Done for now, need to work on something else for a bit.

jeez yeah i've been to trago, years and years ago though and i don't remember those statues. i do remember buying lots of candles. nice track.

 

Edit: i went to the one in newton abbot, i see there are three to chose from now (exciting!).

[crx091081gb]

Yeh the one in Liskeard has the sculpture park. Is such a bizarre place, I'd never been before but my Dad was always going on about it. Went with a mate to buy torch batteries before exploring some abandoned mines.

Listening back this morning I'm probably going to rework the snare rolls.

the one in devon has mini trains, awesome! if you've never been on a mini train, you've not lived.

[crx091081gb]

I have been on a mini train and it was that good, Swansea bay used to have a land train that I would grab hold of the back of and scooch a free lift on my longboard with. They didn't like that.

[MadameChaos]

haha! devon is full of mini trains it seems. we're mad for it!

[hoggy]

Spooky joyous groovyness, excellent work! After the long hypnotising soft part as the acid comes in the second time, you could maybe get more vigourous and intense with the drums and acid squerbles, maybe some alternative kinds of acid sound

Trago has it's own Aircraft division, he's like a Cornish Richard Branson.

 

Last miniature railway I went on was here

 

 

but it doesn't look a patch on Trago's.

Lovely gear man, Gunrick's at Midnight sounds sick as well!

[Guest od++]

Jazzy!! Sounds like there's a hi-q rapid pitch drop kinda sound mixed in with the snare? I dig that, but I think it's taking a little of the snap out of it?

Not sure, something to think about anyway.

Nice work, I like :)

[crx091081gb]

Yeh the snare part is the bit I'm least happy with, I don't really feel like I nailed the sound or the rolls but I had to put the track down and go do something else as I was at the 'loosing all sense of objectivity' stage of track development where you spend 4 hours tweaking something then decide you preferred it as it was.

 

The layering made the break a bit lumpy and then did all kind of things to the compressors downwind of it, it needs some re-engineering.

[Guest od++]

I know that stage all too well. There's a part later on where one of the layers is removed from the snare (at least thats what I thought happened) and it sounded really nice and snappy, might be worth trying that out on the whole track; might work really well!

smooth intro ! really like that xylophone quite alot. reminds me a little bit about move-D, some jazzy influences and really playful melodies. the snare sounds not really that nice :x but all in all it's a quite cool track dude :) lots of variation, kept my attention along the entire piece.
keep up the good work :)
Cheers

Re upped a much better mix with an extra x0x part and better rolls, snare and sub bass. Gonna spike it for now and work on a video.

 

[hoggy]

Love this track, so colourful and spacey and mysterious

[crx091081gb]

Finally made that video, watch it in HD else the compression artifacts are horrid (encoders don't like it when you detach the colour channels and scale each one separately while constantly cycling the palette - I don't think they're geared for it).

 

[Guest mrajh]

great going man :D

[Guest andromeda]

cool little track, i like it a lot. very interesting melodies

Those balloon things are awesome
