Premonator With Spivkurl Promenade Mix - Promenade2239

Thank you! I am sorry for slow replying. I truly appreciate your nice words.

Hello Ookami

Thans for a nice review.

The song is in 3/4 at 130bpm. Chord progression is FMaj-EbMaj-Dmin-EbMaj. The actual feeling of the music is
a kind of a very slow 9/8 or moderately fast 9/4 meter because the actual rhythm grouping is 3 x 3/4. It is quite unusual approach at least when compared with what is happening in modern dance music. However, the vocals are mainly 4/4 as well as guitars - at least this is how I perceive it mostly.
It all loops fine together because 12 bars of 3/4 are equal to 9 bars of 4/4 in length.
I also slightly manipulated manually the time inside the daw so some sections come a little later than they should strictly mertonomically.

I am glad you liked the song. Thanks for nice comments once again!
Alex

Hello SJ
Thank you for listening and your nice words!
It is much appreciated.

Our musical styles and visions are definitely very different so the result was unpredictable. I was trying to make a kind of a 'proper' song out of the given material - this is one of the final versions from many sketches I came up with when working on 'Premonator' project.
I think the 'original' one will be eventually posted as well sometime.

I am really happy you liked it! Thanks again for taking a listen. All the best to you,
Alex

Thank you so much Bear for the compliments!

I am still learning how to record real instruments (church organs) which is a part of my work as a restorer of historical monuments here in Poland. Also there is some amount of piano music I really want to capture, mostly classical.
Producing and recording using daw is different as it is for me more about the artificial manipulation (I mean creating musical 'illusions') than playing everything 'live' honestly. I am not that much active as a performer/keyboardist currently but there are another ways in which I can still somehow continue music-making. I will definitely return to playing at some point and maybe will upload more live recorded music on looperman then as well.

We put much energy to make "Premonator' project happen and I am glad that Spiv allowed me to publish this particular version of the song. Thank you for your support and your nice words on this unconventional composition. I much appreciate that.

Best to you, Alex

hello Frozen. thanks for listening and your nice review! All those strange insect and as others say 'organic'
sounds are basically made using Microbrute synthesizer. There is some manual LFO manipulation and
sequencer running at a fast rate. 'Robot' is autotune effect on vocals (I used 'KeroVee' plugin).
I am glad you liked the track. Till next time, A.

hello Joe
Thank you for listening and your continous support! .

I am sorry for the late reply.

Yes, it is a kind of musical experiment and actually I am far away from the sound-image of the original. I 'autotuned' Spivkurl's vocals - all the rest (except drums and percussions) are my synths. I still need more time to use them fully and creatively - so far the possibilities to shape the sound are impressive even by playing with presets.
It is really nice you mentioned Air because I really like their 'Moon Safari' album; as for the Kraftwerk I must say I know only some single songs - 'The Model' and others but it is of course very classic band. I am happy that you pointed some connections eventhough I've tried to create everything almost entirely from scratch and didn't really chase for any particular style at least consciously haha

I am really glad you liked the song. Thanks once again for your nice words!
Best to you, Alex

hello. Thank you for your nice words! I am really happy you liked the song. Alex

Thank you so much Steve!

There were many versions - now I want to make an retrograde update and post one of those less organic. No problem with remixing at all.

I will post more electronic tracks for sure somwhere in the near future.

Thank you for good words! I am really happy you liked what I did.
Alex

hello Orlando

thank you for all kind words and adding this one to your favourites. It is much appreciated!

Alex

hello ReonN

thank you for listening and your comment! Synths were Roland and Microbrute. It is nice that you experienced this composition of sounds being narrative.

Thanks again!
Alex

hello Ed

Thank you for listening and kind comment!

Actually all the synths on the track are mine - Spiv helped me alot to record them properly.
Those unusual sounds are programmed sequences from Arturia Microbrute played at a high rate.
I think the 'Premonator' will still evolve and the other version will be posted sometime.

Regarding to the radio... basically I've tried what I can on the level of composition and arrangement but still there is so much I can do to adjust my recordings to the modern standards. They are usually much quiter. This might become important when playing tracks as a list/set or as an album. So far my focus is on the single tracks in different styles as it somehow fits Looperman nature very well so the lack of mastering is not the problem.
Our styles are indeed quite different but recently I've started experimenting with real synthesizers. Also I want to get more of them in the near future so I will definitely be continuing the 'process'.

I am glad that you enjoyed our efforts. Thanks again!
Alex

Hello Domenico!

Good to see you again.

Thank you so much for your kind comment, I truly appreciate your support.

I must say that I totally transformed the original 'Premonator' to something entirely new but I didn't expect it will turn into something like that as I worked with given material experimenting a lot, I mean: there is an autotune hard processing on vocals and my arrangement is very different from Spivkurl's version (it will be published at some point if the future as well!). I am still learning how to record real synthesizers (I've used Roland JunoDi and Arturia Microbrute exclusively for creating all instrumental parts of this song). I didn't actually use any of 'epiano' sounds but a combination of acoustic piano and string pad. For now I am still by presets but I think I should find more time to create my own patches soon. I will be definitely expanding my synth sound in the future.

I am happy you liked the song. Thank you again.

Best, Alex
