Busy beat

I found a drum break from the record that I found in the 500 yen records section. I cut it up and tapped KORG NANO PAD2 all night long until I find the beat that I like.
I made the melody by using the tone of Stan Getz's saxophone from his album and again I cut it up, and made my original melody.
I also overlaid melody by playing KORG microKEY-37.
Now, we have the melody and the beats, so I played a base along with it and made some phrases.
I combined some phrases and made the structure of the song - verse1, chorus 1, verse2, chorus2.
Finally, I played with AKAI APC40 to make it more interesting.
I'm a UX product manager at Tacchi Studios, the team behind Canvas. In addition to my profession, I'm passionate about making music.
Do you play anywhere?
Matt Griffith Hi Matt, Thank you for the comment!
I used to play at a small bar in Chigasaki with the band, but it was completely different music. (It was folk rock music)
I haven't played this style of music anywhere with PC or APC40.
Do you have any recommend clubs? :)
