CoLoUr DoTZ Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Myam james part 2 by kettel has some orchestra elements on it, close to a movie soundtrack sometimes. Amazing melodies he writes!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penzoline Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Orchestral like how? I didn't find anything with vagelis the only thing that comes to my mind is some of Hybrid's fantastic production http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsXJzrZBv1E http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4z0CiLbUvi0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TfsB9N2hmiA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsXJzrZBv1E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Matta Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Here are a few: Later Murcof, Johan Johansson and Max Richter. If you want some more synthetic stuff, I highly recommend William Orbit's Pieces in a Modern Style (remakes of well-known classical pieces). In my opinion the only interesting thing he's done. And then if you like that sort of thing [here it comes, my big bias], totally check out all of Isao Tomita's , who did most of his important work just before Vangelis' time. He could cheese out at times, sort of like Jarre could, but his serious stuff (most of it) is amazing (I personally like all of it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ritual om Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 to give you a pic of what i want: imagine an orchestra (if it's in classical music,even better),a massive one with 3-5 guys in front of everyone with racks of synths playing. all these sonic waves giving goosebumps to everyone.

Penzoline Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Oh, I thought you meant literal orchestral elements. Still, hybrid kicks ass anyway, check em out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritual om Posted November 4, 2009 Author Share Posted November 4, 2009 yes,they are amazing! well,since the most probable is not to find exactly what i want,music with orchestral elements would be just fine! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Matta Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 These are not great recommendations for what you want, but maybe you should check out Messaien's Tarangalila Symphony. It's powerful, trippy stuff, and it incorporates an Ondes-Martenot. The only other thing I can think of is Stockhausen's concrete music.

Bahamut Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 I guess there are a few categories: - Electronic music that uses pre-sampled orchestral/classical sounds There's of course lots of stuff that does this. But the only purely electronic album I know, that truly feels like a grand classical, melodic composition, is the new age album Constance Demby - Novus Magnificat from the mid 80s. It uses sampled sounds of classical instruments + synth sounds/fx. - Electronic music combined with live recordings of orchestral elements. Or the other way around: Real orchestral music with some electronic elements. Here I can only think of lots of movie soundtracks and maybe some game soundtracks. And one Klaus Schulze album: X, second disc. And possibly a Vangelis album that isn't a soundtrack. - Purely electronic/synth arrangements of existing classical music. Wendy Carlos.

karan129 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Wow...why has no one mentioned the majestic Venetian Snares - My Downfall (Original Soundtrack) Also I guess martial industrial could be what you're looking for. Try Triarii - Muse in Arms And I haven't given this a listen but afaik its classical made with synths Wendy Carlos - Switched-On Bach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snapinho Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Wow, someone mentioned Venetian Snares and didn't mention Rossz Csillag Alatt Szuletett? Breakcore mixed with Hungarian classical music. I believe it's all sampled, but with me most of the tracks strike a chord somewhere. Some people on discogs seem to really dislike it, but to me it's quite beautiful.

Snapinho Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Beefcake and Kattoo Agree! Not really classical, but melody-wise most definitely in that vein. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karan129 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Wow, someone mentioned Venetian Snares and didn't mention Rossz Csillag Alatt Szuletett? Heh well my Downfall is better! Which is why I didn't mention Rossz Csillag Alatt Szuletett. But yeah thats definitely worth a listen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
