Four on the Floor

Last night Raf and I checked out the Legowelt live show. Overall it was pretty enjoyable, although the sound at the club was kinda crap ("Dear Paradise Lounge, please invest in some subs, thank you!"). One of the tracks he played was a sort of Detroit-ish 909+303 acid stomper...all it needed was a good couple of vocal samples "aciiieeed...hhhouse". Of course the kids loved it, and it made me realize that sometimes I overthink music. Aggressive repetition isn't necessarily a bad thing! Tonight I worked on the EMX a bit more, and came up with this work-in-progress. Two patterns on the EMX-1, tweaked live and recorded straight into the computer. And HOLY CRAP I just discovered that the EMX has a note-randomize function (look under the MOVE DATA and/or SHIFT NOTE menus) -- good stuff!
