An absolutely bonkers sample library collection thatās been used by Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails, notably on The Downward Spiral album, for the Silent Hill OSTās and even in Mario 64, and some Zelda games; yeah, wild. Featuring, and I quote āsounds of carnageā ācosmic warpageā and āsurprise chainsawsā - this iconic sample library is still available to purchase on rarefactionās actual website (www.rarefaction.com) if youāre a music producer looking to utilize it. Theres a listening link at the top to check it out. I like to just throw this on when Iām painting sometimes, to set the mood and channel some chaos.
been my ride or die pocket synth for going on 10 years. really versatile and durable, you can get some good deals on used ones too now that the OP Field is out. has a very digital sound to it but iāve used it in plenty of songs and it sounds great in the mix. played live with it for a bit too when I was doing shows.
was also gifted the EP-133 (K.O. II) for christmas and liking it so far, havenāt gotten too into the sampling functionality but been enjoying the workflow and the built in sounds are nice. not sure if that oneās still on back order but itās a very reasonable price point for TE.
yes, you should help your elderly coworker move over the weekend. friend gives you a prompt for a funny photo to make in photoshop? do it. getting invited to work as a mascot at a convention, by the worst person you know? fuck it we ball. connect with others and open your heart to doing things spontaneously.
go 2 a state park near you and just document (photograph, sketch, etc) interesting textures that you come across. moss is an easy one. think of it as the visual equivalent to field recordings. start appreciating minor details š¤š
