This is right up my street and really well done too, thanks for sharing. Man, I got my first really spring tank last week but I’m really hankering after a proper tape echo too - how do you find the maintenance on the Roland units?
Super cool performance. Like the track a lot too! It must really cool to play live with someone else – you never know exactly what will happen.
Thanks guys!
@aswefallintostatic - thanks for the info/link. I’m very tempted as love the sounds of the Space Echo (and the Echoplex too) but was concerned that I’d have issues with maintenance (I have no prior experience with these) and/or sourcing tape. Sounds like you’ve had a generally positive experience so far though, I can totally see/hear why its worth the price.
This sounds really good and you also look like youre having fun! no thing like live performance
I love seeing things like this in a segment of music where computers are so prevalent.
Thanks guys
Amazing, please do this again in Berlin!
I really enjoyed this performance. I could feel your artistic expression through your music and you give off a nice vibe.
The drum level seemed low in the mix however the kick drum came through deep and punchy. I liked that. I’d have liked to hear more of the drums as when you brought them back in on the second part you had some nice fills that were interesting and alternate from the first half. The drums sounded like a bit of afterthought, I am sorry if you intended them to be that way. Personally, I hope you don’t mind me saying but I think the kick drum beating alongside the track showed that the track can work with a simple drum pattern. Like one distorted and delayed hi-hat swinging around in addition to some minimal percussion with editable fx.
Maybe that is too much for two pairs of hands!!?? Hehe
That is just what I think, I hope you don’t mind me sharing, and you know what they say about opinions… They are like as*#oles… Everybody’s got one! Hehehe
The instruments are definitely the focal point and they sound great! I am totally GASing over the Sub 37 now.
Thanks again for sharing and I look forward to hearing more stuff!
Peace!
@HisMostDarxxxellent - thanks for the thoughts man, much appreciated! Its all a work in progress so super useful to get feedback at this stage
beautiful!
*subscribed!
Supernice!!!
@HisMostDarxxxellent - thanks for the thoughts man, much appreciated! Its all a work in progress so super useful to get feedback at this stage :)It is probably worth noting that despite being mastered, the recording on the video recorded as a stereo out form the PA, so does not really reflect how it felt in the room which was our main concern! Still, always useful to get outside opinions on the overall aesthetic. Did you mean that you felt going for some more traditional drum sounds (Such as 808 / 909 style hats) would work better than the sounds here? Also, what do you mean by editable effects?Cheers, t
Hey fella!
That’s cool man, like I said it’s only my opinion and subsequently that opinion may differ if I listened to the mastered version.
Also, my interpretation of the drums that would work akin to your amazing synth sounds may differ to other people’s taste. If you’re open to anything and are willing to broaden your horizons I’d create a drum track to so you can have a chance to listen to my idea.
That was pretty freaking cool!
I probably should mention that the equipment I’d use would be a TR-8, Yamaha E1005, and the Op-1.
Come to think of it, as my aesthetic is in line with yours, I’d also like to try something new. I’d pop the drums through the Yammie and then feed it through the System 1m, then into Jd-Xi’s effects section maybe, before some final Op-1 filterationism! Or maybe have a play around with the line of effects and see what happens!
This hardware stuff is all new to me and that sounds exciting regardless!
Do you live in Japan? Yes, great! When can we jam!??
Hehe
Thanks for the kind words guys glad you like it!
I see!
This is a great track and I look forward to hearing the mastered version when it is available! The track reminded me of Caribou’s recent stuff.
I’d love to make a video one day. However, I’ve got a lot to learn before that.
Anyway, I hope your project is successful, it deserves to be
