... Does anyone out there know/have any idea what sort of equipment Global
... Communication uses to craft their work (computer, software, synths, etc...)
... For that matter, how about Black Dog? Seefeel?
most of the kit is in Mark Pritchard's Nans garage down in Somerset...
alot of different bits of kit now... 6 fancy effects... 4 samplers or so -
akai's, casio's etc... plus a host of different digital and analogue keyboards
(sometimes they borrow keyboards and get the best sounds out of them - perhaps
only using them for 1 track...).
most rhythms are sampled down... although they do have and make use of drum
machines sometimes.
they still often use a non-computer based sequencer... despite having an
atari... but their system works well - which is all that matters.
recently they have been making more and more use of acoustic instruments - even
local buskers have played at some of their PA's... they like to involve people
when they can you see...
