Nyctophobia (King of Beats Oracle Edition)

Nyctophobia is a trap oriented beat, that evokes a spooky feeling, mostly very aggressive throughout, with some little breaks to create contrast and a established structure; contains lots of variation, having used several loops from the pack in quite creative ways, such as chopping, extreme processing, pitch shifting, time stretching, reharmonization, mashing up loops to create harmony and counterpoint, resampling and resynthesis, etc. The harmony in the track is based off the concept of having minor chords constantly transposing to a diminished fifth/augmented fourth/tritone to create a haunted/dark vibe since the key F minor and B minor have nearly no tonal relatioship at all. In the middle there is a chill part with completely new chords that add brightness, emotion and richness to the composition, based off the pentatonic sample melody from the pack. The track has very heavy 808s and intense rhythmic variation and syncopation that keeps the beat bouncy and interesting. Hope you enjoy this one! Spent a lot of time making sure the production is impeccable. Samples used in this beat (mainly): Dark melody loop 08 - 137 BPM F Minor Dark melody loop 11 - 146 BPM D Minor Dark melody loop 18 - 177 BPM F Minor Happy melody loop 03 - 150 BPM F Major Lofi melody loop 04 - 84 BPM B Minor 808 22 - F 808 34 - B Produced, mixed and mastered in FL Studio 20 by Zelgeon, cover art by Zelgeon. Keep in mind we are a duo that has been producing mainly EDM since 2016, recently we decided to start getting into this business looking forward to acquire better gear. Right now we are using a 1GB RAM mini laptop and cheap headphones to produce and that has been a serious handicap for us, but limitations breed creativity.
