Description : My (now ex) girlfriend gave me the title before I even set down to work on the song. The whole idea for doing a song like this anyways was due to the Facebook group I belong to, Nerds United. I said I'd make the group a song for everyone in there to have for free, both for them to enjoy and hopefully share with friends and get my R.S.S. project out there for others to hear. Guess we'll see though, eh? Note: The present version was edited to have lower drum levels in comparison with the previous version.*

Thanks for the kind words man. The only critique I perhaps had about it were that the drums were too powerful when I went and listened to it in my car. At least when compared to the other tracks I put with it on my little sampler I'm passing out at my band's gig this Saturday.

If you like this track though, you'll probably really love Altef Fuore (read Alt F 4), the new "intro" track I made for the sampler. I can upload it either today or tomorrow for listening. So be sure and look for it!

Sorry bro, I can't give away all my trade secrets. Haha, just kidding. Seek out Tweakbench; it's the name behind the VST I used called "Triforce." That should help you out I would think. Thanks for stopping by to listen and appreciating the track and sounds. Be sure to keep an eye on my page; you never know when I'll have something else going up.

This is a very cool retro track! I dig all the sounds you used! Really nice mixing and arrangement! Man this brings me back! Thanks for sharing!

Not at all a problem. I see you around on the Looper a lot, so to have you stop by and review my track is an honor. I grew up on video games; especially early RPG titles such as Final Fantasy, Dragon Warrior, Ultima (NES version) and others. They really had an impact on my mental development early on I believe. Or at least I think. So video games will always have that sort of place in my heart, and continue to serve as an inspiration for my music.

Who knows? Maybe we'll have to colab on something along the same vein as this track sometime; mixing up 8-bit memories with some favorite synth sounds.

Haha. Glad that you loved it bro. I tried to mix 8-bit flare with electronica grooves. I just love to arp sounds, so that's why that's in there a lot. The 8-bit mid part I had to keep simple and reminiscent of old school Nintendo games. It was really just a lot of fun to make, I swear. Thanks for checking it out. Share with friends on the Looper if you don't mind.

I'm very inexperienced when it comes music so my synth lines and bass lines consist of simple scales so when I listen to songs (particularly when listening to DnB, Dubstep and Electronic music as well as anything with an 8bit sound) I try to study the synths and the basses and drums to see how they sound and the notes that are played. I try to pick up what I hear and integrate that with I know to better myself. In the case of your song, I'm terrible at making interesting lines and common video game sounds using 8bit so if I listen to your song I'll have a better understanding of what I need to do.
I don't actually get a chance to study the work of others though, I'm too lazy. haha

Mixcraft huh? I tried it back when I didn't destroy my PC, wasn't a big fan. Each to his own. xD You're good with it. =] I'm still looking around for good free VSTs, I did however buy two plug-ins and downloaded a bunch of AU which did improve my music a bit. We'll do a collab or something in the future most definitely, I just have to improve a bit before I'm ready to though. I'll check out your loops.

This was pretty good mate! I learned a lot from this track. Hopefully I can incorporate what I've learned from this track to make my music a little better. Sorry I couldn't give a good review. Good job and I hope the members in your group like it.

JustTony replied Unknown
Haha. I'm a lot like you man. I'm only using Mixcraft 5.2 to do my stuff, with all soft synth VST's I've gathered up over time. I'm curious as to what you learned from listening to it though. I'd definitely like to know.

But yeah, me too about the group. Sometimes it's hard impressing nerds, you know? They can be very picky sometimes. I loved arp'ing the hell out of my sounds in this track though. I love arp sounds, that's for sure. But yeah, thanks for liking it, listening to it and making it a favorite. I appreciate it all bro. Maybe we'll colab on a song in the future or something. And feel free to check out my loops, what little I have up thus far.

Description : A demo of one of my current projects. The chorus vocal sounds like "Aaaaraashe" to me. The song is in C# minor with a nod to C# pythagorean on the chorus. The beat on the verse was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song Intruder.

Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.

Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Description : Far out mid-tempo fat beat deep chillout grooves with Eastern/Arabic and slightly menacing vibes, huge delayed synth bass and a great palette of psychedelic layered and intricate sounds (mostly synths) and a stirring, epic feel. Even has guitar solo section reminiscent of some 80s power rock which is then followed by a brief synth harp solo. I began making it straight after staying round the flat of the flute player from the legendary Ozric Tentacles - easily the greatest ever space rock band. I made this in about 2001 and still think it might be my best track (and it's nice and short, for a change). My production skills were much weaker in those days (no EQ, compression or mastering used here) but, somehow, this one turned out pretty much just right. Feel free to disagree. Now sit back and get ready to trip extremely far out. If you manage to return, let me know how that trip was...
