Hello everyone! Here is the serious piece of electronic music. Rather more depressive than I would have predicted. First though I have to express my gratitude to Alison Utter for the sweet vocals, that she has supplied. Thanks! And then we have the links: http://juliencoder.de/nama/borrowed_time.ogg http://juliencoder.de/nama/borrowed_time.mp3 And the lyrics: http://juliencoder.de/nama/borrowed_time.html Or you can access it all from the music page: http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html Now about that song: technically speaking I used a lot of Midish and Nama. And for the first time I really came to appreciate Ecasound's LV2-support. So also a big thanks to Jeremy Salwen, who contributed that feature! Musically, this is a mixture of different influences. I'm still not sure, if it should be categorised as pop or electronica. there's some dubstep in this, as well as some hiphop - in German! :-) - and some basic depressive pop. As to instruments used: almost everything I have at my disposal. In software I only used LinuxSampler for the Solina sample. Thanks to the friend, who made a present of it to me! It's a versatile instrument! This latest experiment concluded, I will just lean back and relax. As ever: feedback is very welcome! Warm regards and enjoy Julien ---------------------------------------- http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html

Amazed by your versatility: it has a specific blend of genres that are unique in each section. I think they work very well together: impressive blending them together and still sounding coherent. Lovely pads sounds, vocals, and production. Congratulations! On Tue, Aug 20, 2013 at 11:49 PM, Julien Claassen <julien(a)mail.upb.de>wrote;wrote:

+1 from me on that! Also I want to second what Patrick said as I listen to a lot of electronic music and this piece holds its own ground. Nice work Moshe

I think Julien just invented a new Genre. Progressive Dubstep. Well done! This is one for the history books.

Hello Patrick! Even I, raging, vain egoist of a would-be artist, that I am, can't accept this credit. I came across something similar before. there have been artists for a while now, who blended the fashion of dubstep with all sorts of ideas. There's even a violinist, who plays her instrument to dub, although I don't like her work, the idea is sound and resounding enough. and there have been people like Skrillex, who mixed and mangled the basic genre of dubstep with others from the world of pop. and alas it must be said for them, that they produce better and much punchier basslines. :-) It seems, that I must find another distortion or overdrive plugin, should I wish to pursue that path further. Thanks anyway, it goes down like milk and honey. :-) Warmly yours Julien ---------------------------------------- http://juliencoder.de/nama/music.html

Progressive Dubstep has been redefined then :-) On a day when Fukushima has been upgraded to level 3 after more than 2 years of continuously emitting toxic pollution into the Pacific Ocean and the supposedly democratic New Zealand Government has enacted an unprecedented attack on their own population under the guise of protecting people from terrorism it's good to hear that others are still making things move forward for the better. The saddest part about the fascists power grab in New Zealand is that it just confirms all the worst things people say about New York Banksters. Moral of the story, don't let a fascist New York Bankster run your country. I guess one day people will actually learn that one.

I think it time for a dubstep version of "F*ck you I won't do what you tell me" by Rage Against The Machine... Anyone up for that remix? I have some lyrics I have been working on. -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd

Wow, Julien, that's beautiful work ! I had no idea you were such a profondo basso. :) I'd say it's more serious than depressive. Kudos also to Alison, excellence added to excellence. Best always, dp

Finally got time to listen to this. Really impressed with what you've put together here. The contrast with Alison's voice adds to the drama of the entire piece. -- Will J Godfrey http://www.musically.me.uk Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
