Will You Be My Brother?

This 30 second clip was put forward to the organizers on the Winter Olympics in Italy. They asked musicians to produce a short video that would be shown on a huge screen in Turino during the games. This is what Jason, Fred and I submitted...   ..

Marshall Vintage Amp

Hi all Open-mouthed
 
I've just had my 1970 Marshall Master PA amphead fixed. It's been rewired and tested and runs on four EL34 valves. The outside of it has been left just as it is to keep it authenic age. I've searched the net for anyone selling a same modal and found a guy who has a different model asking for serious offers only. Here's his page. So, I'm still at a loss as to how much it's worth, but I have had an offer from a mate. However i would like to know its true value cos I dont wanna rip me mate off now do I. Here's a piccy of it......
 
 Bye for now.

"Technicon"

Hi all Open-mouthed
 
I've been working on this track, "Technicon" this week. It now has a new lead in the first sequence, and a new kick throughout the track. Nexus vsti supplied these sounds. The rest was done with the zeta+. You can listen here. That's all for now.

Electric Sky Dancer

Hi Folks!
 
I've been working on ESD to give it a more manic last sequence. There I was going through all my synths looking for a sound that worked, and the good old z3ta+ came to the rescue. I fiddled about a bit with some of the paramaters and finally got a sound I was quite happy with and there's also some nice gated arpeggios from Nexus.The rest of the track is unchanged but now after the long symphonic breakdown I feel the listener is given much more than just a simple step melody that was there originally.
 
Here's the tune if you'd like to listen. 
 
Byes for now!

Loves Embrace Video

Hi all Open-mouthed
 
I'd like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy 2009, may all your dreams come true. I didn't think I'd be posting here again about anything musical, but treating myself to a webcam for Crimbo got me thinkin' about a music video. So, here's one I did of "Loves Embrace". Hope you like.
 
Merry Christmas one and all !! ~ Pete

IMIsound

Hi everyone Open-mouthed
 
I got a mail from a freind and really cool musician by the name of Tony Lawson. He runs a site called IMIsound (Idependant Musicians from Italy). Tony has just opened up an International section so artists from around the globe can sign up. Here's the link if you want to hear some ultra cool music from Italy and beyond. I highly recommed it!!
 
ciao

Illuminator

Hi all  Open-mouthed
 
With the end of the year approaching I would think it's quite safe to say that this will be my final release of the year. It's a complete overhaul of one of the first electronic dance tunes I did, which was called "Push". Now, it has a new name to go with the new sounds. The link to "Illuminator" is here. I mostly used Nexus for it with a bit of Z3ta ( the low end before and during the percussion part)  and Triangle II (for the bass). 
 
Like the original it starts off quite dark, which is unusual for me but like all my tunes in this genre they end up happy...lol. I'm pretty pleased with the production, using T-Racks 3 Delux for mastering. I've tested it out on a few systems and surprisingly I'm not getting any distortion at all. Now, having said that it'll probably sound a right mess your end...lol. Touch wood eh?
 
all the bestest,
Pete

Electric Sky Dancer

Hi all Open-mouthed
 
I hope all's well with everyone out there and that things are okies, if not, well, it'll soon be Christmas...lol Anyway, I have a new Trancey tune for you. It's called "Electric Sky Dancer",  here's the direct play link. It's my longest track in this genre at 9:40 mins, going through lots of changes and a nice symphonic breakdown before things get going again. If ya like this kinda stuff it may be a treat for you....lol. Byes for now!
 
All the best,

Escape velocity

Hi all  Open-mouthed
 
I've added a new melody to the middle section of Escape Velocity which was my first attempt at a Trance number some years ago. The melody which is on the upbeat continues in the last two sequences of the tune too. If you'd like to hear it for yourself you can do so here.
 
As I said, this is an old tune and I'm planning of revamping others too, now that I have some better synths like the z3ta+ and Nexus II.
 
Thats all for now,
pete
