The response to RC-07 & to bandcamp waiving their cut of sales on the 20/03/20 has been so damn nice I wanted to give back in one of the only ways i know how with 2 club trax you can pay what you want for and I encourage you to take them for free!
The DeepNote is a UKG vibe that was maybe the first time I pulled off a nicely swung beat manually putting in the swing in the MPC inspired by some of the more extreme beats and rhythms by El-b and some DJ South Central Midnight T turned me onto, came out nothing like either.
I was going for that late 90s sound so all the sound design was done in the mpc1000 for the beats and the EMU 4XT Ultra sampler for the synth and bass sounds. I sampled the ESQ-1, OP-1 and some synths from my library for the synths.
The sub bass was a sample from my old Roland MC202 I heavily modulated in the EMU and to make the midrange bass I resampled the sub bass with some internal gain, slamming it hot through the mixer and resampled it with a bandpass or highpass filter in the EMU with a heavy amount of filter mod to the envelope to get some of that movement, maybe have had a slight un-synced LFO rolling over the filter too for extra movement.
Flug Bass was recorded in one live take on 10/10/2014 and was heavily inspired by AFX Analord series with some 909 action, xoxbox and multi-sampled synth patches that mixed oscillators from a juno and esq-1 to try re-create a synth patch similar to really unique and cool chorus-y bass patch you hear through Analord and the Tuss works that I think is from the Synton Fenix, again I didnt get close but had some fun on the way.
Enjoy and stay safe
