It’s got a nice mix of crunchy guitar and classic 303 sounds mixed in with more heavy drums and synths. Happy with how this turned out. Give a listen!https://bphogan.com/2019/12/live-recording/Mon, 16 Dec 2019 15:38:58 -0600https://bphogan.com/2019/12/live-recording/I’ve been working on a new tune. I decided to capture myself doing some improv with pieces of the tune.https://bphogan.com/2019/12/oldschool/Sun, 01 Dec 2019 15:31:05 -0600https://bphogan.com/2019/12/oldschool/When I was in college, I spent hundreds of hours using ReBirth, a music-making app that emulated two Roland 303 bassline synths, an 808 drum machine, and a 909 drum machine. Rebirth also had a number of effects and filters included. Unfortunately, support for ReBirth died many years ago. It doesn’t even run on macOS. If you were lucky enough to buy an iPad version a few years ago, you can still use that, but it’s no longer supported since Roland threatened to sue them so they took it off the store.
