What’s your… process I guess. Or plan. Not sure of how to phrase it.
I have my first live all Elektron set coming up, scary as I have had the DT for two weeks and the OT I bought 30 mins ago.
My brief is as much live tweaking as I can, people will be close and they don’t want me to hit play and go away. The style is house with old school hip hop mixed in. Think lots of old samples and mangling.
At some point I want, I mean I’ve just decided I want to try this, to change up the BPM from 120 ish to 160 ish. It allows me to go a bit more nuts. In my head I’m thinking of, over several minutes, introducing the new BPM with some mangling of the samples, so the drums introduce more complexity, and then in comes the new pattern at the new BPM.
Maybe this is in the wrong place, as I think I’m interested how you’d all do that on the DT or OT, or the pair combined. Thinking the OT can loop the last DT pattern while I then change pattern on the DT and slowly introduce it.
Thoughts?
