Another track. I'm very interested in making tracks that vocalists could potentially freestyle over, but for whatever reason I've always lacked the necessary restraint to make them minimal enough. This has a soca rhythm but sounds like it could have come out on Border Community or Kompakt https://soundcloud.com/doglatin/khaki-drop-riddim

posted this on the wrong thread -- if anyone cares!

i recorded (via zoom) and posted (via bandcamp) an unedited version of our set tuesday -- think it sounds pretty good? http://bit.ly/2igPKmh
full minute of crowd noise before it starts cooking

this is cool. been listening to Plone and Broadcast recently, so not sure if that's why this reminds me of them a little bit :-)

Shat Parp (dog latin), Thursday, 2 November 2017 08:58 (seven years ago) link

thanks for listening! i am really amused by the range of things we have reminded people of -- vince guaraldi's peanuts christmas, raymond scott's music for babies, B-52s, and now broadcast and a band i have never heard of. will look them up!

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Thursday, 2 November 2017 12:55 (seven years ago) link

Plone are (were) amazing! Birmingham-based analogue synth trio. Shame they released only a small amount of material in their time

Shat Parp (dog latin), Thursday, 2 November 2017 13:11 (seven years ago) link

i looked them up -- the comparison is otm!

weird woman in a bar (La Lechera), Thursday, 2 November 2017 13:13 (seven years ago) link

LL I didn't get a chance to listen until earlier today, but it sounds great! i really like the feel of the song that starts around 14:30 in

Karl Malone, Saturday, 4 November 2017 19:30 (seven years ago) link

thanks!!! i like that one a lot too :D

Cut this one in a living room a couple weeks ago for a buddy of mine. Don't get to record acoustic stuff very often, but I thought it turned out pretty well.

New track alert! And it's a barnstormer: https://soundcloud.com/charlieframe/choc-ice-choc-ice-riddim-ft-kjt Acollab with my other half. I'd love some constructive feedback on this one if you listen to it.

Another track. As I mentioned in another thread, the tracks on this Soundcloud are designed as backdrops and riddims that can be used by vocalists. So if any singers/MCs like what they hear and want to get in touch about a collab, I'd love to hear back https://soundcloud.com/chokice/zoopie-doopie

Hey dl, I'm not a vocalist but I'd quite like to fuck these up. Any chance you could send me the stems?

Karl Malone, Tuesday, 2 January 2018 18:49 (six years ago) link

New track on a free comp, it's the last thing I made out of everything last year. Percussion and bells recorded to cassette, put through a Whammy pedal for the parts that sound like they're going through a Whammy pedal, and Microbrute. As n/a pointed out the synth part sounds like "Snooooooooooooooop".

Oooh.... This is nice (S-). Reminds me of some early 90s house/rave classic crossed with, yeah a little bit of Fifth Mission-era TLS. I'd normally say to put a lo EQ cut on the bass but that's what kind of makes it cool. Really wobbles my tragus when listening on headphones

my last few songs have kind of been emo as fuck but that's kind of where i am right now. it's a shitty time in my life! i'm trying to balance it with melody, though. here's a new depresso-pop song along those lines: https://soundcloud.com/weinventyou/creature-of-the-night

Karl Malone, Monday, 15 January 2018 21:05 (six years ago) link

I enjoyed that.

thanks DJI

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 17 January 2018 19:09 (six years ago) link

Thanks dog latin. All the musical bits are from slowed down cassettes, so ah, there wouldn't be much left with a hi-pass put on there!

I made a new track inspired in no small way by Reverend Dollars' Arson EP: https://soundcloud.com/chokice/big-t

Badgers (dog latin), Wednesday, 31 January 2018 00:56 (six years ago) link

I like that dl. Funny, I was cleaning out my Dropbox and came across a five year-old (!) demo with a similar vibe. Sounds better than I remember, I would try to salvage it except I ended up using the same kick drum pattern on this one.

hah, we should do an ILM comp of clappy stompers. My track was inspired by the track Clip Clap on Rev's Arson EP: https://soundcloud.com/reverenddollars/sets/arson-ep

Badgers (dog latin), Friday, 2 February 2018 16:57 (six years ago) link

Love that Rev track.

Sometimes I think my favorite genre is "dotted 8th notes".

a beautiful beast of a piece that for all I know could have been a bit longer than twenty-one minutes.

Happily, not my words

Starting to catch up. That was pretty cool, S-. I'll definitely listen again.

i've been rehearsing new songs with a band and it's been really exciting and also scary (first time leading a band). it's interesting how knowing you'll have to play everything live changes the writing process. i've been listening to a lot of alvvays and tom petty recently, trying to simplify things a little bit. this is just a demo but one of those where i spent way the hell too long working on it. i'm pumped to eventually play it all really loudly with real people!
