Write a song in 24 hours – Ableton Walkthrough
If you didn’t read my last post, I challenged myself to create a song from scratch & finish it within 24 hours. You can read my last post for all the guidelines but generally speaking, I built the song with only samples from other songs and audio content. I didn’t use any built in Ableton instruments, just the effects. Everything was done in the arrangement window.
As far as songwriting experiments goes, this really took me out of my regular process & got me thinking differently. The results were really different as well. I encourage you to try something similar & see how it works for you.
As promised, here is the video walkthrough of the 1st song I created during my 24 hour experiment.
Happy music making,
Jason
