Dec - Your Hand Mr Burke - Decnet

8th Oct 2012 20:56 - 14 years ago
Description : A musical piece portraiting a Cyberpunk-tea-party.. I had the original Idea behind this extremly futuristic Brittish classic tea-party with influences like the mad hatter and mr rabbit.

"Your hand Mr.Burke" is simply an indication of burning himself when holding a cup.

Lots of violins and classic techno..

Enjoy! ///Dec

Everyone seems to think the kick is off. I would suggest replacing it with a larger type of drum sound. The first thing I thought of was the drums in the chorus. Something kind of tribal-like. Probably a deeper though. I remember seeing a band playing one of those larger rounded drums with the rounded, padded sticks and it sounded very interesting. Maybe someone knows the name of them.

Anyway, it may not be necessary, but it might help to add something else to the chorus to give it more depth.

Great track though it reminds me of something you'd hear in a movie especially before a climactic event

That is actually a great idea. I ahve always been a big fan of huge drums and well, drums that sound out of the ordinary and theres tons of variations out there that one could implement. Ive said it before and have to say it again that this kick you hear in mr.burke isnt even supposed to be there in the upload from the first place and is used as a beatracker for my own purpose when freeplaying either synths or the lpd8.

Thank y9ou for a proper review and ill make sure to have the huge drums in mind if i recreate this one again..

this is a lovely piece, sadly let down by the kick, i think maybe softer, glitchier type drums would have really complemented the music that should be glowing, but is knocked back by the odd sound of the kick, sort that out and you have a really great creation.

Glad you liked the tune and i dont know if ive excused myself enough for the kick in this case that is intended to be used as beattracker when i freeplay, and unfortunetly un-extracted when i finalized it. I did not listen to the upload here on looperman and i was sitting on a plance started to read the replies from the reviews and wondered "whot the heck are these fellows talking about??"

anyways... glad you liked the rest of it lol...

I am a big Steaem punk fan, even got a leather tophat with goggles!! it has a lovely transition to the fuller sound. One thing for me is an elevated drum pattern for the Chorus would really take it to the next level, Also a tiny bit more variation in the velocitys of the string stabs would really give them life!!:)

Leather tophat with goggles rock.. Thank you for the review tho even tho i realized i made a huge mistake(read previous posts), and drumpattern, well, ill see what i can do sinse this piece isnt supposed to have any drums at all in it from the first place.. lol.

Anyways.. Ill make sure to upload the one that was "intended" from start to make this tune some sort of justice...

Thank you again ///Dec

oh lah... that fruity kick seems alittle off and out of the mix, perhaps try dialing up the resonance, pitch etc.. it's overpowering... or even a different kick sound or 2...

gonna need to kick the drums in somewhere, like add a snare, cymbals.. mmmm, it'll give it more power and movement

dig the symphonic sounds, nice melodies, i keep wanting to hear electric guitar kick in lol...

not a bad start, I can hear it opening up, esp when the synths all come in together, need that drum pattern big time.

Well, just posted a reply to inPSYcle about the kick in this piece, and must confess i made a big mistake.. I accidently uploaded my tune without extracting the beat i use to keep track the bpm when freeplaying my synth at the same time. This tune isnt even supposed to have a kick of anykind in it.. Im sorry for the mess, and i was hugely surpriced when i started to read the reviews.. Ill make sure to upload the tune without my beat-tracking-kick in the background or "foreground" in this case.. Anyways, thank you for the review.. ///Dec

I like the violin melody in this. The techno like thump kick doesn't fit to me however. Kind of competes with the other sounds. I like the arpeggiated synth though, makes it more trance when that comes on. More of a mix of genres. This has nice potential though, would of liked to hear more done with it. solid track. peace out!

Omg.. Just realized i made a huge booboo.. I was on the plane back to my Island, and read the reviews about Thy hand mr.burke and people started to talk about the "beat", and i was like "whot beat? Theres no beat in mr.burke???" when i recorded it i always liveplay "something" at the same time and to be spot on with the tempo i use a drum that i exludes when finalizing. This tune wasnt even ment to have a beat in it.. lol.. Well, thank you anyways when it comes to the review even if i made a complete f-up when uploading it.. made i sould start to listen to the uploads i make to make sure that none of this will happen again..

Thanks again.. ///Dec

Description : This short audio introduces MossFree Shoreline, a roof care service based in Shoreline, Washington. It explains how moss spreads across wet Pacific Northwest roofs, creeps under the shingles, and holds moisture against the roof all year long, and how a gentle soft wash removes that moss without damaging the shingles. It also covers the other services mentioned in the audio: moss treatment and prevention, gutter cleaning, and roof leak detection. roofmossremovalshorelinewa.com

Lyrics are literally just an absolutely abrasive and unrecognizable part of the verse to John Lennon's Working Class Hero which
illuminates my bullying more than any song I have come across ever.

Description : I wanted to create something similar to Celldweller's songs, but with a more upbeat vibe. :P

I created the vocals while benchmarking the vocal capabilities of various AI models: sound effects, transitions, etc. Modern AI models have already been reduced, so they won't be able to do that (I tried).

I used Audacity/OpenMPT (also audio2audio).
