    Its been years since I first stumbled upon this video.. 8 to be exact. I gotta say thanks man because it inspired me to purchase a EMX-1 and warp my mind in my own personal dimension of music. This cover still kicks ass!!

    I can't believe I'm saying this...but, I like this version of "I'm Self Employed" more...mainly cause of the variation in beat, the bass and everything in general. If you could make this a full fledged song, that would be amazing!

    Cover jam is a good way to put it.
    You add stuff over time as it progresses which makes it awesome.
    For a jam song, this is choice.
    Awesome job on it, peace.

    @vegeta897  14 років тому +1

    @Ganjacide
    Thank you! I'm dumbfounded by the amount of people saying they enjoy this more than the original. I really put no thought into how to best recreate it; the drum machine pattern was just something I made before I even programmed the synth lines into the EA1, and I randomly decided to use it for this jam. I guess it was all luck!

  • @Anon1696
    @Anon1696 15 років тому

    I liek the original more than this, but this is proably the best cover of it that could be done.
    Great Job!
    I think I enjoy the original version for it's dynamic, flexible, liquid, and natural sound.
    This version is much more consistent.

    You rock dude. I'm making a setup with some gear that I can input notes while its playing. I have other gear but it won't do unless I buy an external sequencer, so I might as well get some more Electribes.

    @TheBOZORUS The ER1 is probably simplest. But keep in mind, it's just a drum machine, so you can't really add any proper melodies or basslines, but you can get very creative with the drum synthesis. The ER1 was my first.

    Agreed, it's just a cover jam, I really wasn't trying to make a better song or make a song at all, I just wanted to play with those synth lines. That's why I was so surprised at how many people liked this more than the actual song...

    I don't know what you mean by 20 patterns of information. This is one 4 bar pattern on each machine.
    It's a for-fun cover jam, not a planned out or faithful remake.

  • @vegeta897
    @vegeta897  12 років тому

    It really depends on what you're looking for. The ER1 is a great beat machine because of its unique drum synthesis. You can use it for all kinds of wacky sounds, beyond just retro sounding drums. The EA1 is a rather simplistic 2 part mono synth, but having a sequencer makes it worthwhile because you can't really find a synth groovebox in its price range, except for some older ones like the MC 303.

  • @vegeta897
    @vegeta897  16 років тому

    Yeah, sequencers are pretty necessary if you've got a lot of keyboard synths and you want to jam! I'll be needing one eventually.

  • @Argiflex
    @Argiflex 14 років тому

    @vegeta897 Ahh, my bad! I just thought that the ESX and EMX were the only solid coloured ones (save for the EM-1). Plus, the synthamasizer database I use is vintagesynth, and they left the MKIIs out of their database!
    So, honest mistake?
