Forty-One

Hi all smile
I made this little track in about 7 hours. It all started with a drum pattern i programmed in the MFB-522 drum machine and put it through the filter of the Arturia Minibrute. The bassline was played at the same time which overdrives the filter and gives a saturated, distorted sound. In the background you can also hear the recorded sound of a Steim Cracklebox clicking.
Several settings were recorded into Ableton Live where everything was cutted and additional elements like synthchords, samples and other stuff were added.

I wasn't really pleased about the result, so i fooled around with it and ended up reversing the entire track. hey, that sounds pretty cool and radiohead-ish smile hope you like it as well!

Cool!  That turned out to be a happy fool around.  It hardly sounds reversed even which makes it even better.  Nice one.

dreamy smile

Nice bass sound & I love the melodic ending

smile it sounds as if it was written with the reversal in mind, fantastic!

This made me giggle with excitement. I'm gonna have to try my hand at some reversed stuff.

Wow.  Very cool vibe going on.  Totally warm bass.  Just learnt what a Steim Crackle Box is too big_smile

I really like this.  Great feel with the reversal, and the riff is a good one--you could go all day on that.
