My 2 year old triggering the TD-6 drum machine, my 4 year old on Volca Keys and me bashing away on a Korg Monologue. All day the little one has been saying “I’m Sky Mice!” and no idea what she means but now it’s our band name :-)

Clipping all over the place! That’s a shame. My little Behringer UB202 audio interface doesn’t have heaps of headroom, so it’s quite hard to get a lot of level without clipping, but this is the worst I’ve ever known it on a recording I’ve done. It’s because I had a lot going on - analog beats from the Behringer RD-9 (909 clone) and the TD-3 (TB-303 clone) which is pretty raunchy with the accent/resonance. Some compression would have helped here!
Ah well, it was a fun jam.
