jetée, april 2008 mix [ambient/dub]

so i finally finished a reaktor/lemur template last week and decided to use it in some areas of this mix, such as some of the dubby pads, triggers, percussion, glitching and mixing. other reaktor templates used were Massive, Lurker and some custom effects by offthesky. this was probably the most fun i've had mixing. if you have patience, you might like this as it isn't really an energetic or skull-fucking mix.

anyways, i hope you guys somewhat enjoy this.

oh and it isn't inspired by the tv-show lost

In!

repost on Lost tribute, but I'm down

Thirty minutes in and I fucking love it. Well done so far, sir.

This was beautiful man - reminded me so much of that show, "Futurama."

...

. . .



In all seriousness, this was outstanding - though I hesitate to levy too much praise on it because it's not something I can really understand well from a technical standpoint and it was EXACTLY what I needed to hear at the moment I listened to it, so I was completely sold without being quite sure what I was completely sold on. The way the first 20 or so minutes flow together was just epic.

Will get many, many more listens from me - and has probably found a permanent home on the iPod.

dlinggggg

The first thirty-five minutes or so are very, very well put together. Points for Gorje Hewek - At The Cafe and Christopher Willits - Evergreen. The rest of the mix is superb, as well. I especially liked how seamlessly it flowed from Ambient to Dub.

All in all, this has to be one of my favorite mixes I've picked up from TA and will be on rotation for a very long time. Great work.

Great mix.

thanks for the listen fellas

Do you produce this kind of stuff, then?

I'm getting back into the ambient and downtempo thing myself and really enjoying it. It seems so much less restrictive than making straight-ahead dance music. A lot more room for experimenting.

i do indeed and that is exactly why i have been getting drawn to it more and more and more, it's virtually limitless. it's really exciting to work on because you don't need to really follow a formula, you can just blend so many different aspects of sound. it's a totally unshackled working environment.

i hope you produce more ambient stuff by the way, it's VERY good. i was actually wishing you posted it sooner, i would have used it without a doubt.

Yep.

I think I may try to do a full album of new material this time around. Might take a while with school and all, but I'm feeling like it would be worth the effort.

I just listened to this one again for about the third time now - just so perfect for having on in the 7506's and doing homework. Everything is just so clear and full sounding - this is beautiful music without needing to be beaten over the head with it, which is something I don't think many people are very good at.

It's rare to hear stripped back music like this thought out so carefully, but the attention to detail really shows. I'd give just about anything to spend a day in your little studio (of which I have long been jealous ) just to see how you go about doing what you do.

This is really something special right here - about as unique a sound as you'll find in this forum.

Well after the second awesome review from Rob I'm definitely downloading this one and listening before bed time. Thanks for the share

The section from about 1:00:00 through the end is absolutely masterful - just a perfect build to some kind of "heavier" sounds (relative to the rest of the mix), and it just winds down for the last ten minutes or so into this kind of chilled out "goodbye."

Really can't say enough good things about this one - my favorite since J's "Spirit of 95" mix.

I really couldn't have said it better. It's primarily been the only thing playing since I first listened to it, and I'm at the point where I feel that it's safe to say that this is perhaps the best set to come from these forums.

That's exactly why I find Ambient to be the only genre of music that I thoroughly enjoy producing. You're not stuck in this, "Oh, I have to have a 4/4 kick for this," or, "I have to keep the melody in some sort of 4/4 time signature." The simple fact that you can produce with a 0/0 time signature and essentially do whatever you want has always been inspirational.

There has never been a better mix, for feeling exhausted whilr up all night writing an esasy on Mexican Studies, while enjoying a cup of coffee and a cigarette.

I had a massive ccreative burst when writing this. If i see you around, i'm buying you a beer.


Thanks.

I put this mix on my ipod and headed to the bookstore to study this morning, accompanied by my Sony 7509's. Got through the entire thing and I can't say there was one moment that I didn't enjoy. It was perfect for studying to, very relaxing. Nice flow, some really sweet tracks- all of which I had never heard before. Look forward to future sets like this!

<3 you all

You really should be quite proud of your efforts. If this were mine, I would be.



I'd honestly have paid for this, which is more than I can say for 90% of sets/compilations/etc. that I hear.

i actually didn't think anyone would really download it. it feels good to be proven wrong

i think the last few tracks went roughest, quite honestly it's kind of a bitch to eq on a touch-screen

I'm intrigued by this mix but am an ignorant bastard with what it is going to sound like!
I'm prepared to be surprised...

You can't tell in the least - honestly, that last half hour is so amazing - it really ties the set together.

You've earned yourself a fanboy.

Now do me a favor and turn your attention to producing some non-generic proggy sounding tech house for me to bang out on 4/20
