Here's the basic Prophet 08 loop around which I'm building the song :
Mercenaries-groove1.mp3
It's a single patch, which shows how you can program little sequences within the Prophet to create simple, funky and analog grooves.
Here's another groove from the song : Mercenaries-groove2.mp3
This has the same Prophet 08 loop, plus an Oberheim DMX beat and a sequenced Moog bass (Electribe EMX) juxtaposed with a single acoustic guitar line.
The guitar is processed through this hardware valve compressor (worst design ever?) :
I'm overdriving the input gain to create this mean bass guitar line.
And finally : Mercenaries-groove3.mp3
What you hear now is the same overdriven/overcompressed guitar hitting the same chord over and over, Velvet Underground-style, and a string sound courtesy of my Gforce Virtual String Machine plugin :
The basic foundations of the track are in place, I'll be recording the vocals soon and post the completed song.
