Sound-ation Artists United

I wanted to make a group open to everyone on Soundation to share our music, help each other, and to support all of the artists on here. If you are trying to sell your work, are promoting a label, or want to help support fellow artists, please message me with information and/ or share this page with fellow artists, friends, and family! I will be adding info on fellow artists here periodically as it becomes available. Best wishes my friends! Keep creating AND HAVE FUN!!!! PLEASE POST OPPORTUNITIES HERE for fellow artists also or message me with any info that can help artists here with more opportunities. *Note this group is not officially endorsed by Soundation or any related parent companies. This is not a business or label, but simply a group to support fellow artists on Soundation and share our music. I do not officially endorse any artists here. This is simply a group meant to help the hardworking artists here who deserve recognition and support. Note to new artists of Soundation: If you're new to SOUNDATION, I recommend buying the premium account or sound set packs to start off with. It will just make your life easier and music more original to have the whole library available plus you can download or record your own productions from elsewhere. If not, really try to use the free samples originally or try experimenting with midi's on the blue channels. Ask the artists/ admins here or check the tabs below the entire group page for help. *AND PLEASE SHOW SUPPORT FOR ALL OF THE ARTISTS ON SITE!* For Cyberbit:https://soundation.com/user/cyberbit https://cyberbit.bandcamp.com/ For Miles Findlay:https://soundation.com/user/milesfindlay For IAwake:https://merkabamusic1.bandcamp.com/album/zenith For Aronson: https://soundcloud.com/houseoffuture Check out his new EP: https://soundcloud.com/zach2-1/sets/fresh-start-ep-1 Dementia: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dementia/387446748060032 D-CYPHR: https://www.rappad.co/users/D-CYPHR https://www.facebook.com/CypherRaps/ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC41imd3m234g3p0UY9QKETA For Ryan:https://soundation.com/user/itsryanyeah Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCltNKq7sasi6NHAy8tEoTAQ For Michotic: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/0DCncTqKAZtuYYzX4koNVz Facebook Page: https://m.facebook.com/Michoticmusic/ ****************************************************************************************FOR CYPRASONIC (AKA) DOC REGALS: NEW MUSIC, ART, BOOKS, ACCESSORIES, AND FACEBOOK********************************************************************** Music: https://cyprasonic.bandcamp.com *APPAREL AND ACCESSORIES:* robertoregan I do take requests for custom products as well.

Music Theory

HERE IS A .SNG FILE WITH A SHORT CHILLOUT IDEA IN IT https://www.mediafire.com/download/dbvjymvbqt3xr7u/Chilled_song_for_you_guys_to_get_ideas_from.sng HERE IS A .SNG FOR A DNB DRUM BEAT https://www.mediafire.com/download/6d61bs9aclzkbn9/DnB_beat.sng It has come to my attention that many people on soundation don't have a basic understanding of music theory and subsequently some of them find it hard to make there own loops, stay in a key and make nice sounding melodies. I intend to change that by helping those people get to grips with the basics, I will also be giving a few tips targeted at those who already have a good understanding and have to help really improve there musical depth, such as some really neat key changes (Key changes are barely used on soundation), chromaticism, blues notes, extended chords, countermelodies and many more, NEW!!!!: KRackEd EkHo had the idea of having a communal account so people can see the ideas of music theory for themselves as well as getting useful ideas. the user name is 'DusksMusicTheoryProgram@gmail.com' and the password is 'duskmusicuk' feel free to add new projects and test your ideas for others to see, I'll be putting a few things up for others to use and get ideas from. the only things you cannot do is delete projects, change the password or do anything on the community with this account, this account is purely for use in the studio. if anyone does otherwise the account will be shut down, so please obey by the rules. The Basics: there are 12 notes on the key board A, A-sharp/B-flat, B, C, C-sharp/D-flat, D, D-sharp/E-flat, E, F, F-sharp/G-flat, G, G-sharp/A-flat, check the link to see how these relate to the piano roll https://www.ehowtoplaypiano.com/piano-lessons/piano-notes-for-songs/ ...but you only use 7 at a time because there are only seven in each key, e.g. C,D,E,F,G,A,B,(C) an octave is C1 to C2 as C2 is the 8th note from C1 (as there are seven in the scale) The gap between to note directly adjacent to each other (e.g. B and C or D and D-sharp) is called a semitone, 2 semitones are called a tone (e.g. the gap between C and D is a tone, check the piano roll or link to see for yourself) Major Keys: the pattern of these tones and semitones for a major scale is T,T,S,T,T,T,S (e.g. C,D,E,F,G,A,B,(C) for C major or F,G,A,B-flat,C,D,E, for F major you simply pick a major key and to work out the scale for that key you use the pattern T,T,S,T,T,T,S to find all the notes. Minor Keys: For a natural minor Key the pattern is T,S,T,T,S,T,T but for a harmonic minor the pattern is T,S,T,T,S,T+S,S (mess around and see which you prefer), so an A (natural) minor scale would be A,B,C,D,E,F,G,(A) an A (harmonic) minor would be A,B,C,D,E,F,G-sharp,(A). check this site for more https://www.loopblog.net/tutorials/music-theory-tutorials/understanding-basic-scales-more-loop-fun/ or https://www.music-tutors-uk.com/Theory/scales.html Basic chords: the most common chord is a triad, it has 3 notes and the have intervals of thirds (in others words they have one note in between them (from the scale of the key), e.g. in C major the notes of the scale are C,D,E,F,G,A,B so a third would be C to E or D to F) in this clip, the chord C major is played first, the first note is C, the next note is E as it is a third away (one note in between), then a G is the next as it is a third away from E this gives you C,E,G and this is how you make triads. check this clip and my comments at the beginning for a proper lesson on chords https://soundation.com/user/duskmusicuk/track/the-basics-of-chords also check these clips for more on scales and chord sequences (more to come) https://soundation.com/user/duskmusicuk/track/simple-chord-sequence-in-c-major-sequence-i-v-vi-iv-1-5-6-4 https://soundation.com/user/duskmusicuk/track/harmonic-minor-scales-a-minor-to-d-minor-pattern-t-s-t-t-t-s-s https://soundation.com/user/duskmusicuk/track/major-scales-c-major-to-f-major-pattern-t-t-s-t-t-t-s

Edit: Soundation are making it harder and harder for new users, from restricting the number of instrument tracks in each project to removing automation. This is really unfortunate. All I can suggest for those who miss these features but do not want to pay a premium for them is that you give audiotool a try.
