One that comes to mind, being I just woke up like 15 minutes ago.

From the video edit of "Blu mar ten - believe" there is a tiny vocal clip that imo really, really adds a lot to the piece, I love it.

Originally posted by Vector A I find that sometimes that a track will be enhanced a lot for me by a sound or element that isn't necessarily a big, central part of the track. It might not be one of the "main" sounds but for some reason it adds a bunch to my enjoyment of the track. ... You ever notice this kind of thing with any of your favorite tracks?

Yes. Most of the tracks I consider my favourites contain certain "side elements" which contribute a vital part to the listining experience. I sometimes enjoy these sounds even mor than the main medlodic element of the track.

It is these little touches that convince me I could never be a musician, because I invariably would never think of them and have no idea why they work so well.

+1

The smallest nuances can be the most memorable in a track. I'm not sure what triggers that in the brain, because I agree it can be the best part.

something as pedantic as a proper clap and sweeping hat can make a dance floor messier than Auschwitz. Baselines don't make the hips shake. Stomping feet are for amateurs.

There's something about the quick little laser shot sounds in this recording that give it a huge momentum boost. Element first appears at the 1:38 marker.

love that track Mark. Big fan of depeche mode in general, my older brother was a basically a "superfan", but not crazy. And I very much like the sounds used in that track as well. They're gear heads, and it shows. The laser is only the first envelope of the sound, there is a sound trailing thats part of it(seems like).

i'd give you props if youtube wasn't forbidden because you have no hair

excellent thread. I really had to think about my choice.

the scratching and "hit it" around 5:50 does it for me.

"ERMG SHONDROID IS ****** BECUZ HE LEIK DEADMAU5"

There, I've finished your sentence for you



The sailing guitar sound 50 seconds in and the strings trill at 3:10. I fucking love this entire track though.
