evil folder

My shortest WB sprint so far. Just over 4 hours from OP-1 blank slate to internal Album recording. But there's a bit more history:
* Concepts from January 2017: "they're evil" and "wrong folder"
* Started riffing a few days ago on a B section (the descending melody). Got the idea for the rolling rhythm instead of the drum and bass vibe.
* Fleshing out those ideas and outlining the track structure this morning
* <5hr before the deadline, started tracking in the OP-1 from a blank slate
All internal OP-1 sounds, recorded one take to internal Album. Bit of post touch-up.
I really like the main bass and drums to this. The bass is a few similar DSYNTH patches, sequenced in 3 layers. The drums are a stock drum kit, trimmed short and an envelope-following Nitro for punch. Definitely hit just the crunch I was going for.
The rest fell short for lack of time. Too ambitious concepts for texture and structure. Only got to lay down a shallow sketch of the harmonies and atmospheres I had in mind.
