I think I'm going to call this song done, unless something or somebody shouts at me loud enough to dare open up the remix can of worms again.

I used the hypercyclic vst for the "controlled chaos" bouncing bassline, through several layers of bass. Every element has at least 3 layers on this song, usually 4. I also used several puremagnetik sounds, the bendy marble ball sound is one of their presets on the vector release.

The song is "Gazing ICU Infinit Blue"

Nice track. I thought I heard this one from you a week ago or something.

Reminds me of a early 90s band ..damn can't think of it right now though.

What are your influences?

abort- Thanks for taking the time to listen...yeah, it's the same track....with the added chorus and synth brass and more balanced mix.

I think the most influential album for me was John Frusciante's "Shadows Collide With People"....and "To Record Only Water for Ten Days"....I like the idea of the songwriting guitarist, I love Cat Stevens....I love the versatility of a guy like Dave Grohl. I've listened to all kinds of music, back to Depeche Mode, Erasure, Nitzer Ebb, Information Society. Tracy Chapman is another big influence. I really love Radiohead as well...Tool...U2, island vibe, Bob Marley...Sublime.

I am finally finished with my goal of a fully self produced album, I'll be selling it starting next week...until then my soundclick site has free downloads.

My next project will be leaving my comfort zone of being a musical hermit and finding some people I click with musically to work on a group project.

I would like to focus on developing my voice....it's too much work to try and do it all....it takes too much focus and leaves little room for living a balanced life.

I agree with you on the balanced life style! And yeah it would be nice to have a few people around to help in area's that I don't get yet! but for now I'm still vary happy just putting together beats. Lyrics are the hardest part of music I think, singing about something is one thing ..but to come up with a really strong message that people can understand is another!!!

as far as finding friends to work together with is another really difficult thing too, because people now a days I believe have problems socially, I don't know what it is about are world now but I find people to have problems opening up to other people. Theirs such a fucking reserve about people today its stupid ...and if they feel uncomfortable socially they grab there cell phones and pretend they have a call or something ...I don't know I've have bad luck finding down to earth friends these days.

cheers man.... I like what your doing. Keep up the great work. Just remember to keep it simple.
