In this special episode, we dive into the dark and mysterious world of Haunted Experimental Trap. Starting with an ominous, experimental hip-hop drum loop, we build a chilling soundscape with Mellotron strings run through a gritty guitar amp for an eerie, vintage feel. Next, we chop up some acoustic guitar to create haunting, tape-like textures that add a layer of depth and nostalgia. And it's the first episode at the new studio! THE BACKROOM

The lyrics bring a melodic, modern hip-hop and R&B vibe, delivering introspective and emotional themes that match the track's ghostly undertone. Watch as we push boundaries, blending genres and experimenting with sound design to craft something truly unique.

"Lo-Fi Soft Grunge" is a textured fusion of dreamy lo-fi soundscapes and raw soft grunge aesthetics. The track begins with a distorted soft rock guitar progression, transitions into indie-inspired chords with experimental pitch shifts, and layers chill raps with an emotional, hard-hitting chorus. A thick, distorted synth bass and melodic bass guitar licks add depth, while the rock-influenced drums—crafted in a hip-hop style—drive the rhythm.

Perfect for moments of introspection or when you're feeling under the weather, this song captures a unique blend of vulnerability and edge, delivering a sound that’s both nostalgic and innovative.

In this episode of Let’s Make a Song, I dive into the world of Modern Indie Folk Pop. It all begins with a foundation of acoustic guitar chords, setting a warm and familiar tone. From there, I build momentum by crafting a set of modern indie drums, blending experimental textures with a trendy groove.

To add depth and a touch of elegance, I layer in a simple yet captivating piano melody with basic chords. Then, it’s time to bring the groove alive with a bassline that ties everything together, giving the track its rhythmic heart.

Finally, I top it off with some clever, introspective lyrics that tie the whole song together, adding personality and meaning to the mix. It’s a journey through layers of sound, resulting in a genre-bending track that’s both fresh and nostalgic.

Tune in to see how it all comes together—you might just find inspiration for your own creative process.
