[loungybreakbeat] Savanne

Been finishing up a bunch of tracks that take inspiration, samples from music out of Mali that I will put on an ep later this year. Start & end might be subject to change for this one.

Enjoy  or not  .

Bringing out my leopard skin for this one. Did you sample vinyl records for the audio? I kept waiting for a melody hook to really top the track top off, but it's cool as is.

I liked this track! It has this sort of made-on-a-sampler vibe to it, but maybe it's just my impression because I spent a while listening to SP404 live sets on youtube. Anyhow I liked the laid back feeling and the vocal samples. The only thing that bothered me slightly were the drum stereo glitchy break parts, I think there were either too many or they were too prominent and kind of introduced too much complexity into the laidback-ness. But that's probably also because I don't listen to music with these kinds of percussion in it, so I am not used to processing it.

Cheers for checking a look,

I mostly work with Renoise, which can be considered as a pimped out sampler I guess :) . I got a few sampler electribes here that I've been mostly jamming with the few minutes I have spare time. Hope to incorporate that with Renoise one day, record the jammage & arrange/process in the tracker.
