Dirty. Simple.

The early 2000's were the golden era for big beat and electronica. Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, and of course The Prodigy all started to breakthrough from the back bins at Tower Records to the front of the store. I remember seeing the earlier Prodigy albums all magically show up once Fat of the Land hit it. I would be lying if I said this time and these artists didn't play a big part in how I wanted this track to sound. But like them, I did it from scratch. I built the drums up from a dozen different loops, filtering and cutting out the parts I didn't want and putting the parts I did want, right up front and slammed them. The difference in crafting the drums versus layering or flat out using loops is \*unmistakable. \*While the loudness wars rage on forums and reddit, and the kids are busy tuning their kicks, I'll just do it the way it's been done.

Sometimes life just cuts you a break. These tracks are what I carved out in one of those breaks.

Chains

I have been neglecting my tracker too much, so I made a more drum driven song.

Fuzzy Bomb

I took a stroll at half 5 in the morning after a sleepless night and caught a really nice sunrise at low tide, birds chirping, waves crashing.

Seaside Sunrise

Another in the long list of tracks born out of the Covid-19 pandemic. This version is a rough final for review. Probably my favorite drums to date.

I was messing around with a boots and cats beats, and came up with this little bouncy number.
