Great to hear the real deal on LM!

hi Scott, I enjoyed this nice track. really interesting use of the mellotron machine which can quite good imitate some orchestral strings effects here. it sounds very nice with the voice (1:08). Vocals have also some interesting reverb added and that works perfectly with all these mellow sounds from 2:37. really nicely done. Greetings,
Alex

Yes! Really liked this track, Scott. Great drum work, of course. I assume that was all done on your Alesis set? I really liked the Duane Eddy type guitar. Didn't sound like a VST at all. You did a great job on that one. The mellotron pad part had some glissandos that sounded very George Harrison. Loved that treatment. Yes, vocals were a bit dry, so perhaps some reverb would be good. Or, in the alternative, make them more more intimate in the mix. Not sure how to do that with effects, though. Might have needed a different mic arrangement and different vocal delivery. Anyway, I'd experiment. Who did the vocals, by the way? Very nice. An excellent departure from jazz and funk. Always good to get off the beaten path periodically.

Hey Eric,

Glad you like it. That Duane Eddy guitar is actually the M-tron. I took it down an octave. The vocals were an unknown pella I found some time ago. I collect stuff for future use and I can never remember where I get them.

Glissandos...I haven't heard that term since my college days!

Cheers,
Scott

Absolute unique track Scott!

Instant fav from the first second...like everything in the track...the 'crazy' drum rhythm from 0.37, the low toned guitar like from a Tarantino soundtrack, the cinematic felt synth voice and play and I really like that Lady's voice (a bit more reverb on it?)
James Bond soundtrack song...that's what flashed in...

Huge respect and thankx for this delicacy :-)

Danke

ScottB55 replied 24th Sep 2014 - 12 years ago

Thanks allot, Danke. So glad you like it and downloaded it.

The drum rhythm is my Alesis drum kit using it with a double pedal. Most of my career I only use one kick drum pedal, and about 2 years ago started using a double pedal. The low toned guitar is actually a Mellotron VST using the guitar setting and lowering it an octave. I think you're right, a little reverb on the vocals wouldn't hurt.

Again, thanks and hope you enjoy it in the future.

Cheers,
Scott

this main riff has definitely a latin feel. Great funk interlude starting from 1:53 - very nice theme-transformation!
many interesting turnarounds and reprise. Simply great!

Scott you nailed it bro.
Its loaded with all the classic sounds and its got the spy vibe down to a "T". Its a perfect theme for a cartoon or one of those spoof spy movies where the main characters are animals. I like how you changed it up with the various sections.
Very clever and expertly done. I really enjoyed this.

ScottB55 replied 9th Sep 2014 - 12 years ago

Thanks all, Neo. Glad you like it and took the time to let me know. Your comment is much appreciated.

Quincy Jones and the boys, with a bit of Jethro Tull thrown in with the Flute...
Jones didn't write them all but I'm sure he was one of the leaders in that
style...Done for TV. Cop show...Way back in the day...

Outstandingly done....

Peace...TG.

ScottB55 replied 8th Sep 2014 - 12 years ago

Indeed...Quincy did a slew of TV and movie themes.

Thanks for checking me out and leaving your comment.

LOL! of course the feel at the beginning is so James Bond! nice! and the breathy flute is a great choice. honestly can't pin flute to a movie but is VERY genre. you are hiting it! also the brass writing - this is very American TV in the '60s and '70s (hawaii five-o, etc.) nice work! all the best!

ScottB55 replied 8th Sep 2014 - 12 years ago

Thanks, MS. Yeah, everything you mentioned is pretty much what I was going for. I was also going for something that sounded like you'd heard it before, but with it being a totally original track. (Does that make sense?)

Cheers,
Scott

Bonjour Scott ....

Memories .... memories. All the ingredients are here to give nostalgia .... A highly sophisticated track you've designed, with the sounds of a bygone era. It's really excellent. Glad to hear you again ....

Feel cool just listening to it. Very good sounding sax. Excellent transitions as it progresses. Guitar is prominent in the mix and sits effortlessly. Top production, peace

ScottB55 replied 20th Aug 2014 - 12 years ago

Thanks allot, Gramo. To be honest, I didn't think too many people would like this one, but so far, it's the most downloaded and commented on. Guess you can never tell what people will like.

Much appreciated!

Cheers,
Scott
