Originally I was planning on something a little a little more abstract but after a bit of experimenting in the beginning this track basically made itself.

The base sample is an E-Piano loop I recorded (or rather: bounced in Ableton) and then slowed down to 50%. As usual, a lot of XLN RC-20 and Cymatics Origin involved in getting the sound as crunchy and noisy as possible.

All in all, this took about 2 hours start to finish and I am happy with the result. Could I have taken a couple of extra passes on the noodling or at least make it a tiny bit more quantized? Sure. Do I think it would've helped? Probably not.

Sweet little beat, nice and crunchy.

Thank you!

Love how dusty sounding the break is. I made some stuff like this during the pandemic. I should release it. I've been sitting on it forever.
