Description : Howdy all.
First, I broke role again to delete a song. So I apologize to those 4 who's stuff was lost. Second, genre-wise, I have absolutely no idea. Just gonna wing it and throw it into Techno for now.
Alright, so XxYoung and I have kinda been hintin at doin a collab for the past few weeks and a few days ago he emailed me a couple of loops that he was thinkin I could tinker with.
And that's exactly what I did. At first I was kinda havin trouble thinkin about how I'd build 'em up into a song. Then I thought, 'Why not see if I could add 'em to a project that I've already got started?'. Well, earlier I was file scanning and this one in particular caught my eye. So I punched it up and...
Color me a Blue nosed Gopher, it seemed to fit right in on the first time go around. So I spent a few hours messin with the loops he sent me- Modifying 'em to add a little extra spice. And VOILA!
The name came from a vision I've had for a while now to honor those guys who risk their lives all the time so our stuff doesn't get toasty (or a cat doesn't starve up in a tree or a wrecked car don't 'Splode with the person still pinned inside). Hey, I kinda like that- Sssplode, haha, got my next track name right there YAY!
Anyways, so I built what I had up around that concept (of Fire trucks and station alarms). And Young's Lords of Acid-like synths served to round out the equation nicely.
What you hear now is only half of what's in store for this baby. So keep yer eyes & ears peeled, this'll surely continue down a path of running lights and sirens blaring. Hope yall dig this little creation of ours. Later on!
PS. I know the levels on this
are gonna need to be polished
later, coz right now it's kind of
unmastered.

That was a very, very nice ride. Really liked the transitions in the piece as well as its unceasing momentum. Had me moving.

ok so where to start? haha! i really like the track and the direction that you took with it. i like the shifts and the beats and the bass and all that good jazz but just in my opinion it feels kind of like its missing 1 aspect and i don't really know what that aspect is so my opinion doesn't really matter but i just kind of feel like its missing one thing and then it'll be perfect. its a really great track though definately keep it up and i can't wait to hear more!

DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Prech that mate. As for the missing element could it be how this track lacks any form of pad? I'm thinkin it's either that or the drums could be a little stronger. Eh, I dunno, at any rate. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Man the into shifts grooves like 5 times, real cool. I like how u arranged that. I like that synth around 1:25...kinda reminds me of fire truck(maybe u planned it to be as such.) I would like to hear a low pounding bass to accentuate the groove, but u did a good job doing that with the high synths
DonnieVyros
DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Cool deal mate. Yeah, the name on this was something that I had decided upon back when I first started mixing it ages ago. And it's because of the way the synths on this reminded me of fire trucks, alarms, and such. As for now, I think this track is as done as it's gonna get. Sah sent me the first few loops and then the project kinda stalled. At any rate, I'm glad ya dug it. Later on!

need some rad extrasoudz but on level of copz.
yo checkmy fl studio hangin on remix when u getthe chance
let me know whats up 1

DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Haha, I got u there twice.
As for mine, yeah, I'm thinkin that doin a tribute to the Police would be keen too (sorta started the siren emulation way back on my song GloSticks (raver mix) years ago). Though if I did one it'd be all-out, ya know- CB scanner radio chatter, sirens, news reports, etc. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

OOOooh, I love the little funky plucky bass that you got goin on. This track definitely rolls so far, I like the way it ebbs and flows. Can't say I like firefighters though, I'm sorry, they stood by while the cops assaulted me during a grand mal seizure -trauma ya know. Great track so far though! Thanks for sharing!
DonnieVyros
DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Yeah, that kinda sux, but that's one of the downsides to any uniform service. Side one, it's all about following orders. Side two, is the whole 'brothers in arms' thing that kinda teams everyone up to watch out for one another.
As for the track, I could prolly rename it 'fire truck' coz of the way it moves. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Whats up!? Tripped out track you guys got here. Im thinking about starting a competition "Jack Of All Trades". Mabey you will be interested. Im trying to make a comp that focuses on getting people to work on music outside their comfort zone/genre they normally stick with. Oh yeah and I was thinking it should be in two man teams to kinda cross pollinate through out looper land. The interested parties would lock in their spots in the comp and I will check their tracks and choose something that they dont normally do. Then comes the fun part! The users that are locked into the comp that have their genre chosen by me or whoever helps me with this comp get to choose a teamate(smart people might want to choose a teammate that specializes in that genre) Not only does this have the potential to draw EVERYONE in but it also get users from different genres to collab where they probablly wouldnt have under normal circumstances. It was just an Idea Ive mention to you and a few other people. Tell me what you think. Mabey I could get you to help me out with this since you are a mod and all.
DonnieVyros
DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Yeah mate,
That sounds like a pretty solid plan. Maybe I could make it the next Stage2 mission or somethin (unless you were wantin to start this).
Oh, and I almost forgot- about the thing I mentioned for the other song.
Yeah we could do .wavs and I was thinkin we could also do the entire .mp3 (dunno if your prog can mess with those though). Lemme know if that sounds cool to you. Off for now. Lates!

That intro is tight! I feel some progressive house coming on.

I know what it needs!

A dirty sidechained electro super fat bassline!

It could make a world of difference in this.

Great track!

I hear ya lil bro.
In fact, I might just shoot that idea over to Young. I'm thinkin that if he did 'em they'd sound super sweet. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Prech that mate. Have you ever seen Beat Street? I kinda draw inspiration to make dif stuff because of the scene where he's showin his GF the way he mixes. And I was thinkin Fire trucks and such are pretty cool for audio templates. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

I won't go on about Firefighters..they all deserve a medal...period!.........This track is ripping along with some cool half steps thrown in...having read your description this will be even better when you include some Fx sirens..and general background mayhem....it's a great Techno rhythm..I've heard enough of the various electronic genres to get a fair idea of the different sub classes within it,and this baby is slamming along with all hoses blasting!...cheers mate :)
DonnieVyros
DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Yeah, they do. And this is my small way of giving back. Sadly, the track kinda took a back seat to other stuff that's been goin on, but I just emailed Young earlier askin him if we could pick things up again.
As for genres, well, on that one I'm beat. I don't think there's anything that this can fall into accurately. It breathes a life of its own. Just like they do. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Hi DV, I really like this track, lots of exciting elements in it, Makes me want to collab with you sometime. I liked the how this song was quite subtle, everything flowed very well and was quite smooth, even though the synths were quite powerful. I liked the almost atonal harmony at 1:30ish, gave the song a different vibe, a good vibe.
Well done to you and XxYoung.

P.S, I really enjoyed reading the desc. You have a definate way with words.
DonnieVyros
DonnieVyros replied Unknown
Yeah, this was started around the same time Manipulation was, back when I had just got the prog I made 'em with. The fast forward to last year and I tried picking it up again, but it felt empty. Even as intense as it is. It wasn't until I got the loops from Young that I felt that it was finally filled & ready to step out. Right now we're just in a waiting pattern for him to whip up those pads and it'll enter the next phase of it's evolution. In fact, I think the atonal harmony you refer to is one of the loops he sent me.
As for the collab, maybe one of these days, ya know. If ya got any projects that you'd be interested in seeing what I can do shoot 'em to me, cool?
As for the desc, thanks. I always try to be accurate and full with 'em. They support the song I think. Later on!

Rawk on brah. I got the loops ya sent me the other day and like last week I plan on messin around with this track during the weekend. Speaking of which, have you whipped up anything new for this? Oh, and lemme know if ya want me to send you some of the loops from my side of this. Later on!

Haha, thanks Neil. I always try to hit it on the head with the descs. As for the track, I figured I should try to go big considering it's name. Glad ya dug it. Later on!

Hey CG,
Thanks mate, yeah, I'm with you there. I've got it in mind for Young to do the high end stuff (like the pads) and I was gonna go n add some more basses & such. Will post in the forums when this is done. Lates!

Mysterious intro continued by a hypnotic yet very energetic trip through different techno productions. I have at least 2 more techno parts to add and a few more scary booby traps. All together a 3/4 more mins to stack behind it. After that i'll run through the piece again, finalize mixing, master it and upload incl. download. Any feedback is welcome! MMMMMMMH FRESH MEAT!
