Sort of had a secret project going on in my downtime over the last few months. I was wanting to remix 80s songs. I was going for that old midi sound with a heavy dance beat. So I ended up using an 808 for the drum tracks and trying my best to do everything else in a not so cheese midi sound. I can’t read music and punching out this shit on keyboard 5 notes at a time was a pain. I also can’t play songs on keyboard straight thru. So it was a lot of 5 notes here then layer a chord over it and rinse and repeat. They are not in the final mix down stage. Some levels need tweaking and some more stereo separate would help. PC or Notebook speakers are not going to do these justice so a sub woofer or some bass capable speakers will be needed. I mentioned the 808 drum tracks right.

Tell Me Why I Hate Blue Mondays (not another remix remix)

I should also explain the title “I Hate Blue Mondays” is a a nod to the Boomtown Rats “I hate Mondays and the fact that Blue Monday has been covered and remixed to death
