Machinedrum Notes #104.10.2008 18:04:13

I wrote a small documents with some thoughts about sound design and techno on the MachineDrum. It is pretty much a work in progress. I enjoy writing down thoughts like these, because it allows me to formulate my concepts and musical goals much more clearly (most of them become clear when I write them down). This is a pretty personal document, as it applies to what I like in music, and to the flow I formualted for myself. I think a lot of people could benefit from it, so I'm uploading it here, with mp3 samples as well. If you have any similar documents lying around about your concepts and way of making music, feel free to contact and share them with me, I'm very interested!

Here is the MachineDrum Notes PDF document, and the zipfile containing the sysex and wav samples. This is the "song" I put together while jamming with both described patterns:
