Thanks again man. lol I have actually started to try and redo some of it. I already have a few versions and this one up is actually not my favorite mix. It's hard to get the real sounds I want right now, (lack of monitors, what else!!) but will send you a better version if i finish that project. i mean when i finish haha. Thanks tho for reading the description. I know it's alot, and i should try to summarize. It definitely has a place as a unique track here as far as I have seen. That I like. :)
Agree with the other sentiments.
Humn... Just trying to think and maybe offer something of value?
You know what I was thinking might sound cool?
Is on that sweet rhodes piany, if you were to maybe add some effects and start just messing with it's voice digitally?
Very cool. Reminds me of the backrooms at clubs when you are sick of the happy hardcore and need a cool place to chill out.
REALLY like that kick pattern that .. it's weird man.. It fits VERY well in the driving trance pattern.
You play piano correct?
Anyhow if you ever come over to the deadlands I would love to hang.
I swear I am just inches from dropping everything and moving to Seattle lol
Thanks Abe! I'm gonna mess around with this some more. I think I'm gonna put in some more breaks with white noise and sweeps. Make it sound more like a house track. I'll see how that goes. It'd be fun to hang out some time. ;-)
Good god, I think I like hearing stuff like this than my drivel lol.
Amazing.
I actually did a really fun collaboration with BlumeChoon with the same pella and we did this crazy dnb guitar thingy, so this is just a total cognitive trip for me!
lol
Dude, I am exceptionally impressed with your extra editions on the drums.. man... awesome!
Hey wassup!
Yeah, I checked out the pen work on youtube... that was damn impressive. I have seen a couple cats do that kinda thing, ... Definitely dug that.
I dug the blues progression turned major that you used.
Definitely started grooving a bit more once ya thru the other beat on top of the other (which I always think is a good idea mixing two different rythmic variation)
Kinda curious as to what you use?
I think there's some things about whatever you are using that perhaps you should look into?
I would recommend experimenting with automation if you haven't already?
It's one of those things.. that after you "learn" automating tracks... your tracks just start to bloom. (endless possibilities and reiterations)
I definitely think you got something goin' for you.
Keep it up!
Thanks alot man. Glad to hear someone appreciates my pointless talent :). Yes I've actually just recently discovered automation after making this track. And yes sir I do use FL. Thank you for the input!
Love the super fast delay intro thingy.
Great melody.
Want to steal it.
K.
Here's my thoughts.
Take whatever the lowest note is on the melody line -- the first one?
and then count down seven notes to start on the 5th of the key.
I feel ... that i need a really good wuuuuuuummmmmmmmmbbbbbbbbbhphphphphph sounding bass... and nice sidechain kick snare pattern.
Being that this is right around 150bpm... I wanted instant DnB.. but I like that stuff..
But also.. I really felt a huge rock drum, but very much still trance?
That might be interesting.
I will make a loop and post it in a few.
Anyway, I don't know anything about music and I am an idiot actually lol.
Definitely let me know how this progresses!
I feel like I failed you, but I tried following the basic rhythm.. which for some reason I had a really difficult time following.. But you really need to think..
Like what does this mean?
What does "Into the sunset" mean?
If it's just, "Oh, well I came up with a cool progression, and it felt like 'into the sunset'"
That's not enough I would hope for you?
Altho... now writing that... I realize I am never satisfied with anything I do lol.
I want you to tell me a story?
Can you think of anything from a .. creative side that... would musically show me what it really means to you "Into the sunset"?
Anyhow.. I came up with this
it's at 150 BPM, and I tried to match it with a quick breakdown into the next part I heard in my head... https://www.looperman.com/loops/detail/44289
The title was a spur of the moment one, no thought into it whatsoever, so of course the title probably doesn't fit too well, but I have got plans to do lyrics for this one, so presuming I make some, I'll re-name the track with a more appropriate title.
I will be making a deeper bass for the drop, maybe turn this track into a slow DNB track (I tried it at 160 and 175, both sounded a little wierd).
The drumloop sounds pretty nice, sounds more like what I was going for.
I tried lowering the first note from a G to a C, but it sounds a little disharmonic and out of place, so I'm gonna end up keeping that the same.
Glad that you took the time to write such an in-depth review though, so thanks!
Thanks Avidlife. That means a lot coming from you. I know what you mean about the drums. I'll still work on it to see if I can do any better and I'll update it if I have any luck. I appreciate your taking the time to listen and review!
Rick
Amazing.
this is why I post loops man... I would have never ever done that!
when you start a band, can I be your drummer?!?
I do want to point, that ...how the drums work, I would be happy to send you like.. more interpretations?
I mean, as you have this.. man.. .you are like Eshar..
Awesome.
But like on them drums, I usually intend the 1st half of the drum to be looped?
So you have have the loop rolling and then on the end of a 4 by 4 beat (16 beats) you have the roll for the change?
I love it.
This is awesome.
Keep it up man. I am moving to seattle .. someday lol
Thanks! You're an awesome drummer Abe! I like using your beats because they're so creative. I actually did try looping the first half but decided to loop the whole beat instead. Thought it sounded better that way. ;-)
I was searching thru posts of posts and whatnots.. and I stumbled upon some of yours, AND, I wanted you to know that your words don't fall on deaf ears.
Profound work.
I like it alot.. all of it.
I would like to collab with you, but under the circumstance I get to be the dischord in your melody.
Faved.
Highly recommended.
Good trance. How it should be.
eek except those off kicks.. on an artistic level I can understand why you would do this, as two people never see exactly "I to eye."
but still, I would have taken something "on-time" to facilitate the continuation of the "trance" but do it in a more degrading way..
As I felt you were trying to show "discordance" thru rhythm?
I would have liked just jolting rhythmic passages at that moment instead of just the off-time, and maybe perhaps used glitch/bit-rate drop/ and or distortion.
As we are all experiencing one rhythm... I think.
Entrancing.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the track! Thank you for the constructive criticism as well. It's not that I agree or disagree with you both ideas would definitely work but this is only the 3rd track I've ever made and my first trance track at that. I'm still learning how to use the program and very new to the electronic world of making music so I'm not sure how to use all of the plug ins/fx and tweaks yet. With a little more experience I'm sure I will improve. I would accept any pointers you have for me.
I mean.. hah on the music side of things, I mean, if anything it's real as f8ck. Very real. There's no cellophane on this man.
Yeah.. Dude.. I have almost quit music ... so many times.
(btw if this is about a girl, I feel bad for you son, cause I got 99 problems and they all aboutabitch lol)
Stagnant flow of hip hop...
Man you know... that's the one line.. is there anyway you could reinterpret that?
That's the one metaphor that you need to sync to make this really solid.
What's a metaphor for hip-hop?
Hmn.. soliloquy? lol
I love that word.. I remember the first time I heard it, I was like hells yes.
feels a lot like how it feels to listen to this man.
hells yes
Good stuff.
I love the imperfections. Gives it character.
I of course could go thru my drivel about pads, and space in the mix, but I won't.. But man I really dug this.
I feel what you mean.
Throw the Sine "THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP" on every kick you got trance
But what seperates this track is the "trance"dental properties of human perception. We are absolutely one.
I find it odd, when someone wants to fight me because I flipped him off for him calling me a pussyfaggot. It's like ... well who are you referencing?
I could pull the whole Freudian concept of mother/father relationship, But lets take it further.
To quote "Waking Life", a very difficult poem/movie on life...
I've been thinking also about something you said.
- What's that?
Just about reincarnation and where all the new souls come from over time. Everybody always say that they've been the reincarnation...of Cleopatra or Alexander the Great. I always want to tell them they were probably some dumbfeuck like everybody else. I mean, it's impossible. Think about it? The world population has doubled in the past 10 years, right?
- So if you really believe in that ego thing of one eternal soul,
- Mm-hmm.
then you only have a 1 in 4 chance of your soul being over 150 years old. And for it to be over 120 years old, then it's only one out of six.
-So what are you saying then? Reincarnation doesn't exist... or that we're all young souls like where half of us are first-round humans?
No, no. What I'm trying to say is that somehow I believe...reincarnation is just a-- a poetic expression of what collective memory really is. There was this article by this biochemist that I read not long ago, and he was talking about how when a member of a species is born, it has a billion years of memory to draw on. And this is where we inherit our instincts.
-I like that. It's like there's, um, this whole telepathic thing going on that we’re all a part of, whether we’re conscious of it or not. That would explain why there's all these, you know? seemingly spontaneous, worldwide, innovative leaps in science, in the arts.
You know, like??? the same results poppin' up everywhere independent of each other. Some guy on a computer, he figures something out, and then almost simultaneously, a bunch of other people all over the world figured out the same thing.
- Mm-hmm.
They did this study. They isolated a group of people over time, and they monitored their abilities at crossword puzzles... in relation to the general population. And then they secretly gave them a day-old crossword, one that had already been answered by thousands of other people.
Their scores went up dramatically, like 20-50 percent....
So it's like once the answers are out there, you know?, people can pick up on 'em.
It's like we're all telepathically sharing our experiences.
@ alivid, lol u lost me there at the end of the comment. as for vocals, it has already been done. by a member on this site, hammertwist. i guess he has not posted it here yet.
thnx for the fav and comment
Yes, How did you do them horns?
I think ... I was at a crossroads, because I really struggle with finding good samples and softsynths that can effectively pull off the "brass" sound.
Humn.. I may just rent them. I do that with instruments occasionally.
I actually did some studying into the theory of it all... It's based off some of the work Oliver Sachs and Sean Bennet did on the study of neurophsycology and music.
Things getting stuck in our heads.
Not surprisingly, most of the work is funded by advertisement stuffs...
Catchy indeed!
Nice and sugary and sweet!
Thanks Fam! Everything is done in Reason 4, and the horns are from refills for the NNXT. I love to use brass and other traditonal instruments because I tend to approach it more as a musician than a producer. I'm still waiting for you to rent a harp and lay down some samples and loops!

At this point in the production, (if you are satisfied, and it's not going to have vocals thrown on it?)
I would consider just RIPPING into it and automating anything you could?
Solo-ing every track, and editing it, and then checking it, and then making more automations or edits, and just keep going.
