Hi, I recently bought an used Thinkpad and Renoise to go with it as a new mobile music platform (previously I had GP2X & Little Piggy Tracker)
The combination is pretty sweet, here’s the two first fresh fruits from tha garden:

The first track is a bit more experimental, it’s using samples I have made of instruments I’ve built. The stringed instrument is a zither strung with guitar overwinding wire, I recall it was nickel probably. Then there’s struck glass, and some stuff I took with a contact microphone and bits & pieces of the same overwinding wire… Then there’s also snippets from bowed glass and transverse pipes made from recycled copper pipe…
The second track is pretty straight forward oldschool goa, you’re free to spot the influences
All comments are welcome.
I didn’t post the files since I use a lot of VSTs, and Shortcircuit especially is very hard to use cross-computerwise
Oh, and pix of the instrumets can be seen here:
