heres a new track i did if anyone is interested. i personally think it is my best production to date. its called ruby and i made it with vocalist stephanie lees who will be becoming a permenant part of my projects from here on in. i also included a latin outro at the end, which no one will ever hear, unless you download this, and / or come see us live sunday evening. credits ruby vocals : stephanie lees ruby music : james alexander cigarro outro : james alexander / sampled : bebel gilberto - samba da benc comments please! its still a demo... hence the vocal quality... it will be taken into the studio in 2 weeks where we'll finish it, and do the vocals on a rode classic or something... but any ideas on how i might make this track better, would be much appreciated. |

very good track i wouldnt change it the only thing that let it down is the 96kbps quality stephanie lees sounds alot like martina topleybird or serena your lucky to be working with a good vocalist like that |
||||||||
|

|
|
no, it's awesome how do you mean the vocals on a rode classic? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im just referring to the quality of the microphone.. the recording of this demo vocal is quite rough... im really glad you guys dig it, thankyou... |
||||||||

|

||||||||

I've downloaded it but it seems the mp3 wont play in winamp or media player 9. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i see... someone else had this problem... thats so wierd... ill upload it again, and this time i'll go to the effort of making it a higher bitrate |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Try exporting it as a wave if your sequencer can, and then encode it with an external mp3 encoder. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh everything was cool dude, people were downloading and listening to it, then the server went down, it comes back up and now the mp3 doesnt play... very odd |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That is quite FUBAR. Fit for the Twilight Zone, that is. :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i reuploaded it... this time its a 190Kbps mp3 instead of 96Kbps... hopefully nobody has any issues with this one, if so then i apologise for wasting your time. cheers! |
||||||||

It worked! Nice production on this. I like the snare and the nomadic vocals. My favorite part, however, is the Latin Outtro. That sounds quite simply, d0pe. Please extend it :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha i was thinking of extending it, but its wierd, its soooo out of charecter for me, i got really confused and puzzled when i wrote that outro... most mainstream thing evah :) thanks for listening |

| |||||||||
|
|
cheers skink! you may be happy to know that there is 3 more in the works Song For Cello, Dosage & Its The Way You Leave Me :) performing the current demo versions at todays gig... everythings going through the mixer, so ill record it to minidisc and share... unless it sucks :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nice work man. it has a very appealing sound. reminds me of like massive attack or morcheeba or some shit. kinda. but like more xanpha-ish. yeah nice. i see what you mean 'bout the vocal being rough. its a bit muffled sounding. but good though. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cool i very much look forward to hearing them!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
And... Did you get your net sorted out yet? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well i just got back from the gig, it went really well, but i didnt really have much except man the laptop so i was kinda pretending to do certain things, and our bassist didnt show up! wonderful. but yeah... Ruby was pretty good, but Dosage & Its The Way You Leave Me got really big responses! twas good :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
connected agaiin tomorrow :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Awesome!!! I will get to have a proper chat with you soon! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Did you make a recording? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i didnt, the sound guy was an absolute fool, there wasnt a mixer and we were coming out of amps instead of a PA... it wasnt bad sound wise, but it made a recording a bit of a burdon and we just didnt have the time or resourses... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hey that's cool, i am sure there will be another time! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
last bump ever... :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

I'm surprised with this one, cos i have quite a few of your tracks and think they are great, the piano melody sounds superb along with the vocals, the only thing that lets it down in my opinion is the 808 style drums. I dont know what it is about the drums which i dont like. Apart from that as usual production arrangement and structure are damn good, the outro is genius. I thought it sounded kinda massive attacky from 100th window, which is a good thing. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thanks mate :) shame you didnt dig the drum sounds man... maybe future remixes will be more up your alley :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
cooool!! high quality stuffs. nice wook :) |

listening again. normally I don't like vocals over electronic music. but this is alright. although the vocal sounds a bit rough and dry as you said. it doesn't blend in with the track. maybe use a good quality reverb on it? the Ambience reverb is freeware but is just as good as the commercial reverbs. sounddesigner rob papen (albino vst) even made some presets for it. |
