overunder - Op-1, Rhodes



Fifth in the series, I am really have'n a blast with this. Put a switchup into the middle. Again, the keyboard is my broken Rhodes (repairing soon!) and the the rest is op1 - all is composed and edited strictly in the op1 and dumped to youtube etc.

clouds - Op1, Rhodes



I got hold of an old Rhodes54. I've been waiting about a month for it to come in and it finally arrived today!!  As suspected its in need of some TLC....  a couple of keys on the low end are pretty messed up and inside there are some tines out of alignment, but I went ahead and made a track with it anyway. The sound is great and its nice to have a  keyboard I can play with 2 hands! I will have a lot of fun learning to play on this thing. :)

viewport - Op1



3rd in the set, another practice of work flow and stuff. Feeling like i am pushing it a bit too much, and the first track of these was a better balance. Def still finding a line to draw on that...

afteryou - op1



Another messy track, just the way i like 'em. I think I went a bit too distorted on the bass. With the work flow I am using, its very easy to go too far. Live and learn....

Unclear : Op1



Working on a new style. It turned the closest so far to what I was trying to do. Getting things to sound mushed together was a lot harder than keeping it all separate, lots of layers and editing. I want to try and make more tracks like this and get the process under control.

SimpleBeat - Op1, Octratrack.




Some loops from the Op1 mixed up on the Octatrack, and some very light fader action.

BeatChops - Op1 and Octatrack.



Slicing up a loop on the op1 and midi sequencing via Octatrack, sampling, and playing around a bit.
