Been revisiting my days of BMX and skating with Bad Religion, NoFX, Rancid, and some other ska stuff.

I don't usually like to listen to ska for leisure, but I will absolutely skank 'till my legs fall off at any ska show that happens to be within an hour's drive. Something about the energy at those shows... I get to see Big D and the Kids Table pretty often since I'm around Boston, and I discovered another great band called PWRUP a while back at a local show. Also on the subject of trombone players who do crowd work, Kill Lincoln is another exceptional band who deserve more listeners.

I live about an hour from Eugene, OR so I see the Cherry Poppin' Daddies regularly.

I've long been listening to Defiance, Ohio but I somehow missed their most recent album. I threw that into rotation last week and have been enjoying it.

Honestly, not much. But I just ordered some Halloween compilation cds and some relaxing sounds cds. It’s gonna be so spooky. But chill around here come September 😂

Bit of a folk/bluegrass kick: John Hartford, Sturgill Simpson, Gillian Welch

I finally put out my EP so I'm working on some new things. I've been listening to this quite a bit:

This is an early, technically Lemmy exclusive, work in progress. If you're curious about the EP:

Are you programming most of this in something like Fruity Loops? The snare work sounds real organic if so

Thassodar@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Yes, I've been using Ableton for all my tracks, learning new tricks along the way.

The drum samples are actually from a French Quarter sound pack; they're Louisiana style brush/jazz drums.

Very cool
