Rag Dub

This week I wanted to try out some dub techno.
I started out with some keys into a reverb+delay and kickdrum and was pretty happy with it but then struggled a bit to add elements that made sense. I got something thrown together in the end but the flow was never really there.
The Sample was picked mainly because some folks on the discord suggested Toys/playing as a theme, its a clip I found on archive.org of a radio show from the 30s. It feels kinda spooky in this context so I went with that.
The other intersting (to me) thing for this week was the drums are made and sequenced in VCV rack and then I actually went to the trouble of making a multitrack output and routing it around in reaper for mixing. I learned a fair bit about how to do that kinda of routing in reaper but I don't know if the extra effort really imporved the mix very much.
