Haha I appreciate the enthusiasm. It’s funny how the sound evolves to something distinctive, we’ve honestly barely discussed it. We just pass stems back and forth until we’re happy. I think our skill sets compliment each other well, Stephen is a proper musician and makes up for a lot of my shortcomings.

I haven’t release a solo project in almost 3 years, so it’s way less impressive than it sounds. There’s probably an album and a few eps in there. Some of it is 80-90 bpm slow, heavy dub and it goes up to 140 bpm techno with a dubby flavour. I’ll just keep writing as long as the inspiration is there and sort it all out at the end.

Always wanted a mutronics mutator - possibly only because of it’s name. I’ll probably buy the behringer copy of it ever comes out.

Can’t believe it’s been 5 years already. Wish I had a pile of cash sitting around with nothing else to do with it.

Congrats! Did you put it together on spec and send it to them?

    apyssjw …I did. Know them a bit from projects years back, but still was a bit intimidating as they are ‘proper’ producers and kinda studio heroes of mine. Thankfully they both loved it and thought it was a really respectful approach. Worked out well in the end! 🙂

      Fantastic work Damo. Made up for you. 👍

        I know what you mean - but we are all proper producers here 🙂

          Great work Damo. Congratulations!

            Unbroken1 Great baseline in that. Solid track even before the original elements come in. Congrats, Damo.

              OXI One MKII out now. Really tempted by this as an external sequencer to Ableton.

                Yes. I use it religiously for stem extraction. It’s by far the best extraction I’ve come across and they make it easy to even remove effects if you so choose.

                Some of the transport functions are a bit finicky and take getting used to., but what it lacks in those areas it makes up for in the stem extraction. It’s constantly being improved too.

                  loopdokter I have used Traktor 4’s stem separation which works well for tracks with few elements. It split Bicep Umber really welll for instance, because that has pretty clear bass, drums, pads, vocal. More complicated material is a bit of a challenge for it.
