And in the closing weeks of my sabbatical project, when I should be focusing on finishing and mastering songs and idk like releasing an album in some manner, I bought a used Korg Volca FM to fiddle with, and it was good.
It’s making the twangy/clangy sound here. The drums are from the Volca Beats, and chaining them together made me instantly see the appeal of buying more little physical boxes to hook up and tweak knobs.
There’s a Prophet V-based Analog Lab preset doing a wah-wah thing with a longer attack, and a “Dilla Marimba” Ableton instrument from some free sound pack I downloaded a while back. (RIP JD.)
And now, back to mild stress about finishing the missing verses of things and shoring up the mixing, mastering, and sequencing of the “real” project.
