Old music

[latigid on]

A little while ago I found my collection of mp3s I made with my band about 10 years ago. Everything is LoFi with distortion and dropouts as the jams were recorded onto a dynamic mic and then cassette tape, then transferred to the computer. No processing in post, mistakes not fixed, no song titles, just the code of the tape and a few descriptors. The mixes are often off, and these were just recorded as they come, so can be quite long-winded. But I still find them quite cool.

Synths/keys used are Moog Voyager, Rhodes '73, Rhodes Chroma, a couple with MS-20. Sherman Filterbank, RE-150 Space Echo and Moogerfooger effects. I play bass on a couple.

You'll probably like the "jungle" drum and bass drums (all live), and there's some vocals too. The singer probably prefers that his levels are low :).

Can't be bothered with Soundcloud/youtube at the moment, so I'll post links to dropbox.

I think the delay used here is a Boss DM-300, a 4096 cell BBD. The input is overdriving which gives some very crunchy sounds on the Rhodes. 

If anyone likes, I can post the longer ones which go up to +20 minutes continuous. Mostly it's dub/drum'n'bass style but there are some different ones too.

Best,
Andy

Nice job! :-)

I really like the lo-fi-ness of the recording, perfectly fits the genre! :-)

Many greets,

Here's a long one

A bit of drum'n'bass and goes into some more ambient house stuff. The bass on the Rhodes is a bit "flabby" but there you go.

Here's one based on big beat with a lot of analogue Rhodes Chroma pads and FX, distorted Voyager + Sherman Filterbank. Dark at the beginning but quite uplifting later on. :).

A bit slower. Intro is very ambient but it gets better :)

Very cool stuff! Was that an actual didgeridoo or a sample in the beginning? Sounds great!
(I once imported one on the way back from Bali. The customs officers were not pleased and searched manically, if anything else was hidden in there :))

Many greets!

Thanks! The sound at the start is the Rhodes Chroma as are the later pads. I can't remember if it was going through any effects, but it's probably the raw synth. The bass is Moog Voyager.

I have another one that sounds a bit like a didge, but it's just a Sherman Filterbank 2.  It's pretty rough though, so I'll save your ears :).

This one is also quite cool. The bit at the start is funny as Matthias (also drums) is describing his friend Simon playing a joke on him. Somehow John (bass) and I set up the chord progression and off we go. The end is a bit rambly but it's a jam after all!
