MC202 does Squarepusher

Here is the Roland MC-202 playing Theme from Ernest Borgnine by Squarepusher. It is going through my first-gen Alesis Midiverb that I recently cleaned (hence the open face).
Not completely accurate, but not bad for having not heard the track for a year or two.

You're not there yet, but its a good start.

Keep it up and you will nail 'm!

I'd like to know what you mean by "there." Being good at covering techno licks? Covering this one in particular? Why would I "keep it up"? There is no reason to keep practicing copying other peoples sequences, so I have no idea what you mean here.

[Dsil303]

What I meant was: Its almost the right melody, but you've got some notes wrong. If you listen to the track a couple of times you'll nail the whole melody.

It was meant as a positive reaction, but somehow it seems like you see it as "not so positive".

And yes, there is a reason to try copying your favorite music, because it gives you more insight in how tracks are made and why those tunes are good. Most good musicians start of covering known music and grow up to become a good musician themselves.

Awesome! I love this! I have an MC909 and 303, with manuals. Haven't really figured out how to use them yet. Just wanted to tinker with them. I would love to learn to play them properly!

great work man! I enjoyed this, it seemed so abstract the way you were building all the notes together, but then it all kicked off in my face and i chundered. NICEONE.
