You think much like me I can hear. I'm old school when it comes to production, I like to record and tweak everything live (though it takes layer recordings at times obviously) and like to program with step sequencing & pattern based writing just like how everything started. I'm not into drawing lines in Cubase to make music, I find its killing my inspiration and ideas pretty quick for example.
As my mate MITA says, TMMR is a good label and combines a bit of everything, theres some real solid releases on there.
The Overfiend; always great wisdom coming from you.
