Smooth.

Hey... glad that you joined.
Nice Track! The owl sample is nice way to introduce wink
the dr-5 vibraphone sounds real good... Always thought that this was more of a drum machine.
Nice finish with that slight crackle.

Hey, G! Thanks!
Yeah, the DR-5 looks like all the 90's drum machines that roland & boss made, but it's more of a midi sound module. It has drums and a ton of other sounds. Some really nice guitar, bass, piano, and even some raw sine wave synth sounds with a 4 track sequencer. I guess it was made as a rhythm machine for guitarists. It has a guitar tuner and you can even to use a guitar to input notes into it. Runs on batteries also. It's a really nice old machine. A friend of mine even bought one after playing with it. Thanks for telling me about WB. Looking forward to this challenge!

Haha I've never have guessed that heavy sounding vibraphone was a DR-5! HAd my DR550 for years, so limited yet very charming.

The whole wonkiness of the track is delicious. Perfect use of the SP vinyl effect, I believe you had us all fooled that was an ond jazz sample of sorts.

I've just discovered your music. Really diggin't the vibe. Sooo mellow

I'm glad you like it. Haha! I swear that vibraphone is nice on the DR-5. There are some hidden gems in these 80s and 90s drum machines and rhythm boxes. Thanks!

Hypnotic vibes indeed and digging the feel of the drums.  Nice work!
