This may sound bizarre... but I actually sit down and draw the structure of the track down on paper.



I draw like a time line of beats (i.e shows marks of 32, 64 etc...) so I can plan where I want breakdowns to occur, build ups, hi-hats etc...



It helps me keep focused on the ration of how it sounds in my brain to how it is on the computer!



I will scan one in and e-mail it to anyone who wants to have a look. May sound rediculous to some of you but it helps me anyhow.




Nothing more... Nothing Less...
