Return 2 Start

Messing about on the Push with various sounds. Ended up liking a few different themes I had going so made the first a 16 bar intro, and the rest being the other two grooves. Beat gets popping at about 1:20. This one was tougher. My messing about sessions had generated many tracks with many clips and didn't know where to go or what to do. Kept noodling around, and finally, thanks to looming deadline just made some choices: this is what stays, the rest goes. As usual I managed to keep quite a few layers in there just to keep things interesting for me .
As one of my goals this year is adding vocals, I did some freestyle vocals into the Kaoss Pad this morning and dropped in various bits of those. Rendered mostly unintelligible yet again. Another pass through the vox for this one sounds like a good iteration to do in future for this one.
The string instrument that dominates first part and comes in and out the rest is a Zeze from Tanzania. An artist called Behr sampled that and put it into a nice Ableton pack. It's free for download from his site, along with other African sampled instruments, great packs. Used Arp on the rack to get these patterns.
Title comes from the first words that popped in my head when started the vocals.
