Fifth Release from Hozpitality!!

This was a collaborative effort, which is the cornerstone of Hozpitality, to incorporate new creative techniques with a few new gadgets. Technology is a wonderful thing, great (and somewhat silly) minds make technology better. Once again, a lovingly slapped together assemblage of “heightened musical vignettes”.

** Still aint makin money off this crap.  Still more fun than money can buy to make it.  Once again, the best compensation for this effort would be any sort of comment left here on this blog.  Hozpitality thanks YOU (and your Pre Made Toast).

This is a test!!!

I can still hear myself…

Kaossilator Pro + New Microphone = Robots First Shot

Got a nifty $20 mic for the Kaossilator Pro. That means I can now use the 15 Vocoder options on the thing. This was my first shot at it. Took me about 1 hour to make.

The lyrics are:
Hozpitality (x8)
Dont be a douche bag cause all people are douche bags.
You can suck my balls and kiss my ass right now.

Sorry it was the only thing I could come up with lyrically.

Kaossilator PRO Glow!

Yes! Another busy box! This is mega ultra stacked with sounds and gadgets. This is just like the yellow one, only you can have 4 (not just 1) stacks of loops and you can actually save them/export them without recording them live. In this case, I recorded 6 loops (with varying amounts of things stacked in each) and exported them as wav files (via the USB connector from the KPro) and slapped them into Acid Loops. I changed the key on half of them from E to C, then laid them out in a quick and dirty ABACAB layout (I didn’t wanna spend all day on it).

Needless to say, this is a MUCH simpler way to make music. I’m sure Bob will rate this like I’m going for a top 10 blockbuster hit, but it is just an initial experiment to get a sample of it on the blog. The phasing and volume effects were added in Acid. Stay tuned for more!
