8-Bar Loop

Go From 8-Bar Loop to Arranged Track
Every Single Time Without Overthinking

LIVE ONLINE WORKSHOP • 22–23 NOV 2025

It's late at night, you've got your headphones on and you're working on an exciting new loop you started a few hours ago.

You hit play for the 50th time and it feels electric. You can't help but listen again and again. Maybe you even get up and dance like a madman around your studio. Or sit there with your eyes shut in quiet awe because you just know that this one is special.

But after a while a familiar doubt creeps in and whispers:

You push the feeling down and listen one more time – hoping it'll soothe the unrest. But something has begun to shift... it no longer feels as magnetic. It's as if the life is being sucked out of the idea in front of you.

You tell yourself you'll finish it later. You just need to take a break, regain perspective. You save the project file, naming it something hopeful, and add it to that folder alongside 1000 other loops that were also "going to become songs someday."


Person at a party asking 'Is your music anywhere online?' with an uncomfortable response of 'Well, no... Not really'

Perhaps someone asked you at a party, "Is your music anywhere online?" and you felt a twist of shame when you had to say, "Well no... Not really."

Not the good stuff, anyway. Not the stuff you're actually proud of.

The really good stuff is buried in the creative graveyard that is your "Works In Progress" folder. Your best ideas exist as nothing but unfinished loops on your hard drive.

You know you should arrange these loops. But every time you try, you freeze. You stare at the blank timeline stretching out ahead of those 8 bars because you have absolutely no idea where to start.

So once again, you just start a new project and tell yourself you will get around to it, just not today.

But you don't and you won't.

The problem isn't your mood or your gear or your technical skills. The problem is you don't have a system.

And without a system, you're paralyzed.


But what if you never had to get stuck?

What if you had a system that let you arrange any loop instantly, without paralysis or overthinking?

What if creating full arrangements straight away becomes as natural as making 8-bar loops?

That's exactly what the Escape the Loop arrangement system gives you.

WHO THIS IS FOR

THIS IS FOR YOU

  • You're an intermediate to advanced Ableton user with a folder full of unfinished loops
  • You value systematic approaches to creativity over vague tips and tricks
  • You prefer to learn by actually doing instead of passively watching YouTube tutorials

THIS IS NOT FOR YOU

  • You're still a beginner – this workshop assumes you're already proficient at production
  • You don't use Ableton – the core of this system is Ableton-specific and won't translate to other DAWs
  • You have nothing worth finishing – this is about arranging great ideas, not coming up with them

HOW IT WORKS

STEP 1

JOURNEYS

Set up intelligent controls for each sound that can smoothly evolve each element from one musical state to another.

This gives you simple but powerful control over every sound in your track without having to manually tweak hundreds of individual parameters.

STEP 2

VARIATIONS

Create multiple versions of each element in your loop – different intensities, moods and energies.

Doing this ahead of time gives you a set of predefined options to choose from when arranging, so your track will actually evolve instead of feeling static and repetitive.

STEP 3

SKETCHES

Combine your variations and journeys into a full-length arrangement that tells a story and takes the listener on an emotional journey.

With the prep work complete, you'll make bold creative choices confidently instead of second-guessing every decision.

STEP 4

DETAILS

Add the micro moments that transform your arrangement into a memorable track – the "salt and pepper" that creates tension, surprise and delight.

This is where your track truly comes alive and is arguably the most fun part of the whole music production process.

WHAT YOU GET

1

A COMPLETE ARRANGEMENT

You'll transform your 8-bar loop into a complete arrangement that's ready to mix and you'll be proud to release.

Your loop will have become a track that builds tension, evolves dynamically, and holds attention from start to finish.

2

A REPEATABLE FRAMEWORK

You'll forever have a repeatable framework you can use to arrange literally any track you create in the future.

On Monday, you'll sit down to work on your next track and know exactly what to do and how to do it. No more guessing.

3

A CRAZY NEW PERSPECTIVE

You'll learn techniques that'll blow you away and fundamentally change how you think about music production.

You'll leave feeling deeply inspired. Many of the techniqes I teach are things you will not have seen anywhere else.

Hi, I'm TÂCHES

I've released 131 tracks, earned 73M+ streams, and collaborated with artists like RÜFÜS DU SOL, ZHU, and Eli & Fur. I've played countless clubs and festivals across the globe and my music has been featured by outlets like VOGUE, Mixmag, and Billboard.

Every opportunity I've ever gotten – every collaboration, every festival booking, every meaningful moment in my career – came from finished tracks. Not one came from a loop that stayed dormant in my DAW.

But there was a period I spent two whole years unable to finish any of the loops I started. I'd produce all day, every day, and have absolutely nothing to show for it but an 8-bar idea that I'd listened to 1,000 times.

I've been a full-time producer for 13 years now. In that time, I figured out exactly what separated my finished tracks from my abandoned loops. I realized the times I could finish weren't random – there were specific things I was doing differently, in a specific order. So I systematized those findings into a repeatable framework that I still use to this day. It's so effective that I'm now able to sit down and finish a track in a single session.

If you're stuck in the loop, I know exactly how to get you out.

PREVIEW THE SYSTEM

Watch this 56-minute recording where I demonstrate the complete 4-step framework by building a track from an 8-bar loop to finished arrangement in real-time.

This is a compressed demonstration—not the full workshop. In the actual workshop, we spend 9 hours diving deep into each step, troubleshooting YOUR specific track, and exploring techniques I can't cover in a quick demo.

THE REAL COST

How much have you already invested in music production?

Investment Amount
Your DAW $200-500
Plugins $500-3,000+
Hardware/gear $1,000-10,000+
YouTube courses and tutorials Countless hours
Other production courses $200-1,500
Total investment Easily $5,000-15,000+

Has any of that helped you actually finish music?

None of it has solved your actual problem. You still don't have a system for consistently taking your ideas from loop to finished arrangement.

So instead of buying more plugins you'll barely use this Black Friday, treat yourself to the freedom of finally finishing those loops – and a repeatable framework you can use on every track moving forward.

WHY NOW THOUGH?

Person pushing a boulder up an exponentially steepening curve, thinking 'Just one more loop'

The longer you go without finishing a track, the harder it becomes to start.

It's not linear. It's exponential.

If you finished a song last week, starting another feels totally doable. After a month, it's harder. But after a year? Two years?

At that point, it doesn't just feel difficult - it feels impossible.

You start to question whether you're even capable. The psychological weight gets heavier every day. The doubt compounds.

If what you're doing now hasn't worked yet, it's not going to suddenly work next week. Something needs to change. Now.

So the question isn't "Should I sign up?" The question is "How much longer are you willing to stay stuck?"

WHAT YOU'RE ACTUALLY CHOOSING

Not whether to buy a workshop. That's not the real decision.

You're choosing between two versions of yourself six months from now:

Version A: Nothing Changed

  • You're still making loops. The folder has 500 more unfinished ideas. Your best work remains unheard.
  • People stopped asking about your music. The shame has turned into acceptance that you're a tinkerer – not a finisher.
  • You've spent another $1,000+ on plugins and gear you barely use, and you still can't finish anything.

Version B: Everything Changed

  • You've finished and released 8 tracks. When someone asks if your music is online, you just send the link.
  • Your friends take your music seriously. Collaborators and bookers reach out. The opportunities you always wanted are appearing—because you finish things.
  • When you sit down to make music, you don't get stuck. You create a loop, arrange it, done. No paralysis. Just flow.

FAQ

All sessions are recorded and you'll get lifetime access to download or stream them. You can follow along at your own pace if you can't make it live.

That said: You'll get significantly more value from attending live. The recordings are a backup, not the main experience. If you can make it live, make it live. This is about breaking a psychological pattern, and doing that alongside other producers in real-time is powerful.

If you genuinely can't make it live, the recordings will still teach you the system. But plan to attend if you possibly can.

Yes. This is an Ableton-specific workshop. While the concepts (variations, journeys, assembly) apply philosophically to other DAWs, some of the most important techniques I'll be demonstrating only work in Ableton. If you use something very different, this workshop won't be the best use of your money.

No. Everything I'll teach can be done with Ableton's stock plugins. You don't need a single third-party plugin.

In fact, having too many plugins might be part of your problem. More options = more paralysis. This system works with Ableton stock because simplicity is the point.

While this framework works for any electronic genre, it works best for house/techno adjacent genres. I will be demonstrating making a house track as that's what I personally like to make.

Intermediate to advanced. You should know your way around Ableton, understand production terminology (EQ, compression, automation), and be able to create 8-16 bar loops. This is not a beginner workshop – I won't be teaching you how to use your DAW.

If you're not sure if you're 'intermediate enough,' ask yourself: Can I create an 8-bar loop that sounds good? Do I understand what automation is? Do I know how to use FX even if I'm not an expert? If yes, you're ready.

This is the fear that keeps you stuck, isn't it? You've bought courses before. Downloaded them. Meant to watch them. Never did.

Here's why this is different:

#1 This is live. You can't procrastinate a live weekend workshop. You show up or you don't. There's no "I'll do it later."

#2: You'll finish a track by Sunday evening. Not "someday." Not "when you get around to it." By the end of the workshop, you will have a complete arrangement. That's not a hope - that's what happens when you show up.

#3: You're working alongside other producers. The social accountability alone changes everything. You're not alone in your studio wondering if you should keep going. You're part of a cohort, all finishing tracks together.

#4: The system is designed for completion. The four steps aren't vague concepts - they're specific, bite-sized actions with clear endpoints. You'll know exactly when you've completed each step and can move to the next one.

#5: If it's not working after Day 1, you get your money back. Zero risk. Zero hassle.

So the real question isn't "Will I finish this course?"

It's: "Am I willing to commit one weekend to breaking the cycle I've been stuck in for years?"
