Hymn to aton "Thou hast filled every land with thy beauty. Thou art gracious, great, glistening, and high over every land; Thy rays encompass the lands to the limit of all that thou hast made ..."
I dont know Micky - I like it but that's probably too generous ; )
Of course you are right - in this old form the hymn is certainly rather ominous. But that's why I wrote my own little version - it's meant to be much friendlier and more modest:) Thanks as always for listening.
Powerful and soulful - even without my understanding of the language this conveys great depth of feeling, heartfelt emotion.
More power to you (and to your mum)
Long live love
: )
Starts sounding very dreamy before a thunderous burst of overdriven beats over some very melodic arpeggios on piano, also some nice dreamy backing vocals and other percussion in the mix - the keys and the beat really dominate the overall track - tricky to get the balance right with the other elements but sounds pretty good.
Hey there - I like the energy and the composition - the very live sound is kinda cool but I do wonder what a more 'studio' sound might do - sound wise there is a lot of space in there that might be utilised. For some reason the guitar had me thinking of talking heads - circa - more songs about building and food. Overall I think it is a great track - for sure keep going with it : )
Hey man! Yeah you're right, there's clearly a lot of muddledness. I'm not happy at all with the quality of the drum recording (will do that again if I have a better kick mic) and the vocals need some cleaning up - some filtering, but also there's too many layers there now.
I'm curious and interested what you mean with "lot of space that might be utilised", that sounds really interesting - feel free to drop me a DM if you care to elucidate because clearly you know what you're talking about and I don't :)
BTW I created this song this week as an entry for a production/engineering course that should happen soon (fingers crossed). I think the teacher will have his hands full with me :D
So classy, beautiful jazzy, soulful, groove and yes every little sound perfectly placed in the mix and yet every instrument on its own worth paying attention to and shimmering away.
Hey Chris - nice chill atmospheric start with those gently congas and lilting melodic backing vox and nice slide into the more up tempo main body with some nice almost jazzy synth work woven in with those beautiful melodic elements lifting us higher before we float back down again. Nice little trip here : )
Kia ora Ian, thanks a lot. Played that synth in one hit, didn't really edit it at all. Been in an out of the hills a lot lately so need to catch up with whats been happening. churr.
Hey Emmani - nice work buddy - very gentle and atmospheric with a lovely balance of Foley in the beats and adding to the warm sonic texture, and the melodic elements with the keys, pads and synths are very sweet (but without cloying). The closest I think Ive come to this gentleness is with an ambient track I called 'Bee' (still up if you are curious).
Beautiful work Jynxz - very cinematic feel to these ears - can really imagine that drive through the city late at night. A real lovely space in the mix, and of course brilliant musicianship too : )
It's kinda funny how the feeling dawned on me after I wrote the track and listened to it and it brought back memories of
being in that downtown atmosphere listening to music that meant everything to me at the time. Plus being with Mark and the other band members we were like family (still are). Living life to it's fullest.
Thanks for giving our track a listen, comments and for the Fave. It's very encouraging.
Hey Buddy - nice groove here - I like that kind of minimalist industrial start and how it gets a little more funky as it goes along and love way you have 'orchestrated' (not literally) the transitions. Rich and exotic textures and instrumentation a head busting beat. Hope you have made a full recovery - I had a lingering cough for a month post covid ... ughh ... though good to make music when you dont feel like doing anything else hey : )
Thanks, Mate, starting to recover, my sense of taste and smell came back yesterday. Still feel awful though. 2weeks and the cough continues so I have that to look forwards to.
Another great track - so many intricate textures and beautiful melodic parts to this, the transitions are sublime, great flow, and lovely sound production too
Thank you for giving my track a listen
and for the fave with encouraging comments,
I missed you here on LM. I need to log in
and check out your latest.
A jazz rock cabaret on acid - wonderfully creative drawing on musical themes from the last 60 years and (of course) somewhat zappaesque but jynxzed up and sounding very sharp in the sound production - what's not to like
I guess the cats out the bag on my age now. LOL.
Actually I went a little farther back than 60yrs.LOL.
As always I appreciate you taking the time to stop by
and listen to my track, your encouraging comments and
especially the Fave.
Hey Cru - this has a little of that Dona Summer meets kraftwerk vibe happening again but with some really gorgeous flourishes. Love the sound production too
Kraftwerk and DS (Giorgio Moroder) is just the begining. they inspired so much more to come, like this tune I quickly made which sits in the 2000's in style.
par exemple: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-vH1zo-JjM
is the master of this style of house.
Electronic music keeps on re-inventing itself, but we owe Kraftwerk and Giorgio a huge debt of gratitude.
Thanks mate!
Dark and brooding indeed - the effects on the vox are pretty interesting but it works so well, and the guitar sound is great as is the sound production overall - very nice work
Woo hoo - very very nice work - and yes very mellow velvet underground like but that's a very good thing to be like. Really nice mix too with the guitar and bass and drums all so well placed and doing just the right thing - for sure it would be even better with a nice vox.
If you are looking for inspiration for a vox that might fit have you ever listened to the silver jews (I loved there album american water) or there main man David Berman died a year or two ago but his last album was pretty good too or check out the microphones (Phil Elvrum) in particular the album the glow pt2 - looking forward to your next one
Guau Roberto - un tema trance muy hábil con unos hermosos arpegios melódicos, sintetizadores arremolinados, ritmos sedosos, transiciones de buen gusto y muy suaves, y una magnífica voz empapada de reverberación - prácticamente una composición perfecta - Y, por supuesto, una producción de sonido soberbia. Enhorabuena : )
Gracias amigo Ian, me alegra que te haya gustado el tema, he producido esta pista basándome principalmente en la voz femenina, que me había gustado desde la primera vez que la oí, por lo que me la llevé en cuanto pude a mi terreno, y le he dado ese toque trance que tanto me gusta. Que tengas un buen día compañero. Paz y salud.
Very nice work - dark and powerful with real depth and texture to the sound and I love the way it builds - epic sound and cinematic in scope for sure : )
Thanks! I ditched the lead, shortened the song a little. Did a little fixing to the mix, got the horns louder, after listening they were a little buried.
I tried to sing more on this one rather than just bark out the vocals, like I will be doing on the next one, he.
