After my much needed mid year hiatus, I've revisited some of the old works in progress I shared with you boys and girls earlier in the year and came across this one called Music Box.
My music software has mostly been collecting dust as I've had a lot of things packed up, ready to move in to a new place but sadly that line of enquiry fell through. Simply, I just couldn't be bothered to unpack everything but hoping that I can get a new place finalised by the end of the year and move in at the beginning of 2022.
Once I've settled in, I'll be fully back in the swing of new music production and 2022, I'll be releasing new tunes left, right and centre!
Anyway, back to today's share and work in progress. It was actually a new virtual instrument (VST) that I found after having to reinstall my whole music software called Music Box that inspired this one.
The picture is actually from the VST and as you can see, it's a music box! When you play a few notes on the keyboard, those figurines start moving, it's pretty cool. You get all the clicking and clanking sound effects as well, which I am probably going to feature in the full track once I get back to it.
I couldn't isolate those clicking sounds from the instrument though so had to do a bit of digging in another virtual instrument to get something that sounded similar and in the second half of this clip, you can hear the spaced out, mysterious sounding synth playing which is what formed the basis of this one.
It should be a fun track once I get around to finishing, looking forward to seeing where this one goes!
Hope you are too!

Great work as always sir.

Thanks a lot mate! Appreciate the pizza, it's never too early for it!
Nice work here yo!
Happy to connect more. Somewhat new on the Hive Chain, but was pretty active on Steemit about a few years ago.
Appreciate the DnB vibe, and was stoked to see you using Music Box! Definitely some gem sounds in there.
Hey man, thanks a lot! Ah yeah I was on Steemit too but moved over to Hive when the fork happened as that's where everyone seemed to move to :)
Yeah that music box plug-in with Kontakt is pretty click. I saw Komplete 13 released recently which probably has even more epic VSTs on, need the money for other things at the moment but will keeping my eyes out in 2022 for any upgrades!
Are you into DnB as well? I pretty much post my DnB tunes every day here to spread the word haha!
Super cool yo.. I’ve dabbled in drum n bass, but haven’t ever gone full in.
My styles have been like a mid tempo organic house type thing. I also make beats, instrumentals and such for various purposes.
I’ll be sharing more tunes and studio stuff here…
Following you now so I’ll look out for your tunes!
Ah that's cool man! Yeah I do love liquid dnb, the more melodic stuff though, some of the heavier sounds just don't do it for me!
Nice on the house music, just checked your latest trip-hop upload, liking the chilled vibes there!
Nice yo! appreciate the listen :-)
