Okay I need to say a few things. Please read before listening! I did not do the 24 hour challenge but I did try and hang around in the chatroom as much as possible with Glu, SisterS, and ChrisM while they battled through it. At about midnight…

Bethan you're very kind to even attempt to listen to this! The kick drum that runs through the track is the source of most of the sounds, just mangled, tortured, and beat into shapes & frequencies kick drums were never meant to reach.

New stuff has been slow in coming for me lately, but I found this lurking on my hard drive from a while back. Frankly don't remember how I did it except that it was all live to 2 tracks and at one point one of my synth patches glitched out on…

If that was lurking on your hard drive, you better go look and see if there is anything else on there. Great atmosphere...

Nice, nice, like it. I think I need to drop the guitar a bit and get back into some other stuff.

Yeah, I knew you'd catch that one. I'm thinking about taking trad tune titles and writing my own music to them...I may go sans looper for the rest though.
