Piano 1.0: - A Midsummer Nice Dream [album sampler]: - The piano tune is my attempt at some sort of classical piano tune. A few of the samples are a bit crackly, but it's not too noticable on speakers. The album sampler contains clips of tracks due to come out on my Toytronic album. There are a few old tracks on there, which you might recognise, remastered and generally sweetened up. Hope you like them anyway, thanks. Oh yeah, the EP's to download fully now too, as it seems distro has dried up for the physical release. :( |

Piano 1.0 is pretty cool... I'd say its a good attempt at classical... the melodies were pretty sweet for the most part.. and that progression at the very beginning was awesome.... I would actually like to see that turn into the basis for a different song, one that relies more heavily on that progression. I have no mouse right now, so navigation is taking me a while, and quicktime crashes a lot in IE so it might take me a while to listen to the sampler.. but I will eventually |

yes, i'm definitely looking forward to the new album. sounds great so far from what you have here! =] |

how much of the new album is actually unreleased material though? I only listened to the first few tracks, but they were both ones I've heard (many times) before... just curious if I should expect some surprises... ;) |

5 you've heard, 5 you have not. I've altered the old tracks slightly too, though admittedly fairly subtly. Glad the piano went down okay, thanks. Cheers Ambsace - glad you're looking forward to the lp. :) |

Wonderfull stuff, I personally can't wait for this album. Good thing my student loan just came through so I can afford to buy it when it's out. |

Wow lovely track... There are some minor things I would compose differently. I really hate... how do you call those... umm variations to a theme ? |

Top draw. Top fucking draw!!! Lushess lushess melodies!!! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
That first track on the sampler is mind blowing!!! Absolutely lush as hell and without a doubt Rephlex/Warp material in a fucking instant!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh man there are some truly truly fucking sweet tracks in this sampler. Tear jerking stuff! If someone gets signed to Rephlex/Warp I would no way be surprised if it wasn't Ochre. |

I am downloading now, i shall tell you what i think in a minute. |

Ochre should have been signed to them MONTHS ago... it's not like he all of a sudden got good people.. GIVE THE MAN SOME CREDIT haha =) seriously though he should be signed by now. |

sounds kind of jazzy |

The piano track reminds me of dubussy in quite alot of ways. Your album sound like it's going to be great are you going to post here when it's out and stuff? |

The piano track was excellent. Just like old classical it uses volume and tempo as part of the pallete of creativity. It's not the best classical melody I've heard but quite good, still I couldn't make that. It seemed to rely on fancy rain-like series of notes to make it structurally interesting rather than just the right ones to make it emotionally interesting. Did you simply play the piano while recording, or was this made on a computer? The only way I could make the recording with a real piano is by recording each independent melody seperately since I can't play. |

How much money do you make, say, a year off a toytronic release. Also do toytronicians have some sort of relationship with eachother, ie do you and whatshisface... mr. projectile collaberate or something? |

FUCK!! an ochre track!!! :D!!! *has a celebration* *downloads |
||||||||

oh, yes. and the piano track was rather tasty, too. playful, but moody at the same time. very nice. |
||||||||

Piano-track: lovely. simply lovely. I've been working on a classical piano-track too lately (although not even half as good as half as good as this track!), actually writing the notes before playing it. The rest sounds great! Am I to understand that this is something that will be put out on cd and / or vinyl? |

The Album Sampler Is Awesome....Im really looking forward to a full release. Ochre has bags more talent than most signed artists. |

I'm 90% sure that it's moslty sequenced... I'm 50% sure that it's entirely sequenced I'm 100% sure that it's a good track regardless. There are parts where it sounds like there are 3 different melodies in different octaves (impossible unless you are a mutant) and some of the playing is VERY fast and would require incredible talent (not that Ochre isn't very talented)... but still. It just kind of sounds sequenced to me.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hmm... The program would have to have some very intuitive control over tempo before I would even attempt to use tempo like that on a computer. Good point though 3 octaves= 3 hands... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah his timing is pretty crazy throughout that track.. but it's possible he's a wiz at math and figured out all the timings himself...(?) |
||||||||
|

Cheers guys! Yes - it is 100% sequenced and programmed. I just automated the tempo and piano velocity in Cubase, to try and get it sounding a bit more human (I can't play keys to save my life). I'm glad it's gone down fairly well, so thanks a lot. Skink - Debussy might be an influencial factor, as I do have some of his mp3s - La Mer and Children's Corner (don't know what CC is about? Haven't listenend yet) Promo - thanks mate! I'm so pleased the sampler's going down well too. I've been making changes to the tracks that have already seen light of day, so hopefully they'll sound much cleaner etc on CD/vinyl. |
