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.

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

just like Nietzsche but with jokes (snoball), Wednesday, 17 December 2014 21:01 (nine years ago) link

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

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.

earlnash, Tuesday, 10 February 2015 02:28 (nine years ago) link

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.

Heez, Tuesday, 10 February 2015 02:54 (nine years ago) link

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:

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.

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

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

beatgeneration, Sunday, 5 July 2015 10:15 (eight years ago) link

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

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.

lil urbane (Jordan), Friday, 10 July 2015 19:27 (eight years ago) link

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.

lil urbane (Jordan), Friday, 10 July 2015 19:53 (eight years ago) link

you have a signature kick drum sound now!

I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Friday, 10 July 2015 20:24 (eight years ago) link

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

Immediate Follower (NA), Tuesday, 21 July 2015 19:51 (eight years ago) link

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

lil urbane (Jordan), Wednesday, 22 July 2015 17:58 (eight years ago) link

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.

guess you'll have to substitute "internet hype tactics" for "playing shows". that's what i do anyway.

Finally put together two guitar/electronics pieces into a little Bandcamp EP a week or two ago: https://sund4rsubramanian.bandcamp.com/releases

i think you meant change it "4" to "a", right?

it's great!

Oh yeah, whoops. And thanks!

EveningStar (Sund4r), Tuesday, 25 August 2015 22:31 (eight years ago) link

i also have a new no. 1 hit single: https://soundcloud.com/weinventyou/wild-tumble

This is a project La Lechera and I have been working on for a few months, and we're pretty happy with how it turned out.

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Wednesday, 26 August 2015 13:51 (eight years ago) link

I have listened to it and it is very good.

Immediate Follower (NA), Wednesday, 26 August 2015 14:54 (eight years ago) link

Its release happened to coincide w my busiest work weeks of the year and I can't properly enthuse atm but I'm super proud of it!!

La Lechera, Wednesday, 26 August 2015 16:20 (eight years ago) link

nice!

lil urbane (Jordan), Wednesday, 26 August 2015 16:59 (eight years ago) link

"Cielo" is my favourite. I thought of the first two SYR releases a bit?

EveningStar (Sund4r), Wednesday, 26 August 2015 17:12 (eight years ago) link

I love the SYR series, especially the first two. There's this one guitar thing on "Cielo" where I thought, eep, that's a little too SY-ripoffy, but left it in anyway.

And fascinating stuff, Sund4r! The signal processing is blowing my mind.

Montgomery Burns' Jazz (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Wednesday, 26 August 2015 17:39 (eight years ago) link

digging arc pair! nice job you two. didn't even realize it was you til i clicked on this thread, tarfumes...
