Let's hang and I'll show you how you could recreate something like Aphex's olde 1989 bedroom hardware setup entirely in software - running his actual Atari ST sequencer (Tiger Cub, which I'll show you how to use!), and the 'most hardware software' - Reason. This is not-so-secretly also a video about the importance of limitations, and pre-selecting our sound palette to focus on writing better tunes with less in them. LINKS BELOW!!
Mega thanks for Reason Studios for sponsoring a vid & giving me an excuse to do this (they let me make what I wanted to make!).
