Rad Rodgers Theme - Neon or Death

Miguel Campbell - Something Special (Slamponetti Remix)

In early 2006 I was working on a bunch of drum 'n bass tracks, which I published as the 'Mindsurgery' EP (buy here: https://schmid.bandcamp.com/album/mindsurgery-13). 'Definition' is one of my favourites, an experiment in form, carefully replicating the form of a certain mid-90s drum 'n bass track.

The track was created in Ableton Live 5. It's incredibly simple, only 9 tracks. 

All plugins used were freeware. The beautiful arpeggio synth that appears at 2:12 is the EZPoly VST synth by Krakli Software playing the preset 'SEQ Lothlorien TC' by the late Tim Conrardy.

Other plugins used:

Etiquiet2 (Krakli)  - hi-pitch string synth from intro
Chill (Krakli) - snarling bass from 0:12
Shortcircuit (Vember Audio) - sampler used for breakbeat
C3 Multi Band Compressor (slim slow slider)
Voxengo SPAN - Spectrum analyzer

The track contains samples from:

Jimmy McGriff: The Worm [1968] - break
James Brown: Hot Pants [1971] - tambourine
Van Helsing [2004] - screams and ambience
Ghost in the Shell [1995] - servo sound
Pac-Man
FSOL: Egypt
DJ Shadow / DJ Krush: '89.9 Megamix' (Incorrectly titled 'Hermit Kid'?)
Tricky: My Evil Is Strong

This is the original 160 BPM version of the track. I released a 170 BPM version to conform with the rest of the tracks on the Mindsurgery EP.
