Description : My latest effort! Kind of techno, with some synth-pop, and industrial. Got some more vocals this time. Hope you enjoy! Edit - Made a new mix today, because I realized I had some messed up EQ's and I backed off a little on the distortion. Enjoy! This track is included on the Spivkurl album "Labrynth Of Self".

Came back for another listen.....I cranked it up HIGH and started jumping around on my sofa!!!!! I Think the combo of this and coffee did me in!!! (Chuckles)
Hey, that means a lot to me that you wanted to hear it again! Be careful mixing those stimulants... ha ha! Hope your sofa is okay! Thanks for the support!
I love yer krayzee New wave stylings Spiv. You do got a great voice and I think whether raw or processed - I guessed that's a matter of preference. Fun overall. You'd probably be perfect for my song Real World. Only problem is I don't have a version w/o lyrics.
Hey, thanks for stopping by! I'm pretty proud of this one because it was so spur of the moment. I'm experimenting with vocal effects more on this album, due to my obsession with Ohgr. I'll go listen to your song, I'm curious!
Let me get in on this. It is cool, I need to talk to you about how you did it. I am up for learning a little more, not too much because my brain is full now. Like the beat, the vocals (mysterious) and the feel of it. Vic
Hey friend thanks for taking a listen! Some of these lyrics were written quite a while ago, and I was messing about with the Cyclop synthesizer making a sonically rich and rhythmical patch, I adjusted the tempo a little and realized it would be a great backing for the lyrics. So I wrote the chorus and went with it! The beat I think was mainly composed of pretty standard drum samples. The vocals were pretty spontaneous, and worked pretty well. Interesting you call them mysterious, that makes sense. Each section of the song has a different FX chain, except of course repeated in verses and choruses. The feel of it is hard to pin down, I think the mastering has a lot to do with it. I appreciate you leaving a comment!
Cool Spiv, it's great you did vocals, I think they are a great addition to your music. I like the track a lot, gonna dl this so thanks for sharing. Everything about this track works, it has potential I think!! Well done again, it's always fun checking out your music!
Hey Wayne, good to hear from you! I figure it's a little out of your comfort zone, so a big thank you for downloading! I really appreciate the support!
I like the song. Obviously it's my genre of music. I'll be brutally honestly to help you improve. I like your voice, but the singing is a bit raw. Sounds like the lyrics are actually a little hard to sing. Perhaps a little production on the vocals would smooth out. Don't take this critique hard man - I'm no Freddie Mercury either. I do like the style. Thanks for sharing. I'm gonna add you to my list of interesting musicians.
Thanks for taking a listen to my song, and welcome to the site! Actually in comparison to my other new songs, this one is pretty easy to sing, and it was done in one day. The spontaniety of it is what I like. I'm curious about what kind of additional production you would like to hear on the vocals? I usually like pretty raw vocals, but in this case there was a decent chain of effects going on. I appreciate the support!
Awesome track as usual! :)
There's so much I could say about this but what struck me most is those vocal effects. I've never been good at that kind of stuff but if I could do whatever you did to get that effect I might actually consider making my own vocals lol.
Hey, thanks for listening friend! I'm glad you like the vocal effects, I tried a few different things before I landed on this configuration. You should try doing vocals maybe!
Great track Spivkurl! The beat is tight and the vocals take the whole track up another couple notches. Just awesome to listen too. I have always enjoyed your unique style. The production sound good too. Nice work.
Thanks much for the listen and the fave! It all started with me messing around with a synth, and I had some of the lyrics started, I change the tempo and decided they would work together. Then I finished the lyrics and it flowed well. I hadn't thought of the goa part, but I guess you mean the acid sort of bass, yeah that makes sense. I appreciate you stopping by!
well my laptop says it's 6th track which I've downloaded from Spivkurl .. I'm glad & now I can saY I've graduallY collecTed an album from U & your traX which I've liked them more for myself & think I'll be the first Iranian who can listen U in his car while going to office or coming back to home ..so more than the others I should tell U thnX Patrick for sharing them all , listening to your traX with self style can works as an inspirator for me speciallY abouT usage of synth & electronic sound .greatest respects & appreciations.___Behnam
Oh you changed your name back! Cool! Thanks so much for downloading my work! You might want to redownload this one, as I updated the mix today. I appreciate your kindness!
Very good Spiv, you know the more I listen to your vocal delivery style, in some ways it reminds me of John Fox who fronted Ultravox! before Midge Ure, then he did this amazing solo album called Metamatic. you should definitely check it out. He is Gary Numans Inspiration. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v78Jmrb1hPY&html5=1
Hey, after listening to that video I'm honoured at the comparison! Never this before. Gary Numan is very cool, and I see the similarities. Thanks for taking a listen! I dropped a new mix of this song today, with some subtle adjustments.
Yeah Spiv! it's remenber me Devo too and Front242. It's between new wave and industrial.
I love the acid bassline and...Using RoVee on intro and outro?
Nice work :)
Thanks for taking a listen! I actually haven't had the chance to DL Rovee yet, the whispered vocals are pretty heavily processed with a chop gate, a waveshaper, an amp simulator, a parametric EQ, and a stereo enhancer. I wanted them to be hard to make out. Thanks for your comment!
Description : Feel free to check out the video on YT as well (Alan McLaren Project - Upside Down) of this 6min journey from electronic to rock with some psychedelic moments...
This is my latest, but also one of my earliest tracks.... any feedback is more than welcome, thanks :)
Description : 'The main point of this song is really about the frustrations of living in the overload of today's World of Tech. The consequences are impaired communication and that if you advance too far you end up diminishing what you had to start with, so you are way worse off.' Enjoy a 60s Rhythm with a modern deep Bass, a Sitar, a Piano from EvilPianist, a lost flute from UniverseHuston and some Oscillators :-)

Description : A demo of one of my current projects. The chorus vocal sounds like "Aaaaraashe" to me. The song is in C# minor with a nod to C# pythagorean on the chorus. The beat on the verse was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song Intruder.
Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.
Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Description : NEON DRIVE is a smooth flowing electronic track with a steady progression. I hope it entertains you and creates a temporary dreamscape for you to get lost in.
Originally started in 2008, cleaned up and completed on October 28, 2014.

Sounds like something from the great electronic 80's
Works for me lol
Good Track spiv!
