omnii Posted March 18, 2017 Share Posted March 18, 2017 Hello, i just recently finished a track that seems to be heavily influenced by much of the music i saw Aphex Twin play at Day for Night in Houston. The strongest examples i could give would be Jlin, Qebrus and Sd Laika. I hope you guys enjoy!https://soundcloud.com/dollarstore-keyboard/cult-45 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhitleyStriber Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Totally love this track. I played it on the We are the dreamers radio show just a few minutes before. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lada Laika Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Really impressed with your stereo image on this one. It's so wide I could get lost in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omnii Posted June 29, 2017 Author Share Posted June 29, 2017 I uploaded a new track to soundcloud. It's way faster and cleaner than what i usually produce. I'm really happy with the result but i only finished it up a couple days ago, and it came together very fast. I'd love to hear your thoughts!! https://soundcloud.com/dollarstore-keyboard/pnumber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auditor Posted June 29, 2017 Share Posted June 29, 2017 Cult 45 is fucking great. Pnumber didn't do much for me. Checking out some of your album on SC and you're all over the place. I dig it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dig it Thanks so much! Cult 45 is one of my favorites. I usually spend way more time on my tracks than i did on Pnumber, i'm still considering going back and seeing what else i can come up with. I might even scrap all the melodies and build something else over the beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnii Posted June 30, 2017 Author Share Posted June 30, 2017 Glad to hear that! It felt oddly vulnerable uploading this because it feels more clean and minimal compared to what i usually put out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lada Laika Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I like the noodly half-formed feel to Pnumber. I think it definitely has the potential to be a righteous track with a little more variety. The vibes it's got going for it are just great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omnii Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 Hello there! My MPC stopped functioning so i have dipped my toe in to making percussion on software. On this track I am using an FM drum synth called 'Ephemere' by Inear display. The live synths are from my MS-20 mini with a dash of Moog Sub 37 and Volcakey/beats. The effects are mostly Inear display VST's like 'Amalgame' and 'Gorgon'. Everything was either sequenced on a Beatstep Pro or played live. I'd love to get some feedback on this one!

I hope you guys enjoy! https://soundcloud.com/dollarstore-keyboard/cult-45 Love the unsettling sounds and the slide strings, reminds me of Angelo Badalamenti's themes from the other world on Fire Walk With Me.

omnii Posted September 9, 2017 Author Share Posted September 9, 2017 Hello LemonMelon, thanks for listening and reaching out! I'm currently trying to find the Badalamenti music you refer to online. I should probably just watch the film! I loved the first season of Twin Peaks and have been meaning to make the time to take in the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnii Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) Hello friends! My 2 most recent tracks have been mixed and mastered by Qebrus at his ExolabZ studio, i put them together into a little single because i was excited to get them out to the world. I will link both soundcloud and bandcamp for your clicking pleasure!

omnii Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) I'm surprised at the caliber of feedback i have been getting over this ambient track i posted. I think it's good, I guess sometimes i forget i'm not the only person who likes ambient music. It was made with an array of samplers looping on a kaoss pad with some live guitar played on top. This one has downloads enabled. https://soundcloud.com/dollarstore-keyboard/clarkwork-2 Edited January 6, 2018 by omnii Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auditor Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Nice! Drinking coffee and watching birds in my backyard and this made a great soundtrack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omnii Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 Thanks! I'm thinking i should be finishing and sharing more tracks like this in the future. This was part of an abandoned ambient record i was trying to put together. I was going to call it "Selected Ambien Works Volume I". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omnii Posted February 19, 2018 Author Share Posted February 19, 2018 I have been working nonstop the last couple weeks on a tribute to Qebrus using sample packs he produced. He was a huge inspiration to me and also a generous and kind friend. When i started making this i didn't really have high hopes of coming up with anything i'd be satisfied with. Something came over me as soon as i had the samples loaded up and i did the majority of this in a day and have been mostly refining it since. I hope you like it, i feel weird putting out something that is supposed to pay tribute to such a brilliant mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to hear your thoughts!! https://soundcloud.com/dollarstore-keyboard/pnumber harmony and melody wise it's pretty cool, i just think the bass and the beats are not strong enough. rhythmically speaking the beats are quite entertaining but the samples used could be stronger or dirtier i guess. the bass's rhythm is a bit disjointed and the sound used for it is also too flat imo... anyway great job. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about the bass and beats not being strong enough on Pnumber and i actually sent that track to Qebrus to master. He told me "This track is really good! Sounds like some Tuss" and i told him that was the best thing anyone had ever said to me. Maybe you'll like this one more! Some of the subtlety is lost but it sounds pretty huge. https://soundcloud.com/dollarstore-keyboard/pnumber-exolabz-mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising for burgers Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) yeah lovely beats definitely, but that melodie always playing 1/4 really needs some variation to make it groovy or something...
