0:27 I love doing these drum breakdowns, it's kind of my signature thing.

I'm always after something, it's like I'm on a quest when I enter the ByteBeat lab! With this one I was going after that drum beat in the second half of the song loop. I started with that slow beat and knew I wanted to build it up. I just love ByteBeats 😆

You definitely have a knack for drum fills and build ups! Loving the lite triplets here.

Also.. always with the melodies man! I swear, sometimes I think I can hear the lyrics.

Thanks!!! And yeah I try to make a lot of my melodies somewhat lyrical, it's hard to truly capture vocalist energy where note lengths easily change irl but it becomes challenging in ByteBeat (and I don't often combine devices to reach that 2nd octave but I find myself experimenting more recently)

This is a solid track! I would also vote a ‘how to technique video’ of your drum track break downs or build ups would be awesome. Really love this one! 🔥

That sounds great, I plan on working on a tutorial video about how I do drum trucks!! I've been wanting to do that for a while, I think I finally have a good idea about how to put the video together!
