Brilliant, I loved the structure. cut the g-solo by half the second part is cloying but the first part is great. add some percussion and a little more on the bottom and we will clean up those pianos to shimmer a little more and you will have perfection!

Definitely want to add some percussion and I'm going to cut out the Bass guitar solo as well. It's too muddy to make out, I left it in this cut because I wasn't sure where to go with the bridge yet in the song. And for the pianos do you suggest a tighter EQ? Like cutting off so more low hz or how should I clean them up!

Thanks!

on Are You Listening Feat Without My Armor by MusicGoddess

Brilliant work on this one. vocal placement and effects were perfect, you built the song up progressively ( in the last verse there are a few things synth wise you can add as a counterpoint to the melody to make it even wider and perhaps a piano playing one note per measure for dramatic effect) Otherwise, great great work.

I loved this one, the distorted synth sounds reminded me of some of the early sounds I used to create with the Korg MS2000. Bravo

Hey Cru always good to hear from you sometimes Rob Papen is useful though not usually but he has some good spacey stuff not always that musical. Regards Robbie.

on THE PUNK ROCK PROJECT - Beggar by BradoSanz

This is the evolution of Power Pop, I knew some guys from the Rosenbergs (look em up). But to tackle this genre the cream de la cream is the the band the ¨Struts¨.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tK6C9B-bN3U.
this is a good song keep working it. I am happy you are branching out trying new sounds. That´s the best way to improve and keep climbing the stairs of artistic semblance.
Also Centralsdev, never makes any sense when he try´s to engage you about effects, and compression, your best ##### is too just to nod nicely and move along without poking the sleeping bear.
keep on keeping my friend, always good to hear your evolution. us older folks are counting on you so we get some backstage passes some day! ;-)

on The Streets Are Ours by silverman

I still feel it´s a NIN opening, but I love the Pad rising like the sun to bring beauty to the track. the strumming guitar gives it an organic edge. organ stabs are a nice touch. yeah it does scream out sing over me!. 2:20 is a nice bass slap sound. a couple of Löwenbräu Radlers, and some wine (Vidal, Niagara region) and I feel this track eating at my bones. the groove is infectious to the core, and those organs keep stabbing and stabbing until I have no more blood to bleed out.
All in all a great work.

Very nice track.
I would say there are some elements of Reggaeton as well as some Breakbeat and early Dub-Step characteristics. you have combined some cool genre elements to make a fusion of sound that just is awesome.

on The Streets Are Ours by silverman

So it starts out with a NIN sound, and then moves into this otherworldly zone. I get the Donna Summer Reference in this and think you should re-name it ¨Love to medicate you baby¨!;-) it is a compelling listen though, and I will return to listen after a few more beers (since I am off tomorrow) to give a more randy description!

Yo Cru.
Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
I'm really not sure what to make of this other than there's something I really like about it but have no idea just now where to take it or if it can actually be taken anywhere!
I think I'm going to try and put a poem over it I did forty years ago.
It'd be called a rap these days.
Maybe I'll be called the second rapper ... Bob Dylan being the first.

on BRAIN WAVES1 -Original Mix-instrumental by lechina

Happy I got to hear this one from yah. I can hear the South African influences in the drum patterns, but you deliver it with a minimalist style which is very cool. The organ is interesting as well. It´s hot (28) today in Ottawa and I am enjoying a nice beer listening to this one as the breeze filters into my listening area. perfect accompaniments for my day mate!
cheers Cru

on Pavement Hitter by Spivkurl

So I´m listening to this piece while reading the others comments, and at the end, at 3:02, one of your synths sounded like a damn harmonica, neat effect. This is sort of walking music. Nice use of white noise. Your control over these analogue instruments has become masterful. But it´s the delicate touch of the bleeps juxtaposed over a cool moving baseline, that is not predictable in any stretch of the imagination. But also you use your synths to sound slightly ambient as well in your arrangement of this work.
This is the point where I don´t compare your work to someone else's and I can say , ¨This sounds like Spivkurl¨ I did not want it to end. Great job
Steve

Spivkurl replied 15th Jun 2017 - 9 years ago

Hey Steve! Happy to see you here at this track!

It is true, this is entirely walking music, at least at the pace I try to keep. I believe that you hear what the music is saying, and I am thankful.

Any white noise in this design is pretty incidental. It was not abused on my modular or monotribe. I don't always remember where my sounds came from though.

My recent patching sessions have been very enjoyable, and more focused than before. Most of my patch bay is largely disconnected since my last rearrangement, so I have been choosing my instruments carefully, and only connecting what I need via midi and audio. Finally got some cable nests untangled this week, so that helps!

I like the swing of the analog parts, which give a weave to walking the straight line. True to life for me lately. Timing has been an utter nightmare since FL studio 12 came out, but I am battling through it, and I think I have learned much in the process. The application could be considered broken at this point, but I think that I am growing used to broken equipment.

I am happy that you can not associate this with anything, since it means I'm doing my job as an artist. I can't think of anything which directly reminds me of this either, ha ha.

Thanks for the great and enjoyable comment. Hope that you are well. No tornadoes, right?

on Mirage by Orlando51

Leon, another winner. I love how your production brings a different value to Ed´s melody. 1:42 the heart of the emotion of the piece shines through. The strings (as zacoos pointed out ) bring a melancholic feel to the piece. The rhythm is definitely Ed. I like the use of SFX as well, creates a nice ambience, even some reverse sounds. A lot of good production went into this one. great work.
