So this happened last night,

I was just playing around with a chopped up droning synth sound, which wound up becoming to the drone in Track 1, and as I built up the chords around it, I liked it, so I decided to create a simple, funny little beat and voila. Here we are. The beginning of the song is just the same progression that drones on C in the background for the whole track, but with the transposition modulation automated to drop down continuously from two octaves up.

Listen to Shorties here.

Track 2 provides the chords,

which consist of 3 sets of 4 bars, before repeating. We begin on Cmaj7, F (with a Bb sus4 that happens temporarily), then Ebmaj7, and Ab. The second time, it's mostly the same, but we have a Csus2 instead of Cmaj7, and Dmin instead of Ebmaj7. Finally, the third time around, we have Amin, Fmin, Emin, and G. Track 3 is the synth bass, Tracks 4 and 5 the drums (track 4 a heavily bitcrushed hihat/shaker for our hihats/snare, track 5 the kicks), and finally, Track 6, another synth layer, which adds a rhythmic, distorted sound in the background.
