Sorry, but I sent the sax-player home.

[JEL]

i sent the saxplayer home as well but then i made him come back to play the chorus...

lol, poor guy, not knowing if he's bought or sold

did you use bitcrushing? for the snare i felt putting it in phase helped me getting it to sound more solid.

No I did not try bit-crushing. Trying that did not even cross my mind.
Thanks for the idea
