Instead of laying out patterns into sections into song arrangements I have been recording myself raw improved live jamming on tunes and exporting those recordings. I found I was getting blocked in 8 second loops and nothing output for a year or two when trying to make arrangements of songs after years of doing it that way and have been live jamming recording last 4 years with great results.
Y2lhen AKA Lennie Budgell is an IDM/8bit/ Dance music producer from Saskatoon SK. Starting off his musical production with nothing more LSDJ he began experimenting and creating chip tunes and released 2 albums on Servered Digit Records.
New abilities and control came with the addition of computer tracker buzz tracker to the instrument pool and began to learn how a break beat worked. He then mashed up chip sounds with abstract samples of a cult leader and dirty fast sampled cut up breaks to produce a 8bit / breakcore / breaks album entitled Jonestown Breakdown. This was released on Dex and the City records and won Y2lhen wide praise by listeners
Live shows became a moshing dance party of cult like chants and praises and most ended up with people surrounding the young producer until there was very little room to perform which made for a hype environment but also a lot of equipment being knocked over / unplugged however the energy outweighed the slight technical difficulties.
Wanting to make a more straight forward dance album next Y2lhen got to work on his fourth full length album entitled Dance Theory which when finished was released on POP QUIZ!!! records.
