Volca Drum & Bass Jam by Abel (2019-06-30)

I wasn't planning on recording anything, but then this started to take shape and I liked it. I typically don't listen to this type of music a lot, but it was definitely fun to make.

New pedal: the Bananana Mandala (say that very fast a bunch of times, interesting 7/8th rhythm), a tiny glitch box from a tiny Japanese company. It's quite fun, but I realized I shouldn't have bought it when the Chase Bliss MOOD was announced, haha. Anyway, I'll definitely use it more in future jams, it adds a nice little extra layer.
