T576, ok so I hear the upright bass. Smooth jazz at its finest. Guitar is phenomenal. The whole composition made my evening. Thank you for such a great listen.
M.T.
AtticElla, again a nice listen. The intro put me in mind of Kraftwerk's Trans Europe Express. Also, you have a great knack for keeping the continuity throughout the mix. I'm interested to know what else are you hiding in the archive? :)
M.T.
Well, a bit of advice. BACK UP YOUR HARD DRIVES! A few years ago, I lost about 10 years of material in one horrible moment. It was a good thing I had my finished tunes and sample library backed up. But I still lost a lot of unfinished, potential material and ideas. I cried.
Didn't take me long to clog up my hard drives once more, but as you know, it takes time. Thankfully I'm back to normal now.
T576, this was a superb listen. What I hear is that you have the ability to take what moves you and translate that into music. If I'm wrong then I'll stand corrected. Clean mix that is Watercolors worthy. Great job done very well.
M.T.
Thank you 77, you are correct. I'm an old school writer. If I don't feel it, I can't write it. It has to feel like what I say it is. You are a fusion man you get it. Thank you for stopping by. PEACE. T576 OUT.
bringer, so this is proof there's really no bottom to the creative well you draw your ideas from. An interesting listen for me from the perspective of dynamics. The highs are astronomical and the lows are the Mariana Trench! Once again imaginative and clever since dubstep is not your first choice!
M.T.
Thanks really to the loops on this site (about 30 or so). Just search "drum" or "bass" as the keyword and "dubstep" as the genre. Tune, stretch, manipulate, chop, layer. I use my ear for key.
The mixing looks like a circulatory system, each capillary a loop chunk with its own fx chain (but really pretty systematic), each major intersection (bus) with its own FX chain, and multiband compression/saturation and chained compression on the master.
I've been experimenting with multiband compression and cabinet emulation quite a bit. My next two tracks (already done) will be long but very pleasant journeys (lofi/ambient influenced, with a hint of modern industrial); the antithesis of this.
thanks for the listen and comment, rather than worry about whether or not I am in my "comfort zone," I'm removing the concept from my mind altogether :D
T576, yep had to disinfect my headphones cause of the raw funk. Throughly enjoyed this listen. You’ve got all of my favorite elements in the mix. Thank you kindly for sharing this gold.
M.T.
AtticElla, on a roll huh? I've said it before and now again, your compositions are on point. This is nice, very nice. It reminds me of Swing Out Sister! Also, I like the musical direction you're going and flowing!
M.T.
Yeah lol, sorry M.T.. I've been meaning to pace myself but I literally got nothing better to do at the moment. Listening so much good music here in LM gets me inspired as well. I'm going to take a break now and let things marinade here for a bit.
Swing Out Sister! So many memories. That is awesome you think so.
Thanks again for another lovely comment of encouragement.
AtticElla, this is so classy. The keys are wonderful. Your application of saturation and that lo fi vibe is sweet. Thanks for this tune I’m on the road listening.I love your style! Stay safe.
M.T.
zootman2u, nice, nice tune. The communication between the vocals and the trumpet is top shelf. The synth work at 2:48 is genius. Great work as always.
M.T.
AtticElla, what you’ve got here is an excellent foundation. There’s plenty of space for another layer of atmospheric synth and a mellow synth lead to talk back to the vocal. Like convert the vocals into midi and tinker with some midi editing on that synth track. I like what you’re doing. Be safe.
kingmt77, I certainly appreciate your suggestions but maybe you are not familiar with the type of house I am producing? This style is purposely sparse, any excess instrumentation would kill the vibe. You can check out any mix by Carlos Grau in YouTube, specially the first song of his latest mix - The Grau Club #09 [Urban Edition] · Carlos Grau · Valencia and you'll see what I mean. I sure appreciate you taking the time to listen and comment. ;)
ioncewas, hey you glitching here and that a great thing. This is chill personified. Such a full and impactful mix. Great job, keep up the great work you’ve been doing. Be safe.
Hola amigo, lo que has hecho aquí es esto, nadie puede sentarse cuando esto está jugando sin importar dónde. todo el mundo debe bailar, incluida la abuela. Esto es muy divertido, profesional y les agradezco por una gran experiencia auditiva. Gran trabajo mi amigo. Esté a salvo.
Gracias amigo Slinky por tu apoyo y tus comentarios tan positivos. La verdad que he hecho un tema extraño, electrónico,pero eso sí, sin perder mi carácter trance, que siempre sale aunque no quiera. Te lo agradezco compañero. Que tengas un bien día. Paz y salud.
clxrityyy, you are off and running in the right direction. Nice choice of synths as they are pleasant to listen to. I especially liked the move at 0:38 and the keys at 1:07. I'll stay posted on the progress of this nice one. Peace.
Prodcde, ok I see where you’re going here. Marimba, xtra accents on the hats. This is nothing but potential plus. I see this with vocals and some lo-fi synth, and de tuned horns. Go ahead and add some more fire to this already blazing track. Good start definitely. Be safe.
Coming from you that means a lot to me your work is amazing i was hoping to get the dance vibe going on here usually jiving about in my seat is a good sign but at 67 any kinda movement is a good sign. Have a good one bro. Robbie
Mykael, that voice tho! I would have loved to hear this before the remaster. This version is scary clean. this listen was relaxing and pleasant. Excellent work. Peace
Thank you so much! It's just a dirty quick master as it is just a scratch demo. We are still playing around with the arrangement. I don't believe the difference between this one and the earlier version is very remarkable. I'm happy you enjoyed the listen!
AtticElla, tasteful use of effects. Working with saturation effects changes the whole perspective of a track. And you’ve done that with precision. Great work and a really great listen. Be safe.
I'm glad you found the saturation effects work well. Was hoping to get feedback on that aspect. I was going from too much to too little and I think I finally hit a sweet spot. Thanks for the listen and comment.
