My God! you never stop man!

I think i love you man :o You're just the man!
Such beautiful music, with such a unique style, which know one has.. !! Elements within the composition are so progressive... More of a story, then a song, and each song has its one little tale. The middle 8 going into the 2nd drop has got so much tension on this one.

Soul Motive need to bring out some of your music, i would love to get my hands of some of it.

I would like to know how much of these piece of music is acoustic, and how much is programmed?

Can i get a AMEN ... :z:

Much respect

Thanks for such kind words.
It's all programmed, it's either all synths, drum samples, string/horn/other instrument multisamples. I use instrument melody lines in alot of tunes, but in this tune it's just programmed because I have control over the exact melodies.

The lead line I would have originally played in on a keyboard, and then edited/quantized. Sometimes I hum a melody in, and then score over the top.

Good looking out, this is a beautiful crisp version. I love it! Still looking forward to a 320 if you give them out.

All programmed... dam, i thought you would the be first person, if given the to chance to record all you instrument live, hence the live feel. You must be really good with working on dimensions of a mix, great use of reverb and delay.

What DAW to you progromme your music in? Logic?

Once again... fantastic music.

Thats good!

Some how... i have none of your music on my PC :o None... I must have missed all the 320 chances :(
(other then the soul motive release you have)

As for me the first half of this tune sounds like it's gonna drop every second...building up BIG tension there...but this kinda annoyed me...till the second half...it blew my mind....totally beautiful....this track has to be heard full length otherwise it sounds kind of building up but never reaching a zenith...
well done man
let me know of you're handing out any 320

I would record live instruments but I don't really have the money for good mics/recording environment to do so.
Also I'm not that amazing any instrument, I can play the trumpet a bit and the piano/keyboard a bit. Trumpet will proberably be the first thing I start to record once I get the tuning slide unstuck.

Oh BTW, about Deep Red Sun, sorry it's taking a while it should be out soon.

Always feeling the Coleco productions! :W: T

This is fukin fresh and deep. Feel like I'm watching the sunset at the pyramids in Egypt. People who don't even know what dubstep is will just call this great music. Props.

the middle build is so nice.


People been wandering where you been.
