Clue (less)

Always amazed (and perplexed) at the mental places we all seem get to. Right now I have so many ideas for music and almost no time to execute, which is weird because normally I have NO ideas for music and NO time to execute LOL.

sounds very FMy... fun stuff

love the silly fm voices, like often heard in old nintendo soundtracks. fun little composition.

I feel with the m8 things are limited when it comes to writing nice solos over a cool beat. like u can make pretty sick beats and sections for a song but I always got stuck at some point where it's just too repetitive. like in this track at around 2:20ish I would feel the need for a sick solo or some other melodic content, but I know how hard it is to write with the 16ths interface of the m8 and it's such a hassle to record into it, or export, or whatever. maybe doing it live connected to a mixer and recording multiple tracks could be something idk.

anyway just a little braindump, wonder what u think about it. cool stuff tho!

Yeah, for some reason I knew I'd get caught this week. I admit this one was TOTAL dialed in speedtrash. Not proud of it, but only 28 weeks to go!!!! LOL. It takes work to make music on the m8 and I like to play freestyle on a regular keyboard to find melodies and solos, and then work to code them in. Sadly after travelling all week I only had time for this sharealike piece that others can add the killer solo to if inclined. smile
