Well its been a while since I have made a new mix, but I have been collecting tracks for it for a while. This one came together fairly quickly actually, about two days worth of composition and then a few variations until I was happy with it. I decided not to add any movie samples to this one to keep it nice and simple, got alot of other projects on at the moment! Im not even sure if people actually like those movie samples tho, let me know if you do!
I have called it Harmonics (Part 3) as the third instalment in my Harmonics series is long overdue and I felt that it just kinda felt like a Harmonics Mix.
Anyways, I have uploaded the mix to SoundCloud and used the last remaining hour that the free account gives you Give it a listen or download below:
Wow! Well this one was a hell of alot easier to make than the last one.
Instead of trying to tell a story with film samples and a large overarching theme I have instead just let this one naturally progress and take its course. The consequence of this, I think anyway, the transitions are alot softer and more natural giving a good easy listen.
I have called this one “Coalescence” as it contains a rather different mixture of tracks that I have coalesced together. It still has that chilled-downtempo IDM-esq sound that I love so much at the moment with tracks by Jon Hopkins, Trifonic but I have also included some other tracks I have acquired on my eclectic audio adventures.
Anyways I hope you enjoy it, I think its probably my best mix since my Harmonics 1 and 2.
Finally, finally I have decided to say sod it and stop tinkering with this god damn mix! I have been making and remaking this thing for the best part of a year but I can still see the rough edges. Its been driving me quite literally mad! Having said that however I have enjoyed making it, else I wouldn’t do it… right?
Anyway the idea was to have a two part mix, a more downtempo one and this one (coming soon). I have tried to tell a story with this mix, using both samples from a certain famous movie and through the track selection and progression. I have gone for a deeper darker sound than my usualharmonicslight and easy to listen to sound. I dont imagine this one will be as popular with most people but I hope some will enjoy it!
As I enjoy both trance music and audio books, so what could be better than mixing both together?
This is an interesting project by one of the master of electronica Paul Okenfold. Some of them work better than others, give them a listen and let me know what you think
Paul Oakenfold’s Urban Soundtracks – Selected passages from narrated stories such as; Alice in Wonderland, Frankenstein, The Fall of the House of Usher. Narration is mixed with music, mostly trance/electronica, to enhance the story. Heard on Galaxy FM
This is one of my favourite tunes of all time, glad someone has covered it, even if the quality of the video is crap. Hopefully someone one will do a better version
Its been quite some time indeed since i have released a mix so i decided to make another one. This one is a culmination of several weeks work and im pretty proud of it.
Its hard to describe which genre this mix falls into, as the name suggests i was going for a harmonics style mix but with a more edgey, IDM type feel to it, not sure if i succeeded, but oh well.
Didnt manage to fit all the tracks i wanted into this one so they may be a simmilar mix on the way in the near future
Artist:Artificial Genre: downtempo / chillout / pop
Well its a long time in the coming but here it is, the second part of my Harmonics series. I started this thing about four months ago and only now have i found the time to complete it. Its a little shorter than the previous version mainly because i ran out of tracks that fit the flow of the set. Im extremely happy with the first half but the second half, im not entirely sure, give it a listen and leave me a comment of what u think
This one has alot more production work on it with clips from two movies and editing of tracks and effects added here and there. Also there are alot of tracks on there from free music producers, to hear more music from groups such as LEGO and Try^D check out Jamendo.
This is one of my favourite albums of all time and infact came free on the cover of mixmag a very long time ago. Despite that i think think this album never got the praise it desereved and hence the niche genre never flourished as it should of!
