Your best yet. The piano sounds superb except for a small bit after 1:06. Sounds a lil out of tune. Loving the break down with the drums, the snare that hits every other bar or so is nice. I like that wave like pad after 5:15. Spaced out vibes. Would of also liked to hear a bit more done with the drums. Otherwise, really like this track, excellent job. peace

1:08 I am jammin all the keys with intense emotive expression, and yes................. I hit a wrong note...good ear. I am not a trained Pianist so this was new territory for me back in 2003. But I like that there is this fault in the composition. I may revisit this in a modern way so who knows what will come of the modern mix in the future. As Always thanks for your insight and appreciate the props.

Great track you got here Steve! The piano is so beautiful and the vocals in the back gives a hunting but beautiful feeling! Even though this song is an old one, it still has a new feel to it which means it was ahead of it's time when you first created it. As always thanks for the listen, it was a pleasure to hear this wonderful track and I'm glad you was nice enough to share!

hi Steve, just to let you know I am enjoying this again. much beauty and very cool old-styled synth vibes here. I wish I had more time now but I think I should come up with remix soon cause this is just an amazing track. Alex

Very cool and complex piece here! My favorite part has to be the avant garde styling of the piano in the intro, amazing use of intervals and the like to evoke a feeling! Very interesting synth sounds and samples you've used in here as well. Definitely one of the coolest chill out songs I've heard! Deep and thoughtful. Very good stereo field and frequency range throughout. Thank you for sharing this beauty! Fave and DL!

crucethus replied 7th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago
Thanks Spiv, No samples, just sequences and synths. I am happy you have liked this and grateful you acknowledge it. Avant Garde is in both of our souls sometimes and we both need to get it out from time to time.
Always appreciate your words.

If I could fly...something like this would be the accompaniment...gliding smoothly...then swooping up in the current...the special attractions of the landscape that grab the attention for a few moments....its a great trip Steve....wonderful mind pictures painted by one hell of a fine artist.....Ed (PS:your versatility is showing again)

crucethus replied 7th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago
Thank you Ed, I had a moment of artistic indulgence and I started to realize that my work around here may not be mainstream, but is a appreciated as a "Musicians musician". For that I am humbled and extremely grateful. Versatility is just my wanting to explore every nook and cranny of music. That curiosity keeps me going.
Slainte my friend.

I like this one, a lot. It is a nice blend of elements. I don't want to take away from the creativity of it by any means, but it almost has an Angelo Badalamenti meets Ray Lynch meets Dead Can Dance vibe. That classic Crucethus duality between light and dark isn't quite as prominent in this one. I can hear bits of a darker undertone in some spots, but that may just be me. Mostly, though, it's just a good uplifting track. Like a leaf skating on the breeze. Nice work, man.

Take care.

Angelo Badalamenti - "Nostalgia" is an amazing song and a very cool comparison to his work. I am Honoured.

Oh it's there just very subtle, but it's there.

Or like a Baby Bird leaving it's nest and it's mother talking to it.

Lots of cool packed into this one Cru. Love the big piano intro and how you transistion into the pads and arps there at 1:38. I was just about to drift into a nice chilled trance...ahhhh . Then WHAM ! You slapped me back into consciousness with that metal whip and bang thing! Very unexpected. Really sweet composition here though with some very interesting twists. I liked it.

Loving the intro. The piano and the melody are great.
I don't think I've heard you a chillout piece before and i'm enjoying it. There's plenty of ambience, some nice pads and trippy drumming with some excellent ride cymbals.
Well done

it is great to be able to experience the different moods of this music when I realize you made it just using those synths - I love the sound-image!
my favourite part is from 4:41 when voco soloing starts - it could last even longer...
Your track definitely reminds of the older electronic which I am really enjoying - unlike something I can hear in the mainstream nowadays. It was a good therapy. Thank you. Alex
crucethus
crucethus replied 6th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago
Alex, always spot on with the instrumentation. It is a synth sound from the Korg EA-1 processed through the MS2000 Vocoder.
Thanks as always.

The 2:30 mark is what did it for me - when you brought the beat together. Very slick. Would have loved to hear a little more of that piano over that. All-in-all - cool piece.

crucethus replied 6th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago
Thanks mightymemphis. I agree I should have added more piano work. something i might play around with in the future as I now own an actual piano instead of using the Yamamha grande piano from the RM1x.

Didn't start as good as this piece is. Very Smooth and emotional track. I like this a lot.

P.S. I was rating the intro, now I have to listen some more.

(Thumbs UP!) Incredible, actually.

The mix is on point. I really do like this though. Thank you for making this track.

crucethus replied 6th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago
True MattBeater, it is a clumsy, but emotional start. Sort of how a small bird in a nest clumsily flies out of the nest. Then the whip sounds are the beating of wings until the break at 5;30 when are young chick soars into the sky. (the vocoded synth solo is the mother bird encouraging her young with Bird-talk). Music used to tell a story.

very soothing chill vybes in the beginning followed by a love-step feel type of beat. very new very hip . One might even call this Love-Trap . This is some real deal type stuff where you are headed! Congrats on this lovely composition. Definite great stuff here. Take care -EazyBeatz-
crucethus
crucethus replied 4th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago
Thanks Easy. Song was originally recorded in 2003 I just remastered it (Originally the piano I used was from the Yamaha RM1x and I filtered it too much with Cutoff and Resonance, so a low pass filter and eq, later I re-engineered it. Love-Trap I like that name but interesting that you find it a current sound. My more experimental works like this tend to be years ahead of being accepted. But I also understand what you mean especially with the sub bass , glitchy drums and the metalic percussion.
Thanks for the comments.

hi again, very nice one -I am liking the percussions in the intro and all very gentle drums throughout. The 'frog-like' kind of synth bassline definitely reminds me of your 'Bedroom Games'. I like the placement of instruments in the recording spectrum too. Very fine synth lead from 2:37 - nice played, something like Tangerine Dream - a kind of a guitar almost!
Very soft and calming sounds! Alex
crucethus
crucethus replied 19th Oct 2014 - 11 years ago
Thanks for listening Alex.
You are correct about Bedroom games. Sensuality pre-dates bedroom games by a bit, but was my attempt at capturing the glory sound of sensuality. I have a radio review where the announcers critique the song and say that I play my synths like a guitarist and can evoke emotion through the usage of my synths.
glad U liked!
