Get off grid.

Get more authentic sounding 808’s.

Composition, I can feel where it wants to go and the near potential is great.

Yea, everything doesn’t need to be perfect with time correct.
Some things yea, somethings no.

My basslines start with no time correct, I go for the feel of the keys first, afterwards I nudge each wayward note to where I want it.

Yeah i didnt really play this one with the keys @ lamp i felt out the key and just kinda schmammed on the pads. its very brick walled "bip ba bip ba bew bew bew" robotic. Most songs i get a rhythm going then hit it up with the keyboard but i wanted to be different this time and not do that but it definitely lost some human element.

Don’t listen to me, our styles and methods may be wildly different.
