Made with Reason, using a number of REs and VSTs, and even my own proto-Grain solution using an NNXT and sampling. Happy to break down any sounds/effects/etc. if anyone would like.
Please take a listen when you have a moment!
Yeah, that's me singing. Thanks! I have no idea who Shaun Morgan is, but I imagine that he sounds like a real mope, too?
Hey thanks! No idea who James Yuill is, but judging from my one-minute search on wikipedia, it sounds like there might be a similarity. I'll take a listen as soon as I'm back somewhere with decent bandwidth.
Thanks! After years of vocal music, I was pretty sick of my voice, hence me mainly releasing instrumental music for the last couple of years. As for "plans", uh, I don't know? Nothing? I suppose I should post it on the FB Reason groups, and do a million other things. I'm not exactly a pillar of self-promotion, haha. Any suggestions from you are welcome!
Oh hey thanks! I really appreciate you taking the time to listen.Some Desperate Glory wrote: ↑29 Aug 2018Oh Lord, this is a fantastic EP. Listened a couple of times! May need to send you a few Canadian dollars to own up. What is it, like 4 CAD per USD? ;-D
But seriously, this is great stuff. Amazing songwriting, great voice, very interesting sound you have. It is like there is a car accident between The Postal Service, Early Radiohead, Mumford and Sons and you're the outcome. Bravo!
Hey thanks! Off-hand, I'm not sure, but the instruments are pretty clearly defined in each song; I usually only use a track if it's going to be present for a substantial portion, not just for a few hits in the song. Track 1, for example, has that NNXT sample, the 808 bass/kick, a mangled snare sample, the Red70 arpeggio, and vocals. So four tracks plus singing (seven tracks total). Track 2 has acoustic guitar, an eXpanse plucked thing, the 808 bass, another mangled snare sample, and a Solaris arpeggio, plus two vocals (again, seven tracks). So I guess it's all pretty sparse?Pingafuego wrote: ↑02 Sep 2018Excellent EP! Great singing and arranging!
How many tracks are used in each song?
Thanks so much! I really appreciate it. I’ll look out for your stuff on here so I can be jealous in return!Quiloc Lim wrote: ↑02 Sep 2018Ugh... this is so well done. The production, composition, singing, lyrics, etc.... It's really good without being over the top. I'm just trying to say I'm a wee bit jealous. Keep up the good work.
Hah, thanks! I look forward to... sci-folk? folk futurism?Troublemecca wrote: ↑07 Sep 2018not much to say that hasn't been said already... these tracks are superb, i love how you blend the acoustic with the electronic, sounds like folk music from 2045, lol
Hey thanks! I was aiming for "adult music made by adults". I'm pretty tired of "teenager music made by adults", to be honest.TheGodOfRainbows wrote: ↑25 Sep 2018"sad-sack EP" ?! Wat? This is gorgeous. I have a ways to go before I can create something this mature and, I don't know if adult is the right word, but, adult. And soulful. Great stuff.
Thanks so much! I just wanted to point out that the bass on tracks 1-3 is a Reason stock sound (I think it's called "808 bass"), and it has some nice tweakable parameters on the combinator. You should try it out!
