An hour or so of killing time in this foul weather, I'm freezing, need a fat bass to warm me up. Used Cubase 5, two loops spliced and diced for beats and three of my own patches in NI Massive. Vocal sample from 80s action film.

Badge & Gun

Work in progress. 5 hours spent mainly working out what the **** was wrong with Massive (the database needed deleting and rebuilding. Gimp). Drums cut from one loop, rearranged and stretched etc. 2 home brew Massive patches. Sample from pet grooming advice video. 

The Tips

Again, incomplete. Must get around to finishing a track on day... Track took ages, looking for a sample, eventually settles for something completely different to what I'd been working with. Basic beat, 3 patches on Massive, however two are pretty much the same play the same MIDI. Sampled some of Massive to layer it up without the VST crashing, again, due to multiple instances. If you haven't seen 'The Final Seduction', you should do.
