the lead synth line is 1/8 beat longer than other measures. It repeats 3 times at 8/8 and then the last one 9/8, which causes the lead to sound slightly more varied throughout the track. it starts a little later each time..

more tabla/club music. this one needs some melodic work, perhaps some more instrument layering, more chord progressions... anyhow, should be enjoyable enough for now.

Very nice work again!
But I'd argue that it needs more. I actually think it needs less, but that sound/atmosphere you'll probably already get with some over the top compression etc.
Anyways, keep it up!

certainly was enjoyable enough.. didnt shake my ass.. cos my belly goes with it.. but i felt it all the same. i find yo shit pleases on a level where most disappoints. like a bit of electronic stuff now and again and urs always seems to do the job. ta for that mucka.

Format Sea - Part Two
Based on the age-old concept that a person is born anew every seven years. It's technically meant in terms of physiology - you develop all new bones/muscle/fat in a seven year period. I kind of add a spiritual/alien abduction…
ahhh Kirk, there is a world of darker glu that I've carefully buried here for excavation! This one was made with mandolin and the plucking of piano strings..
08 – Feeling Confuzzzed. Written 19th/20th Feb. Recorded 20th Feb.
Come on Wembley, let’s see those hands in the air. As poppy as they come, including plenty of la la las to sing along with. I was very pleased with my Harrison-style slide…
This one was originally slated for the RPM, but I never got to it. I put together this layout one day, and it hasn't progressed since then, but vocals are coming. Does anyone have Tom Waits' phone number?
aspiring abductee pleas with alien to beam him into her ship.
Just a slight rework from early this year. New mix and vocals sometime in the near future. I'm lazy.
Summer Sadness indeed! But bittersweet sadness is best when captured in a smooth tune like this! I loved instrument-switching when I was in a band. cheers.
Something completely different- Uilleann pipes(Irish bagpipes) and synth. I wrote this tune over 20 years ago in the style of traditional Irish slow airs. It was recorded way back in 1991 for an album that's been out of print for over 15 years…
thanks! these are just short brainstorms... you are right, the last one sounds like an ending to a track... Maybe that's what it will eventually become, who knows!
the first multi track piece that I actually finished "in the box" in Cubase. An ambient kinda thing that grew out of playing around with the Line 6 DL4. Not sure I like the bow parts, but I may re do it later
A track that I put on hold for the RPM Challenge.
Of course, now I can't really remember where I was going with it... but to have used it in the challenge would have been cheating.
What I do remember was that I had just discovered and fallen…
A one hour track start to finish - words music and all the faffing around at the end to get the levels right.
It's a ghost story. So go get your cocoa now!
And a Murder ballad and a love story (but aren't they all).

Hmmm - is this an additional track for Glubotic? If so - very cool! AND if not - very cool! ;)

Ibiza here we come!
Love the way the synth parts work together. Just the thing to start the day with!!
I really like the tone you've achieved in this mix. Heavy, biting, AND smooth. Well done.
I knew none of this prior to titling the song!
