Why not just focus on the music here? |
First, you must realize this is a movingincircles thread.
Once you understand that, then you understand everything. |

So what? Yeah, the guy posts dumb threads sometimes, but this is not one of them. He's just linking to a new track, which is what this forum is for, no? |

I am a big fan and love the type of music / sound you guys are going for. However, please try to find better lyrics for your songs. The lyrics from "love story" are among the worst i have ever encountered. "Your love is the greatest" .... cmon. |
Lol! Well, Uhm I wish we could take credit for those lyrics (good or bad as they may be) but actually Love story is just a remix that we did for Nadia Ali, former singer for iio. That is her single, not ours. Be easy on her she's an incredible singer / songwriter. I agree they're not my favorite lyrics she's written but they grow on you because the melodies are so good. I encourage everyone to listen to her new album it's very very good, we love it! Also she co-wrote a song called "That Day" with us and her lyrics are incredible. I can post them if you like? We're working on finishing it now. |

That answers everything and then some. I'm always interested in what producers are using to mix their music through, and comparing mixes to see how different equipment setups might impact a mix. So thanks for that. SSL 9k DrOOL. Even the Neve Sidecar creates droool. But of course its all about using it right ; )
What tracks did you guys mix through the Neve recently? |
We mixed the Lily Allen, Nadia Ali, TCM and Owl City remixes through the Neve. The mashups were done all in the box and Redhead and other originals (which no one has heard yet) were mixed via the SSL. Nothing that is posted was mastered yet except for the Lily Allen and Nadia Ali remixes.
Cheers,

Actually I posted it, but thanks for the statement. I agree, this should be about the music, and about what Dave Dresden and I are doing right now, not about some drama from a long time ago.

So I'm curious, had you guys heard Petter - "Some Polyphony" before?:

Wondering because the main sound and pattern is really similar to "Red Head." :p |
I can kinda see what you mean, It has a staccato synth line with a short release kinda like our song.
Funny ass video though!

I think you fail to see the crux of the issue: movingincircles |

That's what I was talking about, the timbre and the rhythm of that one sound, the rest of the song is obviously different. Wasn't saying you were trying to rip him off, just wondered if you had heard it. |

Since I wrote the main riff with Dave Penner of Andain on GUITAR, I don't think we ripped this guy off, don't even know who he is to be honest and never heard his stuff until today. BTW there's only 12 notes in the western scale, everyone's bound to make something that sounds a little like something else.

I think what MrJiveBojingles really wants to know is what Synth and Patch was used for that sound so he can make the same melody. He means no harm ;)
I'm gonna guess...Moog Voyager. Airball? |
