Basement Noise Track

Last night Neal Beard and his Machines made a lot of noise in a basement using circuit bent keyboards and homemade oscillators.

You can hear a 5 minute excerpt here...

LSDJ MC2





Neal Beard's first foray into the world of chiptunes! Having had a color gameboy hanging around since the late nineties, I decided to put it to use...

I bought a pre-flashed LSDJ cart from the excellent DJ Transformer website/shop, and because all my machines are MIDI integrated their DIY LSDJMC2 kit .

I also Pro-sound modded the gameboy for better sound.

A first track called 'The Gameboy Bajan Bee Song' here.
Drums are from a circuit bent DD10, additional keyboard from a Casio VL1.
