Studio sessions started again… The wait will soon be over.

Document 02 is now on Last.fm… Checking it out, I noticed several users had already listed me, so I just took some time to upload a few tracks there and complete the profile.
check it out!

Ambient work for upcoming projects. Original picture Brocken-tanzawa by Σ64.

Edit: This track was remixed by Industrial Death… it sounds great with these beats.

Usually like this…

This piece includes several instruments, voices, drums (in red). Software used to mix is REAPER, voice samples and one pad are generated in Reason (visible in the background on the left screen), the rest – including most effects – is hardware. On this particular piece, I used mainly the MS-20, DP4+, TC Reverb, and a bit of the holiest grail reverb. Main software effects are EQ, bitcrusher and a delay, secondary effects are Atlantis VST filter stages, and a flanger.

On a standard track I use around 30 tracks, one of my ongoing projects is currently over the 150 tracks mark and will most probably end up closer to 250 but the simpler pieces use up as little as 6 tracks (kick drum, snare drum, high hats, bass, lead, reverb).
Of course, you can use less, but it is convenient to have more tracks, and mixing on a computer now means there are fewer hardware (and financial) limits on the number of tracks you are mixing.

La fête de la musique electro-industrielle, vidéo par miscere. J’avais prévu pour ce festival une set plus eletro et techno que d’habitude, avec un résultat environ moitié moitié indus progressive et sons plus rythmés.
