Description: 8bit nostalgia, composed and recorded live in 3 takes with polychord

Right about here, I hit a f-key palette that is preset with a blues scale for the 'solo'

This part that sounds like I'm powering up with a mushroom is simply me swiping the strum keys really fast. Since the strum instrument has no release, it gives it a really digital sound.

Now at this point I'm hitting the same pattern on the strum keys, but I'm using two fingers, so that each hit is a chord/harmony.

around here you can here me bend the strum key note a little -- you just press down and move your finger a little to the left to bend up, then back to the right to bend down (or release).

In the beginning, I'm using the filter slider on the chord instrument. You can also hear an arpeggiator set to random in the background


man, I'm really lagging behind the beat here! At least you know this is all LIVE.

an inspiring piece - I have just downloaded Ploychord so you have given me some ideas
