Way back in 1998 I used to use an mpc 2000 to do all my music production on. I’ve decided to revisit my musical production roots (with a few updates of course).
I find that with all the music making technology out there I’m spending more time getting caught up in the “what new midi controller is coming out next?” and “which new plug-in should I download?” rather than actually spending quality time pumping out good tunes.
I’ve decided to stick with a few key hardware pieces. An Akai MPC 1000 and a MicroKORG. I know it more limiting than the infinite possibilities that a program like Ableton Live offers. However I feel what I need now is boundaries. This is my late resolution for the new year.
I’m really excited and looking forward to what new creative possibilites are waiting to be discovered.
