I was in a big MPC mood this weekend. But it turned out that I felt more like drinking tequila, playing Dead Cells, and watching guitar videos on YouTube. Fortunately, I had this silly thing in my back pocket from earlier in the week. It's basically a ripoff of the bridge from the Paula Temple remix of Planningtorock's "Human Drama". But I think it sounds kinda cool. Hopefully something with a bit more to it next week...

It's immediately engaging and not only does it sound kinda cool, it also sounds REALLY cool!

Thank you smile I'm glad you like it!

Niiice, this is so satisfying to listen to, especially considering its simplicity.
Somehow I'm not at all across Paula Temple or Planningtorock. Will definitely be listening to some of that this week.

It's got an air of mystery about it.

Thank you so much! I was afraid others would find it boring, but it's encouraging that it still worked for you.

Paula Temple has become one of my favorite, I guess, dance music producers. Planningtorock is just a band she remixed. I think as a remixer she tends to get lost in whatever paths the sounds lead her down - for example, her remix of Knox's "Redline" is one of my favorite things, but it sounds absolutely nothing like the source material.

It does, doesn't it? I need to figure out what those chords actually are... hehe

They mostly sound like minors and minor 7ths I guess, but it's the swells that sell them as mysterious.

I think you're right about them being 7ths. I'm really into those recently.

Cool, yeah I listened to the original and the remix and they're definitely vastly different. Both pretty interesting though. Definitely keen to listen to more of Paula.

This has some strange,slow-moving grandeur to it. Very lovely soundfield. Great stuff...

Thank you very much! I set up the SuperCollider synth with 5 oscillators that randomly change their panning and detuning every note, and each chord had at least 4 notes, so it got pretty swirly!

Soothing. Very nice.

Enjoy the swells and the kind of haunted church basement atmosphere.
