Thanks mate

¨It's always very interesting and it's not very interesting in my opinion.¨

Well that's a paradoxical statement? Care to elaborate?

Thanks BS.
This is not your typical seventies tune though, this one belongs deep in the underground sound and avant garde aprox 1979-80 at least in the pantheon of this type of music. And this one is a fun one to play.
Cru

Somebody likes to play video games.................just a guess ;-) Very dramatic description which I appreciate and thanks for stopping in and commenting.
Cru

Love Dolby, too kind with the praise, thanks amigo.
Cru

Now that helps Joe! Thank You.
"At the time the genre arose, important synthesizers were the Korg MS-20, Emulator II, Oberheim Matrix and Yamaha DX7.
Typical EBM rhythms are based on 4/4 beats, mainly with some minor syncopation to suggest a rock music rhythm structure."

Since this is using the Korg MS2000 which is an emulator of the MS20 and the Yamaha RM1x which has some patches from the DX7 in it's banks and the fact I use a 4/4 beat in a rock like way means you have won the genre challenge my friend. Never heard of this until I met you. And from what it describes you are spot on. congrats.

"EBM is more a bit darker, a bit more hypnotic, a bit more on a -stand around and dance in a standing way- with closed eys and some more "inside" feelings ....... bla bla bla :)"

OK Joe I get your Zeitgeist on this, but what does EBM stand for exactly? Electronic Bitch Music? Electronic Bourgeois music, Emo Banging Mantra's...that's what I wanted clarification on.
"it is just a cool kind of disco music in my ears with a little dark hypnotic touch."

I would agree with that assessment. Demon Disco is not a widely used term, and I believe New Order would fall into that category with Blue Monday.
"Respect for a real musican like you are one for sure Steve."

Thank you Mate.

to me Disco is more complicated and simpler than the fluff pop garbage we got served on pop radio from 1977-1980. There is T.S.O.P. filled with strings. Funk-Disco (White Cherry), Giorgio Moroder's electronic early Trance. rock disco fusion. Early House music. But the one thing in common with all those tracks and genres was a simple 4/4 beat at around 120bpm, that is all you need to be considered disco.
Bee Gee's were incredible songwriters and melody creators. For a period they still wrote great songs but just added the 4/4 beat. I heard Adam Lambert do a version of more than a woman, but in a broken down acoustic style that was incredible. why...the underlying song and melody is good.

Ahh I love doing that solo. It's actually much easier than many of the other solos I have done. But I love to play this one and glad u got to hear it and most touched you commented on it , with it's many wah effects because it's just pure joy for me to play.
Cru

Domenico... you are definitely not insane my friend. your one of the sanest people I know here! Demon disco at it's finest. This song is really a test to make sure you haven't had a stroke!
Steve

You are sort of correct in that this is a post disco song. What I love about Ferry and Jagger and Richards and Bowie, they all spent time at studio 54 and absorbed the hedonism of Disco which erupted from the gay underground and added it to their rock and R&B sensibilities and came up with some amazing sounds and songs that go beyond disco. outside of the 4 to the floor beat the intricate rhythm guitars and bass lines set them apart. This is an ode to that style.
I am glad U enjoyed it.

All those songs contributed to the synthesis of this one. Thomas Dolby.. love his work. Hyperactive, and Close but no cigar are two of my fav songs from him.
nice comment my friend.
Crugracious

Hey Joe,
" EBM sort of Disco " please explain EBM to me?
This is played entirely by myself. String stabs, guitar sounds, percussion, bass line. All me on this one.
I was going for a Demon Disco sound.
Cruditeck

Luvs yah 2 but keep that on the down low...shhh...

Finding some Roxy Music in anything these days is a good evening I would say.
;-)

I telephoned Madonna but "Like a Virgin" she "hung up" on me because she is such a "Material girl" I would need something "Like a Prayer" at this point to get her to listen. it's like she is "Miles Away" from my "Music". At this point I would have to be one "Lucky Star" for her to "justify my ...er song" to her.
;-)

Thank You Ed. eejits (idiots) nice. And yes when I write about insanity I happen to trick you by making a straight ahead pop tune. All in a day's work ehh? Thanks for stopping bye.
Steve

So sorry I missed this comment 7 mos ago. Glad U listened and commented. what are you up to these days?
Cru

Thanks man, sorry for the late reply!

Thanks for that. Cheap Synths , Expensive effects.

Sort of a post disco tune, more in line with the new romantics and Roxy. Thanks for commenting and listening!

cool, I remember I liked Dead or Alive and I bought You spin me right round as a 12inch single, so I bought there first album (sophisticated boom boom), and it was awful. Some good some bad in that era!

Awww, you made my day!

cool, because this track was recorded in 2000 originally and just re-mastered this month that synth sound was created when you were 3 yrs old.

Thank you kindly!

Thank you for that, I think it needs more cowbell ;-)

Thanks for that, I appreciate the comments.

Where to next est zee question. Thanks for listening my friend.

I'm glad you liked. I alaways liked the underground left field disco tunes. Even the hybrid rock-disco tunes (miss you, the Stones, Angel eyes, Roxy Music, Stay, Bowie, I was made for loving you, Kiss, Blondie,) The list goes on.

I'm so glad u liked this left field disco tune. I am a keyboardist who plays like a guitarist. So I like to show that element from time to time.

Thanks for that, yes I had fun with this tune as I could solo in it!

I saw your grammatical synopsis on the forums, no big deal! ;-)

Awesome!

Ahh such nice words from a guitar player ehh! Much Appreciated! Roland ME-30 with a Yamaha DjX makes all the Faux-Guitar magic!

Thank You!

Aye! were all insane!

Thanks,! these actually are cheap synths thrown through expensive guitar processors to make these unique sounds. I love the experimentation of two completely different musical expressions.
Steve

Roxy has been my biggest influence in song-writing since day one. That being said, when it comes to Disco, I preferred the more artistic sounds from Roxy, Bowie, the Stones (miss you) and from the New Romantics, who took the bottom end of Disco and added synth sensibilities that exploded out of Sheffield.
Thanks for the listen and comment!

Thanks so much!
