ableton clave dance groovy iremcore jazzy latin massive synthy taitocore

The 70s and 80s saw an explosion of amazing funk bands from the Caribbean taking influences from the US, West Africa and their own backyards. I've been listening to that a lot lately, and I thought, what if one of those groups got put in charge of a video game soundtrack?

Instrumentation is all various patches made in Massive, with a few effects provided by Fabfilter Pro-R, Ozone Imager, and Ableton's simple delay. I'm new to this, but I tried to keep to the spirit of chiptune by sticking to the classic waveforms (with a few of the voices being a square-saw blend, especially helpful for mimicking that lovely transistor organ sound) and mostly limiting effects usage to helping the various tracks stand out in the mix better.

I just had someone tell me about BotB last weekend, so I might have gone more ornate with more time here, but sometimes it's good to have an external force to put the kibosh on endless obsessive tweaking.
