These kind of sessions look like so much fun!! That track they made called "I Wear Flares" is stuck in my head too.

Thought this might be a bit too jazzy for DSFP, but this is closer to how I often work, usually solo though.

I have a bunch of instruments like electric bass, Rhodes, analogue synths, percussion and some mics that will get played and recorded into my daw. I generally don't mouse my notes in but will rather play them in live and then I will go back and chop and edit the different parts until I get what I want.

By the way, for those that don't know, that is Dego on the buttons and synths. He is one of the jungle originators, co-founder of Reinforced Records and half of 4Hero.

Fuck this, I'm back in. I'm not selling the Rhodes. I need to make music soon, but I need to finish this degree.

This was all up in some analog. Def Juno-106, maybe some MKS', I don't remember.

Fuck this, now my car won't start. I just had it in the shop twice, spent like $1600 and now this shit. Maybe I do need to sell the Rhodes.

Almost broke my wrist last night and it is still really sore.

About to lose it...

Melt down in DSFP...

I don't know what the compression is doing on a few kicks at the beginning and one on the end, but fuck it, I don't really care right now.

Fark, ear buds across the room, and I'm velcroed to the bed. Chin up dude, I promise shit could be much much worse. Just wank with the other hand, don't call it cheating, more of an open relationship.

Rhodes is my all time favorite keyboard sound. Nothing but nothing has the vibe of a Rhodes. It's at the top of my "some day when I win the lotto" list. You've gotta do what ya gotta do, but... I'd sooner sell my body than a Rhodes if I owned one.

For me, it is instant ideas on the rhodes (virtual, of course). I have to remember to write with it more often. Notes just make sense on there, intervals sound right, and meaningful.

Haha, it is building up! If you don't channel and release that energy it is going to go into all kinds of fucked up places and wreak havoc.

This stuff sounds good. Wish it was on sc so I could leave my patented trite nwj comments.

We all need that reminder all the time. I've been having a rough time, but I've got to remember I live like a freaking prince.

Doesn't mean that we don't want to take a chainsaw to reality every now and again.
