SP404 PO33 sampled beat business with some D O double G remix action

Junipero

Made this break using a method i picked up from watching the Beatnuts Rhythm Roulette (Psycho Les was separating all the drum kit tracking each element in pro tools to create a break). The flip is an old jazz cover with a range of varied effects to derive a new melody. 

Hope rises as I say "why can't I".

Solano

This track evolved with a few horn edits and I almost moved on from those sounds but I pressed on and found something I really liked in terms of rhythmic fit within the whole

Valparaiso

Little beat sketch turned into something I really liked when I started playing with effects in the 404 That thing can help you find some things on the low end if you take the time.

Paseo

Choppin crates up in Serato Sample and chasin' it with some choice drums. 
This should be named Esplanade or Tchoupitoulas because of the main source records but you know their funk spilled all down the Mississippi and around the world.

El Camino

This track was something I actually mixed with two records and discovered the potential combo. Tracked out the elements in ableton and sent the tracks out to the 404 for some flavor bits.

West Coast based Music Junkie with all kinds of influences. I push paper and strollers by day and these keys and buttons once the kids are in bed.
