Izzie G 🎹🎸🎙️🎛️🎚️♾️👨🦯🌕The second rlease for today is the stuff I did for #movuary . This is called Pocket Sessions, and for those who aren't in the loop, The challenge was to post a track made with Ableton Move, either something produced that very day, or something you been working on. I hope you enjoy. Spotify link: https://open.spotify.com/album/7Bq9BEORizSMhhTnOsqjzz?si=qY2krwgHQMKnIcB3oJAQ8A
@FreakyFwoof Yes I did. :) #Movuary really inspired me to keep going. And really brought out each piece of kit's intuitiveness in glaring contrast.
Andre Louis@izziegofficial So did you come up with #marschine? I like the idea following on directly from #Movuary.
Ricky Engerafter all the #movuary posts, I have questions about whether it makes sense for me to #MoveIntoMusic, or something. I have a birthday coming up and this seems intriguing. Here's my situation. I've played an instrument before but my skills are quite basic and I have almost no experience making multi-track things. Not looking to set the world on fire, just want a fun creative outlet. I'm playing with Ableton Note right now, and it's fun save for how difficult it is to play what I want using the on-screen pads. Questions: I have very little space, i.e. could I play this thing on my lap?
I don't have an external midi controller (see also lack of space) but given my current skill level, would the onboard pads likely be enough?
I'm fine with a learning curve, but am curious how much I could realistically do almost immediately.
Is something like this overkill for someone starting from my level? If so, what's a more sensible and accessible alternative?
What glaring thing have I not considered but should have?

I rolled both last year and this year's #Movuary into FreakyFwoof Tracks because why not?
#movuary was a lot of fun, who's up for #marschine ? Lol, unless that's already a hashtag I'm not aware of...
Borris#Movuary 28: Gone
Well, that's Movuary done for another year. I managed to end it before the end of the month by making most of four sets in a single day, but that's how it goes.
This one could have done so much more, but I decided to keep it very simple.

#movuary 28 The After Party. I'm gonna miss doing these. This was fun. I hope you guys enjoy this last one for the year.
#Movuary 27: 1987
This is a thing that started out as an 8 bar loop in June of 2025 for a recording I made about my own personal brand of synesthesia.
The sounds are not particularly 1987. They are all stock move sounds except for the drums, which came from a Magix Entertainment sample DVD released in 2001, but the style sort of is. I imagine this as something someone from 2067 might right having just read a book about 1987, never having actually experienced it themselves.

According to my Apple Watch, I have met my move goal. Obviously, my watch doesn't know about #Movuary, and how far behind on that I am.
The goal was to post one track made with Move every day in the month of February. I failed on that front. I posted two tracks today, and if I can write two more before the end of the day (I don't have a backlog), then I can finally be done with this thing and stop thinking about it.
Isn't it interesting how something that is supposed to be fun isn't after a while when you put pointless expectations on yourself that no one else cares about?
