This has a great industrial feel to it, it sounds like music made for robots I like it. If I would have heard this somewhere else I would known it was you, you have a unique artistic flair.

Hey thanks for stopping by to listen! Definitely has an industrial edge to it doesn't it. I wish I had some robots to play the song for! I'm happy that you enjoyed this one and recognized it as a signature track. Thanks for your kind words!

A big smile came to my face at about 18 seconds when the first synth came in!! Sure is different but I like it! Happy, bouncy little beat, nice track Spiv!

you have an interesting way of arranging your part's. i'm all about ur style what ever that may be??????
Spivkurl
Spivkurl replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Yep, I don't really arrange things in a traditional manner, which is part of why my stuff doesn't fit the normal genres. Not sure what my style is either, but I'm very pleased you could get into this track! Thanks very much for your reviews!

I know this guy! The Merchant Honest Abe and his Entheogenic Emporium. Here in the freefall market of Anak Brunei's Obsidian Palace you can find the purist Clarity within 200,000 miles.

The tuning is really strange, but like most unfamiliars you get used to it quickly. By the 3rd play makes sense. The 4th for me got the favorite, and I get it.

I think next to aforementioned "Clarity" this is my favorite track of yours.
Spivkurl
Spivkurl replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Heh, any merchant with an entheogenic emporium sounds good to me! This title was actually referring to wine merchants, as I was craving wine big time when I started this song. More specifically what I had in mind was the wine merchant in the episode of The Avengers titled "the secrets broker", and wishing I could buy my wine from him.

I'm glad you could get used to the tuning of this track! For some reason modal keys are what I use most often when playing guitar, it seems to connect the ancient with the modern to my ears.

Thanks very much for the fave and the entertaining review! Also thank you for referring to "Clarity", it's nice to have a song remembered!

gotta start by saying I'm not a big fan of trance far too happy for my tastes... for me the whole track seems a bit sparse maybe it needs some kinda heavier pad underneath it... because what you've got there at the moment doesn't seem to be covering.. the over all production is nice but needs a little tweaking here and there which I suspect you know that already being as good as you are my friend.. keep 'em coming brother
Spivkurl
Spivkurl replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
I see what you mean, definitely. The track being sparse was for the most part intentional. I will take your comments under advisement if I go back and rework this track. I appreciate the honest feedback!

nice melodies man
beat seems a little weak (comparing it to major artists - the only way to get a good feel as to where you're at) maybe compress it, I really don't know how to make a good trace beat so maybe listening to me isn't such a good idea lol
sounds good though - almost reminded me of Barbie Girl - way back in the day lol
Keep it up

Spivkurl replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Haha, Barbie Girl! I remember that track! Funny that this reminds you of that! I can see what you mean about the beat, I'm still learning how to make a hot trance beat. Thanks for the helpful and entertaining review, it's much appreciated!

Hello friend! It makes me really happy that you liked this one enough to fave it! It's been slow to get reviews on this track, so I though maybe it was no good! Your reviews always help me feel better about things though! This one was really fun and challenging to create, so it's good to get some feedback! Thank you very much for taking time out to listen and review!

Quite a bouncy track with a funny melody running throughout. Very Europoean in style with some catchy hooks. Nice progression when the pads kick in. ;) --Davey--

Spivkurl replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hey, thank you for returning the favour of a review! European style eh? That's cool! I'm glad you liked the pads too, I think that's one of the strong points of this track. Thanks very much for your comments!

You're too kind! Of all my new tracks, it's this one I wasn't too sure about, but your comments make me feel a little better about it! I'll definitely be doing some more trancey stuff in the near future, since it's fun to make... though I still don't think it's what I'm best at. I really appreciate your kind words and the fave! All is well over here, and I hope you are well too!

i like this one alot. i really like the contrast between the brightness of the organ and the dark bass line. those rolls are nice. good stuff brother.
Spivkurl
Spivkurl replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hey, glad you liked this one! I agree that the organ and bass are a nice contrast, they feel like they wouldn't normally be used together. Thanks for your kind comments friend!

I take it this sudden profusion of work from you signals the end of the Hiatus - great track and great to see you back doing what you do!

Hey Spiv, this is different, the key that this is in is freaking me out, lol, some of it almost sounds out of key. Is that the C phrygian mode you described, never heard of that. It is different sounding that's for sure. The guitars sounds nice.

Spivkurl replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
I agree the key is a little freaky on this one! I had to find a scale that contained C# C and A# to go with the bass line, and the phrygian seemed to work. The lead synth I think might deviate from that scale a bit, but only in a blue note sort of way. Glad you liked the guitar, I wish I was better at playing it...heh. Thanks for your review my friend!
