Kind of a scrapbook of bits and pieces I find inspiring with the odd bit of musing and shameless self promotion.

Shit! Got the date the wrong way round as I'm knackered! Thanks.

https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a3544927873_10.jpg http://neuroticwreck.bandcamp.com/album/leave-tonight-mixtape-side-1 Been massively inspired by hip hop mixtapes and The Weeknd's stuff of late so decided to put that into action. Not "pure witch" whatever that is, it's less witch house than wi...

Wait for something to inspire you, then start based on that.
Twiddle with the synths or mess with the presets parameters til you find an inspiring sound, thats a good start point.

It sounds like a musical pun - The Shadows of Witch House! This is by no means a bad thing.

http://neuroticwreck.bandcamp.com/album/cling-placid Not just bumping an old thread in the hope of more people listening to it but this has been altered to run better as an album, taking off a few tracks that just amounted to filler. New material in the vein of tracks like Tired of Me ( http://sound...

I agree, it's not all that bad a name as movement/genre names goes. Especially in electronic music - I mean, we've got future garage (piss poor name) and IDM (intelligent dance music - elitist, misguided) among others. People who say "Well there's no house elements in witch house" are miss...

More love for Even Dwarves Started Small for me. A really hypnotic film. Herzog certainly likes his shots of cars driving in circles, doesn't he?

Here's my mix of that track I asked you to have a go at adding to/twisting/subtracting from. The last track we did worked out pretty well

Well I used it, played about with it, added vocals and turned it into a Weeknd type thing. Will send it to you if you want.

That's a good idea, going to try the routing to a tape deck thing soon!

How about a Siouxsie and The Banshees tribute called A Kiss In The Witch House? Puns are good.

Well I'm up for cooking something up for this, and I reckon "early spring" could be a good way to go, has some consistency with the theme of the last release. There's definitely merit in the X Files idea though, as long as it didn't just degenerate into zombie rave remixes of the theme mus...

It'd be a nice idea if they were making some money off the back of it too, so maybe they could get involved, but otherwise if you want to make "witch house clothing" its probably best to follow your own advice and do something truly one of a kind. I'm sure the Baron can come up with someth...

What interests me most is where we all go from this point. You can already see the threads; some staying in the same 808 clap beats with sawtooth synths, while others pushing the boundary into more experimentation, and others going more dancey/house/techno. Some say witch house is dead, but I say m...
