Coming of Age

This one’s for the moment you realize you’re not the same anymore. Dark room, lasers cutting, acid line twisting your brain. Let’s build it 👇



0:00 | Tape hiss, distant playground sample, deep sub pulse fading in

(Whisper, filtered & reversed)

Remember... before you knew...

The world was small...

Now it breaks...

0:32 | Closed hats tick, 303 acid bubble starts low, kick filtering in

Vocal chop (distant, echoing):

Step— through— the— fire—

Higher— wire—

This is— my—

(Snare roll + riser, 303 filter opening)

Coming of— Coming of—

1:04 | Kick + sub slam, 303 acid rips lead, gritty & wet

BWAAA-DROP — BRRR-ACK!

(Instrumental acid groove)

: Weeow-wack / WOMP-WOMP / Screeeech

Stuttered hook:

COMING—OF—AGE—AGE—AGE

TRIPP—DROP—TRIPP—DROP

1:50 | Kick cuts, piano pluck + airy pad, vinyl stop effect on acid

I was a kid with wide eyes...

Now the night is my disguise...

Every scar is a lesson learned...

Every bridge I burned...

(Low 303 hum rising, heart monitor beep → kick returns)

2:22 | Kick half-time, claps gated, “Tripp” vocal goes full hypnotic

Chant (layered, delayed):

Tripp into the night...

Tripp into the light...

Tripp into the (pitch riser + snares)

(Shout sample: “THIS IS IT!”)

2:54 | Double drop: Acid + distorted Reese bass stack, wider stereo

K-K-K-BWAAAAAMP!

: BRWOMP-tick-BRWOOM / metal-scrape / WUB-DROP

: Age-Age-Age-AGAIN

Lead vocal (processed, powerful):

I’m not who I was... I’m

COMING OF AGE

Feel the bass... it’s

COMING OF AGE

3:40 | Strip to kick + acid, add one element every 4 bars for 32 bars

DROP—TRIPP—DROP—TRIPP

AGE—AGE—AGE—AGE

(303 goes full chaotic squelch, then glitches out)

4:30 | Kick fades, only reverb tail of acid + heartbeat

(Whisper) ...grown now...

(One final sub hit)



• Acid: Automate that 303 cutoff + resonance every 2 bars so it feels like it’s “tripping”

• Bass Drop: Second drop needs a sub layer at 40Hz + mid-bass distortion for club systems

• Tripp Repeat: Put a 1/8 dotted delay + heavy reverb throw on “Tripp” to smear it across the stereo field

• Techno Groove: Keep drums minimal but driving. No melodies in drops — let the acid + bass be the hook

• Transitions: Use impact + reverse crash before each drop so it punches
