Iāve always wondered about your username. I canāt think of another Dalai except the Dalai Lama.
Thatās the one. DL is the root for LDā¦
Either lying as the wise Buddha, or as a Chinese official stating the holy man is not telling the truth. Down is the new upā¦ Go figure 
I could go for days, but basically this nickname was a blend of my favorite artists in 2010.
Flying Lotus + Gonjasufi ā Flying Sufi ā Lying Dalai
I am not a religious person, Iāve just always enjoyed Dalai Lama speeches.

I got this infectious groove, I record a quick jam, should definitely work on this further (make it shorter for instance) but canāt find the timeā¦
Still, it gets stuck in my head. I really like it.
Drove to Nantes to sell my Microgranny // met someone great.
Brought some toys with me to properly test the device in a jam session 
Here is a pure ambient track.
Dedicated to my friend Francis. And everyone who embraces Change.

Hehe, thx dear. Yep, itā been a long timeā¦
For some reason, playing music with my friends from Paula Berthe had been highly sufficient during my 6-months long job-free break.
I have been playing in Nature, or staring at the sea, or in my bed, or at friendsā but recording was not necessary.
And the day I have a new job, I feel the huge appeal from my machines, they shout āPLAY AND RECORD MEā andā¦ here is the fourth take

Itās been ages since I last took part to an Operator-1 battle !
Here is my entry for Batte #57 āThis old synth you never useā.
Shruthi-1 it was, in my case.
With Novation 61SL mkIII as the brain, makes it easier without having to dig in the menus 
Drums are handled by the Rytm and OP-1.
And there are some little bits of Richard Devineās Sort\Lave album, which is full of interesting little sounds.
As a side note : itās the first time I program that many trig conditioned ghost notes on the Rytm (mainly for the snare but also on other percussions), and I was really happy with the result, it feels way more organic than my previous beats

50th collective composition challenge on Audiofanzine.
I teamed with Jo, and got back to guitar (and a bit of AR and DT) for this track.

Holy crap good guitar chops bro. I might sample that 
.
Overall I like the garage rock sound to it. Vocals sound good too. Bring it to the front a little more.
Ć +
Vocals are Joās, I canāt sing that high unfortunately 
And he did the real drums, heavy guitar, bass, as well as a lot of arranging and mixing 
Itās true that voices could have been a bit more present, I find it really hard to place them right.
But they were not THAT significant to me, I mean itās not like Bowie is singing how he sold his soulā¦
Anyway, this track was hard to craft, I got quite some trouble lately and it needed dedication to come up with something decent!
The kind of track that will bring me back a lot of memories

Ambient that got hit by a beat and mutates in dnb.
My mind lately 
I made this track for ŃŠøŃŃŠµŠ¼Š° | system various artists compilation SYS VA 004.
But because life can be very stupid it didnāt make it to the album (very worth a listen, if youāre into experimental/noise)
