pretty trippin... I love electronic music, some good guitar stuff tricklin thru here... if I was setup properly I'd wanna do a remix but alas... nice work, if you make a more beat or guitar driven version, please let me know. Neal Visher @DesignByNV

long time no see neal, hope all is well. glad you enjoyed this enough to want to remix it...unfortunately the file is gone with an old laptop I spilled beer on :(

I'll keep you in mind for future endeavors, though!

Cheers

There's a lot of sounds going at the same time, but the good side of it is that you managed to mix them all into one great sounding track! Could use some vocals to fill in some empty spaces

cheers!

thephilosofist replied 22nd May 2017 - 8 years ago

not a bad idea, this was definitely meant to be an instrumental but maybe I will put some vocals over something like this in the future.

thanks for listening and I'm glad you enjoyed :)

Cheers

Hey there mate...in a word tres cool electronica!!....I really like the metamorphic nature of this track it's almost like a musical kaleidoscope in places, the transitions appear and disappear going through a mini black hole in the arrangement and yet there's always the after image of a vestigial melody, ghosts in the machine territory for sure, at 1:16 there's an interesting apparition and for a moment I thought there'd be a solid groove starting, but you eased off into the end game, could have been much longer but I really enjoyed it as is.....cheers Dave :)

thephilosofist replied 22nd May 2017 - 8 years ago

thanks dave! yeah I'm working on some pieces that are more developed these days, this was definitely a perhaps too concise compositional experiment. but I'm glad you enjoyed it for what it was.

cheers to you as well

Man, this is straight up emotional music. I haven't heard anything that sounds like this. It kind of sounds like psychedelic hip hop! I love it! I have bought a KORG Volca Sample, because I am poor, so I hope to make some awesome beats with my sample playback device. Someday, an MPC1000 would be really cool to have. I really like the bleeps and bloops in between the notes :) Keep on jamming!

thephilosofist replied 21st May 2017 - 8 years ago

Thanks Allochtune, I appreciate the listen. Psychedelic hip hop is one way to describe it for sure, lol.

Bleeps and bloops were created on the slim phatty, pitch LFO on the bassline and automating the octave of the oscillator :) -- (if you were curious) --

Let me know how you like the volca sample. I hear they're a neat tool. Btw, take a listen to the Brainfeeder label if you want to hear more stuff like this...

I don't really understand this kind of sound mate so can't really comment.
Wouldn't know where to start!
Thank you for visiting mine though.

Glad you took a listen; and no problem. I enjoyed it.

Matt! Glad to see you posting some new music on the Loop. I haven't made much new music in a very long time. Inspiring to hear some from you. Always been a fan of your work. Hope things are well. Peace NP.

thephilosofist replied 3rd Feb 2017 - 8 years ago

glad to see your name on the loop again, I've only recently started posting again here for feedback. I am doing pretty well, still got some health issues I'm dealing with but life is good. If you're ever in the NYC area hit me up for coffee! would love to chat again

Cool man, took me awhile to zone in on the pitch shifting vocals but they work well within the arrangement...I'm glad your taking steps to change (though obviously I have no idea on your personal situation nor would I ever deem to pass judgement) just happy to hear your back being positive and creative.... it's all we can really hope for on this ship of fools called planet Earth. cheers Dave

thephilosofist replied 4th Jan 2017 - 8 years ago

Thanks, Dave. Yes, positivity and creativity were two things lacking in my life -- glad to be back in action!

Cool track and good to see you back! Interesting track, lot's of neat sounds and effects. The ending was great. Logic has some awesome sounds, I should get into it more, impressed with what you did here with it. The transition in the middle was a nice touch. Well done!

Wayne

thephilosofist replied 17th Aug 2015 - 10 years ago

Hey, thanks for listening! Logic has such an awesome tape stop/speed up effect -- that's really the only "effect" I used from logic besides reverbs and delays. Lots of tweaking the "noise" knob on my synths!

Glad you enjoyed. Cheers!

on Circatree - Iris by thephilosofist

Hey this is a very unique and original sounding track! I enjoyed listening thoroughly. It's good to see you stop by the community! What kind of hardware went into making this one? It has that slightly dirty feel that I enjoy in a downtempo track. Very cool work! Fave!

thephilosofist replied 17th Aug 2015 - 10 years ago

Microkorg, MPC500 (now gone from my studio -- replaced with a 1K), Yamaha AN200, and an E-mu vintage keys.

Thanks so much! Glad to see you around :)
