I will do this if surm sings

Woah, that "Lady Godiva's" rules! Really spooky and ethereal, but still rockin'.

LL I admit I was v puzzled coz when I click that link I get five minutes of just drums (upload date last year), but now that I've found the actual one, this is v cool!

I've been musically inactive for ages because I've had the template for some kind of electro ballad in my head but with no ability to realise it, so instead I noodled over the top of its droney foundation and now I can abandon it https://soundcloud.com/eeeeeein/lfsj5

huge whoops there! i went back to the old one to see how it sounded and must've accidentally posted the wrong link. glad you found the right one!

and thanks everybody!! i'm kinda glad i don't know all the rules about when i should be embarrassed about what i've made/shared because it means i can feel genuinely good when i get any feedback. anything is good because 'audience of one' songs are my specialty at the moment.

i struggled with the mix on this one. i mixed most of it while on headphones, and then yelped in agony when i listened to it on speakers. depending on whether you listen to it on headphones, laptop speakers, apple earbuds, or regular speakers, the vocals are either way too loud or buried, and the organ drone is appropriately loud or inaudible. i give up.

i'm excited about a new song again!!
this is me and tarfumes the escape goat playing some instrumental rock music!! http://bit.ly/1umSJH6
not gonna lie, i love it and tbrr i have very refined and discriminating taste so obvs it's super good

pretty rad

^

Thx :)

sounds great!

here's something recent from my band -- just a rough iphone recording... hoping to do something real in the new year!

high quality jam! you're fortunate to have jovial people near you to jam with. sounds like a good time!!

i made the beat for this rap song.

i wish i had gotten to have a hand in the vocal mix...on the one hand it was nice not to have to worry about it, and the engineer did a great job punching up my 808s, but i feel like it's overly busy. i would have taken the chopped vocal samples out of my beat and argued for less backing vox during the verses, but whatevs.

that link is broken :(

oops, thx :)

i like it! whoever said it was like taking a bath was otm

i think they were saying the beat reminded them of baths, although it's nice like taking a bath too! :)

great job jordan

oh lol
still otm

thanks guys!

recent updates are all really good and now i know who tarfumes is on soundcloud :)

i made a synthesizer album with this app called kosmiche synthesizer, which is a really cool android app...for your bloopin and bleepin pleasure, name your price ($0.0) on bandcamp

My band just released a free experimental mini album https://discozhivago.bandcamp.com/album/disco-zhivago-great-artery

Opening track sounded like something from The Goon Show. I half expected Peter Sellers to say something like "Ach! No more high fibre diet!".

haha, it's entirely improvised - just one take and one mic with no script. there are some pretty absurd moments on there

Put it on youtube now too Disco Zhivago Great Artery (Full Album): http://youtu.be/CCQerl-kPuU
best heard on your way home after a couple of drinks I reckon

I made a new song and people said nice things about it
https://soundcloud.com/alanmaguire/civil-twilight

I finished this song last week but haven't officially released it yet.

For anyone curious I used a Bass Station II, u-he Diva, TAL U-NO-LX, and Matrix 6 for synths (these and guitar through a Strymon El Capistan), and an MXL V67G for vocals.

Little jam we cooked up on last Saturday.

https://soundcloud.com/earlnash/mascara-lines-demo

made this little dancey song with a bobbie gentry sample, a drum machine and some keyboards. i don't usually do dancey stuff like this so i really have no idea what i'm doing.

so i took the above song and added samples of a woman reading coupons on the radio that i taped a long time ago. it's now bizarrely hilarious.

There is this Com Truise sample contest going, so I made this track with my Juno 106 and Bass Station II:

https://soundcloud.com/resistorsings/radio-china

undanceable and unenjoyable

https://soundcloud.com/constantlightduo/automating-bussed-in

should be twice as long

Careful what you wish for. Or just suggest.

We've got a new song up. A quasi-metal tune called 'The Art Of Breathing'. We were going to make a proper video for it but ran out of editing time. Oh well. Would love to know what you all think.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2f5gx1TQFQ

i made the balearic kinda thing out of a caetano veloso sample.

https://soundcloud.com/heez-1/this-one

Just put together a first edit I"m actually kind of happy with, keen to hear thoughts

https://soundcloud.com/beatgeneration/gilla-help-help-beat-generations-re-edit

that's a v cool track, heez.

after a few super busy months of doing very little music (and with a few more ahead) the other day i dusted everything off for a quick attempt at some kind of grouper ripoff, which turned into something a bit more grotesque

Thanks!

I don’t seem to have posted this raw bit of techno I made a couple of months ago: https://soundcloud.com/glocknspiel/noisey1

jordan i'm listening to your thing while i work on that one thing and i'm loving it, great work

aw thanks man! looking forward to the thing.

had a couple remixes come out btw:

https://soundcloud.com/do-the-astral-plane/michael-brailey-2-lovers-chants-remix

https://soundcloud.com/do-the-astral-plane/premiere-hudson-alexander-so-many-things-chants-remix

i did them months apart and ended up using the same sample (a door slamming in the parking garage at work) to reinforce the kick drum in both, then they came out the same day. so embarrassing.

you have a signature kick drum sound now!

ha, i'm definitely waaay more ok with re-using patches and samples than i used to be.

also produced this weird 160pm rap song for a cool lady:

Me and my former bandmates have a new band
http://shreddedsun.bandcamp.com/

Fake Fictions reunion! sounds cool, i don't know where you guys found the time.

Ha it literally took us six months to record that 13 minutes of music (though a big chunk of that was dead time from me working on other things and kind of forgetting about it for a while). The stuff that ended up on the EP was not part of a focused plan, it was just as we were finishing up it we said "hey we should have a band again." So we'll see what it actually means to "have a new band" when we have four kids between us and have to get a babysitter and travel to the suburbs to practice.

been synthing a bit
