straight from YOUR playlist
if you encounter a piece of sound so great you want to hang yourself for not being able to write something of similar quality...
if you think you've just found the best music ever made...
if you think a certain song/tune/symphony contains some unusually awesome elements...
...and you want to share it with other c64 composers and not necessarily via your facebook wall, just do it here.
explanations, reviews and so on warmly welcome.
one link per day max.
have fun. |

@Linus: Italians have great legacy in this matter :) anyways really nice lounge-y track you posted. Btw. Mario Maggi (constructor of Elka Synthex) made sound presets for Automat/Droid :)
@jssr67: I had a cassette tape with "Crystal lake" by Klaus Schultze, i classified it as 40-minutes-long-noises ;P ... seriously it's classic.
Ok, it's another day, so there's something to listen to:

Greeat topic :)
I think, that's everything I always wanted to know about orchestration:

/ Sxip Shirley, Adam Matta - Moon in Her Belly /
I was in the middle of an orchestration job when I discovered this one. Well... I burned dosens of hours on dead-ends, expanding the number of tracks about 70-80 - these guys cracked the Universe open in 2 minutes, live.
I realised that no 'just an another...' synth layer can heal the lack of a good idea ;) |

it works, lots of good finds above, way to go!
today: 'this guy sure can sing', knows his way around composition too and also played all instruments on this track. close vocal harmonies and unexpected melodic turns galore, with a pinch of psychedelia. early queen meets the zombies meets jefferson airplane.

jssr67, nice to see another Schulze lover \o/ got most of his 70s/80s work on vinyl, my favourite being "moondawn", the live drumwork is amazing on that one.
And Cresh, woot, I didn´t know Lacky has done electronic stuff at all, thanks for sharing.
Aleksi Eeben, his awesomenessness.

@jssr67: Bayreuth Return, or rather the whole Timewind album, what an amazing piece of music! One of few study helpers back in my university days :)
My piece for your enjoyment for today. Any list like this would feel incomplete for me without those guys.

Autechre "Arch Carrier" (turn on HD for acceptable sound quality).
There are many splendid tracks by Ae ("Gantz Graf" is another milestone, both audially and visually), but this one has so much emotion inside (which is strange since Autechre makes music for insects, right?! :D). I love how the spatial layers of strings creep up from behind, and how the whole track keeps unfolding itself towards the end, reaches some kind of a plateau and then just ends with an abrupt cut.
Still, it makes me smile how that organic string sounds fit together with the trademarked mathematical "no-natural-ingredients-added" Ae sonics :)
Another one for the midnight dancer in me.
By the way, if you have the opportunity, catch them live, they're brilliant. Especially if you're into mathematic deconstructions of sound in your head ;) |

Definitely a winner, this thread. Found a lot stuff I hadn't heard about yet.
While we seem to be at it, psychodelic rock anyone?
Hope it is complete this way, didn't have the opportunity to check, but from the total length it could be approximately.

just noticed that both songs i've posted to date are by musicians i had a privilege to see live. let's continue the trend for a while longer.
personally, i like it when an artist - when playing other artist's material - changes or enriches some harmonical content (reharmonization - is this a legal word?). here, we have threesome of such covers glued together live (but the transitions are so smooth it is rather unnoticeable - demomakers, you can draw some inspiration ;>). all of them far better than the originals! norman hurt - band's pianist - is mainly to blame, but give some attention to incredibly tight rhythm section as well. and of course vocal arrangements...
*disappointed she didn't play this during her 2003 warsaw gig*

erykah badu "boogie nights / all night long / funkin' for jamaica"
have to love such loud, rapid transients on drums.
in case you don't (possibly?) know her well and want some original song, do a youtube search for 'window seat' vid, where she walks naked through the city and gets shot in the end o_O |
