Denial Guilt and Fear

Since the Virus C has been happily active in recent weeks I decided to revisit the huge patch library I have saved. So I spent a big chunk of time just browsing how many patches could make the main chord progression sound super wide and thick. A few pads were taken from the Roland but most of the big pads and odd fx are from the Virus. It's not the greatest piece of gear to perform live with (not that I have in years) but when it's working correctly the Virus has an inspiring sound. The drums were a hodge podge of chopped/slowed loops. The ending was my lazy attempt at pretending I was Nils Frahm. My arps definitely don't get as chaotic and mesmerizing as his track "Says" (google Nils Frahm Says KEXP Live if you're interested). Of course he awesomely plays all that stuff live while I'm squinting at the monitor nudging all of my off rhythm mistakes. Thanks for listening!
