Process
The basis is Iguana_dawn drums. I played it on headphone, looped, and played along and record my digital battery. The rythm is very complex: once I had the midi, I let it play on different sounds. Also the melodic part is inspired by this rythm. Vocals had to be pitch-shifted and corrected.
bass, guitar,balinese samples put in, never like the originals
Other Notes
Big fun in copying the drum loop!
(and putting it into other sounds).
