The development was so unexpected, but rad! and great use of the metal gear sample, I am happy to hear that one get put to good use!
Oh boy, what a sample haul!
This track has got two parts: the first is more classic hip-hop and new jack influences, maybe something you'd hear in Philly from DJ Jazzy Jeff. I was perfectly happy to build that idea, but *then*, as if decreed by a power beyond my understanding, a Warren G song popped up on my shuffle, so I was inspired to add a Long Beach, G-Funk bit with those lovely keys and, of course, that lovely sample of Solid Snake teaching us the important things in life.
The whole thing is a bit disjointed unfortunately due to time constraints, but the approximate idea is all there. My strengths re: Renoise is using the native plugins more than the effect commands. Something definitely for me to improve upon in the future.
MP3 Update on 12/15: the render was the old one that had a random dropout before transitioning into the second section from some careless automation on my part; the core Renoise file hasn't changed.
