Great choice in drums. My wife started her early music career singing opera. (the more you know0. So she has me well versed in opera from offenbach through verdi to -Weber. I have heard it all. that sounds like Mickys voice vocoded. Well done as always.
Believe it or not I sang J.S.Bach, Baroque style music in German. I sang in the Highschool choral state competition. (Crushed it) IJS.
I wish Micky had collabbed with me on this one. He would have gotten the Mix/Mastering right. Especially for the vocals.
We should have a colabbed track posting tomorrow "StarTravels".
Thank you for your listen and encouraging comment.
PEACE... From the East, I think, The South 4 sure :-)
This tune reminds me of something I would get when I bought a CMJ disk back in the nineties. Drowsy Xanax-induced music with an awesome Tape echo effect. well done.
Ta muchly. Was kind of pleased with it as improv but then I hear others skills and think I need to lay off the Xanax! Still we live and learn, thanks for the listen
Nice mix and EQ spread on this one. Good use of the acoustic instruments with the New Jack Swing style of beats. Probably belongs in the Chill category as this is not Electro. Good work!
Nice auto-panned (rotary) Rhodes. I used to Emulate that effect on my Korg MS2000. Sax has a nice reverb on it. all the instruments sit nicely in the mix. A great composition as well. Always impressed with your work mate!
Cru, as you can tell, there’s never ever too much Rhodes for me. I love the sound. Thanks for your listen and feedback as always. It’s good to know this was another good one for you. Be safe.
M.T.
Thank you my buddy for stopping by! Listening to "Drip" right now, and it's pretty brutal as you mention. Reminds me a bit of Slipknot. I also appreciate you linking me up to those plugins, I'll see if I can get them installed! Thanks for taking a listen!
Nice! This is a cool song. sort of an accessible D&B for the masses with a nice electronic feel. Well, thought composition is driven by that arpeggio as the chords dance around it. then that solo piano strike works so well at 2:12. That vox afterward so reminds me of something I might hear on a Bran van 3000 record. Were you using Valhalla Supermassive mate. the effects were spot on. really impressed with this one. Fav´d. That ending outro is also incredible. Standing O
Thanks, Steve! That means a lot coming from you. For the vox, I used an assortment of effects. I used some distortion, clipping, an amp, a limiter, and some basic eq to get the desired sound (all of logic default fx). I spent a few days on this one and I'm pretty happy how it turned out. Bran van is a nice band to be compared to, so thanks for that. Thanks for the kind words, take care, my friend.
Really intriguing sound. The vox mixing and effects were great. I am curious about who is singing. (it feels like two screamers and a clean vocalist, but I know that the technique is a controlled technique and many growlers can sing clean as well. I have been intrigued by this band from Sheffield lately as I feel they are pushing some incredible extremes of music. I am very impressed with your work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL4VHwXI7_I
I´m sorry did someone just spike my drink? Wow, the sounds and the depth of sound, and the placement of sound, and the spread of the eq were all amazing. ¨Dipped a toe in psychedelic" Shit after listening to this I see 10 of your feet dipping into some sort of breathing liquid. Are we sure no one has spiked my drink at this point? Cool guitar solo at the end. fav´d and Iḿ gonna go lie down now for a bit ;-)
No... No one "spiked your drink" at least not me...
I used a "Dr. Who Sonic Screwdriver". Bought it on Ebay.
It sonically plants a chip in your ear, but you have to have a sense of humor for it to take effect. LOL...
All the Lead Guitar sound was Synth. At some point I hope to find a Synth that really has the Guitar sound I want, but for now this is what I got.
I appreciate your listen and encouraging comments. TTYL.
Hola amigo Steven, me alegra mucho que te haya gustado la pista, siempre uso sintes midi para producir mis temas, incluso si pongo una guitarra o un bajo o un drums, suelen ser vst. No se tocar la guitarra solo el teclado y un poco solamente. Que tengas un buen día compañero. Paz y salud.
What a cool tune. I love the stabs and the chord choices. And a nice displacement of eq frequencies. And that it´s different than most of the Pop crap out there now. It's a really good tune. I fav´d
Hej! Bass is the star here. Was over before I could really get into it but you have something special beginning, have fun with it. And Merry Christmas to you and your family.And a Happy New Year.
Thank you for the welcome back! I'm doing okay considering the adventures of the last couple of years. Too much to go into really, but thank you for asking!
Awesome production, that bass (sub frequency) is really strong but actually works well on a good system as Roberto kind of mentions but maybe is a tad too much for this kind of song which is sweet and has like you said a Toto like sound. (Toto was one of the most underrated group of musicians ) . I did enjoy this listen, mate. good work as usual.
Thanks Cru. Working in a manufacturing plant for 30+ years, I'm surprised I have any hearing left. So I usually turn up the bass because my innards are accustomed to persistent low frequency excitation.
Nailed it mate, I have no comments other than that because you simply nailed it! So I´m just gonna sit back with this glass of sherry and just enjoy what you did and turn off the hemisphere of my brain that analyzes things and just bloody enjoy it.
I like the Piano on this, gives a nice deep house vibe. The 16 beat Hi-hat gives some motion to the rhythm. Just a curious mastering question. How much DB headroom are you giving before you compress the mix?
Thanks for listen and comment crucethus. =) I usually leave between 3-6 db headroom before I master depending on how dynamic the peak level of the track is.
Very nice Eric, I hope you and the family have been and still are safe in this covid environment. I am afraid it (Covid) is not done with us just yet. Listening to this you did an awesome job with stereo separation and depth of the mix, as well as the EQ is just spot on. Myself, I have been doing some Italo disco lately which is out of my comfort zone, but still fun to make. https://www.youtube.com/user/bognorlittle
This is a fun youtube channel of some damn good underground disco, EDM, and various electronic sounds. You might enjoy this.
carry on!
thanks for the comment. Yes, we are both fine. Got our booster shots a couple of days ago. Still, keeping our heads down, so to speak. I agree, COVID is not done with us yet.
thanks for the info on the YT channel. I will check it out. Sounds interesting!
Ahh Yes, The Orb´s ¨Little Fluffy Clouds" remixed by Danny is what I meant. I was mixing that song with ¨loft in Paradise" from his back to mine series. Must be my age catching up to me (lol).
That's perfectly fine crucethus. Thank you. And the age thing? You and me both. Memory lapses abound!
But that 'Little Fluffy Clouds' tune is so good. Absolutely love it. I found two different Danny one is a 'Detour' mix and then a 'Downtempo' mix. I prefer the 'Downtempo' one.
Again thanks for bringing it up and if you have any others you like let me know =)
Very cool. I really loved the last 3rd of the track. you put a lot of attention to detail in this one, it is very good. I wish you warm greetings and pleasant days.
Beautiful Ella, very chill deep house. Reminds me of Danny Tenaglia's deep house work ¨I float in the clouds"comes to mind. just a sweet and tasteful tune. BOD is spot on with his Maj 6ths. I am enjoying your work so far.
crucethus, I looked for 'I float in the clouds' but I only find 'Little Fluffy Clouds', could that be it? I any case, thanks for pointing me in that direction. He is really good! I have to listen to more of it.
Like I told bringer, I should make it a project to figure out what you guys mean with Maj 6ths. It can get frustrating not be able to express sounds that you have in your head quickly enough when not knowing theory.
Thank you so much for your nice comment. Truly appreciate it.
