Hey there,
Thanks for the review. To answer your question, I had recorded each part individually and wasn't sure how I wanted to mix them together, so I put samples together getting a feel to see if the melodies would work off each other, they did, so it just stuck.
I purposely used an off-tempo for timing, while I would use a metronome or a drum beat, it rarely ever gets in the final cut. Unless I do my own percussion, nothing really soothes me, to me, the default drum beats all sound too synthetic. Ironic since I use a synthesizer, but for percussion, you get the point. I haven't seen you on, or just muss you when you are. However, I really wanted to say thanks for the review. Unfortunately, I haven't recorded anything in a long time since both synth's are broke.
