Assasins Creed Beat

This production was inspired by various vigilante sources.  I wanted to keep a steady beat going;wasn't sure about using a snare on this one so I used a clap.  This is a more complex beat;compared to "Reanimated Communism" with various breaks, and beat pattern variations.

For this beat I wanted a "assassin in a church/open feel";while still holding a bluesy type of feeling. 





Reanimated Communism Beat

This was one of my first beats, and "creative wise" one of my favorites.  I wanted a beat that had a high middle band, and a higher low band drum kit: I felt it would be the setting most likely to have a urban legend radio show/old ghost town artifact type of feel. 

I ended up revolving the beat around the movie "The Last Man."  I kept the overall beat as simple in complexity as possible, but at the same time wanted listeners listening to the beat, to immediately know that it is a horror core beat.

Being one of my first beats I love it;it's only natural to love and appreciate something more than anyone else;when it was you who put the time and effort down to create it.
 

The Vocals:
The vocals were going to be completely different, but when my good friend Tanner was killed, I immediately changed the lyrics to things that we would speak about in conversations.  It took away from the intended feel of the song, but like I said we were really good friends and I wouldn't change the decision for the world.
