After hearing the sad news that Noisia will be splitting up at the end of 2020, I decided to dedicate the next ‘Track from Scratch Series’ to the classic Noisia Style. They have been my production idols for the last decade, but I’ve actually never managed to create a song in their style because… well it’s Noisia after all!!!
Their sound design is one of a kind, they’re gods at what they do! So, inspired by their sound and the sad news of their departure from the Noisia ‘brand’ I set to work researching their sound/style, opened up Ableton Live and set to work on the new Track from Scratch Series!…
So check out the series Playlist below as we tackle the Composition Techniques, Sound Design,FX Processing and Mixing and Mastering of a Noisia Inspired track from Start to Finish!
