Description : Guys, This track made for a short movie.
I hope you enjoy it if you do then please leave me a comment.
Description : First off, I am a huge fan of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "The Hobbit." After watching all of the movies (including the final chapter of the Hobbit", I was motivated to write something that I thought might work with their journey home.
Samplitude has a couple of great new VST's, one called "World Flutes" and the other "Celtic Harp" and I used both of them in this song. I created every last note on this one. Guitars were all Fenders, soft synths besides the Samplitude items mentioned previously were created in the SynthMaster series by KVR, and the strings were created with Samplitude's "String Ensemble."
Not sure about the mix (my hearing is shot), so most of the mixing is done by sight instead of listening. If you hear something way out of whack, let me know. If you are interested in taking this one further, let me know and I'll post a link to the stems. Thanks to the Hobbit for the inspiration and to you for listening.
EDIT: I've had some requests for the individual instrument stems so here is the link to all of those files. The tempo is 80bpm. Feel free to do whatever you want with this one.

EDIT: I've had over 200 downloads of the stems, so if you have done anything with them it would be cool to hear it (thanks for the interest).
Description : Hey everyone, here is a quick cinematic track I created. This one was not made with any particular project in mind. But, I definitely may use in the future.

Description : Ok...here it is! Another colab with maestro Tumbleweed! Ed provided the unfinished, basic track...I composed and recorded the long intro using different synths and then added piano (well to the fore) and some brass arrangements along the rest of the track (no violin this time...hehe) and then did the final mixing to wrap it up as it is presented now. I hope you will enjoy it and we both appreciate your listening time and your valuable comments:) Otherwise all thanks to Ed!
Description : Initially composed intro for Malos Nolw fantasy saga. But also used by Apinax Dvd-Collections backround music.
Description : Guys this is sound track I have created for a friend who is a documentary film maker.
The film is about the distraction of Earth neutral beauty and creating concrete jungles in its place. It was really sad to see so I came up with this track.
Majority of it done with minor keys to reflect the sadness I hope you all like it.

Description : I had no particular intention doing this, but then it just came on me out of nowhere....How to make an antithesis Halloween work!? Prior to that there were no plans to make a track for the occasion, furthermore I've never been really interested in such a thing. It always seemed a bit silly to me if not outright childish. But then I remembered the Interview with The Vampire and Bram Stoker's Dracula. My gosh, there was some peculiar romanticism in there and I probably don't have to tell you twice that this must be a bait for Orlando, as is a cup of fresh young blood for a vampire...:) Furthermore I like people who are different, so I just have to like vampires who a different as well...hehe...so it should be dawning on you by now that this won't be your standard Halloween tune...haven't I mentioned "antithesis"? So...no growling zombies, midnight cemetery bells, creaking doors or any of your favourite horror sounds, although it's still a little bit darker in tone...hell yeah, vampires are still vampires...haha...but this one is mainly about a vampire desperately in love with a young lady, craving for her as a madman...I won't tell whether she's also a vampire or not, cause you might figure it out listening to the track...^^ Otherwise it was about time for me to come up with a new solo work, since I've been almost exclusively doing collabs in those past few months (which I love ofcourse)...afteral you can always ask Ed...:)^^____Happy Halloween folks!:)
Description : My son in law was wanting some music to go with some drone footage and this is what I came up with.

Drums are featured and are EZ Drummer, the rest is yours truly.

Description : a 277 second cinematic about human wars...
I know its a lot for a 17 years old boy to think about this type of things, but its me, and it cant be changed...
lemme tell you about story of the music...
first it starts from WorldWar2, one of the most sadly years for human. then after the war, you can see people are happy, kids are playing, but after some years, you can see the world is getting ready for the WorldWar3 and then you can hear the rest of the story in music...
Hi Dave! I really enjoyed listenig to this one. Super marching bassline, a little bit of guitar lines are great as well. Sometimes linear, melodic; sometimes somehow comping in a jazzier convention. Very hard and clean-out drumming.
Section from 2:39 sounds very much like a repetition of first section using different instruments only. Both sections are in the same mood, to me. Hard to explain - maybe I expected something more positive after hearing nature on the intro...
A really melancholic mood/mode of this song but so very nicely produced! Sounds very powerful. Very fine piano playing too!
Best to you, Alex
Very much enjoyed this song my friend! You bass is one fantastic sound to behold, a bit like I'm seeing it. I am not familiar with the TV series you mentioned, as I have not had cable in twenty years. I try to keep most of my viewing back about five years or more. Drugs are an odd subject, and it gets more muddled by the day. With the pharmaceutical and medical industries being one of the main guiding forces in the US, I honestly just assume that everyone I meet is on drugs. Then there is addiction, which is a word which seems to suggest "drugs" to most people. I try to see the addiction as separate, since many people can get addicted to almost anything... shopping, television, eating, exercising, pain, pleasure, and whatever you can think of. When it all comes down to it, addiction is a neurochemical reaction in an organ of the body, the brain. Most people who get off of drugs will quickly replace them with some other addiction. An addiction to anything can be disastrous, and it can also have the same effect on personality and behavior. Life as we know it would be completely alien if addiction did not exist, since it is common to all creatures on earth... I would wager that it is the largest driving factor in this industrialized, media driven life we know now. I've been watching a few episodes of "Hoarders" again, and I think this is a great example of what I'm talking about. It is pretty uncommon when drugs are even mentioned in the show, however these people are definitely addicts. I will be the first to admit that I love a good neurotransmitter cocktail, how I get it varies from day to day, and season to season... I suppose one could say that I am addicted to living. Sorry for rambling here... I guess I found very little to say about the song itself, because I know that you know it's AMAZING. There seems to be little argument about that, from reading the comments. A "signature" seems to come naturally in your work. Excellent song! Fave!
this is pretty epic bro pretty epic indeed. I have only seen a single episode of narcos but being a man of many interests, Mr Escrobar and the many delights of his native land have been of particular interest to me. I can feel the vibes man. really feel them. I dam near had to powder my nose after the first min and a half just to bring back those fond memories....i digress....
Strong arrangement and excellent instrumentation on this piece. Bass is dripping with swag and going fretless really allows a smooth flow of that low energy.
Cheers for a great track.
I always have to listen to your stuff more than once! I get lost in them. I've never seen Narcos, but this strikes me of something that could very well be heard on a television show. I don't know how to describe your work, but it makes me think of a relaxing Saturday, lounging around in the pjs, drinking coffee, reading a good book, not really worried about anything for the day. Always a pleasure to listen to your work Dave! :-)
Thanx for this track Dave!!!
I'm a teacher and social worker...we help children who use drugs or living in adversity...there are lot of work from the governments and the society in every country...imagine, I had a boy age 20 who stepped down from drugs...uhhhh...
Handshake and hats off, Danke,
Heya Dave! Been awhile. Nice bounce to the drums here man. Kinda has a hip hop grove going on. They finally converted you? Def sounds like some stuff id sample though. Kudos bud.
Great sounding bass on this track. Honestly clicked the track bc I just finished the first season of the series. :D
I play bass too, from one to another your bass playing is killer.
Ahaaa now i have found you i will stay on the track like a musical bloodhound sniffing for jazz riffs blues runs and all good things guitarwise oh yes my droogish brother this glassy guitar which lived in the first half of the track made me go back and repeat the experience. Hail to the stratocaster and its brother the telecaster. :)
good job as usual man. you never cease to amaze me when it comes to your creativity . keep that bar high my friend...
peace
Dj Swindla
Love this, great atmosphere!
Once you understand them building guitars is quite simple. I still need to build my cbg bass and violin though :p I love watching border wars, and stuff on you tube about the mexican drug cartels, very fitting tune. Never seen narcos but looking it up after this.
Really reminds me of Narcos haha
Planetjazzbass " my acoustic electric fretless 5 which I built " i stand in awe it sounds amazing. nice keys :)
Had my undivided attention from guitar note 1...thought I caught a wee touch of Spanish in the guitar but that bass walking along with everybody was just taking us on a trip...hard to avoid noticing the little embellishments that cast additional interest into the music...very cool work on the keys...it would fit perfectly in the "Thinking Persons Music" if there were such a genre....a treat for the musical mind and ears Dave...not a surprise when PJB is the artist....Bravo......Ed
You know Dave, just an aside, I just did a Halloween tune, that has that New Orleans funeral kind of drone to it on a funk basis, and I had been listening to this tune (your tune) earlier in the day before I made that tune, so there is definitely an influence in sound strategy going on subconsciously and I did not realize that till you commented back. Music is awesome sometimes ehh?
Steve
I like this one. There is a lot of space to explore in this one. Always a fan of alternative percussion. Song just takes you along at it's own pace. At 2:37 is a tasteful piano string bridge, invoking the emotion of the wreckage in the lives of people around, near or using drugs. I feel the bass line represents the never ending progression of time and is the anchor of this tune.
great work as always.
Steve
Great sound! I totally love the fx and foley in the intro. Afterwards it just gets better and better.
That kick drum is interesting, definitely goes well with the overall dark sound. I really like how open the guitar sounds and how well it works with the rest of the instrumentation. That bass is really deep, I love it's sound, there is something about that simple bass line that just drags you back into the song.
Very well done! I really like this song!
Wow, that's some tight mood music PJB, very film noir. The bass track is so f'n swanky, sounds like is it played on a fretless ? Such a killer production wise, you really schooled us with this one bro. I know we don't get to see stuff from you so frequent so this is really a treat. Big props and much thanks for the DL !
