Great stuff - a trip down electro grunge lane (although Im not sure it existed you built it!) Love all the changes esp those about 140 and 220 but this one to come back too for sure : )

I´m, not the first ehh?
2:20 ish is a cool transition for me with the fill and then I used an eighties noise gate effect on the drums to massively enhance the snare. 1:40 is just a moe breakdown from the intense drums. thanks mate
I had been hearing this Metal Guitar sample for a while.
It jumped out at me the first time I heard it, but I couldn't seem to come up with anything that it would work with. I think I accidentally played it with the Drum beat I'm using. From there the other parts just kinda fell in place.
I (always)appreciate your listen and encouraging comments and Fave 4sure.
Hey there - sounds pretty good to me! You have got lots of risers etc but it's only trial and error (at least if you are a novice like me) to find out if more or less is better. I guess trance is one form that can often be somewhat minimal - driven by the beat a few melodic hooks and well placed breaks and transitional trick - but you've nailed it in that regard I think : )
Nice work Johnnie - you are a little tighter with the vocal here and its very fine as is the lyric. The track is really nice too, wonderful orchestration, etc. A hit for sure : )
Nice work guys - what is about weed and a reggae beat both seem to go so well together. This is warm and uplifting, your voice sounds great and the arrangement is really nice
Masterful and a beautiful blend of some classic synth, pop, funk and jazz elements from the last 50 years that sounds fresh, original and yes pretty magical
ps stay off the mushrooms : )
Hi Ian, thank you for listening and for your kind words, as well as for the certainly well-intentioned warning. Yes, I'm careful, but mushroom dishes are one of my favorite foods...
Cheers,
Micky
Gorgeous - despite so much happening nothing at all seems superfluous or out of place and the balance between the elements and the changes/ transitions is just perfect as is the sound production.
Exceptional!
I test sounds against the rest of the mix. If I can't hear them, I don't use them. This helps me to keep things in relatively separate frequency ranges, without much mixing. Much of the ethereal stuff never repeats, which takes a lot of samples for a 5:45 track, especially when they are layered.
I also tend to use loops and samples that are already in the correct tempo or key, rather than having to do too much stretching and pitching. This is more for economy than sound quality, though sometimes you want that "stretched," or "contracted" sound.
Anyway food for thought. Thanks again. More to come.
Hey Bonez - great pop sensibility in this one and I agree sitting somewhat across the genres drawing on house, lofi and pop - really nice vox and sound production too.
(Again) Love that slacker indie vocal style and the rnb/ Motown influence in the overall sound - this is warm, melodic, beautifully produced and has a really gorgeous grove - excellent.
Thank you for the love. The instrumental is very nice. I consider myself lucky to have had the oppurtunity to lay down some vox. I think I did a good job writing the verses too.
Hey Cru - smooth indeed but plenty of interest with the transitions and playing with rhythms and all round very funky while show great precision with the instrumentation. Great sound production too. : )
Preciosos ritmos y líneas de sintetizador melódico hábilmente entrelazadas que se acumulan en grandes barridos de sonido hasta llegar a una pausa inteligente - ¿hay un indicio del famoso Phil Colins (en la batería de esta noche de aire en esa primera pausa y en el outdo) : )
¡Muy buen trabajo Roberto!
Hola mi buen amigo IAN, tienes algo de razón con el ritmo, has nombrado a Phil Colins, y sí soy un gran admirador de su música, sobre todo de su sonido de batería, de esas espectaculares reverb gates que utilizaba en los años 80. Gracias hermano por tus comentarios tan cálidos y positivos. Que tengas una buena tarde. Paz y salud.
Great track - missed it before - wonderful work on the synths - I can imagine that this would make a very good end credits track on some spine-tingling horror film!
I have no idea what she heard when she first recorded the vocals, I'm thinking I'm not too far off, but it really doesn't matter, her vocals kill me every time.
Great fun track Chris and your voice is fab - emailing you a story from an old psychologist (me) about another old psychologist (Jeff Zeig) observing the work of another (very famous and influential) psychologist (Milton Erickson) so next time the kids wont do what you ask you will have an old hypnotists ace up your sleeve. Story wont fit here!
Jamming indeed - Lots of interesting African sounding rhythms combined with a rich palette of exotic backing vocals, some cool rap and other vox samoles a loose funk jazz rock structure - what's not to like : )
I embellished it a little bit but,
This is the kinda groove I used to
hear in church when I was little. There
were no Synths(there are now) but this was
the best part of church for me. Some of the
choirs really jammed.
Thanks for your listen and encouraging comments.
pseudoble, thanks for making the comparison. The mix was rough and really needed help but a tweak here and a change there makes a big difference. Your listen and feedback is greatly valued. Be safe.
M.T.
Very nice work (as usual) - i think at times some of the instruments are a little loud in the mix but I absolutely trust your ears (more than mine) to sort that out as you refine it. Another amazing track : )
