This “freestyle” technique was developed with label mate and Detroit neighbor Jeremy Ellis. Both are trained musicians and studio scientists. Performing and creating tracks live allowed Arnold to test run music on the dance floor in front of a crowd. These improvisational moments were the inspiration for the Style and Pattern album. “Most of the music for the album was born out of live performances. These freestyle shows involve creating music from scratch; playing beats on the Akai MPC, looping them and playing keys on my guitar, while constantly looping and building,” explains Arnold. “It allows for true improvisation and I can explore all kinds of rhythms and music,” he adds.ARE Weapons LiveNYC A.R.E. Weapons is one of the most interesting records ever to use disco electrobeats and synth washes for rock'n'roll effect; it's got raps and gang shouts and melodies and supercheap electronics ping-ponging and careening all over the place—I mean, it's one of the most interesting to officially use them for rock'n'roll effect. Disco, of course, has from the start been unofficially using itself for rock'n'roll effect, from Moroder to Flashdance to LeAnn Rimes. And if you don't think there's menace in disco, then you've just never listened to much disco, have you? And hey, A.R.E. Weapons would tell you that if you can't dance in the face of fear, then babe, you just can't danceGe-ologyFemale Fun Records NYC According to Ge-ology Plays Ge-ology's liner notes, Ge-ology's first music group that he was ever involved in (under the name DJ Plainterror) included MC New York, aka Tupac.
