Q&A

Hey everyone! Here's a surprise post for you guys. Just want to try something out, a Q&A! Drop some questions in the comments and I'll choose a few to respond in a really loose and chill VR video. I might post a few of the responses on Twitter if we get some good ones! Take care everyone, hope you enjoy this little experiment! Also, shoutout to my new Patrons! - m<3

MereMix 7 (Lossless)

Hey Rotti Patrons!This week I have a mix for you guys! I'll be playing this set on Sunday at 10:30PM on VRChat. Check my Twitter and Instagram for updates on the venue! I'll be preparing a cool video, and you can of course stop by and say hi!I tried throwing in some more well known Future Funk tracks in this one, though I'll admit that I'm still kind of a newbie when it comes to popular Future Funk. Being in the Future Funk commun...

MereMix 7

Hey everyone!Finally finished this mix, it took a while! I'll actually be "performing" this mix on Sunday on VRchat at 10:30PM EST! I'll update my Instagram and Twitter with venue information soon. Make sure to stop by to see the visuals I'm cooking up for the event, and just to say hi! For this mix, I chose some more popular Future Funk tracks. Because I'm performing in VR, I want to make sure I "represent" the ge...

80's (Part 2) [Lossless!]

Hey Rotti patrons!Here's part two of the two synthwave tracks I was commissioned to do! I honestly don't have too much more to say about this track, as I've detailed most of the context in part one, here - https://twitter.com/MereNoTilde/status/1444032182675283972?s=20So instead I'll let you guys in on what I've been up to recently! I'm currently working on the setlist for my next live show in December! I have about an hou...

80's (Part 2)

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!Here's part two of my previous post! - https://www.patreon.com/posts/56870091I was commissioned to make two synthwave-sounding tracks, and this is the second song I cooked up! I was going for a similar sound to part 1, but with some more upbeat energy. I tried to keep most of the same synthesizer sounds for this one, but I upped the tempo and changed the chords to have a more playful feel compared to the first track...

80's [Lossless]

Hey Rotti patrons!This week I have something a bit different from what I've been posting throughout September! Instead of a chilled out, sample based track, here's a darker synthwave banger instead!As mentioned in the MP3 post, this track was part of a commission I was hired to do. I was asked to make two synthwave style tracks, and this is one part of the result! I don't have much experience with this genre, so I tried to take the cl...

80's (Comission)

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!Today I have an interesting track to share with you guys. I was recently commissioned to do two synthwave style tracks. That's a style I don't have too much experience with, but I decided to give the commission a try anyway. This is the result, or one half of it anyway! I tried to use the experience I had with synthesizers from my last album (Now That I Have You) as a good starting point. As you can hear in Mono...

Lovely Happy (Lossless)

Hey Rotti patrons!Here's my crisp, new track for you guys. I always thought of the vinyl samples as having a crispy quality to 'em, anyway...I feel like with every WIP I've been putting together I've been getting a clearer idea of what my next project might sound like, though I still need a lot of work to get there. I want to do a kind of plunderphonics record inspired by Chance De La Soul and the Avalanches, though it's a bit...

Lovely Happy

Hey everyone!Happy Friday once again. Today I have another pretty chill track, as it's been what I've been feeling lately. This time I'm also including some chic french vocals too, because a lot of the stuff I've been checking out is french! Hopefully this puts you in a lovely, happy mood!I feel like I've kinda hit my limit with the Future Funk stuff, so I'll be taking a break from that sound for the foreseeable future (no...

First Time (Lossless)

Hey Rotti patrons!Here's my new track in lossless format. I think this way you'll really be able to hear the vinyl crackle on those string samples... hopefully...For this track I wanted to do something chill, as that's been my mood recently, for the most part. However, I didn't want the track to be a downtempo slogfest, so I added in the energetic drums for some excitement. I've been working a lot with break beats recently, po...

Mere Notilde - First time

Hey everyone, happy Friday!I've recently been making music without a real goal in mind artistically, rather just making whatever I feel like making. For all I know, these tracks could remain in the Patreon vault forever, just because I don't feel like it's really "marketable" to a Future Funk audience I guess? It's actually pretty fun doing music this way, and pretty rewarding too! I like being able to just air my feelings...

Want Me (Lossless)

Hey Rotti patrons!Here's my new, breezy French Touch track! For this one, I tried to go for a very early French Touch sound, a sound similar to early Cassius and Air. Here's an example of a record I've been spinning a lot lately that might give you a good idea of what I'm talking about:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsuyrPP8s24I started by looking for a string sample that would suit the sound I was going for. Once I found one, th...

Want Me

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!Woo! Today's a good one for me. I'm finally done with summer classes, moving, and preparing for my show! A huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders and I finally have time to really focus on making new music again. Feels good! As a celebration, enjoy this track, a chill, breezy take on the old school french touch sound. I really wanted to just relax and take it easy with a less energetic track than usual, so...

Midnight Magic (Lossless)

Hey Rotti Patrons!As another month passes by I want to take a moment to sincerely thank you guys for sticking with me! I had a whole script written to express just how much you guys mean for me, but I decided to save it for tomorrow so everyone could see it, and not just you guys! Expect a cheesy love letter soon, ha ha.For now, I'll share a few details about this track! This is the last song I'll be sharing from my new EP, and it's m...

Midnight Magic

Hey everyone!I can't believe it's Friday already... My Boston live show is only a few days away! I've been practicing nonstop for this one. I hope those of you who can make it will enjoy the performance!So this is the last track I'll be sharing from my new EP! For this one, I wanted to experiment with an unusual kick pattern just for fun. This whole EP was a collection of experiments really. I was trying to do things a little diff...

Terrific (Lossless)

Hey Rotti patrons!Here's the new track, finally! I had to hunt on my old hard drive to get this one, which required me to set up my new room and get my desktop running. I'm glad I can finally share it!For this one, I tried to experiment with not only some more swinging percussion, but with the groovy bassline as well. I tried to get a pretty smooth sound with the TB-303 emulator, kinda like a real bass. I've had my actual bass shelved...

Terrific

Hey everyone!I finally have time to share this track with you! I spent the last few days helping the previous tenant move their stuff out, cleaning the new place, and moving my stuff in. Now that I've finally been able to set up my desk and computer, I can finally share this track (and I can relax and take a breather, finally)!This track was originally going to be on my new EP, but I decided to keep it as a Patreon exclusive, as the percussio...

Weekly Song Update

Hey everyone! Just want to keep you guys updated on the new track... I'll be posting it later today! I'm currently moving into my new place, which is why I'm writing this so early! The track I want to post is on my desktop computer, which happens to be packed up at the moment... Once I get everything set up and ready to go, I'll make the new post for you guys. Apologies for the wait!Stay tuned - m

Draw the Line (Live Edit) [Lossless]

Hey Rotti patrons!I'm currently studying for my interview for Berklee tomorrow. I've been going through the questions they might ask and that kind of thing, and I'm really practicing this piece... I need to perfect my transitions a bit more. Launching each part is a little tricky...If you're curious about how I'm arranging this, attached is a picture of the project file for tomorrow. Each section (top to bottom) is a different...

Draw the Line (Live Arrangement)

Hi everyone! Happy Friday!My nerves are a little through the roof right now, I won't lie! My audition for the Berklee College of Music is tomorrow! I have to perform a piece for them through Zoom (usually it's an in person audition, but due to the pandemic it's a little different at the moment).For the last month or so I've been preparing my live show in September, and that actually helped me out a bit in this case, since this liv...

Update 8/17/21

Hi everyone!I've been a little more busy than usual, so I thought I'd fill you all in on what's been going on for those curious. I'll be dividing this update into two segments, the latter being more personal. Feel free to skip that part if you're not too interested in my personal life, but I do think being transparent is something you guys deserve for supporting me! New EPFirst, some good news: the masters for my new EP have ...

Poumtchak (Lossless)

Hi Rotti Patrons!I'm happy to say I just revealed the next Mere Notilde release in the MP3 post! If you're curious about that, check it out here!https://www.patreon.com/posts/54872899As for you guys, I'll give you some more info about the track itself! A lot of this new EP is me experimenting with new drum machine techniques, and different rhythms. If you remember back to my last record, Now That I Have You, the drums on that record t...

Poumtchak + Details on Upcoming release!

Hi everyone! Happy Friday!I'm happy to announce that the next Mere Notilde release is coming up soon! I'll give you guys some exclusive info, though I'll kindly request that all info about the release stays in this Patreon! I'm not sure exactly how much I can reveal but I'll try to share as much as I can!The title of this release will be Cool Songs EP (Alternatively, White One)! I'll be releasing with a certain known Futur...

Knockin' at Your Door (Lossless)

Hey Rotti Patrons!Enjoy this track from my new EP! I have a few tracks lined up with a similar sound to this one, as I was intending to go for a fun, carefree sound on this new project. As mentioned in the MP3 post, I'm focusing more on percussion for this new batch of songs, as my last record (Now That I Have You) was a little more based around the sample chops. I've been looking for a new direction for a while since that record, and I t...

Knockin' at Your Door

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!Now that the new compilation is out, I'll be sharing a few tracks I've created for fun over the last few months. For this one I went for a housier sound than usual, heavily inspired by The Phantom's Revenge! I tried to make my drums sound heavy, with a little more swing on the hats and rim shots as well. This heavily drum-based sound is the basis for my new songs so far, so expect some more quirky rhythms on...

Update 8/4/21

Hey everyone!It's been a while since I've given an update so let me fill you all in on what's been going on regarding my music!So now that I'm vaccinated, I've been making more of an effort to go out and see some live DJ sets and shows. I've been making a few connections and well, I got a gig! Two actually! Once I can promote it I'll make sure to let you guys know the date, time and place. For now I'll just say, if...

Release Party Mix (Lossless)

Hey Rotti Patrons!For this mix I tried to keep the track list more current, as sometimes I really indulge in the early 2000's late 90's French House scene (that's the stuff I tend to listen to mostly). I tried that approach at first, but I decided that I wanted something cleaner to celebrate the compilation launch, especially since Pop Up's set actually seemed to have that old school vibe covered already! I really recommend all th...

Release Party Mix!

Hey everyone!Hope you guys enjoyed that awesome stream yesterday! Apologies for getting this one a day late, but I was way too busy preparing for the Music for Streaming compilation that I just about passed out after the show was done! The compilation will release in just a few hours (aiming for noon EST as I write this) but I wanted to make sure I got you guys the compilation before I put my focus on that. Enjoy the mix! And stay tuned for the n...

Pop Up! - Signal (MFS) [Lossless]

Hey Rotti Patrons!I present to you: Pop Up's compilation track in lossless form! Here's some context from the MP3 post for this track:As mentioned before, I tried to push the Notilde roster by requiring that the tracks contain little to no samples. As an artist who primarily worked through plunderphonics, Pop Up! seemed a bit hesitant on creating a song through this manner. I was a bit concerned, but after he sent me the WIP I realized th...

Pop Up! - Signal (MFS)

Hey everyone! Happy Friday!I'm currently typing this from a coffee shop in Boston. The wifi at my new place isn't the best, though we're looking to remedy that through the old "throw an ethernet cable out the window until it reaches my room on the bottom floor" trick. That should do nicely...Anyway, here's the weekly track! As mentioned before, I tried to push the Notilde roster by requiring that the tracks contain little ...
