Interview With A Stranger - Phyruis

Description : So...really this is my first track in about six months maybe more... well I said that it's the first track I have finished to a decent standard... it maybe a little rough around the edges as I think the track could do with a final mix down...

I was inspired to write this by listening to adam F and a like also I had been listen to a lot of dark jungle as well..this track doesn't reflect the darkness... I don't think anyway...

Made in Ableton Live 8 using the Akai.. a few pre set on massive which I tweaked the hell out of... a load of one shot from various places...

I have to say I enjoyed making this track and I haven't done that for a good while..

thanks

Great comeback track, awesome atmosphere at intro with that tape reel fx,imagined I was in Blade Runner,hoped is a better word!
Liking your beats in the minimal style ,those sounds are spot on with the track,bass adds great depth without dominating too much...I find this tune hard to fault.

Want to use this in the nxt looperman dnb dj mix ,with your say so of course.

Keep making Drum and Bass!

Firstly, great to see you back on the scene and hear some new stuff!

Secondly, this is an awesome return! Feels like you have totally absorbed yourself into this work and created a piece that clearly got you excited.

I've been listening to quite a bit of dark jungle / darkstep lately and this is way up there with what I've heard. Great composition and arrangement. If this is a rough mix then damn, I still have much to learn!

Hopefully you wont leave it so long before the next track? Great work indeed my friend. Downloaded? Hell Yeah!

Seeing you return to the site is certainly something I can welcome. The fact you've done something liquid too is certainly also something refreshingly good to hear; and so incredibly chilled out.

The pad work is fantastic, the vocal sample rings something of Boards of Canada. The drumwork is beautifully done. Sounds very unreal tornament/90s video game inspired, which is certainly not a bad thing at all.

A 6 month break certainly hasn't caused you harm my friend. In fact, I would argue the opposite. This is a beautifully composed track, an absolute pleasure to listen to.

Most importantly this track never breaks atmosphere; it has a very nice, very consistant feel, and flows incredibly smoothly.

Beautifully executed Phyrius, welcome back to the site.

This is smooth my friend! The drums are something to be proud of! That bass is subtle yet very fun! Perfect mix and arrangement! This song eats me alive! Faved for sure, now that the option is back!

I have been getting a bit of an education on some of the electronica genres around the Loop PBJ.(I still got a long way to go I think)...and one of the things I am really noticing is some the great synth sounds and nice speaker-shaking production....another good one here....Now I know where to come when I ned to further my learning....nicely done....Ed

he's back

nice to see you making music again is been to long my friend i like this track i see the influence i like the intro it has some ambient notes then it morphs into a dark composition and it gets darker and darker i like the light beats its not to heavy but easy on the ears well thought up tracks you should continue in this path your glitch tracks are nice but you are now unleashing the dark jungle soldier within you

i will be adding tracks here soon i have many that need to be completed

great track dude keep them coming

Very true indeed.More of this to come we hope.

Hello ....

If I understand correctly, this is a new beginning for you, almost a rebirth in fact ??....
This is very special, and not quite a genre I know, but the concept is pretty catchy.
You have not lost the "hand" and your talent and your musical personality, are always present ....

awesome track, love how you incorperated those sounds into the structure, especially that cassete-change-sounds before the drums set in... very chilled and dreamy track.

Atmospheric liquid drum & bass meets deep house and UK garage, blending rolling breakbeats, deep sub-bass, chopped ethereal female vocals and nostalgic late-night ambience.

Description : I wanted to create something dark and romantic with an RnB and retro wave touch. This song has a retro futurism feel to it. I was inspired by The Weeknd when I was writing this song, especially his first mixtape, House Of Balloons, hence the deep roamntic analogies in the songwriting. I have sung this song myself and produced it too. No AI used here. This is an old song.
