My first instinct when hearing it would have been a pattern gate, but there's a brief clip of the carefully stacked midi and the tight patch; which honestly grants way more control. Its a slick accompaniment and is delightful and percussive

Sounds great, did you make that patch in Pigments?

Related but unrelated: I contributed to a compilation called "dorkqs" celebrating the 20 year anniversary of Drukqs, by Aphex Twin. Thanks for the reminder that in some circles it could actually be called "grunts".

Can we get a version of this with more high-flying vibes and less surprise dogp?

We're all getting old. Living mummies. All of us. Decaying plumes of dust, cavorting about; our withered, pruned hands pressing play on our obsolete ipods one more time, to listen to the breakbeats of days long past

This game is underrated. I feel like a lot of reviewers rightfully complained about the microtransactions, but in doing so overlooked the fact that the actual game was fantastic. I feel like it should be re-examined now that the dust has settled

I'm working on a new track for this right now, I can't wait for you to hear it!

I had to make it through an entire independent clause before I realized you meant a person and not a programming language 😄. I was even momentarily impressed with a modern framework's dedication to extreme legacy support.

I was told by my kid (who also refuses hot dogs) that hot dogs taste too 'hot-doggy' and honestly I kind of get that. That's a fair point.
