Episode Description:
On Episode 2, the first installment of the new and improved ’10 Minutes to Make a Loop’, we give the new format and production a whirl. After trying to defy the Tempo Gods and evade a slow jam, Oliver gets started with a simple Rhodes part in F# Major at 77 BPM. A few technical difficulties emerge with his foot pedal that challenge him to an impromptu river dancing contest, but eventually a drum part is laid down. The jam comes alive once he finds a massive bass synth part which then causes a quick adjustment of the previous layers. It all ends with some simple Rhodes noodles over the top, delicious! It would’ve been nice to have found the bass synth sound sooner and to have gotten a few more layers added, particularly to fill some of the frequencies that were filtered out of the drums - but all in all it was fun to get the series off to a proper start.
