🔊 Salty's One-Off Tracks 🔊

Below you'll find a selection of tracks that I've written, recorded, and produced. Most of the songs aren't properly mixed or mastered, but I'm more of an idea guy anyways! 😉 I am self-taught in Ableton, but I didn't properly manage my plugins and files for it until the last few years, so a lot of my old songs are lost to time and only exist in my memory. My condolences, and let's please have a moment of silence for them.

DEAD MAN

This is a quickly-cooked beat which samples Jim Jarmusch's masterpiece, "Dead Man." This also happens to be one of my favorite movies of all time!

I chopped & played everything with my SP-404 MKII. The drums are all sourced from free BVKER sample packs. Background sound effects are from Runescape, Star Wars Obi-Wan, and Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory.

I Don't Think She's Kissed A Girl...

This is a really cool drum'n'bass loop that I made at the beginning of 2024. All of the drums are chopped from one short sample, but I wanted to make every bar unique in true junglist style.

I made the synth preset using Vital, which is a free VST! The goofy-sounding bitcrushed audio sample is from an iconic Lady Gaga interview clip where she disses Katy Perry.

Water Level

My wife tells me I should be happy with my art, but I disagree. However, she's literally always right, so I made this song in 2023 with the goal of finishing a song and being happy with it. I think it's some of my best work.

Samples used in this song are from these games: Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory, Arcanum: of Steamworks & Magick Obscura, and Runescape. For the very cool, super shimmery convolution reverb, I used the PS1 impulse response pack from Shirobon. The synths are custom presets I made in Vital. The toy drum loops were chopped from a free Casio keyboard sample pack.

I USED TO SMOKE K2, BUT THEN I WENT CRAZY

This is a really dumb EDM remix that I made in 2021. It uses vocal samples from Cali Cartier's (shoutout STL, midwest represent) song "Get It Right Back" from their masterpiece record Cali Cartier Best Dog. The mixing is pretty mid and I should probably redo it, but I love the idea on its own. This album should be required listening for anyone who loves ADHD-flavored hyper-rap.

Cyber Runescape

This song is super goofy. I made this back in 2020 after I first heard that song Jealous by Eyesore. I was chomping at the bit around this time to put this Runescape sound effects pack to use in a smaller project.

300kph

This was my first attempt at making electronic music many years ago and is a silly, loop-based drum'n'bass track. It's not anything groundbreaking, but it was a good exercise to learn Ableton back in the day. The best part is this crazy synth I made in Massive, which you hear just after the 1:50 mark.
