Los Visitantes

I don't know matrix but I've heard of it. take it as a complement and thanks for the positive comment Balance21. Really appreciate it. see you in cyberhood. Dan

Yea - I think I could start just going with electronic I agree. I remember new age but that was a little less 'weird' and more about ambience, possibly a kind of 'therapeutic' genre also. Glad you liked this buddy. Thanks.

Hey Ed. Well I always joke that I was sleeping during theory class so had to invent my own system when I started writing. But yea - I don't try to tie in with genre for most part. Having said that, I am thinking about a few steps back for next track into something more conventional with more emphasis on sweet sounds, blends, and listener's experience. Thanks very much for awesome comment. Regards - Dan

Hey Shatner - glad you had a chance to check this. There were quite a few 'personalities' to manage in this track but I was pretty happy with the result. Irony is that with less one can sometimes do more and I think I may back off to fewer voices, ideas, etc., and more emphasis on the ultimate sonic experience for the user. Looking forward to checking out your latest. Regards - Dan

Hey Fl4zh

I can see the flying drone also. A lot of drones in the track of course. The little character 'hits' could be aspects of the drone's 'personality'.

Thanks for the comment and checking out the track. Look forward to hearing something of yours very soon.

Regards,

Dan

Hey Pete.

I don't even remember offhand the FL Studio synth I started with for the sounds. There was quite a bit of editing and effecting. Ultimately I cut snips from the waveforms to create samples.

I appreciate the positive comments a lot.

Thanks, brother.

Hey Steve

Yea, you got it right. The idea is to model some music for abstract art and hopefully motivate some interest in current Winter Contest on the site.

I guess this piece is avant garde. I always joke that I was half asleep every morning in music theory class so now, when I want to compose, I have to make up my own systems! Well - despite my bad behavior in music school there is a lot of classical influence.

anyway - I'm very happy you had a chance to check this one out and thank you for the comment.

Thanks for checking it out Jamid. I liked the idea of a strong statement at the very outset before getting into the groove of it. Thanks for responding to my message also! Talk to you later. Dan

hey jody! yea - spiv and i are buds and he has contributed some loops to a few of my tracks. can't say a true collab cause he was just giving me something for my concept as opposed to a joint concept but anyway. . . I am glad you found something interesting in this. There is a new mix posted and one more probably in the morning then onward and upward. thanks very much for visiting. Dan

Now that you mention it I can see that. Happy New Year Burt.

Thanks, Bleep.

I don't know FSOL but will check it out. The 'weird' genre is a catch-all, of course, but it seems to be mine more often than not. Appreciate your stopping by. Later. Dan

i'm scared of those drones, but gotta get over that. yea - i'm hoping to expand this, refine a bit more. glad you were liking it though. appreciate it very much. regards.

Hi, Kinmadi. I am famous for writing music that sounds like it belongs in video games. I have speculated that it is partly that I am about 30 years behind with the synths and the electronic production techniques, so my music is unavoidably old school sounding. But at the same time I have this music conservatory background so I write this inscrutable esoteric stuff that does sometimes manage to sound original. I am glad you liked it kingmadi. Thanks very much for the comment. Dan

I am not sure what the morphing is but I'm glad you liked it, Michael. I will hopefully continue to refine this one, to expand it, balance it out musically. I was in a hurry to have something 'finished' to share out. Great to have you stop by. Later. Dan

Thank you for the Fave! Much appreciated. I was dead set on understanding sampling in FL Studio better and I think I got a bit further down the road with that goal in this project. I hope I can scrub this one, but who knows. The demands of online promotion compete with creative work. Hard to strike the balance. Thanks for the positive feedback Pat.

thanks for checking it out. cheers.

Hey Burt thanks. yea - I'm gonna keep working to expand this for sure. I am doing a short video with the art that inspires this, hence the short version for now.
