this is a remix. all the instrumentation and vocals were done by dj rim. I liked the song and wanted it to be more badass. this is my result. originally titled 'cigarette in my hand'
a driven micro-stomped chord progression on the accoustic five string accursed I(where did that e go?) followed by bass hornets, top it off with a skidmark of a special effect
this was an accidental song. I was making another song for which the main two loops of this song were simply the ending. The first of these loops is so visually stunning, I just knew It was its own bar.

This is a great debut for you at improvFriday, good to see you there. As you know I've been trying to cross-pollinate between alonetone and IF, and it seems to be working!

what I meant, really, is that I liked the way you felt free to play around with limited materials in this track (and others); and the different colors coming out of one chord is what made me think of Stimmung. It's all about the ear, and you have a good one, rather than theoretical knowledge (though that doesn't hurt, despite what some folks say).

This song makes me smell belches and dog drool (dog belches?)
I hope that makes everyone FAV this until it hits the top of the "kicking ass" list. Because who doesn't love dog belches?
Sorry about this. I'm not sure if there is a way to send messages on here without commenting on a song...
Anyway, I was being sarcastic when I said the name explains it all. I come up with the names to my songs on the fly. Whenever I go to File > Save it's whatever comes to my brain.
Re: Lugnasadh ~ Thanks for the feedback mate! :D It got you up and dancing? Maybe you dropped a pill? ;) I went to a psytrance festival a couple of years back and this track I made in Reason around that time. I remixed it in Logic this year to iron out what I felt where it's initial shortcomings.
sorry about that c}{imps, was the bass that loud? I need to test these songs with real monitors some day. Or at least a set with sub woofers. hmm your songs is not playing. Was going to comment on it.
I think this is the first song that I've posted here under Mannequin Races that actually has a guitar in it. You can't really tell that it's a guitar but it's in there (middle section around the 1:50 mark). The guitar is heavily modulated but…
Improvisation on Gon-Bops congas, while thinking of future days gone by.
4/4 180bpm.
LYRICS
A cool wind brings the fall
And the season starts to change.
Outside the sky's steel grey.
Inside my heart is too.
And I don't know how to…
songs have a gentle flow, matched by complementary smooth vocals, they are not sleepy or slow at all, just, without too many sharp edges, even at the odd points, where something might not be perfect, even with heavy distortion flowing in and out of the mix, these songs don't cut the eardrum at all, and they are beautiful. intensely complex, yet never frantic. dont mean to effervesce over your stuff, but, it is just great!
good stuff, nice use of backing vocals. like the improvaciousness of the totally rockin guitar. The lickiness of it, i think I mean.
it's cohesive and sounds interesting. great dynamics.
Au Naturale! A song a friend of mine wrote. Performed by me, of course. All recorded on the Boss Micro BR. It's a song about sharing. Very rough, raw and unplugged. Kind of embarrassed to "share" it - Please excuse the mistakes and hacks! One…

Thanks for the comment. Some of your music...I'm wondering if you are just f-ing around or are just a genius. Can't decide, but I like it.

a gentle shower of well arranged samples
well, just like to say I was having some trouble DL'ing this song, that's why it looks like I listened to it compulsively.
man you have a great voice, prob said it before, but your vocals and lyrics catch my attention. you playing is great too.
it is fun!
compressing..my..brain..feels..good...
great titles too, makes it hard to choose from the ones i haven't heard, which one to hear next.
so much spirit! this song made the wind speed change at my house.
norm, nice one man.
i can hear the fat dripping
nice bass synth at minute and a quarter. dig the song.
i like it
viva der nederlands
i love the word poignant..and you give me reason to use it.

parts of this song are rooted in classic rock, it is far more imaginative than typical rock music. really love the scales/solos
the ending was quite well done
good stuff, nice use of backing vocals. like the improvaciousness of the totally rockin guitar. The lickiness of it, i think I mean. it's cohesive and sounds interesting. great dynamics.
cool!
and a real voice talent too
you are one sick axe man
