So I'm working on this soundtrack for Rez's S4D game. I figured I would post some pictures and info about the actual instruments I am using. You know, if anyone is interested.

This is my Techniques 1200 and Numark mixer. If anyone is interested in scratching, a 1200 is a MUST. There's a reason it's the gold standard.

This is a shitty little Casio toy piano. The cool thing about it is its sampling capability. You can record a short sample and then slow it down or speed it up depending on what key you press. Perfect for making ZOMBIE NOISES.

This is my drum set. It's about as shitty as the quality of the picture I took of it. BUT, with proper EQing and mixing, it sounds LESS shitty.

This is the main keyboard I am using for this soundtrack. The Roland JX-3P. This thing is full of vintage 80s cheese, but it's fully customizable through the use of the most maddening interface ever created. No knobs. I can't imagine why someone thought this was a good idea.

And here's the brain behind it all. The MPC-4000. Simply put: this is the best sampler AND sequencer ever created. This is what makes all my sloppy, shitty sounds come together and make sweet love. This machine actually makes me sound competent.

So there it is. I would post some preview tracks, but that would spoil the surprise. So I hope you liked looking at these shitty pictures instead. If you didn't, then too bad.
