Mag Stars

Instrumental hip hop made on a Dirtywave M8. Drums are from Samples from Mars' Private Reserve, bass played by me, Rhodes melody is programmed from samples, the weird rhythm feedback sound is a no-input guitar pedal chain going into a Monotron Duo, and the ringing bell is hitting a singing bowl. Everything else is onboard synths.

This started as a tribute to Ruff Ryders-style production, but strayed pretty quickly from that!

Cool vibe to this one.  It has a nice groove and a definite sense of swagger along with some cool textures.  Can't go wrong with having a singing bowl make an appearance.

Love samples from Mars I use it loads.

The bowl sample sounds great.

The synth that comes in around 1 minute reminds me of Tycho.

Love the weird rhythmic feedback sound, almost feels like it's rapping!
I can still hear the Ruff Ryders elements in this one, even if it is not as testosterone swaggy and more of a backyard hanging with friends chill bbq kind of bop.
