Transistor Sandwich

Tinsel Time

Here’s a little something for the holidays, a relaxed winter holidays-styled tune of orchestral instruments atop a percolating percussion loop with hints of the traditional “Jingle Bells” melody.

Christmas Cookies

Here’s a Christmassy tune perfect for your holiday video projects. A moderate tempo modern rhythm under sparkling bell synths and sleigh bells, occasionally sprinkled with twinkling piano and steam pops.

In The Now

Here’s a nice laid-back track incorporating some loops from Cymatics, featuring melodies performed on the Korg i3 and VK-1 Viking Synth VST.

Send the Transmission

Here’s an upbeat, bass-boomin’ drum-thumpin’ dancy tune that includes some very cool loops from Looperman artists Rasputin and LouiveMane.

Bwolaloolaloo

Here’s an uptempo track featuring a solid, pumpin’ drum loop by Looperman contributor “axeleon”, later perked up with some effected hi-hats courtesy of Looperman contributor “Krolbeats”. All wrapped in a percolating arp punctuated by a long-tail reverb’d pop sound.

A Hundred and One

This song was built on the Yamaha TX81Z’s most identifiable sound, the Lately Bass. A steady breakbeat splashed with some Yamaha TG33 bell strings and a little sprinkling of piano.

No Way Out

Here’s a tune that takes a lot of twists and turns. Just when you think you’ve figured out the pattern, it throws you a curve and you land right back where you started. It’s the musical equivalent of the Windows pipes screensaver.

Return of the Arp

This song grew out of a couple of loops from Looperman.com after a search for “beatbox” loops. The actual beatbox ended up in the background, but an arpeggiator of bells came up in that search too, and it made the song.

What’s My Name?

This tune started off with some playtime using the Podolski VST plugin on a patch called “Hard Rez Rave”, a lovely arpeggiated sound. For the rhythm section, we have a beatbox-style loop from Looperman user ‘attackyak’ supported by a 3-layer bass.
