Title: Warps: new IDM(?) piece
Post by: Frederik on April 09, 2007, 07:08:41 PM
Hi guys, just found out this "new auditorium" place...
It's good to see so many great folks of the old auditorium are here too!

About the track: it's a combination of several synths and beats, and, very important: slow strings to add "dramatical" quality.
It's intended to sound wide and big in spots; hope its does so...

All comments and suggestions welcome!

bye,

frederik

Welcome to the "New Auditorium" Frederik
I'm glad you join us here
This new tracks of yours is really nice. A great main melody that glues the different parts.
Good breaks and wise song structure.
I particularly like your choice of sounds.

Cheers

this does indeed seem different for you, as others have stated. I see you have a question mark next to IDM. I take it that you are asking if thats what this is? I'm not really an expert on electronic genres as there are far too many with far too little to diferentiate between them fo this uninformed ear. i have always taken IDM to mean sortof strange undancable music. More of the head than of the body. I'm not sure I'd call this that as it does have an identifyable rhythm to it an it does border on being pretty dancable at points. But, really, what the hell do i know? It wa certainly a pleasant listen whatever it is. Thanks for sharing it man. It's good to see you found your way here.  ;D

thanks for all the replies!

Guess I'm one of the latest to find this new place... I've always known I wasn't that clever and fast. But boy, this time I really am late  ;)

about the track: glad most of you like it, and glad that I can still surprise you ;-)
Of course this isn't a new basis style for me - that is, I still do make things in call kinds of styles...
I just made (part of) a classical things I'll upload next. And then I have some noisy guitar thing I'm working on too... can't wait to maybe surprise you more  ;D

bye,

frederik

Hi Frederik.

Yeah, maybe IDM-ish because of the big low end. You've done that well. But IMO maybe a bit more score-ish than IDM because of the comp. It sounds very good to me overall. btw, I'm not surprised...not yet. So bring it on  ;)

A personal catchup since we haven't talked for a while. I've decided to take up guitar (lessons), but I thought I'd be a lot better after three weeks than I am ;D Actually, all I've really to show for my effort so far is callouses. But I'm thankful for that!!! Reminds me of a song...Boney Fingers..."work your fingers to the bone, what do you get? Boney fingers"  ::)

btw, I still owe you one. So if there's ever anything I can add to your tunes, let me know. 

F.

Yep this is different from your usual stuff Frederik, but i remember really liking the odd electronic tracks you did in the past. IDM is a strange catagory as it encompasses such a wide range of genres itself. I suppose you could call this IDM, but in the end what matters is if it's good or not and this is very good. It still has your sig stamped on it in the way you structure your compositions. This sounds like the type of electronica track Bach migyt have made had he had the tools.  Good one.   :)

thanks, CypherOne, Fred and Blipp!

@ fred: good to hear from you!
hope you'll stick to the guitar playing even if things may gow a bit slower at the start then you expected ;-)
I've started playing in some kind or (embrionic) band, and I'm doing some of the guitar work theri two (in fact for the momemt we are just to guitar players of which one can sing - and yep, that's not me - , a bass player, and two potential background singing girls).
We're still searching a bit for some kind of direction, but it is laready fun to do, and a nice counterpart for making music with computer.
If ever anything valuable comes out I might pot it here ;-)

@ Blipp: yep, I remember you encouraged me to do some more of my strange electronic stuff in the past. So for you one of my next post might be interesting too, 'cause it will be another strange semi-electronic piece I'm working on right now  :)

bye,

frederik

That sounds great, frederik  8)   There's nothing like making music in a group. I look forward to hearing some tunes  ;D
