The super brother

This week i didn't find any inspiring samples, so i've tried to make some oldschool hiphop.
The beat and the main synth line is done on a volca sample...
i'm feeling not too comfortable with this little machine and the crippled sequencer, would be much nicer if you could trigger samples in song mode...
so i 've added the vocals and the trumped later in the daw...

Have a nice week,
Gunnar

There are better sampler around, I guess. You are more the MPC-type to me, especially when you dig your records. Have a nice week too.

It's a nice catchy beat.  I dig it.

Fun track, like the melody with the bells, volca sample is fun to play with, great for the price, but certainly has many limitations

love that tinny melodic hit/bell sound.

great stuff!

Ja, the volca is fun and I like the sound and some things just happen while using the knobs smile

Congratulations. I know what you are going through. This Akai-machine is has a special logic, but it is a
powerful standalone solution. Looking forward to hear your 1st MPC track.
