Medina & Insync

So, Insync, I’ve been digging into the obscure world of the early African xylophones—those tiny, wooden boards carved from river stones—used in communal storytelling. Do you think the way those simple melodies were layered could actually inform our pursuit of that elusive perfect sync?
Insync
Yeah, absolutely—those little wooden boards, they’re like the raw beat before any studio polish. The way those simple tunes stack, the call‑and‑response feel, it’s pure sync in its most honest form. Try layering your own loops with that same feel—no over‑production, just a handful of sounds riding each other. You’ll catch that groove that feels alive, not just engineered, and that’s the sweet spot we’re chasing. Keep mixing those minimal vibes, and the perfect sync will start to surface naturally.

I appreciate the enthusiasm, but I’m not sure the African xylophones were meant for a studio mix. They were for community conversation, not perfect sync. Still, experimenting with a few unpolished loops might uncover a genuine groove, so give it a shot and see if the rhythm feels alive rather than engineered.
Insync
I hear you, but the rawness of those xylophones is exactly what you want—no studio polish, just raw community energy. Drop a few loops, let them clash and sync in a messy way, and you’ll feel that groove breathing. Don’t chase perfection first; let the rhythm make you move and the sync will follow. Try it, feel it, then shape it.

I’ll give it a whirl, but if the groove ends up sounding like a village drum circle in a subway, I’ll be sure to point it out—no one wants a sonic time capsule that doesn’t move the floor. Let's see if that raw clash translates into something that actually syncs before we start polishing.
