Hi everyone, so happy to try my hand at WB once again. Things are starting slow with a quick and dirty jam with a spirit of a cheap Squarepusher knock-off. See you next week!

Hey AdB! Is the avatar picture from the game Another World? For some reason, it reminds me of it.

I like the choice of the water drop sounds, it really sets a dark tone to the track before the other instruments get in. There is some inspired piano playing in this track! That track's a trip, with some breakbeats as well. I'm looking forward to more of your tracks this year!

I too enjoyed the rain and bubble sounds - gave me like Jet Set Radio Future vibes overall. Cool mix of electronic and analog/organic samples and sounds

dope edgy sound

Really enjoyed this, like that murky wet percussion to start things and great use of sounds in unusual ways

Thanks!! Yes it's from a cutscene of Another World haha. Jazzy piano + breakbeat is one of the thing I like to do the most, so there is definitely more to expect around the year. Also curious to hear your work for the next weeks ! Cheers (from France too !)

Thank you very much ! The electronic/organic balance is something I try to master, hope to do some progress during the year. Never had the chance to play Jet Set Radio but I will check the OST !

Thank you so much ! You're right, the sounds at the beginning aren't exactly rain sounds but percussive synth drowned in reverb haha. Cheers!

when the breakbeats showed up after that jazzy piano line around 1:20 I started hooting and hollering. really enjoyed your playing. jazzy keys & breakbeats is an incredible vibe, keen to hear more!
