This was a live piece I performed at LoveFest 2008. The whole arrangement is live, I created it in real time. The bits and pieces are mostly all original-- I took loops from my songs after I wrote them. I am using about 8 tracks in Ableton with various effects. The kick and bassline are on the same track, then there is a percussion track, atmosphere track, and a non-percussive loop track. There are two tracks for one-hit samples: one for vocal samples and one for any hits (cymbals, bangs, whooshies, etc..). Finally, there are two lead tracks. One plays prepared, 32- to 64-bar sequences (as .wav audio). The other, last lead track is special. It is hard to explain, but it basically allows me to create a lead in real-time. Spontaneous live lead action!

I have everything mapped to my midi controller. The knobs are assigned to effects. Some are just for the lead and others are global effects. The keys are assigned by octave. For instance, the C, C#, and D are always kick/bass loops. E, F, and F# are always drum loops, and so on. My keyboard has 11 octaves, so 11octavesx12keysX16midi-channels of samples for me to play with. That's 2112 different samples(!)

“The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.”

Kun ihmiset kuulee/näkee kun kotona näitä väännän tai spämmään kaikkia kanavia pitkin tuotoksiani, kaikki kysyy: "Miten muuten menee? Onks kaikki ok?" Tai sit "Älä lähetä noita enää, en halua kuulla!!" Joskus on kehuttukin: "Tulee oikein pahaolo kun tota kuuntelee" Eli omalla vastuulla... Saa antaa palautetta, en tiiä ehdinkö aina ottamaan vastaan mut...
