"For my 27th birthday I figured I should celebrate the spirit of giving by giving away my music. So here is my latest EP, a continuous mix I did in the style of Henry Homesweet's Lo-Bit Bassment sessions. These tracks were written during a short period of intense inspiration while traveling across the country: "Get Funky" was written on train rides between Princeton and New York City, "Union Square" was written on location in Union Square Park and in other parts of New York City, and "Minimize Me" was written while on a flight bound for Seattle. Altogether these songs were written in order, "stream of consciousness" style across multiple DS10 song banks, and were recorded as a continuous mix. You are hearing them as they were meant to be heard.I first decided to explore the idea of a classic house / techno style mix as a way of "getting back to my musical roots" while still maintaining my obsession with bass. This was also partially inspired by Jenn de la Vega's performance at the 2012 Blip Festival Open Mic; her track was a clear reminder of what can be accomplished with the classic analog sound of the KORG DS10. I should also mention that this release would not have been possible without D A Payne's Drum Kit loosely based on the sounds of the 808, which is as cool as the title suggests and was used heavily in writing these songs. I hope to release more mixes like this in the future, as soon as inspiration strikes again. Thanks for listening. If you like what you hear, all I ask is that you share this with your friends.
