Orchestra Session 21 June 2017

We were in the grips of a heatwave and for some sweet reason only four of us turned up to play. There weren't enough musicians to play everything all at once, so we set up the piano and a simple drum kit and wandered from one instrument to another. I have to admit, I like sparse instrumentation. I pushed for motorik beats and discovered they're difficult to maintain, even with the luxury of setting the kit up left-handed for a change. Everyone except Marcus had a bash on the drums. Everyone except me had a bash on keyboards. The tracks turned out much shorter than normal, hence we knocked out twelve ...
