I'm a sample sucker! You can hear that complicated but yet thoughtful Socrates Strawman plan being supported here by your musical choices. Selfishly, I was looking for the main beat to transition with one of the samples. But I think it works wonderfully as is. Really fun!

Thanks glad you liked it! I was joking with a musician friend a while ago when he shared a track with an odd time signature that I didn’t know there were others than 4/4. Joking aside, I rarely change up my beats other than to drop them out here and there. Probably something I should work on.

O hell ya!!! This ones funky. Optimal groove has been achieved! Lots of cool sounds bouncing around and I’m a sucker for Socrates scarecrow. Also has a bit of dub to it. Great work! I want the album don’t forget me when it’s done!

Cheers! Glad you liked it. Korg Gadget is easy to use and has lots of synths and beat machines that make it easy to create. I added extra fx in AuriaPro to gnarly it up a bit and arrange the samples. Because I follow a similar process, I sometimes think the gadget tracks sound a bit formulaic or similar but maybe that’s just me.
