Description : Greets again. This was somethin I did about a month ago for a project in my Basic Speaking/Listening class. Pertaining to my Informative speech topic- Digital Audio Workstations & Productions. Since my time was limited the teacher suggested that I make a 30 second song for the class (I shot a lil past that making it 46 seconds)...-...-... I'm putting this one in Fusion, because I tried creating a song that everyone in the class would enjoy (blending orchestral/cinematic strings at the intro/outro with breakish electro beats, ambient bass, progressive guitars, and digitized vocals by yours truly- that I'll prolly add to my loops here later).
UPDATE- I've gone and reworked this piece, extending it out to just over 4 minutes. This is like a love letter to my favorite movie of all time, Tron. As well as a nod to the new film coming out Friday... Who else is going to see it? All of the vocals are me (with various effects thrown on). I may go n tweek this mix later, dunno. At the mo' I'm gonna go with this vers just to see what others think of it. Alright, well I'm headin off now. Enjoy!

This track evokes so much imagery, I would be tempted to call it cinematic. This is only enhanced by the variation in mood you bring about withe changes in instrumentation you make. Vox doesn't hurt either :-)

Really nice listen, well enjoyed

Cinematic might be a fair categorization, because this was made for both a general audience (the class) and was a large homage to the film, Tron. Funny thing that, because I have the most fun doing tracks like these (maybe its in my blood). Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Man, you come from the other side of the street with your musical thoughts, haha. I don't really think I could produce something like this, I just don't think this way, ha. It's very creative with a cool intro. Nice breaks and the intro and voice samples in the track worked nicely with this. Your synths are too cool. The arrangement is well thought out and interesting for sure.

I don't isten to much music like this but this was a treat!

Great job D!!

Naw mate. Nothing really radical needed for something like this. Just laid another idea (the new Tron movie) on top of the first one (class assignment). Try it with one of your own projects some time.
Meanwhile, the original theme (orchestral-breaks) stayed constant all throughout. In fact, the Tron thing came about via the intro vox I did months ago (dunno why I made 'em back then, but they sure came together with the film nod idea). So I just threw in a few more voc-sams in to act as sequence breaks. Which I was kinda iffy on (the overly deliberate breaks between), but I said whatev and ran with it. Glad ya dug it mate. Later on!

I'm lovin the groove on this one! Had to listen a second time! I like the bass a lot, and those strings are awesome! Those digitized vocals are interesting, do they say something? Really nice work!

Yeah, it's groove reflects my wanting to attract the members of that class to get interested in DAWs and music production. I rolled the vox myself one morning before class (I believe I used two channels of autotuned effects... I'd haveta look, haha). And they say- "Break it down" & "Break". Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Yeah, for a school project this was one of the shorter things I've had to do. Truth be told I would've loved to have this playin for the entire speech. As for the other, nada prob mang. Figure it'd be fun for others to play with. Glad ya dug it. Lates!

Wow top notch mix of style with the orchestral and breakbeat, cool beat as well. Would love to hear this fleshed out to like 3 or 4 minutes, just as it started it ended, bummer -haha I know it had to be 30 seconds but damn you are on to something with this one, If you feel the urge this would be a great full length track indeed. I'm off to check out your other stuff. Nice work. Cheers!

I hear ya mate. I've been tempted to pick this one up to stretch it out some more. As I said somewhere else here, when you listen to this on repeat it just keeps comin at ya- your mind tends to get lost with it the first several times. And even if I don't, I'm super stoked to find a successful blend of those styles. Glad ya dug it. Lates!

This is very cool for several reasons. The fusion of several different traditions WORKS. Seriously, what about orchestral/cinematic strings suggests any kind of compatibility with breakbeats? It's a bit like examining hydrogen and oxygen independently and somehow predicting water in their union.

I also love that it's a total subversion of the academic model (says the recovering English prof). You've taken a text based class (grapholectic or print tech) and done a project based on orality/aurality. See how cool that is?

I love your bass lines. I need to revisit your loops and look through these in particular. I'd have given you a 4.0 for this one - hope your teacher did!

Sorry mate, these weren't ones I uploaded (though I could email 'em to ya if ya wanted me to). Alright, as for the track- It's fun sometimes to just throw things together to see what they sound like. The strings were actually the 3rd element (4th thing) added to the song. And they worked like a charm oddly enough. As for college- eh, I'm currently torn. There are elements of it that I love and others that I had (the class number hints at one of them). All of that would best be saved for an email I suppose (so if interested, there ya go). Back to the song- glad ya dug it. Lates!

One acapella by Elven Voice, one loop by GenaMusic... So separate but something common...I decided to merge them and to leave them as clean as I could. Just added some synth pads and percussion.

Description : My third rap song. Still not entirely sure how I got here, but I'm having fun with it. This time, I brought along my alter ego, Cool Grandpa. He's got more swagger than I do and helps bring a little street cred (although not much) to the operation.

I did update the vocal mix based on feedback and I think that was a good call by gixxie. Vox is stronger now.
