Struggling to upload my festival set from lastnight cos still at festival and reception sucks. Not loosing my streak due to technical difficulties lol. Will update soon!

UPDATE: Ok uploading now!! Not mastered ... sounds a bit dry straight off the desk. I have a microphone recording too that sounds a bit more lively will put in this mix when get a chance.

Almost back on track!

Short hip hop loop made with the Tonic, Nord Rack, 0-Coast and Wavestation.

Kind of like last week's, this week's tempo was all over the place before I tracked guitar and bass. Finally it seemed like uptempo dub, so here we are. Percussion is the 64-pad Jazz Drum Rack, 64-pad Dub Techno kit, Impulse of some hand drums I have, and hand claps. Keys are Puremagnetik Mark I Rhodes, Drawbar, and CP-70. Guitars: baglama-tuned Heit Deluxe for clean-ish rhythm, and Epiphone Moderne (Reuss RF-01 Fuzz and Vox Wah). Bass is the usual Epiphone P-J (with EQ8 to roll off lows).

Sends: auto-filter to roll off lows before a convolution reverb (marble foyer), and two Echo channels, one Dub Syndicate with high-pass, and one Analog Triplet with an LFO-bandpass filter in front. Full-chain master on everything, and auto-pan on the keys and percussion.

I submitted this, and then listening back...didn't like the lower mids. Here's a corrected mix (still on Sunday!)

Title from the use of erbium in lasers..

When you don't do music in like three weeks, you end up losing a lot of ability. I got kind of lazy doing this.

A friend of mine is launching a podcast and we talked about a theme song for it! The podcast has a heavy stoner theme, so I played into that as best as I could being someone who does not smoke a lot of pot.

She provided a sample of her singing which is what started the track.

One i found on my drive. I really want it to sound more analog - but didn't have time to re-write it.

I have given up trying to master my own tracks. I just turn knobs and guess. Anyway,, this track was going nowhere so I just topped and tailed it and put it here.

Just randomly found this half finished thing on my desktop. It even had (a very badly recorded) track of a thunderstorm in it so I sprinkled it up with some rain on a tent (https://mynoise.net/NoiseMachines/campingRainNoiseGenerator.php) and recorded some additional drums (and cut out the bad parts in the old drum tracks and viola.
