My Memories Of A Ghost With The Violin - Orlando51

4th Feb 2014 17:23 - 12 years ago
Description : Sounds somehow familiar? It should!! One of the most talented musicians on Looperman (not to mention how great person he is), well known as Tumbleweed, was kind enough to let me toy with his recent masterpiece "Memories And Ghosts" which I instantly fell in love with. The original track is basicaly intact...there was no editing of any kind. I only added a good portion of violins to the arrangement as well as some very discreet piano and synth sounds .If anyone would like to know how to ruin a masterpiece, here's the ultimate recipe!^^....All thanks to Ed! This should be called "With The Kind Permission Of" but that's already a title of some Jethro Tull track and I really wouldn't like to mess with Ian Anderson! According to what people say, he must be far less generous than Ed is!^^

Wow...what a pleasant surprise! This is relatively old one so I didn't expect any more noteworthy comments any more, but I was wrong and sometimes is nice to be wrong!:)
Thank you so much for this generous feedback!

Of course we are all familiar with Ed's talent so i thought i'd tune in to this one. I can instantly hear tumbleweeds guitar sounds shining through. His stuff always reminds me a little of Chris Issak.
What you've done with the atmosphere is great. Those pad sounds really compliment the guitar and give it your own flavours. It's kind of Pink Floydish in it's trippyness.
A very good track to kick back and relax to.
Absolutely brilliant mate.

Taking one of Ed's works and feeling the need to add to it. That's a bold move, my friend. You executed it well, and stuck a perfect landing. I believe we all benefit from this. You, Ed, and each of us that have had the pleasure of listening. Good work.

I love seeing 2 members of looper-man touching each other with there musical abilities. Your violin is haunting and I love the dissonant layers you add. Ed is a consummate musician and you could choose no better than than him to add to his beautiful melodic compositions. Kudos to both of you

You have been "touched" by the production of Ed, and You have complied the "theme first", of this track .... and this accompaniment is all at your honor .... This is a very neat design and quality, as we would like to hear more often.

I have heard the original and your version. You added in a good way to the masterpiece. For travelers like me the additions you carefully introduced share another side of the scene we first saw but the story continues. It sounded natural on your end with this mix kept the original speaking strong. Good work and thanks for sharing. Peace.

If there was any objectivity in music,or art in general,(but there isn't), and if we would assume your words to reflect that objectivity, then I could have said that my goal was reached.:)^^

never heard the original but everything on this mix is beautifully balanced. the synths are warm and the violin line really enhances with a counterpoint on top of the mix. it's a nice concept. i'm about 2:58 in now. i like how you take the mix down here for a little bit - some transperency - some breath. very rich beautiful sounds. nice mellow licks. thoroughly enjoying it! crazy piano lick at the end! congrats to both of y'all!

Having listens to both versions, i can surly say the violins give it a much (fuller?) soul, makes it feel a lot more real.

Hi Orlando,
Have listened three times now, and nailed, well and truly are the words that spring to mind, you have not compromised the original track in any way, and the violins and piano sit and blend so well, if any critique, just the change at 2.37 is maybe a bit sharp, but that is fleeting and probably just me and it didn't ruin my enjoyment of the track at all. Great job Orlando and can I have your recipe!! oh and no need to worry about the great Ian Anderson, I believe he is a pussycat these days!!
Very best wishes,
Mark/Larry!
Orlando51
Orlando51 replied 4th Feb 2014 - 12 years ago
Hi Mark,
I always look forward reading your honest comments, so welcome again mate:) You have very good ear, but you will have to talk to Ed about 2.37 sharpness over left chanel. It didn't disturb me personaly, on the contrary, I pretty much liked it, so I took no steps to possibly lower it in the mix as is the case with entire original.Everything is intact and the basic track is presented within it's original mix. Maybe the only critical point to me is at around 1:42 (that one goes on my account),where the change appears to be a bit clumsy. I was tempting to correct it, quite a few times, but in the end of the day I kinda liked it and I said to myself that every decent artwork has to have it's dubious spot.:)I think even Ian Anderson would agree, about whom you might be right...he must have become more humble in his ageing times.:)
So, thanks alot again for positive thoughts, my friend, and see you around soon..

Orlando

Well, sorry Orlando - your recipe doesn't work - it's not ruined at all. :)
On the contrary, t's even more of a masterpiece after you added your ingredients in to this piece of art!

This is Hauntingly Beautiful Music.

Hope you enjoy my new rap track. I have edited the previous track since I am allowed only 1 upload per day here. This is the final mastered version. The previous version had mastering problems which I have adjusted here.
