Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Here is my latest Metal/ EDM project that was born sometime towards the end of the 90´s The composition was already made a few years earlier. I did a little modernization and fine-tuning and thought, that I should put it in the publication, rather than leave it in the bit sky graveyard;)

Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Thank you, basslik, you always have kind words at hand, and not only that, but there's also substance in them! It's fitting here that I comment on this story a bit. My great aunt used to live in Australia, and I've visited her three times, the last time when she turned 100. I plan to go back there because I love Australia.
Today, my great aunt is no longer alive, but she lived to be 102! And I brought this instrument when I first visited Australia, and the recording is from the latest house party at the end of last year, where I brought it along and played a bit. Sydney Opera House - I've walked around it, attended a concert there, and it's an Australian symbol. I have an Australian friend, who is now retired, who used to sing in the choir there, and I'm always proud to say that! That's why I added the Opera House reverb with my new plugin (Altiverb 7). The didgeridoo is very Australian, and so is the reverb containing the Opera House. This touch is not, of course, any special masterpiece, but my colleague said at the party that it sounded like a steam engine on the Mississippi River, and that's actually a simple example :-) Thank you for listening. |

Thank you for sharing. A story that you will cherish indeed, and the rest of us having understanding and appreciation. My mother-in-law almost made it to 102, just shy two months in 2020. She survived the Spanish flu in Italy. |

I bought a hose of appropriate thickness, but then we inserted the microphone through the flight hole into the hive. We didn't want to keep it there for long because the bees became restless, hence the emission of gas. |
Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
I see how that sound tunnel was very useful. Pretty neat.

Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Hi,
We released an album with what we ourselves describe as ’the strangest music you might ever heard’. That’s the reason I am posting it here. Curious what you think of the music, the mix and if you know if there is an audience for this kind of music. This album was recorded as a jam session of more than two hours, and afterwards the best parts were selected and edited which resulted in these tracks. Extensive use of ProTools, beat mapping, elastic audio, Melodyne ARA, all tools needed to make this possible. Because everything was recorded live in one room and our main focus was the jam, the recording is not always of the highest quality. If you know people who might enjoy this music please feel free to forward these links. We ourselves are crap in promoting, none of use are on social media. Any feedback is also appreciated. Below links to Apple Music, Spotify and our website where you can find more info… Thanks, Daniel https://music.apple.com/nl/album/sha...496457?l=en-GB https://open.spotify.com/album/5xwi7...QfWZlkzNbOuBHQ https://www.unheardconcepts.com |
Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Hi Daniel!
Look too professional, but I liked it! If you have been used Pro Tools, very good. Are you willing to comment more? (If you were at the production) How many musicians and several microphones were there, it would be interesting to know? Did you work a lot on after-treatment, how many hours? Looks like you have experienced! |
Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Hi,
thanks for the kind words. Some more info: The musicians were a guitar player recorded through DI (post fx), a keyboard player recorded as midi, a vocal artist who uses his voice with a mike but processes it live through some fx processors, a sax/clarinet player recorded through a mike, and me on an electric upright bass. (from the Italian Alter Ego) Four tracks were recorded and mixed in 2006, and on those a drummer was present with an electronic drumkit. (would have preferred an acoustic one, but the bleed would be too big to make music like this possible) All other drums/percussion was played by me afterwards. Everything was recorded in a rehearsal room; I brought my MacBook with audio interface, and plugged everybody in, set the recording levels, hit the record button and start jamming together. (and that means we just start to play, listen to each other, and interact) You then end up with a multitrack recording of several hours long, and then the real work begins: I first listen through the whole recording and mark the parts which I think might be usable and throw away all the rest. I typically end up with around 20 sections. Each section is then saved as a separate session, and then I go through all the different instruments, and choose the parts which sound good to me and throw away the rest. That might be small sections of a couple of bars, or longer of several minutes. Then I use PT’s beat mapping to create a temp map for each piece, and switch all tracks to tick base and use elastic audio, so that I can set one overall tempo for each song. Then the super creative part begins: now everything is in the same tempo you try to combine/arrange the different parts and pieces of each instrument and might decide that what was one guitar part, now becomes three layer guitars or keys. So each instrument you hear might have been played in a totally different order. Once I am happy with the ‘arrangement’ I start mixing and use fx to emphasise each musicians style. Favourites are SoundToys, FabFilter, Eventide, and Pianoteq. (most keyboard sounds are made with Pianoteq) It is an awful lot of work, the beat mapping and elastic audio part are the least fun part, but needed to make the rest possible. I have always been fascinated by music which is partially improvised, and partially arranged. On the website I mention in the first post (https://www.unheardconcepts.com) you can see other project which were done in a similar way. The BeMixed! project was the first time I experimented with this form of music. This was all done in ProTools, and I love that this is nowadays possible… (been working with PT since 3.1 I think, and seen it evolve from a tape recorded to a music production system) All the best, Daniel |
Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Thank you for the descriptions, very interesting.
So, I'll write that my favorite track from this album was the 12th one, "Traveling," and I'll add that I also enjoy traveling! I play the clarinet and saxophone myself, the latter being my favorite, and it's great to find it on this album. Your descriptions added a special touch to this record, and I downloaded it from Apple Music to listen to it more. "Favourites are SoundToys, FabFilter, Eventide, and Pianoteq. (most keyboard sounds are made with Pianoteq)" - good choices/combinations! Best of luck in the future! Urmas |
Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Totally hear great work in all the aspects in creating this album.
I'm digging FRANTIC. I bet if Allan Holdsworth was hearing this album, he would be digging it.:-) |

Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Hello Gary!
I was wondering if comments are welcome, hopefully yes!? I didn't rush with my own, as I wanted to give it time to settle. It was a nice journey and meditation, very soothing. Like cave drawings speaking from before our time and calming music (including the sounds of water) that induces meditation. Quite mature and sophisticated happening, the kind one sometimes encounters at art exhibitions. I haven't come across such on a YouTube channel before, but perhaps I'm not always present. "I PAINT LIKE DALI" is a good summary of what was depicted in one pen-on-paper sketch. I enjoyed it, and thank you for sharing it with us! |

I readily felt the song from end to end. Real deal feel & emotion + quality production. Really like the sounds of the instruments and soaring tone of the vocal expressions. The first verses were sang in a predictable manner which is a good thing. I could feel what note was coming next based on the first melodic pattern. Wasn't trying to predict it, that's just what I could feel coming. Very cool that I could feel what you are expressing to the listener. And isn't it true, a really good new song can give us a moment of auditory Deja vu; as if we've heard it before? But audible surprises came my way as well. What I like most is the dynamics. Especially the silence between the strikes that magnify the chorus. A good reminder to all that simplifying, slowing things down and resting during the musical phrase really adds power. The way it comes across in the vibe of this song really impresses the feeling into the mind & heart. I have a couple songs I'm trying to apply this kind of dynamic to. Then I liked (and readily felt) the rhythmic change of the musical feel & vocals in the final sections. It's it's own unique expression and a strong and inspiring one at that. Songs of loss & grief do elicit this from us! I'd say it's on the same level of my fav bands of this genre. Thank you for posting. |

Let's get intimate on this. I just listened to it again (which is what anyone posting can hope for). A good track gets deeper & deeper with each listen and each section seems to last a bit longer as you get familiar & feel the whole essence of the song. The song definitely exudes depth of feeling and is inspiring. I also like the vocal layering and the darkly beautiful & elegant style of the instrumental/solo section. Like a true dirge should be played. It inclined the ears, raised the eyebrows with a simultaneous head tilt like true music does. And no doubt will evoke tears for some. 5 stars in my book means there is not one thing I don't like or that detracts from the track. Even though I said it reminded me of of a couple other bands of this genre I can't pinpoint which ones. On second listen, this really is it's own thing. Your own feelings & experience. It has a real sound it's own. Your vocal chords are like .20 gauge and the sound & mix quality of the whole band is to be desired. If I ever have the means (if I ever) I'll look into Shrapnel Sound Studio. I'm officially a new listener and this will be added to my new songs of 2024 playlist for more listens. Best Regards, Mike |

You're welcome.
And EXACTLY! Seether & Staind but next level. It's the full-throated-stretch-tone Ozzy inflections that I was trying to pinpoint! Definitely a compliment being compared to born singers. Nevertheless, sounding uniquely you. Give the band props from me as a well. |

Thnx for commenting! As for the music track: I was going for an ambient/trippy/flowing/dreamy/"Brian Eno" vibe, to set a mood for the 127 art sketches. I "played" all the VIs on the track; I use the word loosely here. Click the YouTube "...more" video description field for Info/Description of the art project Seven Lines In The Sand. I have currently published 3 books, plus 3 companion YouTube videos. Book/videos #4/5/6/7 will be rolling out over the next two months, to complete the set of Seven Lines. Enjoy! |
Re: Let's hear your latest stuff....right here
Thanks for drawing attention! We are currently on ski holiday in Austria, but if we return, I will show also to my wife and give comments.
