I haven't posted a track for a while now, but I'm pretty pleased with this. Comments/criticism welcome. Thank you for listening. |

downloading it big boy what else of yours would you recommend that's NOT on your cd or that 10 second "horse piano" track? :) |
||||||||

Since the last tracks on that CD were completed I've done another track called "water (demo)" that I think is pretty good, but that is on xltronic vibes 7 (so everyone should have it ;). The only other one I've ULed (I'll put it back up now) was made as a birthday present for Tibbar. The other stuff is mainly long ambient tracks too big for Zebox to accept (I should get around to putting them on my mp3.com site). I've got a couple of new Illbient pieces too, but I don't like them enough to UL them. Other than that I've got a load of drum and bass tracks (which will probably be released autumn/winter next year, one way or another) which I want to master properly before I make extracts of them available. I've started a new resolution to finish at least 10 (this is the first) of the 200 or so unfinished tracks on my HD before starting any new ones, so I should have some more stuff to UL soon. If you've got horsePiano you've probably already got "Vanilla Hub"? |

"Tibbar's Birthday Snooze" is now also up, same site... |
||||||||
|
|

|

never heard of "vanilla hub".. i'll check out the new uploads, thanks |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

Vanilla Hub is now available at my site. There's also another old track there (a remix of a track by Flea) called "UTFM (Quenched Mix)", the full name of which is Unquenchable Thirst For Milk (Quenched Mix). I know you're not a fan of V. Snares type stuff so you may not like this. |

i love vsnares i just don't love anything that is trying to be like vsnares. i'll check it out anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ha ha, it's actually a really old track from before Snares was as famous as he is now (certainly before I'd DLEd anything by him at least). |
||||||||
|

Bump as about 10 new people are on. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

i can't believe i haven't heard any of your music before - good thing the files are small. *downloading* btw, could you check out some of the music in my thread(s)? thanks. :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aw, ceri... i still love that track so much... it really was such a nice way to fall asleep on my b-day!!! ill always cherish it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I recommend Silo ATp2003 mix... the other stuff is pretty dated, just put up for titsworth. If you like any particular tracks let me know and I'll put similair ones up for you. I think I did check out one of your tracks a while back, but I've not heard any of your recent stuff. I'll go and add em to my favourites and check 'em out tommorow night. Tibbar, I'm glad you like it... I must admit it does find its way into my "sleeping" playlists with alarming regularity. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i remember you saying it wasnt finished when you gave it to me. i dont know... it kinda just IS what it is. i cant see more or less there. simple but effective. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
good good. almost finished with siberia... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
this track is FUCKING superb - i dig the mix of fly beats and stellar ambience. Quite a chillout and plenty of good variety - nice layering too. stellar - i'm downloading another now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, this is very chill... especially since ive been listening to faster more eager stuff all night. *starts to get sweepy* |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cheers mate :) I did the synth line about a month ago and was really pleased with it... was considering having it purely as a SAW2 type thing, but I stumbled across a breakbeat that seemed to fit it and I re-arranged it, added a drum machine, generally fiddled etc. to get it as it is. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like the end where it skips... *puts on repeat* ill have to give it further listens to give a full report of my findings |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw, are those oriental instrumentations i'm hearing intermittently in the track? (violins etc)? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tibbar: Yes, the end bit is my favourite too... took almost as long sorting out the last 2 bars as the whole of the rest of the track. Oddioblender: Its a slightly EQed violin, playing flats and sharps- hence the oriental sound :) I'm off to bed now guys, but feel free to post any comments and I'll check in tommorow. Thanks to the folks who listened! |

excellent track Ceri, I didn't even notice the song was finished as I had my winamp on repeat so it kept playing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listened to Silo - a nice atmospheric and dark ambient track. Solid. :D |

I was so engrossed in reading my book, Tolstoy's "the resurrection" (neglected it for the past week) that all I heard of your track was the cymbal crash at the end! :D I will pay more attention next time I listen to it I promise! |
||||||||

tibbar's birthday snooze is beautiful.. i can even hear some breathing (snoozing?), too, nice touch your new trip-hop track is beautiful too.. the drum patterns are a little bland and the synth strings are a bit too early massive attack-ish but as a whole it works well and i like it.. nice mark snow x-files-ish little sounds |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the other 2 tracks are excellent as well, how long have you been making music? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wait, you call this shit "MUSIC"?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
;P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
:) "vanilla hub" is nice too in an autechre/vangelis bladerunner kinda way |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i like it yo! no complaints other than it needs more cowbell. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think you need some nuts :P |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

very nice man I like the melodies and chords good choice of sounds too the panning on the drum kinda does my head in... its kind of akward imo... (esp with headphones). but then again, im not a big fan of hard pans... makes a part sound empty sort of. I dunno. But I also like the last little drum outro at the end... unpexted, but pleasent now, I think you just need a tight bassline. I think it would really tighten up the track and make it more dynamic. But its very good! These are just my personal ideas... Cheers mate! |

holy jesus unexpected christ. gotta lay off the hard stuff |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hello can I kiss your arse too :P Only joking...I like this...could be a remix of that Aphex Track that it reminds me of but I can't remember which one it is because I have been out HAVIN IT LARGE MATE. Nice wind down track, very nice, very nice indeed. I like your music. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

siberia is a very pretty track! but it seems so short at about 2 and a half minutes. and it feels like it ends rather abruptly, like you just said 'fuck it, it ends NOW!'. hehe. it's good though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
listened to Nilla Hub.......and i have to say i really LOVED the first 1:40 minnows of the track.....but the last part just kinda lost me there......ehheheheh i'll give you my thoughts on the others =0) |

Bump for the "day people" and to answer questions :) Tibbar: Yes, I sort of finished it quickly so I could give it to you for your BD and intended to go back to it and do another mix of it, but I like this version too much now and don't wanna change it :) Titsworth: Tibbar's Birthday Snooze - Without wishing to sound smug, I made all the sounds in it from one synth patch running in series through an fx chain, even the breathing/snoring comes from the same bit as the melody. It wasn't an accident either... I tried to get it to "snore" and succeded :D Marlowe: Thank you for the in depth comments... Perhaps I should consider turning down the cymbal volume? :P X-tomatic: Cheers man! I've been doing computer/electronic music for about 5 years on an off, but I started doing it "seriously" (as in how often I do it, not how much pride I have in it!) almost exactly two years ago. Unfortunatley, all my stuff prior to those two years was lost so all my early noodlings are not around anymore :( Zeus: Yes, the panning on the drums is something I was unsure of. It does annoy me a bit on 'phones, but I like it on speakers. The panning on them was originally a lot harder (it's now in about 1/5 of the stereo range it pans...) Cheers for the comment about the bassline, I'm intending to do at least one remix of it so maybe it'll find it's way in there! BTW, what does "christ. gotta lay off the hard stuff" refer to? You been doing coke before listening to tracks again? ;) Dozier: The remix should take care of the "length problem" (oo er missus!) It occurs to me that I still haven't gotten around to recording (or even scoring)vanilla hub as a 3 part violin piece. My only mate who's any cop at violin is an idle git and agreed to help do it about a year ago... I can play myself, but I haven't for about 8 years so I may be a little rusty to say the least. Thanks for your listening and comments guys, much appreciated! |

A hint of Lycia, the melodies and the stuttering beats are also very Aphex, nice one Ceri |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
luv it. no other way to put it. the beats and melodies, reminds me of the lovelier moments of both Ziq and Phex.this is one quality package Ceri. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks to the Nz massif :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, i think you're right there ceri :D actually, I did listen to it later, and I liked it very much...nice break sample you have there, what is it? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's called Pharzyde, it's one that comes with Reason. The version of it in my track sounds very little like it... it's all pitched up, re-arranged, fxed etc. (so much so that I had to check the altai file to check the name- the pharzde break on it's own sounds v. different) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Nice and kinda BOCish! Maybe the string patch and the drums sound a little too raw the way they're mixed clean and upfront compared to the other sounds which are muted and effect-heavy. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its because i spelled "unexpected" dreadfully wrong |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
everything sounded good but the drums didnt sound right, neither synthetic or natural |

Oddioblender: Track comments as promised! Vladimir's Chopshop I think this was my favourite of the tracks... the intro was nicely reminiscent of traditional folk (although it's russian it made me think of an English medieval bard). The rhytm of the accompanying percussion was good, but I felt the sound to short (sounds almost like speaker click) and oddly flat. Other than that I like everything about the track. Especially the chemical brothers style acidy "forward and back" synth later on in the track that almost sounds like scratching (records). Average Joe I'm not a fan of military music anyway, but I felt the rhythm of the main melody was too repetative for a track this long. Joe Vs The Machine Part one Dunno why, but I only got the first 8 seconds of this... unless you're doing a "horsePiano" (see Titsworth's comment further up the thread) something has gone wrong here :-/ Still, it's a good intro and makes me think of an imminent boss battle in a videogame. |

oh i see! yes, those songs are from an album i am working on that tells a story through video-game style music - looks like Joe vs the Machine hits the mark. btw, can you check out the new track i just posted also? |
