Maximal Tendencies by Singer and the Instruments

Having some fun and doing things a little differently (for me at least) on this one.

Afrofunky uses a licensed sample via TrackLib as they were running a competition (which I didn't win). I picked a track from Ghana called Tinitini by Nyame Bekyere and Seaboy to use as my starting point and had a lot of fun with it.

Constant Time features live bass played by my supremely talented niece, wrapped around a bunch of Roland Juno synths.

Mother Lambe is my first foray into hardware synths, with me and my friend Phil messing around with his Moog Mother 32 to create the bassline.

And finally, Korgin, is a full on hardware session, made almost entirely from recordings of Korg synths at the Musical Museum in Brentford - chopped up and layered over a 707 kick drum.
