It's the idea, not the gear! Ambient Drone Music with anything?

Подробнее о видео

Help me to reach 5K Subscribers! If you're passionate about unique musical journeys into ambient soundscapes, you're in the right place.


In this video, I explore the creative potential of making ambient drone music using an unexpected piece of gear: the Akai MPC 500, an old sampler groovebox from the 2000's, originally designed for Hip Hop beat making.
Watch as I build lush, atmospheric soundscapes, proving that with a bit of creativity and vision, you can make amazing music on almost any equipment you have available. Whether you're working with high-end gear or secondhand finds, the secret is in how you use it.
Let this inspire you to dive into your own unique setup and unlock new sounds and possibilities!
