my banana's name is frankie

i started with 3 daisy chained monotrons plugged into a swollen pickle fuzz and two delays.

i got a lot of great noise and about 15 really great kick drums with various levels of laser zaps and fuzz crunch.

i combined these with snare samples from an0va's nanoloop sample pack and added hi hats and crash sounds from reason.

at this point there wasn't a lot of time left before the deadline and all i had was a short instrumental with decent samples but not a lot else going on. so i ripped a scene from the last episode of bunheads and laid it over a simple intro.

this is obviously only the barebones of a beginning of a track but i think it came out kind of promising!

thanks man! i know the point of this website is to only post finished songs but i've kind of fallen into just posting first drafts, which i'm honestly pretty stoked about. i want to give 20 of these to some other musicians and maybe make a band out of it!

Great crescendo.
