Caveman Eidolon

Half hour acid alert! Easter holidays equal less time for jamz and more time for marzipan.

I continue last week's experimentation with different tunings on the MonoMachine. Landed on an 11 EDO this Sunday for that ridiculous acid skewage. Fun times.

Live jam recorded to stereo in Ableton. One pattern looping ad nauseum, ad hoc muting the two drum voices for DYNAMICS and tweaking the octave knob on the sequencer for ARRANGEMENT. MnM acid bass goes through an Alesis Midiverb (setten and forgetten) for ambience.

Thanks for listening, peace and love!

11 EDO! Wild! This meandering bassline turned out very nicely. It groooves.

Groovy, slightly-controlled chaos. Dynamics and Arrangement acquired. This made my body move, which is bad because I'm at work and I can't dance.

some lovely easter acid smile

Thanks squelette, hope you enjoyed your holidays!

So funky, this is the best track I have heard in a little while!

This sounds weird - wait, it's expected to do that. Carry on, then.

Convincing me to pull out my MonoMachine too now. I am ashamed to admit that I've only ever used it for making samples and loops.
