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 :-)

Dark synth pop moody jam. I don’t often listen to music these days but the last couple of days I’ve listened to a lot of synth stuff and really enjoyed it, this is something of an attempt at a synthesis of that input! I deliberately tried to make the bass filter fuzzy and drifty, enough PWM and discordant blend to get that classic vintage vibe. I wish I had a few more modulation sources but that’s part of the fun sometimes - improvising!
