Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. For the past few weeks I’ve been watching and reading a lot of tutorials on how to work with various different samplers (Mostly Roland SP family), so now that I am interested enough and have my spare 300€ what should I buy from your experience or knowledge? By storming many sites with used electronics I understood that in my budget there is not much to choose from: Roland SP404 OG/SXA and also I have found a very mint condition SP808Ex, but there is also one samplers that fits in my budget and it is much more modern, I’m talking about Teenage Engineering ep133 KO. So what I get?
Big thanks in advance to whoever reads and responds to this
I want to make something in the style of flying lotus/FlyLo FM, if that information is necessary.

So every time I visit fast food restaurants like McDonald’s, Burger King and etc. and there is one of them dummy and sometimes offbeat jingles or ads that promote some type of new burger I suddenly feel so bad, I almost burst into tears and think of hurting myself. That’s why I rarely go to such places and when I see such an ad somewhere on the internet I straight up close the app and reopen it. I was haunted by the questions: “What is this? why my mind and body acts like that? Where it comes from?” So two days ago I was home alone talking to myself, trying to figure out some things and suddenly I unlocked this memory of me and my brother. I think I was around 11 years old when this happened, I was misbehaving at school and some teacher called my mother so she could talk to me about not being attentive all the time, my mom called my brother who was 26 at that time, I guess. At that day I came home from school and turned the tv on to watch some toons, there was some macdonalds ad promoting a new ice cream with a cringy song, and then out of nowhere my brother bursts into living room and starts beating me so damn hard that I pissed myself, after that he just left me there laying on the carpet, he went to kitchen, took himself something to eat and drove off.

When I unlocked this memory I was so happy and so depressed at the same time. Well, at least now I know. I haven’t spoken on it with any of my siblings and I think I will not, because they won’t take it serious, they will probably say something like: “Come on, so many years passed, why does that bother you?”

Thank you for reading. Everybody, keep your head up.
