Description : Guys, I have been asked again to do another track for another friend's son.
He has asked me to do the track with an eighties heavy ascent.
I have come up with this I hope you all like it.
Description : This is for my friend Danke who can't sleep at night. Yes, heat, heat...I guess Africa is hotter, but don't let the title and intro as well, deceive you! This is not African music nor the imitation of it. It's just a picture of starry African sky at night, painted with my european musical sensibilities and some imagination. So this is for Danke in the first place and then maybe for anyone who would like to fall asleep.:)...
Good night!:)
Description : Dear Loopers...Let Ed and me take you to the world of yet another musical fantasy born out of our latest collab efforts. Ed provided basic structure of the track with ever solid rhythm section, tasty synths and vocal pads while I took
on a role of pretending to be multi-instrumentalist again by smuggling in some sweet strings, bulgarian flute, celtic harp,
unexpectedly blurry piano and this time a tiny bit of real live acoustic guitar...what an adventure for a vst/keyboard guy..:) As always
my sincere thanks to Ed not only for letting me enjoy his great musical company but also for still standing as one of the firm pillars of Looperman society !
Description : Un tema sencillo, suave. Espero que les guste.
Description : I just painted a picture of abandoned sanctuary and I thought it could sound like this...:)
Description : I went to the beach and set up my stereo recording mic under a gazebo near it (I apologize for some of the air gusts being recorded haha; we had a strong SE wind that day :P Tried my best to place it out of the wind); wanted to record myself playing live and do some cheesy roleplay in the process - wanted to make it feel like the listener was sitting there beside me. ** This is what the beach looks like: http://static.travel.usnews.com/images/destinations/80/south_padre_island_main.jpg **
Lo and behold, I'm about halfway through the song when my buddy Mark, a friend from college, heard me singing and decided to join me (he seems to never part with his guitar lol).
The expression on his face was that of confusion as to why I had my mic with me and a audio-capturing device, which I plugged into an outdoor electrical plug that the gazebo owners installed lol (I've done recordings like this before but didn't like the results; we messed up a little at the end but I was like meh it's not bad anyways.) but I'm glad he didn't say it out loud or it would have ruined the recording lol. Luckily, I was playing a song he and I wrote together some time ago, so he was able to just jump right in. He's a great guitar player.
Even though it was a little awkward at the end since we hadn't seen each other for like 4 months (you might be able to tell by the way I responded to his "thats so cool" comment haha), I think it turned out just fine. It was a lovely evening and the clouds were all poofy and happy. Lots of people were there too, though I made sure to sit far away from all of them. Ahh, it was a beautiful day. I'm glad I live by the ocean :P * Just kidding, I recorded this in my studio; though I do live close to the water, this was not recorded there :P I did everything, down to the wind blowing into the mic, except for the sound of water and the kids in the background. I got those sounds here: freesfx.co.uk/login/
The guitars and vocals were one-takes to give a more realistic feel. No pitch-correction or autotune. Just wanted to try making another soundscape (or whatever you want to call this :P) about what it's like to live by the ocean.
Description : the other end of the scale from me, yep people, this is a ballad. its for all the people who have lost somebody long before their time was due,
i used my experience of tragic loss and how i hid my mental health issues that stemmed from it while writing it, its repetitive but has fresh verses
its to Matthias music Du Bist Nicht Mehr Hier almost the same title, He has suffered too that's why he wrote the music and dedicated it to his brother. i hope i have done it justice

Description : Guys, I've Just looked at my old music archives and thought to bring some of them out for you guys to listen to.
I've made this track in loving memory of my dear brother who sadly died of cancer. He was my rock, my confidant I am already missing him.
I hope you enjoy it if you do then please leave me a comment.

Description : Glen Cloy is one of the glens of Antrim (Tumbleweed's county) in Northern Ireland. The little people, actualy fairies, populate all of them and they all have very old ghost stories that have been told for centuries (and still are)...This one is about Shaman of old and his journeys through the spiritual world...That sums up what Ed told me about the concept for our 7th (how convenient^^) collab work. The main core of the track is Ed's work and the original length was 5:18, but I wouldn't have been Orlando if I didn't tempt to compose my longest intro to date (3:10) to inject my own fantasies about little creatures of Glen Cloy (soft spot for spiritual world..hehe..). Other than that I also added some synths arrangements and vocal samples for the rest of the track and probably ruined it a bit..haha..but that's how collabs are sometimes..:)^^.....All my thanks to Ed...and Irish ghosts ofcourse...
Very cool sound, stay on top orlandoooooo
this sounds pretty awesome
lovely and dolce . good work . faved .
Orlando,
Bingo! Nailed it. I found myself imagining a flower opening in the morning to catch the sun. Very nice.
Mark.
Nice piece, Orlando.
Nice atmosphere on this. The soft peaceful Ambiance is very welcoming. Job well done here.
tv
Silent moments have become rare in this world.
I enjoyed your track properly.
Good work
Destero
This is a nice piece of ambience. The organ gives it a heavenly kind of feeling and the guitar is about as mellow as you can get.
The other instruments and the pads compliment each other beautifully and although the piece is short it really hits the spot.
FR
Great...Outstanding.
Suberb instruments combination.
Like the intro. The "Church Piano", the guitar, the background voices.
Very nice. A little sand ambient with relaxing sound.
Gorgeous, and Inspired.
Very nice track I absolutely love it!
Why so short?
perfect composition to describe landscapes,sunrise and good moments of life ...
talented and effective!
Nice work my friend
have a nice day.
I like the descending sax? sounds. A very atmospheric peice. Reminds me of an interlude track on an album before something much heavier kicks in, like on Corrosion Of Conformities Deliverence record. Well produced, nice one.
Nice, airy piece of music. I can feel my blood pressure dropping as I listen. Pretty cool!
Wayne
Great piece of music. Thanks for sharing.
;)
Very introspective. I really like the complexity and deepness. I hope to be listening to more of your stuff soon. Well produced!!
Cheers
Will
I really like this song/track. Reminds me of Radiohead or the the flaming lips
This is perfect with some triton soundscape! See a passage through dark mountains and moon as a guide while underwater.. You did well with the selection of sounds you have. Playing well telling a story. The levels are really good, so far you got a solid approach and entertaining to view. Thanks for sharing, Keep going. Peace.
tres belle realisation mes pourquoi si court domr
Very smooth passive calming the spirit track. Great use of samples. I will be back. PEACE. THE MACK MAN OUT.
peaceful piece
beautiful man!!!!
just moved along gracefully. the blend of instruments was perfect... loved it bro
d-_-b
Just got me a guitar for this past Christmas. Definitely gotta learn how to play it to make me some acoustic tunes. Another fine ambient track. Short and to the point. Nice. peace!

1 minute in is the best part
wow the butterflies are crying in your composition.
i really loved your composition.
i am in love with terse conceptual musics like this.
but maybe you can design a better ending.
this had just one loop as is ,and seemed an undone sentence.
but very deep and lone , nostalgic .
i really liked it.
This is awesome, I love that organ riff. So chill, it's beautiful.
very soothing
Beautiful work...Love it!
This was awesome
wow, Im Seriously so impressed, Especially because you used Samplitude. Im Completely in love with the harmony in this. It could be used as a score or just plain good listening. Great stuff.
Nice concept
dear Orlando , I listened ,listened , listened , listened & again listened this totally 5 times , & 5 . 100 = 500 seconds admiered U in my head for such a considered & thaughtfull composition .I'm a big fan of short traX & specially my fav duratin is 100 seconds & having about 20 short & exacyly 100 seconds or less trax ( right now in my looperman visible traX U can see just one of them=100 seconds recital piano for thinking to deaf humans ),and any way according to this private interest to 100 seconds duration for each track , I really found it a very impressive & good music & better than many of my 100 seconds traX....faved for sure , thnx for sharing & greatest respects & adorations for your great musical tallent.best wishes.___Behnam
Very cool sound, Orlando. I enjoyed this.
Cheers,
Scott
Sounds beautiful, but I would enjoy a full version (or this could be an interlude), anyways thanks for sharing ;)
You have an awesome beginning. now you must complete your journey! (great pads, nice guitars, I hear some midi instruments as well)Organ is pleasant. I look forward to hearing the conclusion of this piece.
Steve
some really rich sounds Orlando...and they are everything that is needed in this mix...I have a tendency to clutter my mixes a bit at times and this superb minimal approach is proof that a few of the proper sound choices lets each one really contribute its part that much better....good listening...a big well done to you...Ed
nice one, and certainly one that you could extend, I am learning fast that putting everything including the kitchen sink into a track isn't always the way, as this proves...great job Orlando.
Hello ....
A concept I understand well .... A good prelude that you should extend.
Dan
A peaceful piece and allows time for quiet reflections.
Love the ambience! :)
Same as Danke..fabulous..
Beautiful artwork...hat's off...
Danke
