VITAL ORGAN

By PeterM on August 11, 2024 11:25 pm

For this one, I spent some time jamming with an organ patch on my Hyrdasynth, then recorded a bunch of it into my M8, then just tried to chop it up and stitch it together to make this song. I recorded a few vocals using the M8 mic too ... very fun!

This one could use some build up and wind down parts instead of just starting at 11 and ending on 11, but I forgot to record that kind of part ... so I just had to use what I had. I tried a few synth parts, but this one just felt like it worked best with just organ wailing!

Congrats on another week down!

ahh i love that organ! it is, as you say, VITAL

i don't mind the relentless drive. if you had only been on 10 the whole time, i may have been bothered. but since you were 1 MORE RELENTLESS, i had no choice to be ride along with you.
happy week 32  big_smile

Hahaha! Thanks so much! I knew this needed an extra push over the cliff. Thanks for listening!

Super-intense and extremely tasty. That organ is happening!

That was AWESOME! And I agree with jwh, you made the right decision leaving the intensity cranked at 11. It works magically, hahahaha... Also agree with onezero, the organ here sounds GREAT, awesome use of your own live performance.

I love the stereo field effects on the vocal stabs.  Really adds a nice sense of movment, particulaly in those breakdowns. And that organ... like not just toe tapping... it's straight up foot stomping.

Thanks! I seem to be back and forth on whether to sequence the external gear or just play it live. For this one, I think live playing was the only way to go though!

Thanks so much! I added those pans to the vocals on a whim, so I'm glad you noticed and like the effect.
