About the mix:
I recorded this mix on a beautiful spring afternoon, which at the moment is rare for London as we’ve been deprived of any sun recently! I roughly sketched it out and then pressed play on the first track, beginning the recording as the sun was setting and by the time i finished it was dark outside. I was fully in my own world when recording this and it felt good to take things a bit deeper and have those emotional moments, with tracks such as Roman Flugal’s Lucy, which for me is such a beautiful song and Hollis P Monroe’s ‘I’m Lonely’ which is one of my all time favourite tracks. The mix is a real groover with some trippy moments, it ramps up, but never fully smashes through the front door.

New to music production, currently learning Ableton. This is my first bass track i've made. Good learning curve. After exporting it the first time it sounded great in the home studio, but when i mixed it into another track Dj'ing it was definitely lacking volume. Spent the evening learning about compression, limiters, saturators and all the rest of it to try and get it a bit more popping and louder. Seems to of worked. Could of sat there for months trying to figure out how it works and get it perfect, but I'm happy to to put it out there, move on and learn more moving into the next project. I made this on Labour weekend camping down the murray riverat you guessed it.... Neils Bend.  

Neils Bend - ROAMr

Orignally from Chirstchurch, New Zealand. Been on the move for 15 years and now settled in Albury in New South Wales. I've Dj'd since I was a young buck, influenced by 90's hiphop, jazz and mostly UK bass music. Decided its time to teach myself music production so I've picked up Ableton Live and a push to go with it. Lots to learn but going at my own pace.  Its never to late to learn something is it ??? haha will soon find out. After years of going by the alias of oBque ive decided its time for name change to reflect more on myself, hence the name Roamr.
