It's been a while (real life keeps poking its nose in, as it does...) but here's my latest effort:
http://k006.kiwi6.com/hotlink/2eqi33jg7 ... tsSong.mp3
A bit techno, a bit house, a bit of a struggle to get it done - it's been rewritten twice, rearranged god knows how many times, but then one day I nudged the tempo up just a couple of BPM and all of a sudden it started coming together. Funny old game innit?
Another track for the album - only two more to go now
As always, all comments welcome - hope you like it

Thanks Matt, glad you liked it The vocoder I used was Sonic Charge's BitSpeek which is (like any Sonic Charge product) tremendous fun. In fact the only thing I didn't change about this track was my determination to have a vocodered phrase or two somewhere in there

I absolutely loved this.
Going back for a third listen now
Was listening to Ozric Tentacles immediately before it, and this could slot straight into that album (Paper Monkeys) without any effort whatsoever.

Great track, Mike. I love that slow build intro followed by the OT-style bits. Lovely synth sounds used on here, and a great drop at 2:35. I listened to this late yesterday and again tonight. Great music to wind-down to. Dreamy sounds.
Good work

Thanks for listening MM, and for the compliments - I'll have to check out that album. My stuff's been compared to the Ozrics before (which is nice praise) but I'm really not that familiar with their music. The only explanation I can think of is shared influences - Gong(Daevid Allen/Steve Hillage era), Hawkwind and Tangerine Dream from the 70s, Detroit Techno and Drum'n'Bass from the 90s...Mushy Mushy wrote:I absolutely loved this.

Thanks Tim - I used my new ACE on this one. Not sussed out enough to get beyond presets yet, but it does make a lovely noise. The main pad comes from UltraAnalog, which is another favourite synth.seismic1 wrote:Great track, Mike. I love that slow build intro followed by the OT-style bits.

hey neil, thanks for listening, glad you enjoyed it. Yup, just two more tracks to go, plus a remix of the opening track, and the album will be finished - and only a year later than plannedmacmurphy wrote:i really enjoyed this. so there's an album coming soon eh? excellent

It's a good job I don't do this for a living...
...on the other hand, I'd be very svelte...

Another happy listener here
It wasn't me! (well, actually, it probably was) - apparently now an 'elderly' so maybe I forgot!
