Monomachine + Machinedrum= Ableton Live Audio Manipulation

MONO GEL was made with MonoMachine + MD with all Ableton 5 effects and SEQ.

ONE EARTH GROOVE was made with MPC1K orginal and Smokers Delight samples. All guitar was me! Vocal samples were SD and Circuit Bent FX from IGOR off EBAY

Could anyone direct me toward a label that might consider any of these tracks?

MachineDrum is like the Volvo of Drum machines. Every detail is thought out down to the rubberbands on the powersupply to wrap the cords. Very Sweet(Swedish)!

The MnM is amazing after hearing some tracks over at the Elektron forums and then hearing the demo sounds on the Elektron's website I was sold. They break down the different machines inside the MnM for instances (SuperWave-Analog, SID-Sidstaion chip modeling, DigiPro-Waveforms, FM+, VO-sick vowel voice sounds) with its 6 track SEQ power its amazing.

Thanks for the comments! Just had another listen to your tracks on Myspace Im impressed very quality Banging House Tracks with solid buildups! Very good tracks to play out as a DJ.

How is One Night doing on Vismusique Label?

I know my tracks need some polishing but I'm almost ready to start sending some tracks to a few labels like Eastern Devolpements and Hefty Records and other more INDIE record labels. Any suggestions or advice?

Take it easy!

You've got a real good sound going on with these. They don't quite sound fully mastered, but are clear and have good separation, so definitly solid. They're lower energy than I'd be looking to play, but I the texture of the music really works. Good luck with the labels.

Do you have them posted anywhere other than myspace?

Not at the moment but have been thinking about polishing them up alittle and have some other ears listen and help master it maybe. It would be cool to have someone take the submixes and maybe have a go at polishing them up.

I've been in the process of putting together a small webpage together though.

Why do you ask? Anything wrong with the playback?

Thanks for listening! I agree they need some polishing in the mastering area. I try to get the Machindrum mastered somewhat going into Live 5 by using the master effects(COMP_EQ). And I always drop Ozone 3 on the Master track! I play around with the presets but I keep it subtle. Also the myspace quality is at 128_MP3 so it loses a little punch. I record everything as 24bit and renderened at 24bit so I can tell the difference when I listen to them side by side. Of course the MPC1K sampling rate is 16bit oh year 44.1_16bit and I keep LIVE5 at 44.1_24bit.

I only ask because I generally dislike streaming players (and myspace in general) when reviewing tunes. Usually I'll stock up like 8-10 tunes to review and listen to them all at once to review.

BTW, I do track 'polishing' (poor man's pre-mastering) for lots of artists and bands. Email me if you wanna talk about it.
