Stylotron

this week my idea was to use a track using just these two guys. the monotron produces an astonishing amount of sounds for a cheap synthesizer, so it kind of steals the show. I mainly concentrated on using the low end of this little synth, so it supplies the bass and beats, mainly (with a few sound effects thrown in). the stylophone is used more like a keyboard. at the time I purposely left the volume low, so you get some weird line noise (since this synth has a very distinct sound was trying to cover it up a bit I guess). I ended up drowning it in reverb, so it sounds like some weird old horror movie keyboard.
another unique aspect is that I was housesitting for someone, and I brought these over and entertained the cat. not sure if creating in another person's house changes what I did, but it's at least an interesting concept, and part of why I did the small synth only track.
