Description : This is a very little and very humble homage to Jon Lord, the King of Deep Purple, the man who put a symphonic flavour inside Hard Rock.

So long, Jon, keep on rocking wherever you are now!

wow when I saw Jon Lord I had to stop, Machine Head was one of my favorite lp's back in those days. It sounds just like his set up, what are you using for this? I would think those were long gone.

Thank you, foxdfive, for listening and for your kind comment!

The Hammond sound of this track has been mainly created with a couple of plugins: Cakewalk Sound Center and Organized Trio.

I'm happy that you liked it!

Hi Stefano,
Wonderful track! Love the organ, very well played and "Lordesque" (even if the passage around 1:24 reminds me a lot of Mr. Tony Banks preparing his supper)
The double-bass drums are powerful and solid.
Decisamente niente male!
Grazie!
Domenico

PS: I have to agree with R01D, you have some clipping here and there, but the song is really enjoyable.

Ciao Domenico, mi prendo la libertà di risponderti almeno un pezzo in italiano perchè ... è molto meno faticoso...

Effettivamente, ho inserito una citazione di un passaggio da Supper's Ready, mi sembrava ci stesse bene...bravo per averlo scoperto...10 e lode!

Thank you for listening and for your kind comment!

Ahh that first note, my heart just skipped a beat. I love DP and Rainbow. I love how John Lord left his Hammond for his replacement in retirement Don Airey. RIP John, good work this song is awesome

Thank you, my friend...I'm glad you liked it!

Well, the Hammond sound is one of the most difficult instruments to render digitally because it has that ... very analogic peculiarity!

So this is only a "synthetic" view of the original monster!

Thanks again for listening and for your kind words!

I really like the arrangement and composition, but the mix needs some work. It sounds like a lot of tracks are peaking individually, try turning all of them down and it will add a lot of dynamic range to your track.
Don't be afraid to make a quiet track, its a lot easier for me to turn up my speakers than it is for you to spend time making the song as loud as possible and still sound great ;)

Nice song!

I`ve loved that B3 sound since I first heard Booker T...Wish NI still made their B4 vsti (I have an old version that runs (partially) on my 64 bit system)...Great playing Stefano and you really nailed the vibe....much enjoyed....Ed

Thanks Ed!

I appreciate your listening and your kind words!

Well, I haven't found yet a completely acceptable Hammond emulation, particularly for Leslie.

For the organ sound in this track I used both Cakewalk Sound Center and a free vst plugin called Organized Trio, which is not bad especially for that 'deep rock' preset (there is also another nice preset which emulates ELP's Pictures at an exhibition).

Thanx again!

Wow Stefano, this an awesome piece of work. You have recreated that wonderful fusion of baroque rock which was a sound unique to Purple. The keyboards here would have Jon standing in his grave and applauding. This is a wonderful tribute to one of my favorite bands, 'Child in Time' is my number two fav track of all time.

Just awesome bro!!

Hi Kenny, thank you so much!

I was uncertain whether to upload this track, because I was not sure that it could express in an effective way my idea.

So I'm happy that you appreciated a little tribute from a fan to one of the biggest rock organists.

And yes!, 'Child in time' is a timeless masterpiece (I'm listening to it while writing these words and I can't stop shivering!).

Thank you for stopping by and for your kind words!

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.

Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
