I wanted to make a torrent :)) — because we don’t use them enough for simple file sharing !

Nice track! How did you make this?

I used FL Studio and because it does run super well on Linux, I used only some samples and the stock plugins.

It all started from arpeggiated sample I liked a lot that I slowed down to put it at my correct BPM (130), then I created the bass line using the slicer tool (ALT+U in the piano roll) with the 3 notes preset.

I added some Flanger & Gain & Delay to the bass to give some more resonance.

Then I made an hip-hop drum line using a kit I downloaded on reddit. Nothing too special here, I should try to experiment more with the drums.

Finally, I just wrote the melody and added a filter with some LFO.

After I got this big loop I did some arrangement and that was pretty much it :)). 1h40-2h to make.

EDIT: typos
