It has been quite some time since I posted anything on the blog. I figured I should put something here since I pay for it and the numbers (what little I get) are dropping to nothing.
Today I thought I’d do some drone’y ambient’y thing with the Volca’s and this new Zoom MS-CDR-70 effects pedal. I have it connected to the output of the mini-mixer that holds the Volca Bass, Beats, and Keys. It has a lovely shimmer effect that I over used on this track.
This track was really slapped together (as most are) with little edits. Everything here is a hardware synth (no MIDI or Ableton was used).
Ingredients:
Korg Volca Keys and Bass (through Zoom pedal)
Korg Minilogue XD with tons of Riser reverb
Korg MicroKorg with tons of delay from the Korg MiniKP (red box)
Korg Kaossilator Pro with 2 drum patterns and a little solo lead synth noodling.
I recorded the thing at 60bpm but things are triggered haphazardly and initially when the drums kick in, its off beat. But if you listen and let the trance wash over you, it sort of catches up (hence the quicky song title).
It’s about 10 minutes long. Probably TOO LONG, but enjoy either way
How come we keep driving and driving but we never get further away from the city?
Cause it’s like hotel california but better. You can check out but you can never leave! LOL ?
I feel like I’m going to the airport, desperate to stop my lover from getting on that plane. DON’T GO! Aaaaargh!
But. I get there and the plane has just taken off. This is the music I hear driving back to the city. Back to the Nineties style loft we shared as a couple, I do a line of coke then I sit down and write the screenplay for “Less Than Zero”…
