Hey hey,
some new music:
https://youtu.be/NwzrJEvvEuE
OGG version:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/rke5r2vfwd5mdtv/change_the_game.ogg
This rauncy, energetic fusion of Ace of Base, modern electro and Britney
Spears began as an excercise in good, carrying basslines.
It stars Csound for the fantyastic gnarly FM bass and the kicking drums!
Yoshimi adds a shiny topping with stabs, some bass layering and pad work.
Fluidsynth lays the groundwork with the main e-bass and LinuxSampler fills the
gaps. The rest is outboard equipment and a lot of vocal tracks.
If anyone is interested, I can post the lyrics as well.
Best wishes and keep those hips shaking, :)
Jeanette

My raw notes while listening to the track:
Oh my goodness, that FM bass makes me feel things. It reminds me of the
Sega Genesis/Megadrive. I love those raw FM sounds in the Genesis.
Also, that bass drum reverb (is it gated?) is nice. It really lights up
the mix. The aggressive dubstep wobble-sounding synth is so nice, I love it!
If I had to give any criticism on the track, I would like the lead
vocals during the verses to be more processed, especially when they
first come in (that's Becca, right?). Like, just a little bit of chorus
or a bit more of reverb added in would be the icing on top for me. Also,
is that you singing the backup vocals? It sounds really nice on the
sides of the stereo image.
The groovy synth stabs are such a nice texture to the song too. They're
sprinkled in like chocolate chips and add good texture.
Definitely my favorite track I've heard from you Jeanette keep 'em coming,

Hi Brandon,
many thanks! I'll be sure to pass this feedback on to Beccy! As to
details...

I don't think it's gated. The main production happened about a year ago.
I think it's just heavily compressed with a release time around 70-80ms,
not as clean as gating it on top, but it works. :)
...

Yes, the lead vocals are recorded by Beccy and
you're the second person
to suggest more "fatness" in the verses. I agree, but chorus didn't work
and alas her schedule is far too full, so she wouldn't be able to double
her own lines. That would have been the best solution, even with some
accenting.
...
Also, is that you singing
the backup vocals? It sounds really nice on the sides of the stereo image.
Many
thanks. Yes that was me. I originally sang the whole song. Let's
put this way: Beccy singing it was a blessing and the difference between
lowgrade and top notch. My voice did work for the backings, because I
trippled every line, averaging out the errors. :)
...
Definitely my favorite track I've heard from you
Jeanette keep 'em coming,
I am thrilled and will do my very best. :)
Best wishes,
Jeanette
