hellew. i made this song as part of a quixit (http://r2h.org/doc/quixit-faq.txt). it's where ppl from em411.com get together in irc and make a tune in an hour, hour and a half...

using only the samples provided in the quixit (think one hour compo), i proceeded to slice them up in snd. i loaded the pieces of the drum break into one instance of specimen, and pieces of the flute and airy pad in another instance of specimen. i then programmed an 8 bar drum loop in seq24, alongside an 8 bar loop of a melody i made using the flute+pad. i recorded both of these into ardour2 (rc2, worked like a charm), alongside with sample tweak-out using kluppe. after that i adjusted the arrangement a touch, and fired up tranches (controlled using vkeybd), routed the recorded drums into tranches from and back into ardour2, and did beat repeating/slicing from half way though in-on-out. i'm pleased with the end result. all made in approx one hour. :)

thanks for listening,
james
