The ORB Little Fluffy Clouds Freestyle Cover

Published on Aug 28, 2015 farmyfarm

"Another freestyle cover of The ORBS catchy 1990 electronic/ambient/ trance song 'Little Fluffy Clouds'. It's an ad-libbed demo with the new Roland TR-8 getting in the mix after I got it this week. Always dishing out the MTC is my trusty TR-707 which the TR-8 synced to effortlessly. This is a variation of the song played in real time, REMEMBER there are no DAWS, Computers or software synths EVER in my live performances. They have there place in my recording sessions but I love the freedom of expression that they just don't seem to provide in my applications."

"It is in good functional condition with the exception of preset button 7 which is broken and cannot store presets. The previous owner replaced the original battery so there are none of the usual problems with battery leakage. Motherboard was also replaced, with many new and old capacitors, resistors, etc. Beautiful cosmetic condition with very few marks, just a small chip in the wood panel on the right side which is pictured."
