* Meek Ballad
Follow me back to the early 80s. This could be the next great thing...
The slowly evolving groove adds a few more programmed hits on ev-
ery level, giving you a fair chance to find just the desired complexity.
The style was created by adding each instrument one by one, just as it
was in the childhood of these legendary "rhythm composers". The
meek shall inherit the earth. NE
* Axis Y
Back in the 80s, people had ugly hair cuts, pink jackets and played on
hexagonal drums. Beware, because some of that might return any
day! This style prepares you for at least the musical revival. Put on
your dancing shoes and get into the groove. NE
1982 Slick
This style is a 16th note based beat, inspired by the sessions re-
corded in L.A. around 1980, with master drummers like Jeff Porcaro
and John Robinson. Actually, the beat itself isn't very innovative, but
it's too representative for this great genre to leave it out. A slow tempo
is a must for this style. Favorite tempo range is 73-88 bpm. FvW
1983 Breakbeat
Wirebird shouted "HEEEELP" from deep down in "the Pixelmine",
when he created that fabulous front panel. I said "With what?". "With
breakbeats!", he shouted from below. "You mean dirty, groovy, kind of
playing-too-much à la Chemical Brothers?". "Yepp!". "Yo, I'll do it!!", I
replied. And while you're at it, dear user, why don't you run the whole
thing through some nice distortion. JS
