Pretty organic one here - just came from goofing around. Still using the hell out of some of these sounds. Let me know if you love it or hate it.

oh they reminded me of

kaibuster definitely asked the right guy for pointers on making badass trap.  How cool is this?  (Answer: +fav cool)

It's a weird connection to make, but: this particular timbre of synth, beat, and sloowwwed-down vocal sample dredges up foggy memories of what I think was a stage BGM from either Persona 3 or 4―which makes me think I should take another look at those OSTs, because I didn't pay much attention to them the first time around but this sounds rad af.

BOOBOOOOMMMMMM

Thank you!!!

Oh wow thank you - I hadn't even made that connection! That is a recording of a vanilla turntable scratch record, then scratched via the m8

So bassy! My organs enjoy the jiggle. I didn't get the r2d2 reference first, but on a second listen.

Sounds like you are using decent speakers - sure beats the headphones I use to make these with :]
Thank you!

Inspiring and cool track! I don't have a sub, but the bass is very deep and well balanced. (Something I'd like to master.)

Thank you for checking it out and taking the time to comment! I hope you can jam this with a friend who does have a sub :]
Although no guarantees - I did not produce this with a sub so it might be surprising what's down there.

Supergood track. Love the magic deep bassdrum and the cool and sweet electronic sounds, hold together by that smart synthpads. nothing that should be hated here.

I have a bad habit of sending you texts instead of leaving comments, this shit is blunted for real, that bleepage is the shiiiizzlze.

TODO: practice / understand your M8 scratch technique, been meaning to for a while...

Ha both are appreciated. Scratch technique is a little informed decision from actual scratching and a lot of luck getting it to do the same thing on m8.
Protip: use individual samples vs slices - I tried with slices this time but they have a few peculiarities in how they sometimes behave when you start zipping around in time and playback motion, so I'll stick to single wavs for now.
