113 - INSPIRATION technique        

From: Bob Azevedo
Email: BobAzevedo@aol.com
Date: 22-Jun-99


After configuring a drum loop or several drum loops, play them a couple times and turn on some bath water or if you have a spa that works too. Stick your head into the water (plug your ears first and don't forget to keep your mouth outta the water). Listen closely to the drum loop and then listen to the sound of the jets. Sometimes you can think up a rhythm when in the bath or shower or whatever.

Then when you're done go back to the drum loop and firgure out some synth or basslines that went along with the beat. I tried this a couple times and it turned out pretty well.
