on The forgotten symphony by johnnyproducing

"I think a fusion between orchestral and electronics could really work out well for this, tell me what you think"

yes I think that would be a brilliant combination. I will start working on this over the weekend.

johnnyproducing replied 3rd Oct 2014 - 11 years ago

Message me if you need something, stems the song itself etc

on The forgotten symphony by johnnyproducing

Challenge Accepted! "Barney Stinson" But Before I remix this I want to hear your thoughts on what you would want to hear in a remix understanding that my style is ridiculously eclectic and sometimes atonal. What elements do you absolutely have to hear in a remix? (This is a new Idea for me. I have to reach out and connect with the original artists to get a better feel of there work other than me just making some wild remix that fits my taste as well...I want some synergy!)

johnnyproducing replied 30th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Interesting approach to remixing a song, I would say get that dark feeling into it but there isn't necessarily a sound that has to come back to it in my opinion

On the other hand electronics mostly go with upbeat kind of stuff

I think a fusion between orchestral and electronics could really work out well for this, tell me what you think

Also again great idea :D

on The forgotten symphony by johnnyproducing

Nice melody I could see remixing this into a powerful dance edit as well. Nice work

johnnyproducing replied 29th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Well if you want I can give you the permission for it and you can remix it ;p

Thanks for the comment ;)

on Sphere of Light ft Janis 71 Ferryterry by promenade2239

I agree with Static the intro is awesome. Ferry Terry has some awesome drum loops. I love the subtle placement of the instruments as the song builds. 1:25 is interesting percussion. Sax works well. Vocals need to be brought up a bit in the mix, guitar wacka's are nice. 3:41 sounds like a midi sax, I don't think it fits well. Until you start playing arpeggios with it, but I would mix it in the background more. Overall a fun and interesting ride you gave us, Well Done
Steve

promenade2239 replied 28th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

hi Steve,
Thank you for your nice comments on the production. I'd rather say that I intentionally wanted to keep the vocals in the background... The wah-wacka's are from MrRay22 piano plugin - Im using it here also for bassline, soft rhodes in the background and soloing. I used the 'lazysnake' e-piano plugin as well to support the bassline. Agreed with keeping the solo synth lower in volume in the mix (at least at some parts). I like that though because it makes the track more dynamic and more 'fusion'.
Many thanks for listening and glad you enjoyed the music and the vibes.
Greetings, Alex

on Dont Keep Your Love Away Parts 1 and 2 by EricMilligan

Very Moody blues, Beatles Inspired indeed. I am looking forward to the third part because the Human league and my 7th grade music teacher showing me a Moog synthesiser is what inspired me to learn keyboards and synthesisers and to write music. Well done Eric

EricMilligan replied 24th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks very much Crucethus. Wow! You must have had a cool 7th grade music teacher! Mine was an old-school ex-british military band guy. Excellent musician and taught all the students all the instruments in the band. But, no Moogs and no Human League. Mind you, this was actually pre-Beatles so can't hold it against him! :)

BTW, if you are ever downtown in the Market area and want to get together for a coffee sometime, send me a PM and we can set something up. I don't think its a major breach of online etiquette to actually meet a fellow Looperman member in person?

on No Mans Land ft Janis71 by promenade2239

Beautiful Intro. I love the dissonance. Awesome Rhodes piano sound. Then some really nice drums in a disparate time signature. Janis vox Dans le Langue Français makes it seem other-worldly. 3.29 it was over too soon, a great sign of a great song.
good work Alex.
I partook in sampling her voice for two songs, one a remix of her Les Planiciers,(The Boaters) and Another completely of my own creation loop wise called Dark corners in which her beautiful voice rounds out the chorus. Unortunately I do not have Les Planiciers available now but I will rotate it back in some day.
In the meantime please enjoy dark corners.

many thanks for kind words Steve - Im happy you enjoyed this one!
I made also some other song with vocals from Janis 'Lullaby for A' a few days ago:

this one contains also very nice ferryterry guitars.

Here is my newest piece based on SBM competition song:

Many thanks for the links and interesting replies.
Talk to you soon,

on Close My Eyes Ft Mhyst by SeriouslyJoking

I like this one, good chord structure following the circle of 5ths (music theory) nice side chaining and overall a pleasant journey. good work
.

SeriouslyJoking replied 21st Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

The circle of 5ths? Have to remember that.
Thanks for listening, Steve.
I'm of course hearing a lot of errors after uploading, the vocal doesn't sit very well and I think I compressed away all the dynamics...well it's all just a learning process.

Cheers!

on No Mans Land ft Janis71 by promenade2239

Nice work combining all the elements, now I will download this and I so want to add some compression and stereo separation for you as this is an awesome tune
Steve

promenade2239 replied 19th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Many thanks Steve for your nice comments and glad you enjoyed the song. I do not like to use too much compression which might be really strange for some people but I think that sounds much realistic this way. Thanks again, Alex

on Dantes Guided Tour by Evisma

Really enjoyed this one. The mix was awesome as well as the production. The bass line progression was very nice. The nice light touch of tubes and other sounds was perfectly executed. really enjoyed this onme.

here is a link too an artist who made some very interesting instrumental music and then went all new age soft later on.. this is from 1970. (the bass lines are interesting in the same way you write)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_tpVBu0L_4&;html5=1

Evisma replied 19th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Wow, Peter Bardens did some Yes-esque stuff. I'll be listening to more soon.

Glad you liked the track. My bass died half way through and the track sat for a moth or more unfinished. I saved 200 bucks and went to the repair shop. Exposed wire touching a pot casing. One inch of electrical tape with a touch of super glue, and he didn't charge me. Said to bring in all my broken toys. Deal. The bass I recorded "The Enforcers" with has a tone knob that was set to mud, then broken off. It gets the next trip.

I've been working on mixing, so to hear you say it was good is very gratifying, and a surprise.

Take care.

Evan

on Answer is JESUS by AlexisSofield

I would just say that this is just an electronic piece of work and not industrial. In Industrial the beats are more hard hitting reminiscent of steel factories.Your beats have some interesting stutters and reverses but not quite Industrial Uplifting chords at 2:40. Overall pleasant.

AlexisSofield replied 18th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks for input. I'll change to electronic.

on fight the fear by DanGoldstein

Mind opening and very creative. Listening again for more perspective. Sort of chimes in the beginning give you a sense of hiding in a hut. from the enemy. With your sinister melodic lines and percussion. Cool Clarinet sound. Which is mimicked by the guitars later. Good work overall.
Steve

DanGoldstein replied 10th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

thanks Steve. that clarinet is actually a shanai sample from old yamaha midi keyboard gradually run through a chorus effect. i'm glad you liked that. really glad you had a chance to check this one out. look forward to connecting again with your stuff. regards - Dan

on Disintegration by steve010101

It's like minimalist Psy-Trance. good work all around.

steve010101 replied 11th Sep 2014 - 11 years ago

I didn't really know where the track was going when I started out. I was aiming for an ambient sound, but the psy-vibe took over completely, haha!. Thanks for listening.

on UPDATE Thinking Of You Ft Felicia Santilla by SeriouslyJoking

Nice Filtered Intro. Synths Remind me a bit of Moments in Love from The Art of Noise...back in the day. I almost feel the vocal line comes in a micro second too soon in some phrases. The reformulated bass piano sound at 1:45 is nice and counterpoints nicely with the melody. Over all a pleasant listening experience.
Nice work.
Steve

SeriouslyJoking replied 20th Aug 2014 - 11 years ago

Steve - hello!
About the vocal coming in a bit late - yes I Think I can hear that too. I wanted it to come in a tiny bit late for the most time and synced the other times to give it that laid back vibe but now when you mention it, maybe you are right - it should come in late every time to not loose the rhythm. Even for a microsecond.
Thanks for listening!

on Looking For You by Spivkurl

Really reminds me of Berlin (Tresor) Techno from the nineties. really nice and minimal. Nice work.

Spivkurl replied 12th Aug 2014 - 11 years ago

Hey thanks my friend for the words! That is definitely one of my favorite styles of techno, but I'm no expert. This is one of my favorite songs, especially considering I've never felt good at techno. It's enough to shed a tear knowing what it came out of. I always appreciate your listens and your viewpoint!
