| If long outros make you sad, just listen to the radio edits instead. ;) |

| Yeah i would say its for mixing. usually there is a place near the end with just beats and then a boring ending and i always think of where i would mix in the next song (before the boring ending) |

The longer the song is, the more royalties the artist get! It's that simple! |
No thats entirely false. heh, sorry dude, but record companies give the artist a 7.7 cent mechanical royalty at a song in 5 min of legnth. 1.2 cents are added on per minute afterwards. The artist rarely sees that extended royalty tho, b/c most labels will cap the royalty at a 3/4 rate of the entire album, and still only pay 7.7 cents per song. Kind of a rip off don't you think? Yes, but its true, and it happens a lot. Just thought you guys might wanna know that. |

I think i found a track with the longest ever outro
Paul Van Dyk - Connected (Markus Schulz Reconstruction)
4 mins long:nervous: |

I'm in no position to judge other artists, but speaking only for what I'd do myself, I like to do something a little tricky on the outro instead of stripping all the instruments away linearly -- sometimes I'll tease in a new, alternate hi-hat line and then fade that one out too. Or I'll add some creative effecting and those gratuitous "Whooosh!" noises everyone loves. Maybe even drop the kick drum out for a bar or two to disorient things but not to the point that the outro is staggered and useless. Just to, you know, add a little warmth to the bottom of the iceberg.
There are always new ways to mix things up. :) |

Funny, I was just thinking of this exact track (the G&D Unplugged Mix) as well as a lot of other G&D stuff. |

I am sorry ..but...this is a retard question!
:stongue: :stongue: :stongue:
The intro's and outro's of a track were specifically made for DJ's to use to mix. These parts were never intended to be heard by the audience. The longer the intro/outro the more or a "blend" style mix is needed..i.e. no quick 1 bar cuts to the next song.
I dont want to go into detail about the patterns and rationale of intros and outro but all you need to know is that it is designed for DJ's to use.
Please excuse me but when I read your question I just almaost fell off fell off my chiar w/ laugher:haha: :haha: :haha: :haha: |
