Ahhh I love it. It's so charming!
HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!
We're working hard to give you the best site possible, but we have bills to pay and community support is vital to keep things going and growing. Thank you for considering!
I have British roots, and I've been on a Beatles binge for the past couple months. Any serious producer has to revisit the classics to cultivate musical knowledge ! It also signifies a change of sound, I want to get back to "earthly" textures and in general, acoustic instruments.
Very blues-y, I tried to go for a baroque-pop sound but inevitably abandoned it because it's out of my scope (even though I'm a huge Kate Bush fan, let's say it's better to appreciate than try to replicate). So I ended up with a Bri'ish take on Afro-American music.
Let me know what you think =]
Ahhh I love it. It's so charming!
Much appreciated =]
Michael McDonald vibes, I like it!
That's funny because I love the Doobie Brothers x] thank you !
Great!
Thank you so much =]
Question, are those real drums, snares and hi-hats or are they digital?
So there's a combination of many drum tracks :
1. The hi-hats you hear at 00:37 are live, and so is the cymbal crash.
2. The drums you hear beginning at 00:50 are samples, meaning the kick and snare.
3. The drums you hear in the chorus at 1:15 are live, but have been chopped, so it's essentially a sample.
4. The drums at 2:48 were sampled from "Melvin Bliss - Synthetic Substition", a really popular break.
5. The drum solo at 2:57 is entirely live, played by a friend of mine =]
Please contact me if you would like to use this in a project. We can discuss the details.
