Below is a selection of music available to listen to on YouTube. While the vocals were mostly sourced online, all production was created by myself in FL Studio.
One of my first completed works using FL Studio, “Hang On” marks a transition in my production process as I experimented with different DAWs such as GarageBand and Ableton. I sourced an acapella online and textured my instrumental to complement the track’s airy and soothing vocal quality. This piece reflects my early exploration of mood and cohesion in arrangement, as well as my growing confidence in sound design within a new DAW environment.

I experimented with a variety of drum packs to achieve the right feeling and character as well as experimenting with different plugins more indepth such as reverb and EQ to shape the tone of the track. I top this off with a ambient cafe sound to bring the whole piece together in a relaxing vibe.

Unlike my previous tracks, this piece uses less percussion, placing greater emphasis on atmosphere and minimalism. I also experimented with AI-generated vocals for the first time, generating dry vocals and handling all the vocal processing myself—marking a shift from my previous projects, which used pre-processed wet vocal samples.
