I used to use a launchkey, back when the pandemic started I switched to an Arturia and loved it. I use a keylab, currently, Arturia interface, as well. I had a full size Yamaha keyboard from 2003-2007 when I was a DJ, man it was nice, and I wish I hadn't gotten rid of it. I feel inspired by this man, thanks for sharing
Wow.. I have had all 3 of those keyboards. I started with the Yamaha76 then got the launchkey49 and I currently use the Auturia49. It's been a while since I have played my 76 key piano, my controller's pretty much all I've been using for the last few years. Once I got turned on to DAWs and VST's it was a wrap lol.
I'm really glad you enjoyed the track.
I decided to forego my ancient long list of vsts LOL. I'm just using my subscriptions and I have to get a new zenology. For some reason Slate would only come back as a vst2.
Thank you for your continued support.
Had to give this another listen after reading your comment...my ears have deceived me...Lol. You played the hell out of it...still sounds like a guitar to me..Lol...haven't used VST's in a long time , currently just using sounds from my keyboards , so not aware of what's out there in the VST world of guitar sounds.....this is really even more impressive to me now.
Now Rob!!!! Now you know the eclectic extra tasty extra crispy delectable high energy and quality I must add Is full on my zone! I even zoomed in on the convo between hood and college LOL!!! I definitely remember this work. But watch out, the remastering / re-editing bug will get you. Especially if you listen to yesterdays tracks with todays ears. Thanks to you, my gotta hear a banger fix is definitely satisfied. Thanks for sharing the very best of what you do!
Mark, just when I thought it was time to come back. I accidentally deleted all of my VST3s doing housekeeping on my computer. I opened Ableton and discovered I only have 5 VST3s out of 417! I've regained consciouness and come to grips with re-building my arsenal. Actually I think I'll be fine, I've mostly been just using Waves, Slate, Ableton and a few other plug-ins that didn't get caught up in the melee.
You said something I hadn't considered; "the remastering / re-editing bug will get you" "listen to yesterdays tracks with todays ears"
I am going to be spending this holiday weekend trying to restore my VST arsenal. Most of my old and new projects are saying "Missing Plug-in" in my DAW...Ugh.
As always I appreciate you stopping by and giving my track a re-listen and the "WordzfromtheWize".
I appreciate you stopping by and giving this track a listen. Your comments have always given me encouragement to continue doing what I do, your fave is icing on the cake.
Thank you for the compliment but, There is no Guitar on this track. I meant to say something when F2F commented on the Guitar on this track. I was using the "Zenology" VST synth. During the time when I made this track I couldn't seem to find a Guitar VST that had a realistic sound/feel. I wish I could play the Guitar and Bass, I just imitate their phrasings and style on my controller. I'm always on the hunt for a good guitar and Bass VST. Currently I use Trillion for Bass and Guitar Rig7 chained with a few 3rd party effects for the Guitar. This track was from 5 years ago, I mostly only had stock Ableton stuff then. If you have any Bass or Guitar VST favorites I'm all ears lol.
Incredible fusion of styles here! The drum groove has so much human pocket and warmth, and the way those guitars, synths and vocal textures layer together creates a really rich, analog atmosphere. Supreme musicianship and composition, bro!
Thank you for stopping by and giving my track a
listen and encouraging coments.
No Guitars were harmed when I made this track lol.
When I made this track, I was trying to make a Synth preset that would be
my go-to preset for Synth. Back then I liked to use "Blue Cat"( I used it on everthing lol) in my Guitar and Synth chain but, I hadn't quite figured out a Guitar sound/feel that that worked for me back then.
Nice one man kind of reminds me a little bit the guitar play from the movie back to the future when Michael J. Fox was performing on stage at the high school. Dope work
Well if it is reproducible it's not weird. It's got those solos of the guitar that make it with your character and this is awesome for a track. The electric piano is just spectacular, it carries the harmonies so well, the bass is well balanced and the vocal stuff just fits very well.
It is a sample of creativity that uses so nicely imagination. Well done.
Best regards, Anthony
Forgot to click post (old age lol)
I really appreciate you listening to my track and for your encouraging comments. Occasionally when I play all the instruments on a track I have difficulty getting them to glue together properly. I find myself obsessing over each instrument to the point of analysis paralysis. I was, finally able to just let it go.
Yeah, I like this. Sounds like it's straight out of some drug fuelled 70's film, kinda smooth and mellow with crazy guitar antics thrown in for good measure, just to shake things up, very psychedelic.
hello Robbie, so good to here you back here, its been a long while, and this is a classy piece, its weird in the greatest way tho, the vox chops were well placed great synth work and the guitar was cool also, i hope your well brother, is this you coming back or just a quick visit, all the same its still good to listen to you again i hope your in good health and its also great to know your still with the music, you were around at my very start and gave me advice and encouragement, Star Travels comes in to my mind lol.
What's up Paul, the last time we talked you gave me some profound insight on writing a track with "Rappers" that gave me a perspective on writing a Rap track that I havn't forgotten (Thanks)
My health is ok I guess (for an old guy lol)
I really appreciate you stopping by and giving my track a listen and "Fav"...
Ok Rob! I hear you. Phenomenal how your signature synth sound stays on the cutting edge. I'm totally loving the heavy undertones used to shore up the mix. A whole smooth vibe. Thoroughly enjoyed what I heard. Unquestionably Faved.
What's up Mark, I really appreciate your continued encouragement for my musical journey. You've been there from day one.
The "Fave" is icing on the cake.
I think this song is amazing. It brought back vague memories of the 70s; dark venues where people sway slowly to mysterious music and smoke big, strange-smelling, hand-rolled cigarettes ;)
Thanks for sharing :)
Yep... What you said.lol... Thank you for stopping by and giving my track a listen, as well as for your "spot on" comments. Thanks for the "Fave" as well.
Hello DanMed,
I must have forgot to click "post reply" 2 days ago. (my age is showing lol)
I really apprecieate your stopping by and giving my track a listen, encouraging comments and "Fave".
I wasn't sure my "Genre Neutral" style of music would be recieved or accepted. Your comments restored my confidence. Thanks..
I've been using those female vocal samples so long, I feel like they are part of my production. The psychedelic period in music was definitely my favorite.
Thank you for your listen and Fave...
