Constellation - Evisma

Description : Real acoustic, electric and bass guitars played by me. Drums are loops and programmed MIDI. Played piano and synths. Lots of layers and delay. A gated moog, organ, my recorded finger-snaps and a reversed bass guitar effect that sounds like throat-singing. Three movements, divided by moments of calm. Thoughts and feedback are welcome.

Well hello, my endlessly patient but entirely intolerant bassic bro.

How does it go?

Just some replies to your replies:

You may get your "levelling Syria" wish/bet as I think the RAF (British Air Force) have already started bombing. Maybe there will be retaliation bombing campaigns over meth-heavy Ozark regions. Be on your guard and if you see something, say something.

"we'd have to get Behnam out of Iran before we level it."

How about not bombing anywhere, you crazy Yank?

" adding more wang into the picture"

I promise I will add no wang. Sounds like Constellation might be able to accommodate a 1-incher but 11 will surely be too much for a microvag. Terrible risk of tearing.

Teeth pain is mainly over but damn it took ages (10 days). Not sure I had any injection sites as I was under full anaesthetic so utterly oblivious to everything.

"I may be more Sliderboy than Sliderman for a while, till my lap-steel balls drop."

If you're going with the youthful/inexperienced analogy for your current level of slide proficiency, I think you'll have to be SlideBaby. Maybe I'm more Grand Slide Daddy or Grand Slide Wizard. No, I'm not really that great but I have been doing it for about 10 years. Slide is hard, with lots of accuracy required to avoid undesired notes. I'm looking forward to hearing your first slide creation.

Try dropping your balls on your lap steel. I do that quite often to get a different tone. And that way you know your music is nothing if not ballsy.

I was going to give The Evanator an end of year review but I think I've run out of words.

Nomad, the Chosen One, the One who will deliver the message. A message of hope for those who choose to hear it and a warning for those who do not.

I love the harmonic interplay of the guitars in the opening section, accented by the washes and beat. The overall progression of the piece is impressive, with the heavy bass in the 2nd movement lifted by the synths into a resolution in the 3rd. That reversed bass guitar in the third section is yes, very unique! I really enjoyed listening to this track. thanks for creating it.

Evan, Mister Evan. What's happnin' your way, man? How was your Thanksgiving? Pleasant, I hope.

Remember that time I said you're on the verge of breaking through into that sound that's all your own? Well, my friend, you are well past that threshold. Granted, this one still has some pretty hefty nods to those who's name shall remain unspoken, but it's like the equivalent of my "Red On The White" in that sense. It's got a strong Floyd vibe, but it's not intended to sound like them. Ya know?

I have to agree with Tumbleweed, man. This one is clearly your best yet. I kind of feel like saying this on damn near every track you put out cheapens the meaning, but when you come back with each track, it's improved far beyond the last. The composition, the mixing, the instrumentation, all of it is exactly how it should be.

I have no critiques, criticisms, or suggestions, man. You nailed it as far as I'm concerned!

I'd still love to do a collab one of these times. You know, put in my synths real Sloe like right into your Bass hole...er, uhhh....NO HOMO! I need to go wash off the filth now.

Later, man.
Aaron.

Mr. Aaron. We meet again, in notes on this pegboard in the hallway. Always just missing the other by moments.

The high praise is not easy for me to accept. It is appreciated. I'm wanting to create my music more closely to what I hear in my mind, and the longer I hold on to them and lay my thoughts upon them, the truer they are to their origin. I had a pretty busy spurt for about a year and a half. Now it's more about quality over quantity.

"put in my synths real Sloe like right into your Bass hole"

Just bring the valve oil, baby. You're in for a treat. I'm practiced in the art of Strobe-Clenching. You'll never be the same. I leave dongs looking like they have heat-sinks.

Take care.

Wow I have been blessed with an opportunity to listen to this absolute gem. This is beyond amazing and professional. Not only are you a talented musician but you are phenomenal at mixing. This track sounds awesome in headphones. You pretty much immersed the listener into your world. I am just floating around in this maze of musical magic. Love every second from the guitar to the bass to the piano to that "throat singing" effect.

What a journey! Great work!

Hi Evan,

Long time no talk. I saw your track and alway know you put out some fine quality music, so figured I'd give it a spin. Really like this from the very start. Some very nice elements involve...Good job, my friend.

Ciao,

I like the idea of "3 movements" - sort of a nod to classical form - and maybe it gives you more freedom to bring in a variety of styles/genres - which I feel you do in an effective way. The live playing is fantastic. I love that new synth and groove at around 1:15-1:20. The throat singing is crazy fresh. Cool track. Great work!

Hello, Mr. Sparks.

I do like making tracks with separate sections. I don't typically repeat a part once I've moved from it, so it helps with big changes.

Busy with a new track or I would do your musical image interpretation. Appreciate the offer!

Thanks again for the listen and the feedback.

speaking of hungarian bands, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_FJEoXwkNE and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9F7b4skyUy4 HAHAHA Bet you'd never expect to see bagpipes, accordion, fiddles, oud all used in metal! You'd probably like a band called Faun. They use ancient acoustic instruments combined with modern musio, not metal but very good. Alot of your music reminds me of their style. I got a hurdy gurdy vst hoping to make some music with soon as well as loops. Love acoustic guitar, I need a full sized one!! Very cool track! See hat great things come out of experimentation, as long as your not making bioweapons (zombies, monsters, viruses, ect) that is LOL!

There are more than a few very creative people on the loop but I dont think I have heard anything more creative that has been actually played with real instruments and sounds made by the composer...it is not only well done ..it is damn good listening...just a great track Evan...fav from me....Ed

Hello, Ed.

That may be the highest compliment I've ever received here. Deeply appreciated. I've been trying to not rush anything with the last few tracks. Hope it shows.

Thank you again for your very kind words. Kinda blew me away.

Oh man the intro guitars are awesome! Perfectly clean and just the right amount of delay. I always love to hear another guitar players work and this sounds good man. I dig it.

Glad you liked it. The delay was from a pedal so I'm glad it sounds good because it's permanent.

Brilliant track...I love the acoustic intro with a little touch of Mettalica...really nice playing of acoustic guitars and bass...and the use of synths and effects is outstanding. Overall balance of instruments is something to admire and production is top notch as well ! Faved !:)

Hello, good sir.

The video, I must say, was pretty awesome till the chick came in and weirded me out. I liked the music quite a bit. I dislike the look of those violin basses and every time I pick one up, they sound very dull. I've been happy with my Ibanez. Sounds better than others I've played.

Thanks for the kind words and the listen, and the video with some new music to my ears. My MP3 player's library is getting pretty stale.

Brilliant song Evan!

Maybe I sent to you before (I don't remember, or that was Static) the Hungarian band is called Másfél's (it means one and a half) song...it's title is Zuma...their music (specially not that song) always reminds me to your art...it's of course not the same music but in feeling...

This progrock is one of your best...those guitars are both awesome...every part fits perfectly together, we don't miss anything from here...

My warmest handshake, Danke

Glad you liked it. Hope you know there are no guitar loops. Only about half the drums are drum loops. I've never used a music-loop unless it was drums.

hello Evan. Acouistic guitars are wonderfully clean on the first section and there is a perfect amount of delay on them. Second part is fine too - more funky and I like synths a lot. There are so many enjoyable details throughout making me want to loop your track again and again. The character of that bass effect corresponds nicely with the drumming. It is definitely a more inventive, creative track from you.
Also the balance between melodic and dynamic elements is perfect. The narration is very smooth at the same time and it is truly a coherent composition.

Very enjoyable music to listen to!
Congratulations on making such a nice track.

Hello, Alex.

Very high praise. I thank you very much. I really enjoyed doing this one and messing with the acoustic. Not an expensive acoustic, but sounds rather good. I always finger-pick the guitar and pick the bass. A bit backwards.

Thank you again for the kind words and the listen. It is appreciated.
