Polyslax - Die By Wire

[Genetic_Junk]

Thanks any1!

I sleep as little as possible in fact, always felt it was a bit of a waste. I put the blame for this track squarely on the shoulders of µTonic though. I wasn't looking to do a track, just figured I'd create some kits and patterns. Then I hit on the main perc rhythm and think... maybe I'll just add a little bass to that... then piano... then...

lol...Matt! I knew it! You don't SLEEP! You are like a mad scientist that has a obsessive compulsive thirst for all things music-(especially electronic?)!!! Obviously you are quite passionate about it.

Your music has such a nice clear quality to it. I would love to sit and watch you perform your majic.

µTonic? Oh boy. Now I may have to get it-help!!!!

Peace.

Thanks Chuck! Hehehe, yeah, I've always been a 4-6 hours max sleeper, and music, well I just find it endlessly fascinating. I like all kinds of music. Guitar is my home base, and I grew up on a steady diet of rock, blues and soul/funk. These days my listening bounces all over the map, from electronic to classical to electro-acoustic to 70s pop to blues...

Same with me, unless I've done lots of physical labor the day before. I like to get up early and work on a song. Though those days will be ending soon with new responsibilities.

So those nice melodic sounds come from µTonic too, versatile instrument.

Neat sounding intro, reminds of a sound effect from bladerunner. Echoboy on the piano?

Thanks again Junk! For many years I would get up in what would be the middle of the night for a sane person... talking like somewhere between 2:30 and 3:30 am... and start working on music. These days I find it's more like 4 or even 5 am before I drag myself out of bed.

The piano is done on 3 tracks. Two tracks are playing the same part, one with just eq, the other with eq, FilterFreak and EchoBoy. The third track plays a different part and has eq and ValhallaShimmer on it.

Fascinating as always, interesting to hear the Microtonic part in isolation too. I love that instrument, but for some reason I've never started a track with it. Maybe it's time I did...

I admire/envy your work/sleep balance, but with advancing age my skin's elasticity is such that it would take a good 24 hours before the giveaway
QWERT
ASDF
ZXCV
pattern would fade away from the left side of my face...and drool makes a real mess of the keyboard
