BitBuckets (Progress(ion))

By hamx0r on March 3, 2018 5:57 am

Phase 2 of 3.  I now have a funk orchestra made 100% of subtractive synths, with the exception of the drums which are 8-bit samples.  I'm using Reason 8 and all non-drums are Subtractor patches. 

There's some disagreement on the 2nd measure of each progression as to whether it's major or minor.  I plan to clean that up for the final rendition.  I'm considering a Clav solo to play over everything else that's going on, and perhaps even a B Section.  Using 58% shuffle really makes it feel pretty good, and even though it's all so synthy, i think it has a bit more soul than a normal chip tune funk track.
