That's How I Came Back

By orangedrink on March 18, 2018 10:35 pm

This has been a crazy week because I relaunched my record label and released a new compilation album!
Download it now!

This track got started when I was working on this track and messed up the tempo, accidentally time stretching all the files.  https://orangedrink.bandcamp.com/track/ … t-you-want

I restored my session, but saved the mistake for later, thinking it would be a fun experiment.  I was so busy this week with the compilation that it seemed like a good week for finishing and old thing rather than starting from scratch.  I love all the time stretch artifacts and did a lot of reversing and copy/pasting of sounds.  I didn't check the mix or master thoroughly due to time constraints.


Here's a cute picture of Derek Jacobi with an Irish Terrier.

this is awesome! massive Oasis/Foo Fighters vibes

Very trippy with the timing glitches. I've had the same shit happen to me but could not figure out how to undo the flex timing cluster fuck. Got a really cohesive soft distortion wash with nice over driven drums give it a nostalgic feel. Congrats on the label launch!

A nice experimental result with the time stretching effect. The song is a beautiful 90ies indie rock monster. love it so much.

Good job making lemonade. One of this weeks best!

The glitchy effect sounds super cool especially on the vocals.  I love working "mistakes" into songs.  It can really take you into some unexpected places.  Also good luck with the label!

Nice use of the reverse and glitching efx. Great Song!

Quite an oddity, it's nice, it reminds me of radiohead.

Nice one! Rocking

Oddly weird sounding and yet very compelling. Great idea for a track. God give us cyclic timestretching algorithms to treat kickass drums like those. Agree on the 90s feel

You do very good and interesting Music. I really like your work! smile

Love the grunge vibe, lots of varied influences here that all come together in a very cool way. Like the way it builds

Touching the BPM is like an instant disaster!  Thanks!
