the right kind of music

Ok copkillers, here is the latest jam!!!

John Davis - Theme From Beverly Hills, 90120

Using only the freshest sounds available in 1991, this song is cheesy and smooth as velveeta!!!!!!!
With an almost canyon.mid esque-synthrock flavor with that HOT OVERDRIVEN GUITAR and CRISP AS FUCK gated drums.

More great freestyle

My hourly alarm just went off. That's a new thing. It makes things a little more interesting.

Huge explosion!

In Toronto at around 4AM this morning!!

Here's the full video.


In this one you can see the SHOCKWAVE...

New virt media

So, virt, the best musician in the universe, posted a video on YouTube of his new Puggle (pug and beagle hybrid) set to his own beautiful early 2000's era canyon.mid rearrangement. Excellent!

Another tracker in the spotlight

Wow, here's SymbolOne, who Danger did a remix of, and he's getting lots of attention on MySpace.

SymbolOne - Love Juice

How do I know he's a tracker? It's a hypothesis. But listen to the synths--they give it away. The lead synth that comes in near the beginning, first of all, I recognize as sounding very similar indeed to a particular lead synth sample. Second of all, the portamento effects on the lead synth and the arpeggiating chord synths are very common in tracker music.
Also, there tend to be a lot of very fast arpeggios in these tracks, like occurs about half way through.
And a lot of the synths also SOUND sampled, which is how tracking music works. For instance, the bell thing in the middle quiet part of the song--it sounds sampled.

And that's why I love it!

Good news for trackers

In definitely one of the best YouTubers I've seen lately, circa 1989 nerdy guy Mark Salud plays songs he tracked on an Amiga and plays the lead LIVE on his keyboard. Then fancy Amiga computer effects make things interesting. BONUS: Comments from the star of the video and the producer of the video itself, who were very excited to find their work again.



Also, I'm working on more evidence that Danger is a tracker, besides, uh, his songs which make it obvious!

New Pink Plasma

Hi guys. I've been working on some music and I have a few tracks to show you.

My name is Pink Plasma.

Pink Plasma - Maybe Be Mine

Pink Plasma - Faltermeyer in Genesis Valley

Pink Plasma - Baby


Just to give credit where credit is due, Maybe Be Mine is a remash of Michael Jackson's classic song Baby Be Mine. And Faltermeyer in Genesis Valley is a mashup using Justice, Soyo Oka (composer of the Super Mario Kart soundtrack) and Harold Faltermeyer songs.

The best new band in a while

Lovelock.

Found them via Missingtoof, who recently showcased the web collective pseudo label Valerie. They've got a couple songs posted, along with a ton of other stuff in the same amazing aesthetic. These guys basically take early '80s diagonal neon nostalgia to the next level.


Back to Lovelock. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find any downloads.

It's like Harold meets Purple Motion meets Two Great Heroes or Totally Radd.

Update:
Funny thing is, I posted this without mentioning another band on the Valerie roster, Minitel Rose, who seem to be really amazing and are already doing a lot of the stuff I have been doing. You should definitely check them out.
