Circulator

This beat was made while teaching my Sound I summer class about making sample-based beats in Reason software. It is named after the new Circulator energy-efficient free bus in Baltimore. My main non-drum samples here are from my piece “Granite Breathing” for brass quintet and percussion, a trill from a Bach cello suite, a bit of toy piano that I recorded myself, and a flutey slice of an orchestral piece by my former composition teacher Param Vir.

Am I hearing a bit of Bill Laswell influence here?
