Latest tune…

I knocked out a quick tune last night..

You can hear it here. As always the disclaimer is: “it ain’t finished yet”; subtext: “…and probably won’t ever be…”

Things I like: the offbeat squirches when the kick and snare comes in; the dropped echoey electric piano; the slightly conflicting wash behind the back and the way that it comes to the front near the end of the mix

Things I don’t like: the bass line. That fucker is SO lazy. Sorry about that – I was tired at the time and couldn’t think of anything more interesting to do with it; the mix is also pretty lazy, but that’s me through and through. I need a TECHNICIAN to do that trivial stuff for me :-)

This, and a whole other bunch of unfinished aural fiddlings are here.

    Really like it, Mike; blippy, minimalist perfection.

    Nice, is it just me or are some of the sounds early 80s synthpop, Synth Britannia having its influence

    Thanks Zoe. Yes, might well be some hat-tipping to those ace bits of hardware… mm, mellotron… :-)
