Description : A friend of mine said this beat reminded him of the oldie, Telstar by the Tornados. (Telstar reached the billboard #1 spot in 1962. Possibly the only instrumental with an organ lead that ever did.) Synthmaster, Massive, Tal NoiseMaker & Izotope Iris 2 are the synths I used. You can get synthmaster player for free from plugin boutique. They're selling Iris 2 for 10 measly bucks as well. For 10 clams, Iris 2 is some synth man.
With the "right" vocals this would be a really good 80's NDW track. It has this special driving fun and happyness style. Very energetic stuff and i like it a lot (as a chilkd of the 80's living in germany)
I def hear the telstar influence, which is the synth sound you chose. Honestly it's a classic song and to have made a song "in that vein" is pretty cool. It also reminds me of drums used in this thethe song "This is the Day".
I'm a huge fan of Matt Johnson. His first LP, Burning Blue Soul is my fave. Being compared to anything he did is a great compliment. Thanks for listening. I appreciate it.
Nah, this is not 60s, this is also an 80s song, and it's on the tip of my tongue, but I'm an old man (and a bit drunk) and can't remember what it reminds me of. Really good work!!
dunno if i’da made the telstar connect without the nod, but yeah. i’d liken it more to what was good about the ‘new romantics’ sound, less the self-serious tedium that made them a drag even tho they had some great synthpop ideas. this is fun, dark and stormy but really airy at the same time, a nice big melody and terrific instrumentation. i’m trying to decide whether to try entering the daw/vst-sphere so its cool you did a little name-dropping. digging your sounds a lot, man!
There's tons of free VSTs out there as well as plugin producers having sales. As an example, awhile back I picked up Massive for 75 bucks rather than the usual $149.00. I have a 9 plugin suite from Izotope that worked out to 6 bucks a plugin I picked up during a one day flash sale they were having. Then there's Waves, the super Walmart of VST producers. They have sales constantly. Waves is mostly FX & mixing plugins. You just gotta keep scrounging the web for the free/90% off stuff when as it happens. That's all. Thanks for listening. I appreciate it.

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.
Description : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.
Description : This song was not supposed to be the fourth track of "Diverse waves", but it finally is. Anyway it's a rock oriented track with some interesting sounds. I hope you like it. Worked in zenbeats DAW, by Roland.
Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
Description : This track was like the inhale after an exhale of aggressive industrial-electro-sludge tracks that I had put out that summer and fall. This was the more reserved, and introspective winter track. It's nothing spectacular, but I still really enjoy it. I hope you do too. Take care. V.
Description : Produced by me. Vocal by singer from Croatia.
It will be released in few months.
I wanted to offer this song to a singer from LM community but she refused me before i even offered it to her.
I was actually inspired by Richard Shekaris work in here few months ago for this song.
It was meant to be in Latin at first but we found up it's much easier to do it in Italian with almost same effect.
This is all made in FL, no live instruments played , it's all electronic.
Love and peace.
stay tuned
