The Berlin Patient

By Mr Mort on July 27, 2014 10:45 pm

A quick sketcharooni, like where it went but def needs some work.

And Hello WeeklyBeats!

I met a really nice Irish girl the other day

Very cinematic (and NOT in the sense of overinflated and bombastic). Strangely, it also sounds faintly Irish.

I never understand why people say my tunes are cinematic, maybe im not watching enough movies? lol

And your track this week is giving me a bunch of ideasv

The basic pad sounds much like that famous "How soon is now" tremolo riff from the Smiths. Nice vocal chops also

Welcome Mr Mort!
Love the chops! The riff is great. And the space and stereo mix very good. Seems like a nice girl indeed.

so did you do it for the taxes?

Far out. Nice trip. How did you process those vocals??

nice work with the vocal slicery and that opening riff is super suhweet.  Nice work! smile

really nice how it developed! and the sounds dictionary is really coherent but still rich!

Whoa, I dig it.  I would love to know your technique for that vocal effect.  It is super cool!

yes, this is big! of course the vocals are great, also the beat starting and how it slowly crawls in at the end ... very precisely built!

Alot of tweaking with the modulation sections on sampler in ableton.
Playing with lfo of pans, vol, pitch. And autmating those automations with more lfos that are also controling filter and release.

Then send them off to a couple of return trax. Got three different reverbs going on and two different delays. Cycling them through each return to create those reverbed delays.

Thanks Dude! Im still trying to work on introducing the beat a bit smoother and dynamically
