i know when i should stop playing with bits of the track..

i get my loops & sequnece together, then run a femo demo cuts, put them thru my dj mixer & mix a similair record over the top to make sure its got it in every range...

bit more fiddling in Wave Lab & the track is done...

i NEVER spend more than 16 hours on one track. u just lose that wee spark that got the whole thing running..

and i learn another lil bit every time i turn my shit on, si i believe its best to move forward & not get stale with the same loop..

but, its all subjective, so it horses for courses yet again
