I ranked every sampling technique I use. What started as a fun experiment ended up being a deeper look at just how transformative and awesome sampling really is youtu.be/kSyrQ39KD_Y

Thanks to everyone who tuned into the Bandcamp Live set this weekend! All of the songs in that set were reworked solo guitar and sampler versions of my new album Today’s Traces. It’s out now, featuring warped, atmospheric guitars and lush analog synths sunwarper.bandcamp.com/album/todays...

This week’s been all about revisiting old workflows. With all the new gear announcements lately, I decided to take a step back and reconnect with a few instruments that had been sitting unused in the studio. There’s something special about returning to the instruments that helped shape your sound.

Happy Bandcamp Friday! There are just a few Future Fade CDs and Through the Quiet Dark cassettes left before the merch store is sold out… for now Thanks so much for supporting my music and keeping this journey going 🌌 sunwarper.bandcamp.com/album/future...

As I put the finishing touches on my next album, I’ve been looking back at the records that got me here. Each album feels like a snapshot of a moment in time: who I was, where I was, and what I was experiencing. Read below to join me in some reflections from each album

A Sampler and a Groovebox Are All You Need to Make Beats | SP404 MK2 + SEQTRAK youtu.be/f1Chz4g3gwI

Sample chopping is one of the most powerful ways to flip sounds into something completely new. By slicing sounds into small fragments, the SP404 mk2 opens up insane possibilities for beatmaking. youtu.be/8hvIoDqF8QQ

Sunwarper @sunwarper.bsky.social · 22/07/2025

The tracker workflow is nothing like what I’m used to, but it’s absolutely fascinating and really fun to experiment with. Here’s a little late night jam.

Sunwarper @sunwarper.bsky.social · 10/07/2025

When chopping samples, matching BPM isn’t always the best method. Chopping, pitching, & embracing timing imperfections can bring out natural groove and swing you just can’t get from quantizing. I just dropped a blog post breaking down this approach: www.sunwarper.com/post/samplin...

Sunwarper @sunwarper.bsky.social · 28/06/2025

Late night ambient jamming 🌘 Finding time to just sit and play guitar has been rare lately, but I’ve decided to change that. Once a week, I’m hitting record and capturing 5–10 minutes of pure improvisation with guitars, keys, and whatever else is within reach. Here’s the first in this new series

The SEQTRAK can’t sample flip… but I did it anyway, with a little help from Koala Sampler. Here’s my workaround for the lack of sample chopping while still using its powerful sequencer: youtu.be/Da9yV9U8rVw

I've been working on a live set for my new album, built entirely from dawless jams I made on YouTube over the past year. While I love exploring new gear, I always come back to the SP404 MK2 for live performances. Here’s how it’s coming together: youtu.be/Tw8zggYkevA

One of my goals for 2025 is to rely less on algorithms and more on direct ways to share what I’m creating. Setting up a mailing list is my first step in making that happen and my first monthly newsletter drops tomorrow! Join below & get a free sample pack www.sunwarper.com/mailinglist

Hard to believe it’s been 5 years since Sunkissed released. This EP ended up being a gateway to my dawless workflows and YouTube videos. All that time in 2020 to experiment with gear and get lost in the sound has shaped my approach from then on sunwarper.bandcamp.com/album/sunkis...

Some dusty ambient vibes on the SP404 MK2 for this rainy day. I chopped up sounds I made on synths, then used the SP’s effects and live looping—turning the sampled loops on and off in real time—to create the track 🎧 “Wind Whispers”: sunwarper.bandcamp.com/album/throug...

Shipping out the first batch of Through the Quiet Dark cassette orders, thanks to everyone supporting this release! Lately, I’ve been feeling burned out by streaming & algorithms, so I wanted to create something tangible and real. It means the world to have your support for this :)

Sunwarper @sunwarper.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

To me, digital releases have lost their presence, reduced to text on screens and sounds adrift in a digital sea. These songs were made entirely on hardware, so I wanted the final format to reflect that, preserved on tape. sunwarper.bandcamp.com/album/throug...

Sunwarper @sunwarper.bsky.social · 12/02/2025

Over the last year, when it comes to music production, I’ve focused less on technicalities and more on capturing emotion in the moment. Here’s a look at the gear that helped shape my new album, Through the Quiet Dark. Preorder now: sunwarper.bandcamp.com/album/throug...

Through the Quiet Dark is about finding calm in the chaos of an ever fleeting moment. Each track started as a live jam, built with hardware & captured in real time. 🌙 Through the Quiet Dark drops Feb 18, preorder now on Bandcamp sunwarper.bandcamp.com/album/throug...

Making jazzy boom bap with just a guitar and SP404MK2 Sometimes creative limitations bring the most inspiration. I like doing these smaller gear combos for making the initial beat, then bringing it into the DAW to refine later Check out the full beatmaking session: youtube.com/live/3iqaLR-...
