  1. What's so great about them?

    Some reasons why I love 'Are You Shpongled' :

     

     

    - Interesting/exiting rhythms (IMO the most innovative in psy-chill-out category so far)

     

    - The earthy psychedelic mood/atmosphere

     

    - All the tracks manage to be different but still keep that same mood... the "flow-factor" of this album is 10/10

     

    - The music is extremely visual... whatever that means I'm not sure but that's how I feel

     

    - Raja Rams flute lines

     

    - Cool synth sounds/fx

     

    - Interesting/exiting rhythms

     

    - Interesting/exiting rhythms

     

     

     

    IMO most of the other psy-chill-out artists use totally boring beats... i.e.. stiff, stagnant, simple and not exiting at all.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Ps. Interesting/exiting rhythms!!!

  2. but this...

    you cannot know by just listening to samples  :rolleyes:

    I'm not sure now if you are joke in but it's beyond my understanding how you can not hear melodies and rhythms in those samples. And you can hear for example delay effect easily even if a sample is 32kbps. And I already explained a bit why the production sounded bad to me.

  3. I think it's reeeally weird thing to hate somebody just because he/she makes music you don't happen to like. It looks like he has time of his live perfoming to so meny people and the audience seem to love it too. And no.. I'm not Skazi fun... never been.

  4. I guess that sums it all then...

    218189[/snapback]

    Sums what? That I can't hear melodies and rhythms on 4:00 minute long samples? Huh?

     

    The production is not that bad but it still shines thru even 64kbps mp3s that it's not perfect. Listen track #4 starting at 2:09... it sounds messy and out of sync... and nobody needs CD quality to hear that. People also mentioned bad mixing of the beat.... sometimes the kick is too loud and sometimes it's just ugly sounding. Some of the synth lead sounds are also plain ugly... sorry that's just my opinion.

     

    So what's your point again?

  5. hey shpongled.. tell me something.. what did you do? Can you tell me also which synth you used, so that I do exactly the same thing?

    Synths - Sequenced / Vierring.ens

     

     

     

     

    I mean, you put to add a vsti, and choose ´reaktorVST´

    It seems that I have two installations of Reaktor... I can choose between 'ReaktorVST' and 'Reaktor 4'...... ReaktorVST is older version 4.0.0 and the other one is 4.0.3........ and I can't get any sounds out of the older one.

     

     

     

     

    .. then you went in the little ´browser´ and choose ´library, instruments´ and then chose your synth.. then the little ensemble panel appeared.. now, did you do something in the cubase sequencer too? like choose a chanel, and putting the out/in as the reaktorvst?

    Yes. Just like that.

     

     

     

     

    did you have to draw the notes on the ´midi key editor´? 

    No. Just press play from Cubase. Notice that I'm now talking about Reaktor sequencer-synth.... when it's normal synth without sequencer then you have to draw or record midi notes in Key Editor.

     

     

     

     

    and then you just put play, both on cubase and on the reaktor window inside cubase, and some sounds came out?

    213541[/snapback]

     

    No... not from both... just in Cubase and the sequencer starts in Reaktor.

     

    note: I had to press on/off button few times from Reaktor to get it to work. It's next to that CPU% thingie. But then again.. I don't have the real thing... :ph34r:

  6. I think I have commented your music once or twice before but I say it again... it's great.. you certainly know something about melodies/harmonies! I also like the mood of your tracks... reminds me a bit of Ulrich Schnauss. I'm sure you're gonna get an album released some day if you continue your work. :)
