Great tune as always. Any tips on getting vocals sounding so nice in that style of music? You keep them really nice and understated too.
That’s really cool. It’s got a really laid back vibe. I like that.
Thanks - the vocal effects chain is fairly simple:
I use an LA2 style compressor (in my case the one from IK MixBox), the peak reduction is pretty strong but it keeps things sounding smooth.
Then I use the Xvox EQ to boost a little around 3k (Xvox seems to do a great job of this without ever sounding harsh), but you can do this with any EQ.
I cut everything below 80hz.
And finally I use a generous amount of reverb, usually a chamber from DDMF MagicVerb, or the Digital reverb in Xvox, or both together.
Obviously the soft singing style and the stacked harmonies are also a big part of the sound. The harmonies are hard to nail, I think this is probably the best I've ever managed, each vocal track required 8 to 10 takes to get right.
Impressive piano, especially as you’ve only been playing 6 months! I wish I could play that well — I’ve neglected keyboard skills thanks to the piano roll lol. I used to play keyboards in gigs - I should get back to letting my left hand do something too!
Good song, with nice clear vocals that tell a story — as does the arrangement which helps take you on that journey.
A very different take on the Michael Caine theme, the Zulu sample is perfect as a musical bed for the track, and lets the alternating piano and trumpet leads shine. The leads are extremely musical, really interesting melodies and I love the way the trumpet interweaves with and sometimes echoes the piano parts.
Thanks! You really should use your skills…I can’t imagine ever being good enough to play live, or use my left hand for more than one finger bass notes!
Peaceful and gentle. Really nice as usual. Lovely flute melodies with just the right amount of modulation to keep the flute sounding organic. I like the background 'drone' too.
The Michael Caine samples make you want to hear the story and the odd synth line quickly becomes a hook.
‘MyCokaine’ ‘Michael Caine’. l see what you you did there :-)
There’s a Graham Norton interview where they talk about saying my cocaine very fast is how you impersonate him. He tells a story about being at a fancy party in the Philippines and the hostess keeps looking at him disapprovingly before asking him if he’s a drug dealer. When he says no, she asks why everyone keeps asking him for ‘my cocaine.’
The long speech is from this.
Some of the other bits are him doing an impersonation of Peter sellers impression of him. The others are rob brydon and Steve coogan.
Hi fellow SOTMC members!
As usual listened to all songs, nice stuff here!
@richardyot I really liked the singing and the lyrics on this one, which is rare for me since I'm mostly an "instrumental" guy. Not commenting much on the arrangement since it's always very good and leaves enough room for the vocals.
@yellow_eyez great guitars, the reverb and delay give them a lovely "floating" effect. Also great drums to support it. If something, I would have loved a bit more variation.
@BillS wow, nice piano playing for a 6 months player! I really love the chorus with the guitars, perfectly nailed. You said you did little midi editing which is fine to keep it more "natural", I would have done a bit of quantization because sometimes the piano is a bit too off.. at least for my taste
@DavidEnglish your instruments are always so expressive, amazing. Did you ever make a track which has a more dynamic pace? Not complaining, just curious because I like your style and I was wondering if you also explored other territories and how.
@klownshed another amazing movie soundtrack! I loved everything, especially the cello (yes I have a fetish for cellos lol)
@squeals nice track! The bass rocks. The panning of some instruments drove me nuts but after a while I just loved it lol. Doesn't really need another ending? Unless you changed the track already.. also perhaps the master is a bit too low.
@RonnieOmelettes the Zulu vocals are great, and I love the solo at around 2 minutes. Very chilled track, absolutely enjoyable.
My monthly submission: It's a ambient downtempo jazzy(?) fusion(?) composition.
Some notes on this one:
I really like this piece. It just works. Nice drums, good pacing, hits nicely at 1:30, I like your main flute voice with that bass undertone. Great layers. Sounds like guitars around 3:00 and they are a great resolution to the open area of the beginning to giving structure to the finale. (How MUCH patterning is in there? Lmao)
Thanks for the comments. I’m working on variations (that was an ABAB piece , next will be ABCABC. I’m imposing structure on my prog style jam inspired works)
I love this, it reminds me of some of the 90s and 00s downtempo stuff I still listen to and love: Kruder and Dorfmeister, Mescalito etc...
The bassline is what makes it, it's the perfect scaffold to build the track around, the drum groove is perfect and then all the synths just weave around that to create a really hypnotic track that's well arranged and interesting throughout. Great job.

Really nice. The ethnic flute sounds ace. There's much originality in the melody lines and in particular in the way that the different instruments interact with each other. And that bass...beautiful.
And thanks for listening to my track. I need to work on tightening up my timing on the piano.
Not much actually, just a little help to the main drum track, but combined with Spacefields the result is great. I'm cooking another track which has a lot more P3 but I'm not sure it will be ready before the official P3 release lol (well, probably yes but I still need quite some time).
Funky bassline and beat. It might have been nice to have a little more variation in there but it bounces along nicely. Love the samples.
Cool track, (the way this thing works , just saying, it’s kinda like take a penny leave a penny; not to be that guy but we also wanna know what your thoughts are
)
🙏master
I made vox sample with RadioAu with AT Outerspace and record in loopyHd
Drum 808!from DM1 and efx with punchlab
Other sample from Launchpad pack inside blocswave(BW used as a sequencer)
Record live in Multitrack DAW

Love how the drums evolve! Was that a lot of work?
Not at all, it was pretty easy because Logic Pro does a lot of the stuff automatically if you use his drummer module! I just added another layer with Patterning 3 but it the pattern is super simple so really low effort.
Nice laid back drums with a cool groove, and lots of musical elements keeping things interesting. Good track. I like it a lot. The flute sounds pretty great. I’ve used sculpture a lot over the years but never really explored more realistic sounds with it.
I’ll have to spend some time with the Logic drummer. I use its drum loops quite a lot - the Neon synthwave ones are great, but haven’t explored the other features much.
Thanks. I’m a sucker for the cello too. I have a couple that are stellar : The one in Spitfire Audio’s Abbey Road library is just like Eleanor Rigby. And there’s one in Musio from the band Apocalyltica that is fantastic for aggressive and electric cellos.
I used the Abbey Road iconic strings on another tune I posted to the forum.
I’m really enjoying making music with orchestral samples.
Thanks for listening too :-) I’m glad you liked it.
Any and all feedback welcome— it’s always nice to talk about making music.
Hey there, I woke up this morning with something in my head and tried to play it first on my IPhone for the generic idea then finalized it on Ableton. One of these day where “the flow” catch you the whole time. Hope you like it
@richardyot
What a crystal clear track. I like very much your rendering and the chords you are using here. Nice guitar too. I agree with the "Floydesque feel"
@yellow_eyez
Your track sounds even more "Floydesque" than richardyot's. It really miss a singer here, I can easily hear Gilmore singing something here. Ask him ;O)
@Bills
Beautiful piano. At almost 50 your song sounds very sad to me but it is very well made and sounds great
@DavidEnglish
Peaceful track. I like the flute. Are you using a breath MIDI controller to do that ?
@klownshed
I am very impressed with this track, with all the events that are changing all the time. It give the envy to continue listening to it to hear where it goes. Professionaly made
@RonnieOmelettes
Amazing...my track of the month. Cool piano fitting perfectly with the different samples you using. Love the brass too
@unlink
Some asian instruments here giving a feel of japanese-free-jazz. Very interesting
@richardyot - you heard it from here^ first lol let’s go!
Seriously thanks so much! That’s a huge compliment
As for your track, I’m kinda shocked. Your melodies are beautiful, your voice is incredible and I loved the flow you caught. If you did this in one day I’m blown away.
As a matter of fact, I would love for you to sing on one of my songs soon if you’re up for it. I think my music with a voice like yours would work perfectly.
Loved it
Good track, flows nicely and the voice software is used effectively and tastefully. Love the guitar-like synth lines, the drums and the bassline as well.
Melodic, good flow to the song. What is the voice software Richard mentions?
Listened to this a couple of times - what a great track. Would love to know more about how it was made. The Zulu warriors’ hook is pure ear candy! Instrumentation- particularly the piano and the trumpet interplay beautifully. Really fine listen and strangely catchy too.
