Hey Mike - just back from travels ... this one has some pointers to the animal collective to these old ears but lots of gorgeous jazz square wheel ambiance - a beautiful sonic trip.
Free sound sure is an endless draw of interesting things but I havent mastered how to craft with it yet - spent ages listening the sounds made on the Prague metro (I lived there once). Hope you are doing well
Ian
cheers Ian! i am mainly plundering freesound from the o-2 second range, but yeah i dig the long environment recordings too. on relisten i found this too torturous to bear. it’s been a bete noir but i have kinda sorted it out in the current version.
thanks for the words and ears, mate. i’m off to find what you’ve been up to!
Another really poignant track (im trying to catch up on what Ive missed). You done a lovely job with the backing track and have a powerful lyric and tenderly powerful vocal delivery mate - big congrats
thanks for the compliment Ian, i really felt this one, Matthias' music was great. its nice to see you around, hope all's well and we get something fresh from yourself soon, although time seems to be a factor for lots of us of late, me included, haven't done anything for a month
Hey Wayne - love it as usual - different guitar sound (I think) bit more old school telecaster like sound or is it a different amp (or simulation) anyway I like it
A few weeks back I bought a new "inspired by Gibson" 60's Epiphone Les Paul Smokehouse Burst and a newly re-released "The Guv'nor" Marshall amp emulator pedal, the JCM 800 is the amp it is based on. Totally new sound and gives me a new approach to making music, harder edge. It's pretty awesome!
Get down - there is some powerful surging and pulsing carrying us incessantly along here, love those swirling 808's and the dark atmosphere and driving beat.
Very cool - 90's dance wouldn't be my fav generally but this is so very well done - Donna Summer meets New Order meets Kraftwerk - Great sound production too with perfect space and balance in the mix to these old ears : )
Nice work - this slow beat and the vox manipulation has me thinking of Mitski (I could imagine her covering this see

What a fantastic adventure - funky, vividly dreamy, and yes very very psychedelic - go ask alice like - better dig out my Jefferson Airplane records. And I like the female vox in particular. Great depth and sense of movement in the mix, very cool synth and wild lead - is that a phrygian scale giving it that dark exotic feel - it's a treat.
You got two out of three. I was also thinking about the Mahavishnu Orchestra.
I was playing around with the Phygian/Dorian scales when I did the Guitar/Synth part. The Drums gave me the idea for the Bass and the Jefferson Airplane, Vocals and psychedelia. This track has been sitting in my library for close to a year. I'v been trying to purge that library and get those tracks out of my system so I can move on with my life lol.
Thank you for stopping by and giving the track a listen and Fave.
It's good to hear from you. It's been a while.
Hey mate - this sounds like it's clipping or is that just the lofi hip hop style? At any rate - another nice rap and good performance and love the horns - bit of an earworm
woo - gorgeous - the guitar is so good and seems to get even better as the track goes along but the whole track is silky smooth and there's a beautiful depth to the sound production - butter on warm toast indeed
Thank you, p. I had a ball writing this. Your ears are on point. What I mean is, after the sound depth was created the sound alone told me what to do. Sound design is verry important in music production. Thanks again for the stop by. PEACE. T576 OUT.
beautiful work mate - appropriately poignant and building tenderly and gently triumphant. Ive had a few funerals recently and in each case there's been a slow sad slipping of vitality from the person who has left us and a lot of anticipatory grief equally though its a privilege to see how much courage and love people are capable of - but of course it's tough, grief it tough - all good things to you and your mum and family
Grief is tough, She was at an Assisted living facility when another dementia patient pushed her, and the back of her head hit the inside of a door frame causing a massive hematoma. If it were you or I we would probably not survive such a fall. The Alzheimers sort of protected her, but she can't really eat food anymore, and the surgery to insert a feeding tube would kill her at this point. She is resting comfortably and was transferred to a hospice today. I am en route from Canada to New York and will arrive tomorrow. It is a matter of days.
oh yeah nice intro - that 808 /kick sounds like its clipping a little to me but as Ive said before I love your voice and the lyric is good. Sweet. Great outro too : )
Smooth professional sounding pop song - no rough edges which is why Manuela comment about it being 'flat' makes sense but as she said it's still a good track in that commercial vein. Always hard to know how much to spruik your own tracks - in Australia we tend toward self effacing but thats not much use if you dont already have an interested listener / audience (but folks on LM are an exception in terms of their willingness to lean into different things and listen I reckon)
it's a great guitar sample, I wasnt sure if it was a keyboard sounding guitar or a guitar sounding keyboard, but yeah great sound and youve built the right tone and mood around it - love it : )
I played Bass & Rhodes on this one.
I did some "automation on my Guitar track
to simulate a effect pedal board (still in
the experimental phase for me). I played the
Synth @2:13 to the end with an attempt at Guitar
phrasing.
It's always great to have you stop by give my track a listen, I appreciate your encouraging comments. Thanks for the Fave...
Great sound on the synth(s) and as Mark says really nice how youve woven the vox and synth together and the interweaving of the arp synth lines with the drum and bass is very catchy and classy. Nice work
Hey Micky - wow what a nice vocal from PANE and some very nice funky disco. Love the building rhythms and the build and mix of instruments, great percs and bass, and those cool seamless transitions, usually not such a fan of that 70's sounding wandering jazz synth but it absolutely fits here
: ) Ian
Nice that you stopped by my club again. And thank you for the applause!
I stole the bass theme from an 80s album by singer CRISTINA. Their eponymous album was produced by August Darnell aka Kid Creole and Andy Hernandez (Coati Mundi) and is a kind of disco work of art. There is the track "Blame It On Disco" from the middle part of which I "taken" the bass figure. Cristina's album should be dug up again, because it's a beautiful document of the times and August would certainly be happy too...!
