Rattlesnaker

I streamed a show last Friday from my basement! It is on the Orange Drink Facebook page, but I will upload it to YouTube shortly.
I also got a Model:Cycles synth! I purchased it from WeeklyBeats' very own Hot Science! (Thank you 
) and shout out to 0F aka Pselodux who actually consulted on the development on the synth and has PRESETS AND PATTERNS ON THE MACHINE, Y'ALL! :-) I love FM synthesis and this will be a perfect entry point for me.
This was my first real attempt at programming something and playing live. I recorded a live jam and then edited out the "wait what button do I press" moments. I rarely, rarely, rarely do live hardware stuff, so I hope to learn this machine in and out in order to do a performance one day!
This is all done on one 16 step pattern - just trying to keep it simple as I am still learning. There is so much variation you can do though, between the programming and the live tweaking.
The sizzle hi-hat made me think of a rattlesnake, but the droning bass also brought a slithering pattern to mind, so I was very happy when the concept and the execution came together at the same time.
Also, I found a Derek Jacobi pic I've never seen before, so I think I'm actually having a great day today.
