Here we go…

Finished rearranging the studio yesterday and so I took the occasion to record my first jam today, just in time to kick off Jamuary 2025

Happy New Year, everyone! :tada:

I hope you’re starting 2025 feeling inspired and ready to make some noise!

I couldn’t find any official mention of Jamuary 2025 yet, but this community has always been a great source of motivation for pushing creative boundaries, so I thought I can start, and I’d get the ball rolling.

Jamuary is all about setting aside time each day (or as often as you can) to jam, create, experiment, and share your musical sketches or finished pieces - whatever form that might take! Whether you’re noodling on a synth, exploring modular patches, jamming with friends, or even recording field sounds, everything is welcome here.

Feel free to post your daily or occasional recordings in this thread throughout the month. If you upload on Instagram, Facebook and others, remember to tag with #Jamuary2025 and #Jamuary so others can discover and follow along! As always, don’t feel pressured to record every day - this should be about enjoying the process!

Let’s celebrate creativity, share our progress, and enjoy the process together. I can’t wait to dive into this thread hearing what you all come up with, and discover new fantastic artists again!

Happy Jamming! :blush:

I haven’t recorded anything yet this January, but I had a longer improvised jam session just before NYE! Sharing it here, to start with something!

Here we go.

Day 1. Ringing in the New Year

edit: I accidentally posted here instead of on another forum I’ve been more present in, but I figure why not. I see a few familiar ā€œfacesā€ from last year and I had a lovely time of it then. A big part of Jamuary for me is taking the time to listen to everyone’s submissions, so I’ll do my best, given that I’m now taking in two threads worth. :slight_smile:
It’s good to be back!

Happy new year folks! There’s no way i’ll be able keep to a daily upload or recording, but this year I want to see if I can spend a few minutes every day doing something music related. And I always love listening to other people’s. 1st of Jan’s effort - something using Korg iM1, digitones and S4 and then applied a bit (too much probably) overdrive in bitwig.

I tried keeping it simple and in the spirit of a jam rather than composition. I recorded an upright bass but removed it in the end since it clashed too much. Although listening back, I kinda miss that low end.
