FSOL were quite the sampling geniuses in their day. Accelerator is one of my all time favourite albums that I've rinsed to death over the years and had no idea how sample heavy it was until i watched a breakdown video on it. What a broad choice of samples too. I feel blessed to have had the 90s as my glory years.

I'm in a band with Jack from Meat Beat Manifesto and he told me that the Radio Babylon bassline was done with a piece of toast hanging out of his mouth. He had just made some toast but was struck by inspiration so picked up the bass and recorded it straight away, food be damned. Awesome video again. I love FSOL more than I can say and this track is an absolute stonking masterpiece. So many good memories of hearing it blasting on huge sound systems while raving til dawn. (and beyond) You did an admirable job of de/reconstructing it. Makes you appreciate the original even more.

This took me back, and is really quite impressive. I had an R-8 for a few years. I'm sure it was a great piece of kit - I just don't have an ounce of rhythmn programming skill in my being, so it was basically an expensive paperweight. I sold the R-8 and bought another drum machine (although I can't remember what it was called, or who manufactured it). Evetually, I stopped buying hardware drum machines. Far less expensive to fail upwards with software.
