Description : This is basically a dance track with integration of Bhangra elements. To say this is high energy would be an understatement. The track uses house construction kits and samples from various sources with Bhangra (Punjabi) instruments and voices. Recut 5-8-2014. Recut again 5-21 slightly better mix. Comments welcome.

Yes! wicked sound. Thanks for sharing, I've downloaded and gonna play this forever. Can't quite get my head around 0:30 to 0:45, but who cares, this is brilliant!

Thanks for your kind comments and downloading - I'm in the process of re-integrating 30 to 45 - I agree it is not coherent as currently mixed but hopefully will make more sense in the next cut - maybe not but I'm trying to improve the mix.
Again, thanks for listening.

Cool track... Clindsay...Lots of nice stuff going on with flavour...

Wars and rumours of War, but nobody wants to die...LOL

If you are interested in being on the radio, or selling your tunes
by using the radio, then you would have a problem other then
that....Play your Music or Make your Music like you want...

Radio has been crunching Music, for as long as I can remember
and that's been a long time...They are trying to take control of the
air waves again, now that they have lost it to the internet...
Yes Stations are on the net. but they are more in line with us then
the stations outside the box, they are the ones doing the most crying...
Because most of them are still running on grandpa's gear, and don't really
want to upgrade so they figure lets make them downgrade so we don't
blow up our stuff...Speakers...Amps and the like..
cheaper for us..

Don't get me started...


Peace......TG.

TG - thanks for your comments - not sure I understand the bits after but it may be academic since this is produced with other people's loops and could not be reproduced without permissions etc. I'm just a hobbyist havin' fun. Again, thanks.

So, there is not a lot that will get me off my duff and up and moving around, but this track did exactly that. And something else, I felt GOOD listening to this...hard not to smile while moving to the beat.

I never pay much attention to genres, but I do pay attention to great music, and this track fits that category nicely. I loved the break at the 2:55 mark, gave me a few seconds to catch my breath, hahaha. I love this tune!!! Added to favorites and downloaded for those days when I don't get enough coffee (thank you for that). A whole lot of awesomeness right here. I hope all is well.

Ahh okay, well from the positive side you don't hear the genre a lot (or at least I don't)
It surely gets people moving, can't imagine that most people stand still on this one haha

And I just realized that your picture isn't a pipe with a bush in it hahahahaha, I kept mistaking it for that for like forever but it's just the shadow that makes it look like that

Thanks- my reply was not really directed at your comments but to some earlier. I probably didn't do a great job of describing the track when I posted it.
If you want to hear the variety of Bhangra I have a playlist below that pretty well covers the breadth of the genre.

It was interesting hearing this song, a lot of electronics involved in this one while keeping a sort of tribal feel to it. Also some electro house sort of stuff going on.
Sure a crazy track but it was enjoyable to listen to and fun ;)

Thanks for sharing this clindsay
clindsay
clindsay replied 10th May 2014 - 12 years ago
Thanks for your comments - I think it may be appropriate to share that this is not really 'out there' within the genre. The vocals are taken form Billy Sagoo's samples and are fairly standard to the genre which is designed for dancing and celebration. Granted the house loops add a different level of energy but the purpose is to get people moving. The subtext is not subtle and this is basically a balls to the wall expression of energy with a bit of tongue in cheek.
Again, thanks for your kind comments - just want to expand on what this is supposed to be.

Open mind is good!

Just because many people say 2+2=5m then it does not mean it is the truth.

It is like Plato's cave:

If you really want to dig into the loudness war and learn how it is making the sound of the music bad. Then this one is for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IE4wVwoFdYg

This is gold info, because you will stand out by making music sound better haha

clindsay replied 10th May 2014 - 12 years ago
Thanks again - You may ascribe more sophistication to my producing ability than I'm due. I watched most of the second video and it was helpful. Like I wrote below, I'm just a duffer lining up loops - hopefully in unique ways but I mainly produce by ear with minimal changes to the loops and virtually none to the master or effects. This will help expand my horizons of the possible. The loudness wars were not even on my radar so I've learned something new about production.

Very interesting style here! I had to go wiki "Bhangra," as it sounded familiar, but I wasn't sure what it referred to. The bass parts are really sweet and powerful! The vocal parts add a lot of course, and you did a great job mixing them! I especially liked the more sparse parts of this track, very clear and open to interpretation. Definitely a cool tech piece! Keep it up!
clindsay
clindsay replied 9th May 2014 - 12 years ago
Thanks - this one was fun. Bhangra also spelled Banghra is a pretty wide open genre and pulls from a lot of styles but retains a kind of signature rhythm . Thanks for the listen and the kind words.

Amazing sound you have going on here. I love the craziness and all the changes, keeps the listener intrigued the whole time. Great stereo separation and production. I just picture some underground party in Bangalore where this is being played.
keep on

Nice up tempo piece of dance music. I like the way it changes as it goes along. It's completely crazy. Did you enter this into the origional song competition? If not you should have done.
Bhangra Techno works pretty damn well.
Glad i stoppped by.
The vocal samples are great.

Yeah, this is pretty crazy. I'm not sure if there is a bhangra-hard techno genre (probably) but this would fit right in.

0:51 killer bass riff definitely gets my attention. The ones before that are decent but don't stand out that much for me.

1:43 another massive aggressive riff.

1:53 vocal reminds me just a little of some of the vocals on The Prodigy's classic Hyperspeed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwiMfPq_eco

I thought 2:55 was probably long enough for this bit of high energy madness. But why not come back for one last sweaty writhing body stomping workout?

You can probably guess it's not exactly my kind of thing but I appreciate and do like some elements. Probably a bit too crazy and fizzy (high frequencies) for me but good crossover dancefloor stuff.
clindsay
clindsay replied 7th May 2014 - 12 years ago
As always I appreciate your analysis especially on tracks that are not your thing. By the time I post these (there are several in the bank), I'm second guessing everything. Ironically Hyperspeed is more coherent than my track but I think mine has more power. This is in line with mainstream Bhanghra at this point (I know, go figure)and would not be considered crazy within that genre which mixes hip-hop with dance with traditional Punjabi rhythms in pretty eccentric ways.

I originally had this longer and you are right on about adding the sweaty bits for another round but I've kind of learned that to get traction tracks need to be shorter than 4 minutes. I'll add more in the club mix.
Again, thank you for taking the time to provide valuable analysis. It is always appreciated.

Description : I wanted to produce something as close to conventional trap as I could, while still keeping the Mindway sound. The verses and bridge are as close to rapping as I will probably ever get, and using 808s is kinda growing on me. Maybe could be better, but I am liking where it is.

Description : This is a complete redo of a Jazz track I wrote a while ago and uploaded earlier this year. I attempted to remaster the original, and it bit me. So I bit back and here's the result. Jazz with a Latin flair. For those interested, I mastered this using the HUM JAAL mastering limiter. I'm loving that BEAST! Take a listen and share your thoughts Enjoy!

Description : What up LM family, next up is a track we put together last week, and one of my current favs. I got the stems from Nea Mera's remix of 'Make Em Feel This' and made some dope samples that really accent this track. He said it's hard for him to hear everything that I did with his stems, but I also know that LM is full of audiophiles who will pick out everything in a heartbeat. So Remember, this was your suggestion, Nea Mera LOL. I remembered to list the personel this
