I made this cool loop and dong know how to expand it :((. I like my drum work but it's not very original too lol

Some of the loops just make feel good like this one because the sample I use is so good out of the box!

(apologize for the shitty drums, it was before I started getting more comfortable with processing)

This is an example of an arrangement attempt lol, I really like synth because it's easy to arrange the sound and layer them... It doens't have to sound "real"!

Another example of something that I had fun making and chopping until I had to get to the arranging part and was totally at loss as to how I can turn it into a song...

It's so hard to sample and then write something on top of them so you can expend your chopping loop!

One recent example of that was a recent sample I found which was slightly off-key and I couldn't get any instrument working on the loop even after pitching them slightly...

I needed a trumpet loop on it, and I was able to sing it but I didn't have any instruments that sounded good and raw enough!

Most of the time, it's annoying because I have an idea I vibe a lot with and I can't figure out how to turn it into a full instrumental!

I think I rougly understand how you can make a loop; but turning that into a song is still a mistery :)
