Hello, good sir. I hope you are well.

I really enjoyed doing this one. I felt like it kept coming out like I was hearing in my head. I spent a lot more time with the VI's in this. Several lines of automation, which I almost never use. 1 in 10 tracks may have automation.

"The (high bass) guitar riff around 2:00 is a killer one"

Thanks. It was an odd one to play. A and D strings, up around 10 and 12, but I tune Drop C#, so it would be a half step higher.

Thank you for the kind words, consistent presence and appreciation of that sweet, sweet thang we call Bass Guitar.

Take care.

Evan

Grazie Domenico - per i commenti gentili. Much appreciated.

Steve Vai deserves more spamking then

Ciao Thanks man.I always appreciate such feedback.

Monsieur Loup.
Merci for the nice comments. "Whip" drum was my attempt at something new.

"Moving carpets" is a cool expression for the Pads.
"exactly half of the number-of-the-beast ... wow! firs the witches ...now this...what are you doing to me Cru?)"

As someone who doesn't believe in fairy tales, I assure you the 3:33 is just a coincidence. (Or is it Muoooohhhhhaaaaaahhhaaaaa.sic evil laughter fades out into a seriously dark reverb panned hall)

"Also the scales you are playing create little dissonances which prepare perfectly the chords in the next section."

Good Catch, I solo'ed in Fm over a Cm scale.

"PS: have you noticed that you are dangerously moving into the zone of MrNomad track's duration? ;-)"

Ahh no fears as most of his works are twenty minutes long chopped into segments. Myself I wrote this long before I listened to his work and I think I have only recorded one tune that exceeds the twenty minute mark.

ood to hear from you
Ciao

Cru..(666...illuminati....redrum...) Sorry bout that...don't know what came over me....oh yes I do...irrationality...good day. ;-)

Thanks for the input my friend. It is appreciated. I agree with the ending comment. Needs to be reworked.

Thanks for taking the time to listen and for leaving feedback.

hey Domenico. it would be interesting to express a fog shrouded concrete buildings as opposed to a forest. trying to think what would be different. I'm happy if you felt some connections between music and art. will continue to refine this one for a while. best regards - Dan

Thanks...Mr.
Tormented...Have not heard that in a long time, " I was very much so"
not so much any more these days... :-)

All the guitar sounds and the drums, are the ( Digitech-RP355 )
this was one of the first tracks, I did with this Processor...
It has about 40 different Drum Kits and all the variations there of
sound wise...
Now I just use the click track, to lock BPM's to a track...
Every now and then I may use a cymbal crash or something
but that's it...For Drums now I use the Alesis-SR18 much more
flexible in every way...

Glad you enjoyed the track...

Peace...TG.

thanks to you Domenico for your Reply

Thank you! :) This is a VST plugin. Nexus 2 Guitar Expansions.

Thanks, Domenico! I definitely am considering redoing this sucka! haha :P Glad you stopped in.

Hey, Domenico.

If you were repeating yourself saying "very bad track", then I would worry.

I wanted to get back to the bass guitar. Ever since I got the six-string, it's been my Sirenum Scopuli. I've been drawn to it every day, and the bass has been a bit neglected.

Glad to not have overdone it. I was right on the edge of that.

Thanks for the listen and the kind words.

Thank you so much, Domenico. Always a pleasure to receive your comments. So glad you can appreciate our little team as we all enjoy working with eachother.

Ciao,
M.

Hey Domenico,

Really glad you like it and took the time to comment. Being a drummer, I have always loved a bass and drum break-down in a good funk or rock song. Glad you do also.

Cheers,
Scott

Thanks so much! Yes Sansamp w pro-tools

Greetings.

Yes, something a bit different for me, as is always my aim Probably because of the use of all these drum loops and more of a focus on chillout dance music. But still some of my signature sounds in there eg the slide solo.

The filtered, arpeggiated (bowed) violins you can hear in quite a few of my tracks. Pretty much the same sound but always playing different melodies. Some of the very best are in here, especially in the last 90 seconds - my favourite section. That's just a return to violin parts heard earlier in the track but this time I do more with them.

"My favorite moment: ~3:00 ... this is very 80s"

Aha, I think you have chosen the funk section as your favourite. I'm not hearing it as being particularly 80s but I did enjoy playing that delicate clean funk stuff. Lots of chopping up and reordering of the bass and guitar parts but the end result is good, though not perfect.

"you know that the last "unwanted notes" fit nicely in the fade-out?"

I still haven't got round to removing those export error notes. Here's what they are:

Listen to 3:15 and you will hear some gentle high notes come in. That's an arpeggiated sequence heard a few times afterwards. It plays all the time, I just fade the volume up when I want it to be heard.

On export, the last second had the volume of that part mistakenly turned up so that's why it's heard. Yes, that sequence could easily fit in the outro but I'm not sure it's necessary. I have since thought of a way I could include those notes but I don't think I need to. That sequence is heard enough in other parts of the track so it's important not to overdo it.

Yes, the distinctive basslines probably do have the Nomad touch. That same bass synth patch can be heard in lots of my tracks but it doesn't seem to get boring. It's really just a very useful bass sound and it's the main bass in the jazz metal track I'm still working on (it used to be part of this track).

Bassline starting at 5:45 keeps reminding me of New Order's Blue Monday - probably one of the greatest club tracks ever made. And it's by a proper band so it's much more interesting than most dance tracks.

Glad you liked this one as I thought maybe it wouldn't be your sort of thing. I thought maybe there was too much synth and not enough guitar for you.

It may be a while till my next upload as I'm working on a few difficult tracks right now and am far off completing any of them.

See you around...

Yeah, Bootsy is cool but expensive!

Domenico I could have not done it with out you. Your Bass playing is great!, and it fits so nicely with the tune.
I can not thank you enough for your assistance with this tune.
Your bass track made the song.
