Volca FM & LinnDrum Samples (Korg ES2) - Tascam 688 tape recording // 80s Cassette Adventures #4

The soundtrack to a stealth-assault on a chemical weapons facility in 1989 📼. linktr.ee/slee... ✍️ I packed my Korg Electribe 2 with LinnDrum & TR-505 samples, as well as some CMI fairlight samples for melodies. MIDI Sync'd with a Volca FM's arpeggiated bass line for extra 80s-ness. All recorded to tape.
Everything was created on the Korg Electribe 2 (the brain) the Korg Volca FM (the punch) & the WEM Copicat tape echo (the magic sauce).
Recorded to tracks 1, 2, 3 & 6 on my Tascam 688 Portastudio (MIDISTUDIO)/ cassette recorder, as follows:
Track 1 - Drums (left output of the Korg ES2)
Track 2 - Melodies using CMI Fairlight samples
Track 3 - Volca FM bassline
Track 4 - N/A
Track 5 - N/A
Track 6 - Tape echo output (Korg ES2's mono output ran through the WEM Copicat tape echo).
Track 7 - N/A
Track 8 - N/A

Hey man, I removed that guy’s comment. I knew what you meant, don’t worry!!

This sounds like a level of a gameboy game. Like Wario World.

[@SleepingOrchard]

Haha, I can hear that. As long as the mission involves a bit of stealth to complete, then I achieved what I wanted.

Nice work.
