"Spine-shredding scattershot drum programming, twisted blips with congo-bongo orgy, big reverbs - Skull Disco. This new label hides 2 producers: Shackleton and Appleblim. After the first 12" single released - before the second one I asked them about the past and the future."

good work, Dubster. I see Appleblim around quite regularly at the Bristol raves - top geezer. Been meaning to quiz him about his background etc. Looks like you did all the hard work for me, cheers!

Surprising he managed to produce a stonking record with just FL and manually programming the piano roll! I've just resigned to finally buying a keyboard after two years - I just can't hack the manual bizness!

Thats not what I was saying, I've been doing the same thing for two years too - just that it is time consuming to say the least!
edit* I'm also refering to synth lines over beats - I would still much rather program them individually anyhow - in fact I use acid and place hit by hit separately rather than using a sampler at the moment - although I'm trying to get battery working (its currently refusing to be controlled properly..)

On the other end of the scale, some twat that no-one likes was slagging me off on NSB for not having a 4 octave keyboard!
