Catching up, listening to a few of yours. No doubt in my mind you're about the most original and interesting artists on here. Hope you're good. Och aye Chris.
heya Chris, those are very kind words, and i’m humbled mate. i’ve had a trippy year and nearly all the time i get to myself’s been selfish — i was raised catholic so all my pleasures are guilty. now i feel empowered, och aye you. thanks, mate.
Hey xstokes, I like your tag about "kal-el isn't coming" lol!
At the beginning of the second movement I can almost hear Rod Serling doing the opening monologue to the Twilight Zone.
Interesting piece, great job.
that intro is fire Mike, sic drop into the drums, that grimy dirty bass rumble, great fx, that crackle i can taste the pig the contrast inthe second period is stunning, then you step it up in the final third, with a smoking vocal ad-lib all the dirt is back and cymbals, real creativity and original ideas delivering great sound too, top product Mike
hiya paul — i been working on getting better contrast and definition so your comments mean lots, mate. i’m a lucky man to have your ear, yer someone i look up to, bud.
hey bud, thanks for that. i was particularly pleased with the middle part myself. i make lots of efforts in that vein that just don’t click. i really appreciate your feedback, bro!
Almost expected to hear some Pet Shop Boy's vocals on it. Don't know why but I do, ha! To me it has the mid 90's alt rock feel to it, The The, Tom Tom Club....
you know that didnt occur to me in the making, but jesus, i guess i owe more to the pet shop boys than i realized!! thanks buddy hope things are holding up for you!
everything is relative ... what do we call dance music??? :-) I don't think so this is orthodox dance ... this is stokes's dance ... fantastic ambient in my opinion, with enormous groovy and atmosphere ...
huge onee ...
fistbump,
Danke
bro im on that yacht and Coru is with me we both letting the music direct us were we end up is anybody's guess, as long as its away from the impending WW3.
beautiful music that took me away from all the hurt for a minute and a half.x3
i did think tho, were's Mr quirky, and then ah there he is, ya didn't disappoint, love the percs the hat and crashes little elements dropping, ive missed you mate hope we see you more frequently with these dynamics
hullo Paul, man the year’s been a fucked up ride, and righto ww3 is more than just gearing up. i owe much to Coru for those 90 secs. and it’s always good for me ta hear from you, mate!
hands off my girl!
Hello, I can only agree with CC's words here! On the one hand the song has a wonderful improvised character, on the other hand it has a very melodic jazzy touch. I also like that you made that change at 0:51 without leaving the basic melody. Very impressive performance with relatively simple structures and means. But tell me: why sail? and who is this mysterious Coru?
hi Manuela, thanks for the kind words! the mysterious Coru is the mischievous artist in the comment below this one. she goes by lots of names and been sighted here on lm at random times for the last 15 yrs or so. she sent me an imaginary video of herself that became the genesis of this tune: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixw_bLVUL34
My favourite bit is around 0:35 with a great beat; after 1:05 or so the compression and distortion is a bit much for me though. The bit around 1:50 is very good (and a relief ;) )
Interesting track!
hey BB, yeah i was a little frustrated with this, your listen prompted me to keep working on this, so i really am happy for your feedback, bro. i think the current version now is pretty sick thanks to you!
Trippy. Like the ending. I haven't been checking in much but whenever I do I seem to stumble across one of yours. I'm not stalking you I promise lol. Hope you're good bro.
You have me dead to rights on being in stealth mode. Been being downright furtive, mate. But i’m mortified cuz i love getting comments and giving em and all that. I do keenly appreciate your listens, mate. I thought maybe i’d gone mainstream with this one so i’m happy with trippy.
Hope all’s good in your hemisphere!
Agree with CCC that there's a lot going on; most of it is a feast for the ears and I assume you did the distortion on purpose. Super interesting stuff!
What's up X I wasn't really feeling that distorted part but then I don't really know this genre so maybe it does go with it but I was feeling after 1.30 I guess that's just more more of my cup of tea but good job man you put a lot into this it was really digging the beatbox too
You mad bugger. The way you said everything is going to be all right made me think it probably wouldn't... Then I couldn't quite make out most of the rest unfortunately. But I think it was a positive message. Need the lyrics!
Hello, I can only agree with the previous speakers. Merely combining these soft piano sounds with this drum sound is an unusual experience. Very good this excursion into the deep musical psyche. Greetings Manuela
You know how to do it player. The ending made me want more. Classic x in my opinion. Acoustic piano set the tone of this track perfectly. Drum loop put the icing on the cake, and OfCourse the ending teased me, so I gess I have to listen again. Another good one. PEACE. T576 OUT.
