untitled, unmastered II

By orangedrink on October 28, 2016 6:25 pm

I'm on the road!  This is scary, producing and uploading tracks on the road.  I made this in bed in Virginia on the OP-1 and then did a live arrangement while sitting in the passenger seat on my way to Georgia.  I can't tell if the bass line notes are okay or if I need to adjust them a semitone or two.  This is my best attempt to imitate two of my heroes, J Dilla and DJ Shadow.  I wrote the track after going out to dinner with a bunch of old friends and my new husband.  We had such a nice time.  My heart was filled with happiness and love.  I put my fingers in a shape on the OP-1 and that first chord came out.  And then I pitch shifted it down and up to create the chord progression.  I really like the OP-1s compression and quirky sound.  I promise to catch up with everyone's tracks when I get back next week!!

Great vibe and groove--very much digging the OP-1 tonalities in this one.  Very nice melodies, and modulations, too--I really like the tight filtering toward the end.  And, most importantly, congratulations and best wishes on getting married!

nice track! congrats too smile

Really cooL track... was grooving along, scrolling on facebook haha peace!

the rhythmic beats are super cool, and the somewhat pulsing bass/pads are satisfying smile

Very nice, some great sounds from the OP1 in this.

Lovely unconventional artwork!!!
