Description : EDIT: Made a new mix and this one sound better and a bit faster!

EDIT 2: Added more reverb to Amy

This track gives me the chickenpocks... why?
Because my daughter Amy did the vocals on this one.
I know it's not the best quality vocals but I have to start somewhere to make this experience one of mine...

I used a bit of Neptune but she does not really needs it...

Composed, Lyrics, Melody, by Me!
Vocals by Amy
Mixed and Mastered entirely in Reason 5-Record 1.5...

Yoyo Propellerheads for this one in a million combo!!!

See this as a learning job...

I wish every one a sounding 2011!!!!

This song is awesome man! Those vocals add such an amazing touch! Everything sounds real nice spacey, seems like you added allot of padding, awesome!

The only thing I can add is perhaps a bit more build up/down between elements?

Hey TCAS

Nice piece, good intro, love the beat and bassline to this one driving piece along very nicely, nice pads/synths, your daughter has done a great job on vocals, pick up a couple of clicks at end of vocals well sounds like they are on the vocals? could be wrong there, apart from that this is one very good listen, credit to you both for sure, hopefully we will get more from you both in the future, look forwad to that...fav'd...Peace n Respect to you and Amy...Estefano...

Nice Chilled Intro. I can feel it building into something nice. I like the arpeggiated saw synth. Your daughter has a nice voice. Her vocals add a certain haunting feel to this track. I believe that you still have to have a good voice before you do a vocal processing. Neat that it sounds like a computer singing. This song has a very powerful message. Overall a very nice chilled song. A fav for this one. Thanks for sharing.

nice thumper agree with most the posts the vocals could be fxed a little more, nice arrangemnt seems to flow good... mayb a little more umpf to it. like needs some punch. reason tends to lack in that area imo.

Hey TCAS,
pretty nice track you have put together.
love the arp and gate youve used.

my only concern is the vocal, it could use some more reverb.
but thats just my opinion.

keep up the good work!

TCAS replied Unknown
Thanx,
I added some more reverb to her voice.

Hi TCAS, i think this track is quite well put together, the main riff of the synth_melody is simple @ its best, & thats one reason why i think the track works so well, Somtimes Simplicity is the KEY < ;) The vocals are sweet aswell, thanks to your Little daugther, i see a *star* in the making ! keep the Faith:)
TCAS
TCAS replied Unknown
Hi Tomahawk...

Yes, simplicity was the (lazy) key here...
This track is one big vocal experiment.
I wanted to know how I could do vocals on my own... No studio, just a mic and a lot of retakes of the lyrics :-P

Used only a mic with a headphone for Amy to listen to the track when she was singing.
It's fun to making music this way... a lot to explore!

And... she's a real producer too because she had her own mind on this track... I think it's too slow (I had a 145bpm version but she did not liked that)..

Thanx,
TCAS

Description : I really liked ABOE Musics (looperman member) cinematic track so i give it a go and after many hours in last few days this is it.
My RMX of his great track. Maybe i tweak it more in future.
Really enjoyed in making it.
It's Trance-ish House i guess LOL.
Enjoy!
Love and peace.

Description : this song is the last i created. I wanted to remix the famous "the chase" from the movie "midnight express, i love the original sound! i don't know if the result is enough good but i'm proud to say that all has been composed by myself: the instrumental parts, the arrangements, melody, recording and mixing. I hope you'll enjoy it! don't hesitate to let a comment after listening :)

This is what you get when i try to make a Free Radical song.
In the end, it does not sound like something I've ever heard from him.
But it was, after all, a try.
Thus, it is not completely different, ´cause i have not sung this time.
And it is electronic music but .....

However, I like the resulting song. Hope you too. Only 1 sample was used here - Anubis-Anubis-Loop all the synth´s are played by me and i added some drumsounds with powerdrums2 played by myself Comments are sure welcome.

Description : Another attempt in my continuing efforts to learn how make a trance track. Is intended to have a vocal doing the melody. Would try to find a singer but need to work out lyrics first. For this track I tried to make the melody not too repetitive. I limited it to four bars max of the same melodic phrase.

Description : This is a remix with permission, which goes to a contest. Basically progressive house with trance elements. The download option will be avaiable after the contest closes.
Update: mastering and mixing redone! it should work, well hope so. Update 2: now it must work! no more compression (at leas I think), not really satisfied with the waveform, but maybe it`s okay! Thanks for the help people!

Description : It is time to max up your volume and make this party a real one with Infinium.This tune is made to be looped infinite timefor some epic hours in a party. this is why there are no proper intro or outro in this one.Also this tune is progressive maybe for some "rave". Anyway please enjoy the last track I made for this years (2014).Sorry i would describe more this track but I have a party right now !! :D

Description : Would you be at all surprised if I told you this was a Trance edit of And Then She Left Me Again? Didn't do a whole lot to it. Just changed the bpm to 138, swapped out the drums and slightly changed the drop. That's all I've had time to do since I uploaded the house/techno version. Originally this was going to be DnB edit but I got tired of trying to find the perfect kick and percs
