    Hey Alex....twilight zone,man this is very cool material...very reminiscent of a free form oscillating instrument in Native Instruments Reaktor5 (Metaphysical Function)but so much better because your playing it in real time,every time I listen to your music I feel some presence of Joe Zawinul,not in his corporeal form but more in his method,you use the synthesizer as a vehicle for space travel...next time you do something similar(if you have the inclination that is)send me the track and I'll put some acoustic bass on it if that's agreeable with you.....Invariably keyboard players always turn out to be the best composers and your no exception,it's like you have the universe in your hands....superb work! cheers Dave

    hello Dave.

    thank you so much for listening to my music and all kind words! I was thinking a lot of creating something new and sending you some materials but still I will probably need more time with all this. I am busy (and struggling) with real life currently (I will try to explain it more precisely soon) and there is only a little space/energy for practising keyboard playing that is available. Opening the daw and fooling around there is always much easier than serious practising, needless to say. Over last weeks I was working on the transcription of one Keith Jarrett's piano piece from the 'Koln Concert' and want to record it on my old upright piano. This is very ambitious project haha.

    Now, right at this moment it is a rainy Sunday early morning of very hot summer and I have some free time for working out the piano today, maybe I will message you at the end of a day when something interesting will come up!
    Also soon or later I will make my version of the 'Pelican Feet' project but I need more time to get into funk playing. That's the challenge.

    Thanks again for pointing Joe Zawinul! I discovered some of his older recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xufea3dGCjo and this is an excellent stuff to learn from. I really want to develop some stylistic bebop elements and acquire more licks. Bebop is always the basic and probably most important foundation. I will try to work transcribing and internalizing some of the patterns from that video sometime.

    'Hot Coffe' was played on Roland JunoDi - I was inspired and finnaly bought better hardware synthesizer. Maybe I will be getting even more of the professional hardware equipment in the near future. I will write you if so! There are some classic synth sounds but also fine electric pianos presets there. I am happy because I do not need plugins to create. I manipulated a lot simply with cutoff and resonance knobs when playing but I can't open the external editor software to check out the actual internal settings. The reso knob was probably assigned to change some other parameters of the sound which make that preset quite complex and interesting when performed.

    Thank you again for the nice words. I really appreciate that. I do not know if I really deserve the comparision with such amazing players but anyway I will try to work more intense and keep up with! Thank you for a great inspiration!

    All the best to you, Alex

    Super amazingly cool piece you've done here! Especially good since you played the synth part live, which is not always easy. As far as instrumental fusion goes, this sort of thing always gets me (in a good way). It is a good one to listen to today, as I just finished my regular struggle with my newest espresso machine... half the time, the steam comes out from around the bin for the ground instead of making a decent double. Frustrating to say the least. I am always more stressed when my coffee doesn't turn out right. Anyway, the synth work, and the drums are both tasty. This has just the right balance of chillness and tension. Great mild processing as well. Total fave!

    Thank you so much! I really enjoyed reading your reply to my 'spiritual' comment on your track.

    I whish I would post much more informative stuff on other's lm music sometime instead of giving apparently 'provocative' usual every-day comments. I am struggling with my body limitations a lot almost all the time now- the brain/mind is not really a big problem: noticing thoughts and observing them falling into space for a few seconds is enough.
    I can see the similarities with your coffee machine operations haha because I am struggling with all my hardware synths as well in the same manner haha. Roland Juno Di has some really cool software sound editor but I can't use it on Windows7 for some reason. So just presets so far.
    There's a lot of green and plants around here - how are the plants you mentioned earlier grow btw? I have only 3 plants of that sort this year to take care of (not sure we talk of the same plants haha). Just an experimental trial cultivation of mine this year hahaha.

    Thank you a lot for the fave! So glad you enjoyed my work!
    At some point of the future I will add male vocals to this one.

    All the best to you, Alex

    Hey Alex

    Nice feel about this piece, don't really know why but it just grabs you, making you want to listen to the piece, love the space you have left in the track mate...No complaints at all, just respect for pulling this type of track off so well.. Everything from this end sounds spot on...Fav...Peace n Respect....Mosaic...magical work....

    Hey Mosaic!

    Thanks a lot for your nice words. I probably have missed a few of your latest productions (but I will listen to them soon!).

    I am happy you liked the space on the track - I always try to keep some amount of air and usually my mixes are quite different from the other stuff posted here (also regarding to instrumentation).

    This piece is simply the result of playing with new synth Roland Juno Di. I am still looking forward to create more music like this (but simply lack of time). Maybe later this summer...

    There's a place for vocals/spoken words even (I will add them soon).

    Thank you again for kind review and adding this one to your favourites. It is appreciated.

    All the best to you, Alex

    Hello Alex (again) :)

    could you send me this track?

    I think i found a cool concept for some -vocal art- for it
    but it is not easy to produce without .... (and if i would do, then you have 150 plays only from me) :)

    enjoy the weather and stay tuned

    Just connected the ending of this as totally Ummagumma.
    Still sounds wonderful ... this not Ummagumma though Granchester Meadows was my favourite chillout track for many misspent years ... think I'll go visit Youtube before bed.

    promenade2239
    Reply by promenade2239

    Thanks again for some nice inspiration. I was never a huge fan of PinkFloyd but some of my productions were compared to music from 70's as I am using a lot of vintage electric piano (I do not have a real one though) and old styled syntesizers (again: just plugins).

    I just played some single pieces from Ummagumma but I will listen to the entire album today later for sure. Thanks again for pointing this,

    Best to you, Alex

    This is an enjoyable track here. I see you implanted a lot of jazz elements into this track. It's definitely an interesting listen and makes my mind wonder off. It would be interesting to know what your original intentions for this track was.

    Regardless of that, I have to say I really enjoyed this one and will be on the look out for more like this from you!

    Great job sir!

    promenade2239
    Reply by promenade2239

    thanks Modnex.

    so basically my very intention was only to make a new track. My previous looperman one was kind of electro-styled (with JoeCramer's vocals) so I decided to go even further with the exploration of my new hardware synth this time. This track was made entirely (except drums) using only one sound source (Roland Juno Di) but I started with very simple drumming and tried many different synth presets. The basic idea was: 120 bpm and the key of F (no chord changes). It was recorded from the keyboard in a real time but of course with a lot of placing/replacing of all recorded single elements inside the composition afterwards (but the main synth lead was played in a real time without any placing/replacing manipulations). At some point I replaced simple drums by some excellent EZdrummer jazz performances (which is probably the only 'jazz' element here).
    So this is the process. There's no need to quantize notes anymore (I did that a lot when using plugins for piano or electric piano). There's no even MIDI in there (me happy yay! haha)

    thanks a lot for listening and nice comments,
    best, alex

    Tasty stuff going on here...
    Not a big synth fan but you've made it sound interesting, the drums
    lock everything together....
    Well done...

    Peace...TG.

    promenade2239
    Reply by promenade2239

    thank you soundhound.

    drums are EZdrummer jazz performances, all the rest was played on Roland Juno Di. There's no virtual synths needed anymore (only some plugins for effects) so I can create much longer tracks now and work easier without any high CPU usage problems.
    This one is quite simple played but with lot of sound-itself manipulations (mainly cutoff/reso).

    Thanks again for checking this one out and some nice comments. As always it is much appreciated.

    Hello Alex

    Wow - cool one.

    First i read some comments. Then i followed the link silverman posted. Then i came back and listen. And you had to do some very special, after the listen to this extremly cool Ken Nordine.

    AND - You done it.

    This is very experimental and i mostly enjoy things like that, if they not tooooooooo jazzy.

    Maybe i should try to do some words in this Ken Nordine style for you :) ........

    the outro is very special.

    stay tuned
    joe

    promenade2239
    Reply by promenade2239

    thank you Joe!

    firstly I am really happy that you liked this one. That only thing which makes it so jazzy is drumming. I used EZdrummer jazz performance but of course the whole thing will sound very different with other drums. The outro thing is already present throughout the track as a background - I only removed the drumming and main synth lead.

    Ken Nordine is very cool indeed and silverman's point was very inspiring (but quite unexpected). I didn't realize this weird synth jam will open new possibilities.

    I am open-minded to whatever will come up on the spoken word area and am looking forward to collaborate again!

    Thank you so much for very nice words!

    Best to you, Alex

    Hey its a nice groove but I think you should take that synth out of the beginning that goes on throughout the mix, it's way too harsh for my ears

    promenade2239
    Reply by promenade2239

    thanks for listening and leaving some interesting comment. man this is some real synth madness in here, it's entirely recorded in a real time. how you can say I should take off that synth, it makes entire piece. maybe you simply do not like my playing. that's ok. it's actually more playing with cutoff and resonance filters than the actual playing. also mix is not loud at all. I understand this on is not really even close to so called mainstream.
    but thanks again!

    nice day to you, alex

    ok. thanks silverman.

    I spent some moments this morning listening to Ken Nordine's World Jazz. never heard of him before. Thanks for the links and some nice inspiration.
    About 5 years ago I met a danish guy and we managed to create some amount of music even (he was singer/songwriter). He pointed Dan Turell (danish writer) and this song as an inspiration https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77jiPMXR3Aw but we never really finished our spoken word project. Anyway Ken Nordine sounds way better than this... thanks again!

    Weird whacky and wonderful!!!
    Absolutely love it.
    Instantly it reminded me of a guy called Ken Nordine who sounds nothing like this whatsoever but something about the mood the space the aroma took me straight to the guy..
    If you haven't heard of him he does spoken word jazz heres his Wiki ...
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ken_Nordine
    and of course you can type his name into youtube.
    Great piece you've done there and such a wonderful change from the norm.

Description : A fat groove journey incorporating hip hop, jazz, rock and more. Chilled out and rocking, with some big riffs and basslines. The main instruments are saxophone, piano and cello plus some resonator guitar and banjo. Sax is the only instrument not played by me as the parts here were contributed a few years ago by a guy I know. Anything that sounds like distorted guitar is actually distorted cello. Loads of that, including solos, in the second half. No electric guitar or bass guitar. Not much synth work but there are two synth basses and an organ. Otherwise, it's quite an acoustic "played instruments" kind of sound. Lots of drums, including loops, multiple programmed acoustic kits and drum hits. I know Radiohead have an excellent song called Everything In Its Right Place but I still like my title and there's a story behind it (nothing to do with music). Interesting feedback appreciated. Do you have any favourite or least favourite sections? Details are appreciated...
