Today, we’re taking slowing things down to the next level.
In the video above, we explore how we might go about making a track at a gentle (to say the least) 20 BPM. While the idea of a 20 BPM track might sound silly, setting our DAW to such a drastically slow tempo can help us generate new ideas and be intentional with how we approach our rhythms, harmonies, and melodies.
Check out our creative process and the resulting track – it just might inspire you to slow things down too. If you’d like to use sounds from our project as a starting point, we’ve made the stems and MIDI files available for download here.
