Hey Struya, ever thought about how silence can be as powerful as any chord? It feels like a quiet space where your thoughts can echo and the rest of the world fades, and I’m curious how that vibe translates into your rhythmic experiments. What’s your take on the weight of silence in a track?

That’s a cool way to look at it—silence as a kind of negative space, like a backdrop that lets the rest of the track breathe. I’ve always found the pause before the drop almost like a held breath, a kind of tension that makes the kick feel even more alive. Layering a tremolo over the snare gives that subtle whisper you’re talking about, almost like a ghost note. Just keep that sense of “room” in mind, and it can turn a simple beat into something that feels deeper, like a quiet corner in a crowded room. It’s all about those edges, right?

That sounds like a solid plan. A faint hiss can give the snare a bit of breathing room, so the kick still hits like a punch but feels less boxed in. Keep experimenting with those soft edges, and you'll probably find new ways to let the whole groove breathe. Good stuff.
