Month: January 2026

For week four of WeeklyBeats I have gone back to upbeat dance music.

For this week’s WeeklyBeats submission I moved away from the relatively upbeat, dancey stuff of the first two weeks and went the opposite way. The track is entirely “off-grid” – I made it without thinking about tempo or time signatures and without any kind of snapping or quantising to a grid. All elements are either played in by hand with no kind of metronome or are field recordings.

For this week’s WeeklyBeats I’ve gone even faster than last week, an up-tempo dance track that I guess you’d call “breaks”, or at least that’s what house tempo breakbeat stuff was called after big beat and before dubstep (when people weren’t calling it electro, yikes). Anyway, scene nonsense aside…

I’ve decided to try participating in a challenge to make and upload a piece of music every week for a year. I talk about why on my WeeklyBeats profile page, and my main aim is to upload music I like that is different to my concept of what I write and release as Jet Jaguar.

Being a giant fucking nerd, I keep folders of WIP (work in progress) and finished music per calendar year.

My 2025 finished tracks folder has 27 things in it:
