"A wild ride through genre-defying instrumental soundscapes, we are taken on a musical journey through electro funk, neo-jazz, 80's guitar rock and fusion, chill ambient sonic textures and even touches of indie pop, all the while with a guitar solo hiding around the corner" said some reviewer of my (

Probably me. Check it out though, the 3 or 4 of you that might read this thread, there is a fair wack of material in there, something for everyone. (particularly if you like guitar solos)

Hah. I got a good chuckle from that. The source pulls and choices for refrains are on point... the laugh in particular tickles me. A good EDM track spliced with Frakes' constant disapproval? Sweet. I'd hit that. :thumb:
Thank you! I had the idea to put Frakes laughing in and was delighted to find an old episode of TNG with a scene that opens with Riker giving like a 10-second belly laugh with no other sound.

I bought a Voltage Research Lab for my birthday (like I need an excuse to buy synths) so I've been patching the hell out of it and whenever a patch entertains me enough I record a bit of it and make a low-effort cut-up 50's documentary video for it because why not. When I have enough of them I'll probably compile them into some rip-off of Ciani's Buchla Concerts album. Here's a topical PSA:

My Frakes song now has a great video to go with it. Or does it??

God damn, I loved Frakes' smug smirks at every terrible pun in Beyond Belief. Good times!
That song is a lot of fun!
I made this with a friend. He wrote the music and wanted me to guest sing on one of the tracks. I wrote the vox. Got bored and put it to stock NASA footage the other night. It'll come out on his space synth album whenever he finishes the rest of it.

Hey that was good, you are a great vocalist. Would love to hear you over a more guitar heavy kinda sound.
Random_Taffer on 8/4/2020 at 15:27
Thanks, dude. I'm in a few music projects now, one of which is prog rock band. We have some heavier songs.
I actually really liked your E natural minor phrasing video. I play guitar as well, but should be a lot better than I am now since we're a 3 piece! :p
But that solo was smooth AF! It actually reminded me of something that I can't quite put my finger on... Lots of cool little expressions in there.

This is a little project I did this week. I wrote it for the creativity contest Cellar Darling is running, based as per the guidelines on the album The Spell. Not required listening, but certainly recommended to prog fans. This ended up being a lot better than I anticipated considering the actual composition was done sporadically over a few days, and the fact that I can almost physically feel how rusty my drumming is. This was also my first attempt at mixing anything, and all I had was Audacity. I don't think the result is the worst, but if anyone's got any feedback on that it would be great. I'm performing drums and keys on this (including the fake bass present through the whole thing- I'm not cool enough to be a real bass player), and I got a couple of friends to do the guitars and vocals.

pretty interesting, as far as mxing feedback goes I am no producer or anything, but compression/limiting is your friend. Also the vocals are very dry, not sure how limited audacity is as I have never really used it, but you could do something like double track the vocals and pan each left and right, add a short delay and reverb.
For some reason it reminds me of White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane
