Pako,
I laughed out loud at that one... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Well, this came from toying with Harley Davidson samples. I realized a Harley motor is really a percussive sound, and I wanted to hear how it would sound to put some 'chugs' within a certain bpm, part of them controlled, and part of them natural.
Then I just wrote the rest around that idea, and added guitars to it.
For synth, I have one sound module which I milk for all it's worth...it's a Korg 01R/W, which I run from a 'slave' keyboard.
I don't think I'm finished with it, but for today I am... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

[img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] Cool, right on.... I'm looking into some synth moduals and a controller to help in my "solo" creative endevours as it's hard to get the band into the studio when I have the urge to create.

greenroom,
Nice, man... kinda hypnotic, very soothing in a cool way. I love the descending chords and sounds... I had a feeling your stuff would be really good. [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]

thanksroy

roy, i loved "burn", its awesome. you should get some grungy,scratchy vocals on that song....like a metallica "fuel" type of thing, not that it needs it but it would be different.

keep up the good work.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Hi Chris. Thanks for the compliment. Yep, all by my lonesome...I tried for a long time to find other musicians who wanted to do this sort of thing and eventually gave up and decided to do it myself. Unfortunately the Do-It-Yourself approach also caused me to divide my time for years between writing and learning enough of the technical side of things to produce recordings that at least sound passable. But I imagine many on the DUC can relate.

Over 1,000 posts in a single thread eh? I take it this is a test case. Glad to see the whole shebang didn't vanish into thin air!

Rational Punk/Dave,
I almost missed your first post, but luckily I caught it...
I'm very impressed. I read some of your site info, and yes, I can hear a slight 'Rush' influence in parts of your arrangements, but you use it wisely, without overbearing your own unique style. Ayn Rand, eh?... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] Very cool influence there as well; I really like your lyrics.
Thanks, and keep us posted with any new stuff we can hear. [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

~Roy

p.s.Thanks, bi0force1... [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
