Yeah, sadly no accordion here. I already used some Casio VL-tone (white toy keyboard with built in calculator) samples, though. Otherwise the tune's pretty regular.

I'll check for some random sounds, I might have a Shure microphone in some drawer, maybe there's a way to connect the thing to my computer. And Stylophone sounds promising :)

Ocarina solo and rain maker for the win!

Finally finished all my uni stuff properly, so now I'm going to get into the habit of recording some strange things - I might play about with my toilet and glass 'ping' samples again for ya if I can find them.

Gotta find something to occupy my time before the palms get too hairy to do anything with, eh?

Is it ok to write some drum beats as well (in the same tempo of course) or would you prefer to let all the drum sounds come from your own program?

I'm really tempted to put all my loops together and write a whole song with them, but I should really stick to one loop per sample. :D

Yes, yes and yes to all of the above!

ANYTHING goes, so long as it can be referenced back to the original loop. Some new beats would be really cool, as would toilet sounds, pings, pops, honks, squeaks, ocarinas and anything else you can find.

It's all good.

I am so damn busy...any free time I've had has gone to working on the Omega Experiment cd. Considering my summer classes (I start another one tomorrow, making 2), I won't be done with them till August, but then I'll have a whole month of free time. I hope this is still unfinished by then so I can finish what I started.

Major problem, I ended up with ~3:30 tune instead of a handful of loops. Damn you lack of constraints!

No worries about the time dudes. Takes a while for these things to build momentum anyway. Also, I dont have my 'studio' set up yet anyway so nothing will happen at this end for a good few weeks.

I think probably I will not start mixing everything together until the end anyway, so that I have the maximum number of loops at my disposal.

Its gonna be fun! I think it will make a lot of people giggle.

I'm not intending on starting this until I get my 'studio' set up again, which might be ages yet. I've been mixing Lady Gaga cover while sitting on the living room floor and its not comfortable! Anything more complex would hurt my mind.

Glad this is still moving forward! I'm looking forward to picking through all the loops and building something funky. I think it might be entertaining to assemble all the tracks visually without listening to any of them and just see what happens.

Cooool beans.
