About

Music is not only a hobby, but a place of refuge.
There are mostly ios creations but I'll play some guitar and what not here and there. Sound is a giant sand box. On going battle with hoarding got me an odd collection of instruments which I should learn how to record better. I would be interested in more collaborations so inbox me if interested. Good thing it wasn't the Apocalypse theres too much cool music I still have to hear :)

    @apapdop: one of my favorite things to experiment with samplr is to force loops to become instruments. Thanks for checking it out, I try to keep things together if only with duct tape :)

    @apapdop: thank you, I have been enjoying the process of foraging for sounds. I picked up a few panning tricks listening to your tracks.

    loved the glitchy distorted beat, you have got a knack for the ielectribe. The sample was a nice touch as well.

    Has a relaxed happy feel to it, i've used it a bit lately strikes me as figure's nerdy sibling. An interesting style to build out of this app but it fits well with your other funky tracks.

    @apapdop: I like that description "slightly more deranged" I kept inching up the different effects throughout the track. Turnado really blows livefx out of water though its a bit processer heavy on my ipad 2

    @oldlibmike: thanks, I now mostly use nanostudio on my iphone during lunch break at work since audiobus is too much for my little iphone 4. I kinda like chipping away at a track in tiny 15 minute intervals.
