Angel In The Air Tonight - Aelmen

Description : It all started when I had a moment to listen to my mp3 collection of tracks and came across Fridas - There is something going on. I instantly got the feeling that this arrangement from Phil Collins is so good that I have to bring it back to todays sound without doing a remix of the old song.

So i looped the drums at the start of the original song with a slight offset which was not intended but it sounded quite cool so I decided to keep it.

I created a new arrangement that still had the old 80's vibes and browsed through looperman.com to find a siutable vocal track that I could use.

I found Come into my life a trance acapella by a user called mhyst (https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/8306/come-into-my-life-trance-acapella-by-mhyst-140bpm-trance-acapella) and decided to use a part of it.

Well, that's the story. Enjoy.

Hi!

The 80's is forever a part of my influence in music. I cannot and I will not try to get rid of it.

Who is your favorite artist from the 80"s era? And do you work in a studio?

Hi Greg!

I remember having posters of Duran Duran in my boy room during my youth. Their album Arena has formed my music influences I believe. But also The Police especially the album synchronicity and also David Bowies album Let's Dance, Alphaville - Forever young, the list goes on.

I work at home. I move around in my apartment and the pattern seem to be that the music is created in the sofa while the mixing is done in the bed. Sounds strange when i think about it.

Hi!
It sure was different back in the days. I can imagine what living as a big producer was like. Mixers, cigarettes and other unhealthy things ;)

Glad you took your time to listen and commenting.

Description : Once a place for creativity, collaboration, and growth. Now a hollow exchange of empty praise, diminishing substance, and increasingly restricted expression.

After years of watching the changes, I've watched enough.

Residual Signal. A final transmission from something that's no longer finding much reason to remain connected.

The message is in the music. The words are in the lyrics section. Whether you choose to listen is entirely up to you.

Description : I wrote this demo not a long ago. It's a Hungarian pop-punk / pop-rock song, I really like my vocals and just finished writing it. Some feedback would be helpful, especially on the vocals and how the demo mix sounds.

Description : Okay, this one is just a straight up song. Can rap on it, but basically wasn't made for that purpose. lol

Anyway, had to take a day off Saturday, so apologies with not coming out with anything. As a way of helping you all make piece with that, you can download this track as consolation and play it in the background of Sonic Riders or some Sonic game.

Description : Some years since I uploaded here. My music has significantly changed since I started. This particular tune started as a mess around. I was wondering if one can make a cool tune using a harp a a xylophone. You tell me what you think?
