I cut up some of the EM samples to make the drums for this.
It's just an idea, and it's not exactly a 3/4 concrete piece. We could expand on it, edit it or throw it in the virtual bin. Let us know what you think either way.
I think it sounds fantastic! Is a well good starting point. We could find some more drummy sounds in E.M. to give it a bit more of a punch. I miss though a longer track from the fader test recordings, especially those with crazy panning. I don't know where it will feet? maybe in the drop...
What is the lead melody? is it also something from our recordings? And the reverb? is it from logic? I think we could manage to get a good reverb effect in the metal room feeding the track through a guitar amp or a monitor (or maybe both) and record it with a couple of 414 or coles. Just to give it more E.M. touch.
Thanks Jordi, the synths and reverb are all from Ableton, I kept the bpm the same as the logic session we had running. So if needs be it can all easily be bounced out into Logic with or without reverb.
Although I would suggest that we get this finished as soon as we can, bv the end of next Wednesday preferably. We can draw a line under it and get on with the other 2 songs which I think will take more time and effort.
The band and or choir really need to in on Wednesday to stand a chance of doing a decent job by the deadline
Totally agree. But we still have 4 E.M. sessions to go on wednesdays.
The choir will be something completely outside E.M. as I would prefer to record it in a nice location, so that give us 4 sessions to share between the E.M. concrete and the band.
Although I will be up to make a planning for the next session so that we get maximum profit of our sessions. I really fancy experiment with the metal room or the plate reverb in E.M. to get a reverb effect. Also I would prefer that all the sounds of the song are coming from our recordings in E.M. so we would have to find a sound to reproduce the lead synth: maybe more feedbacks or pitch the ones that we already have and sample them, ESX24 is really good for that.
I agree with Jordie the songs entirety made from confetti, also it will be all recorded by the end of next sesh. then it just takes a person or two to edit on a mac. while the rest of the group crack on with the other recrodings.
I also think as much of it as possible should be done with stuff from Confetti, however I also think that it my sound a bit thin on the ground without a pad and or lead. They don't have to be the focus of course, but I don't think we should limit ourselves.
Running everything through the plate would be a great thing to do, even if the sound itself doesn't originate from there.
The kick drum sound in this needs some work, although the sort of afro-beat sound it has right now is growing on me.
Hi Chris,

That's the whole point! find this bits is music concrete! I am absolutely sure we are gonna be able to find them.
ReplyDeletevery nice, like the Chiptunne woops bits, but yeah need more EM sounds in there, we can possible use what we did the other session
