@@ccjmusic Little things like that show it's real. It's one reason I do a full unedited take nowadays. It's all part of the experience. Mistakes, flashes of brilliance and everything in between.
@ Yeah I always try and keep things as real as possible. That is why I still uploaded a video yesterday that had a technical issue. I corrected it for Bandcamp.
Despite the challenges you mentioned, you've managed to create a truly cinematic atmosphere. I love every moment of this jam, it's so innovative and captivating. It's a perfect example of what can be achieved with a spark of inspiration. I really love it, and I want to listen to it again right away.
Thanks Marco! I finally got the SH-4d to work, still no idea what the issue was, but the sound I was hoping would be in this made it into the next track. It was a kind of growling sound. Inspiration is a great tool when you can use it in real-time. I think some of it gets lost when creating things in a DAW layer by layer.
@@ccjmusic You're amazing at solving problems! Unlike me, you never give up, and that really motivates me to do better. You're a huge inspiration to me!
@ Thanks Marco! I've been known to spend days trying to fix a problem, but I guess that is part of what I was used to when I was working. First for an electronics company trouble shooting oscilloscopes before they were sold to customers, then when I came to the US a change in direction by working for educational software companies, first creating the graphics for the software, then creating the software itself, through finally being the one to design and create the backend software for teachers to track student progress with our reading software.
@ As you know, I'm an electronic engineer with a PhD in telecommunications, but unlike you, I completely abandoned that life... and perhaps I made a mistake. You remain an example to follow.
@@IntraMoeniaArt I have always felt the need to be creative and after I came to the US I didn't work for a few years (I was lucky in that I didn't need to financially) and spent my time teaching myself how to create graphics on a computer, this paid off as I got talking to a guy at a print shop where I was printing something out, he saw what I had done and asked if I wanted a job at the company he was the creative director at. I went for an interview and got the job. While there I went from just creating graphics to helping to create the educational software too and had a fair amount of freedom to be creative. After that company finally went out of business I joined the CTO at another educational company that was just starting up. This company created reading software for Kindergarten aged children. I was a part of the development team and designed a lot of the lessons that made up the software. Later the CTO left and I took over his role and we added far more tracking ability for the teachers. It went from a basic tracking of what lessons a child had completed and their score to a full blown tracking product with dozens of ways to capture and display data, plus ways to manage students and what lessons they would take etc. By the time that company finally closed we had helped around 6 million kids learn to read, and had been adopted by a lot of large school districts throughout the US. Having the freedom to create both the lessons themselves and the tool for teachers to track and manage definitely fed my creative needs. If I thought a feature would be useful I would add it without having to run it by the CEO first. It was a system that worked really well for us all.
Beautiful atmosphere 👏
Thanks Fabio! It would have been better if I didn't have the technical issue with one synth not triggering.
Something special and captivating! Love it !👍🏻
Thank You! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I've been enjoying creating in real-time a lot lately.
Love your watch 😄
Great dreadful atmosphere and filming. It sounds awesome and it could make the cut for the droooooone’s day. Nice one man.
Thanks Fred! My watch is an Invicta. It shows in a lot of my videos where you get to see it better.
You know me, I love to be dreadful. 😛
That was cool. Varied but high energy, all kinds of interesting sounds and an almost ominous at times.
Thanks Ben! It is a little static in places because I was trying to figure out what the issue was with the SH-4d synth not triggering.
