Description : It all started when I had a moment to listen to my mp3 collection of tracks and came across Fridas - There is something going on. I instantly got the feeling that this arrangement from Phil Collins is so good that I have to bring it back to todays sound without doing a remix of the old song.

So i looped the drums at the start of the original song with a slight offset which was not intended but it sounded quite cool so I decided to keep it.

I created a new arrangement that still had the old 80's vibes and browsed through looperman.com to find a siutable vocal track that I could use.

I found Come into my life a trance acapella by a user called mhyst (https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/8306/come-into-my-life-trance-acapella-by-mhyst-140bpm-trance-acapella) and decided to use a part of it.

Well, that's the story. Enjoy.

Hi!

The 80's is forever a part of my influence in music. I cannot and I will not try to get rid of it.

Who is your favorite artist from the 80"s era? And do you work in a studio?

Hi Greg!

I remember having posters of Duran Duran in my boy room during my youth. Their album Arena has formed my music influences I believe. But also The Police especially the album synchronicity and also David Bowies album Let's Dance, Alphaville - Forever young, the list goes on.

I work at home. I move around in my apartment and the pattern seem to be that the music is created in the sofa while the mixing is done in the bed. Sounds strange when i think about it.

Phil definitely has owned that reverse reverb snare sound for a long time...you sure nailed the 80s vibe here...big mix...a fine vocal by myst too...a nice journey back to the days......well done...Ed

Hi!
It sure was different back in the days. I can imagine what living as a big producer was like. Mixers, cigarettes and other unhealthy things ;)

Glad you took your time to listen and commenting.

Description : 'The main point of this song is really about the frustrations of living in the overload of today's World of Tech. The consequences are impaired communication and that if you advance too far you end up diminishing what you had to start with, so you are way worse off.' Enjoy a 60s Rhythm with a modern deep Bass, a Sitar, a Piano from EvilPianist, a lost flute from UniverseHuston and some Oscillators :-)

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.
