What seems to be the problem?
Death.
Death? Well I'm afraid that's a little out of my jurisdiction.
I want more life, fucker.

Well that's the sample that drives the heart of this track. I've been a little quiet of late, my mid-semester break has not been as productive as I would have liked - I've got lots of bits and pieces of half-completed tracks but nothing fully developed yet. In the meantime I went to L.A. where I got the incredible Akai APC-40 Ableton controller for a fantastic price at Guitar Centre in Hollywood (much cheaper than possible in Australia). Anyway with this bit of kit I've been jamming away at those little segments and this track is the first result, with a great simple driving synth line. I've had a bunch of the Bladerunner samples lying around and wanting to do something with them for a little while. I figured the less, the better, and the result is "Fucker". The string synth figure is also based on the Vangelis soundtrack.

There's another track - a bit more of an APC-40 jam session than this one - I might also upload later tonight
