed in selecting, chopping, looping and rearranging the tracks in a vaporwave/instrumental hip hop/trip hop/breakbeat style. I often mix drums and rhythmic parts from a song with the melodies from another one and very often I create basically sample-based compositions like in the electronic dance music/instrumental urban music tradition (in this case, "Wakizashi" is basically a classic sample-based jungle tune and not a plundering at all). I hope someone cand find these words interesting, I wanted to give some insights about my craft just for sharing, but also because I can understand that in heavily sample-based music styles like barber beats sometimes the idea of being listening to just "slowed down+reverb" versions of tracks made by other producers/beatmakers can be disappointing or even disheartening. Anyway, much respect and props to all the vaporwave/barber beats/internet music scene in general, and in the end just remember that "everything is a remix" <3
