Members pelleyoo Posted November 14, 2004 Members Share Posted November 14, 2004 Very nice. What equipment do you have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members scubyfan Posted November 14, 2004 Members Share Posted November 14, 2004 Hey Loreman, Great tune! Dig the machinery sounds in the beginning. Where do they come from? As a whole, this sounds like something VNV Nation would do. Keep up the great work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Loreman Posted November 14, 2004 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2004 Originally posted by pelleyoo Very nice. What equipment do you have? Hello pelleyoo Thanks for that. Purlely software based for equipment - save one Roland JV30 keyboard for Midi. I'm almost exclusively using emagic for software; Logic Audio and the emagic range of plug-ins and soft synths. However I did create some of the noises and ambient clicks and blips using crystal - nifty bit of kit Cheers Loreman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The machinery sounds are a mix of some samples from the Sputnik recordings I found on a BBC cd and just general noise tinkering by me and then mixing them together. Oh and of course effected a whole lot too. I don't know of VNV Nation but I'll have to take a listen. d'you have any links? Cheers as always Scuby Laters Loreman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Purity_Control Posted November 14, 2004 Members Share Posted November 14, 2004 The first half is an excellent soundscape, the morse-code-being-tapped-on-crystals type thing is good, some nicely aggressive filter 'burns' in there too, generally good programming. The second half does sound a bit VNV Nationish, a decent bit of dancey electronica:) It's late and I'm on the laptop speakers right now, I'll give this a proper listen to tomorrow through the monitors.

Members Allerian Posted November 14, 2004 Members Share Posted November 14, 2004 Like most of your songs, it makes me want to get out a guitar, turn it up and wail. The part from 3:20 out... how do you write this stuff? Your choice of voices is always so cool and unique. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Allerian - most of the time it's blind ignorance and curiosity mixed with a small idea.... Thanks as ever - you're too kind about my stuff. Appreciated though.

Members oddbods finger Posted November 15, 2004 Members Share Posted November 15, 2004 Hi LoremanNice stuff once again.I like all the noises and stuff going on in the background.The track builds nicely too picking up the tempo as it goes along with what I think of as your trademark Electric Piano-ish arpeggios.Slightly early FSOL in feel or even '76.14' by Global Communication.

I guess I have fallen in love a little with the ol' electric piano and those arpeggios are fun to do Haven't heard those two you mention - but I'll have a look out. Thanks as always man.

Members Loreman Posted November 15, 2004 Author Members Share Posted November 15, 2004 Bye the way Purity I checked out that VNV link... er perhaps they're somewhat more, shall we say Hardcore than my stuff !!! I only listened to one called Cold and it was interesting. Dunno if I'm ready to go down that route... a bit extreme for lil' ol' moi.

Members eatsdrummachine Posted November 15, 2004 Members Share Posted November 15, 2004 headphone candy. tasteful movements of sound coming left to right and back and forth somewhere between blade runner and a soothing dream. a sweet melody after the intro becomes the glue of the track, finding footing somewhere in the kiss me kiss me kiss me era, yet firmly in the present. and just when one smells the designated techno-beat coming on, a choir of bells dances in escorted by ringo's electronik drum troup. original and comforting. it's a nice ride- a fine passage of time. and conveniently, in case there's a hitch on the way- the author has even provided power tools to help us keep things ship-shape. now THAT's service. btw- I'm pretty sure the drill is a dewault.

Members Purity_Control Posted November 15, 2004 Members Share Posted November 15, 2004 Ok, I listened to it proper. Still sounding pretty good:D I'm not sure what else to add, a great piece of ambient type music:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members alexrod Posted November 16, 2004 Members Share Posted November 16, 2004 Hi Loreman How are you? Iv been listening, I like the mod, and all sound fx, very cool, the strings sounds impressive, imponent, sounds like a premonition of a devastacion, well that is my imagination. Then comes the drums, and those pin pong sounds, i supose you are a fan of those sounds that I'v heard in others songs you made. I love the first part, and I like the way you change the mod in the next part, and i like the mix , bright and clean. It is a long song , i like you made lots of variations that keeps my attention the whole song. Have a great day Loreman:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a heavily effected bass synth. But the intent was to make them a little percussion in sound As for the 'ping pong' sounds, yep. I'm a sucker for those - it just creates the right amount of light energy I'm after. However it could be time to put those away for a while. I hadn't intended it to be so long it just sort of happened, and I'd totally forgotten about the time limit.....Ooops. OK next one will be shorter. Well cheers as always Axel. Be seeing ya. And you have a good day also. Cheers Ricardo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Tai Mai Shus Posted November 16, 2004 Members Share Posted November 16, 2004 this is some of the best i've heard from you in awhile loreman. Darker and colder but still with the loreman flair. Really a pleasure, if you could tie in a myth about robots this one would fit nicely on your cd. nicely done,eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tucktronix Posted November 16, 2004 Members Share Posted November 16, 2004 Great stuff, L-man! Love those metallic sounds in the beginning. The mix is well done and I especially like how well all the sounds meld together and as always, that Loreman mystique fills the piece with the smooth coolness that resonates through all your tracks;) Tuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you liked it. I think the myths album is done really. It's just not mixed yet as I want to do that on a more powerful computer. But I've decided I've enough material for that project. As for a narrative about robots well I have a few. Maybe an interesting theme for an album?.... We'll see. Thanks as always Eric. Will email you soon.CheersLoreman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Loreman Posted November 16, 2004 Author Members Share Posted November 16, 2004 Loreman mystique I like that Thanks Tuck. Man you all say the nicest things. It's very inspiring. I dunno if I deserve all this though, but it's very appreciated, and does help so thanks. Cheers Loreman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
