Sitting Waiting

So.. I haven't been around here in just about a million years.

It was a long semester, and about the only thing I could pull out music-wise was this piece and one other which I believe max marlow will be laying on you guys later.

It's not really that much, but the synthesizer was created by me in max/msp, and the drums (which have been smeared) were done with a drum machine I created in max/msp. My wife played the flute, and the cello is just the reason sampled cello.

Anyway, enjoy. All comments are welcome.

Dan,

i love it. as i love you. :-) :heart:

the flute is very well recorded and your surrounding noise make me really stunning. the implosion of the noise at the end is really nifty (!) :-P

very cool, chloro. great synth sounds and the flute works quite well. production wise, top notch

IRAIL:

didn't like that first synth a la SAW II, liking the flute, unexpected. like the surrounding sounds

the track to me it sounded like an intro, sounds like the beginning of something, doesn't work alone for me.

dan is always like an intro, like me saying good morning in the evening - meaning that the sun is always rising. i think thats a reason why jeremy selected him as intro track for the noise compilation. i'm looking forward to a future efford where this gets a guideline through an EP or LP, because the finished ones so far were working pretty good as a complete product.

wow really I got first track on the noise compilation?! man I've been so out of the loop lately. I'll have to go check that shiz out.

PS: If you don't like this track there's something seriously wrong with you

PPS: wtf is IRAIL?

PPPS: no that wasn't the noise compilation that was the Experimedia 25th release extravaganza release. oh well!

I Review As I Listen

now can I get some reviews?

Duke Nukem Voice: come get some

Regarding the discussion : making reviews b4 want some = pwn

70's Tangerine Dream is what this reminds me of.(the Electric Meditation album to be exact) That flute is beautiful.(one of my favorite instruments) This is a really beautiful piece. I don't know why but this makes me think of the old animated Watership Down movie if it were directed by Stanley Kubrick.

Flute= ACE - she has a really lovely tone. It's nicely produced - well balanced with the backdrop. Cello and Flute sound almost like a slow sarabande baroque style peice or something similar. Nice!

Chloroplastic - baroque in machine

 

AHA!

lol.. if anyone was going to catch it I figured it'd be mrs. jynx!

Anyway, thanks for the listens loaf eye and jynx. oh and yan g and fieldtriqp too.

Shame , you didn't do anything spectacular with the flute sounds & left them untouched, clean. It sounded like an intro to me aswell, a very well produced intro, but still..maybe you could tie this with something else, incorporating the flute & make a classic.

 

Nice to see somebody actually using Max/Msp in a compostion.

Not everything is electronic music, bro. If you want to experience the audio manglation I've done, go to retropublik.com and check it out.

otherwise, is it that hard to spell 'respect'?

I agree with the first line, but not so much with the second. The track really does stand on its own, and it's pretty grand, the recording of the flute were spot on as well. Like yan_g I'm not a fan of the synth sound, it almost sounds a bit too preset-ty and thin but I'm sure that be sorted out easily enough.

Good stuff though man

cool man.

About the synth... I guess you two are right about the synth. After spending like two weeks making the damn thing my perception was clouded into thinking that was all I needed for it. Maybe some low end compression would help it out some... though, still don't think it really sounds anything like SAWII. Thanks for the input.

great quality - what kind of reverb do you use? it sound awesome

the reverb on the synth is a reverb I made/adapted from an example in max/msp, the rest is just one adobe audition's reverb effects.

if i had a wife that played the flute i would throw that shit on every track. the piccolo is better though but whatev. good track.

Piccolo is fucking horrid man. get your head straight.

But yeah, she's got a piccolo too.. that's a good idea. The horridness would decrease through serious DSP.

and just you wait :grin:

Thanks

dudes, its the only internet we have! just words!

everything is fine, ok ? a late creation - if word or sound - may be somewhat unfinished from time to time.

peace! :duel:

I'm not doubting yer audiomanglation skills, I was commenting about the track.

All I meant was that's not the intention or style of the track. I don't care if you doubt my abilities.

But on another note I apologize for the stab at your writing technique, I've been kind of quick to draw lately, if you know what I mean.

Yeah this is fresh. As soon as I read that Tangerine Dream reference by Loafeye I had to check it. For the first minute or so it was well trippy and scary but got a bit too suggestive as it progressed for my liking. Still pretty damn sweet. Yeah that flute sounds real nice. How did you get that flute sounding so cool; is that you playing?

EDIT: Ha ha forget it. Just read your wife played the flute.

What is it that you find suggestive, or rather, what is it suggestive of?
