One Way Ticket

Only Silk 067 - Nigel Good Mix

These snippets are a selection of abandoned concepts from late 2008 to 2011. They're in chronological order. In 2008, my hard drive crashed and I learned a hard lesson about backing things up. I guess all music I did until 2011 was an abandoned concept. If I'm stuck or looking for inspiration, I have been known to sneak into these project files and steal an element or two, so don't be surprised if you recognize a little synth motif or something like that.

Here are the track working titles

1) Track1: This was supposed to be the first track to an album.
2) break it: Some breakbeats and vocoded vox
3) mini flow: I like this progression and have tried a few times to make it work since making this back in 2008
4) trentemore: Vocals a la Justin Oh!
5) revisedtoprog: Really busy synth work
6) 20103: Experimenting with reverb/delay automation fills
7) dominica: More Justin Oh vocals from a track I remixed of his… it's on my soundcloud page.
8) roots: Experimenting with vocal cuts
9) moviefxbeat: Experimenting with sampling my own piano/string stuff, and then messing with the loop
10) fallsafe: My first 1/8th note track.Maybe did this after hearing Adam K & Soha - Twilight
11) quickstring: Playing with Logic Pro's string section
12) twothounine: Standard prog stuff
13) twothoutest: Same project as #12 but a little different
14) castle: Obviously no knowledge about good compression/limiting/bass at this point… This is a full track more or less. I think I used some of those percussion elements in my Altara remix
15) hydro: Another 1/8th note track
16) dopdopdop: Beach
17) one thing: playing with some more aggressive bass patches. Probably listening to Wolfgang Gartner at this point
18) whereami: Glitchy perc with big atmosphere
19) eiei: Breaks with strings
20) thebreakdown: My interpretation of mainstream at the time…
21) fades: Downtempo
22) orchestra: Trancey
24) monopoly: Playing with samples
25) external23: The origin of my vocal cuts and the precursor to The Known Universe
26) proto: Didn't get far with this
27) land9: Electro
28) starttrack: The precursor to Civilization
29) fresh: The precursor to my Soundprank remix… if you can believe that
30) pure space: An attempt at remixing Justin Oh's A Different Place
21) wherebeat: A string remix of Justin Oh
22) whatisthis: What is it?
23) atmo: Had potential but a little lacklustre
24) img: Reverb!

ALLEY035
NIGEL GOOD, MANGO Discover / Remember

001 discover
002 remember

Prismatic light refracted through car windows on a bright sunlit morning; a voyage of discovery toward the unseen places, towns, valleys and shores. Nigel’s Good’s evolving journey through the subtleties of flowing melody, intricately constructed piano and immaculate rhythm, enable us to “Discover” poise and musical grace. An assured debut and a soundtrack for optimism as uplifting riffs and vibrant grooves from his Canadian homeland transport the listener through changing window views and channel that unforgettable feeling of freedom pulsing with vitality in synchronicity with driving beat.

Landscapes ebb and flow, constantly shifting patterns tease the skyline against a static, infinite horizon. Fragments of memories pervade the consciousness as veteran Russian producer, Mango, provides musical eloquence once more on a journey of reminiscence. Times to “Remember” through emotive chord progressions and sublime musical meanderings as richly textured melodic layers are juxtaposed against angular rhythms. Nostalgia motions through a window framed against changing landscapes.

A state of flux between no longer and not yet: “remember”, “discover”, out on the road once again.

Ontario native Nigel Good has emerged in recent years as one of the most beloved talents on Silk's roster. The emotive (often euphoric) melodies, electro-tinged grooves, and ethereal textures in his tracks have captivated house, progressive, and trance progressive fans alike, as well as captured the attention of many globally renowned international DJs, from Above & Beyond to Porter Robinson. Thanks to the generous support of the international community, he has reached the top of the charts on Beatport on various occasions in both the Progressive House and Trance genres this past year.

With tremendous enthusiasm, Silk Royal presents "Nothing Out Here", Nigel's debut artist album. Spanning a variety of genres, this 12-track release showcases the full range of Nigel's talents. The cinematic "This Is Us" is a fitting opener; a gorgeous piano solo heralds a lush lead melody, floating atop a meaty progressive house groove. The triplet groove of "Flight" is a fresh rhythmic offering, and the melody and strings in this one are equally moving. Nigel enters darker territory with "The Edge", the first of several orchestral pieces on the album. The subsequent cut, "Nothing Out Here", is vintage Nigel: piercing strings and rapturous chords, as well as a summer-flavored guitar hook, provide enormous uplift to the listener. The second "half" of this composition can be heard in the subsequent track, "Something Out There"; all of the feel-good energy reaches its zenith in this one.

At the album's midway point, we are met by the lead single, "One Minus Space", an ironic nod to his previous hit, "Space Minus One". As per usual, Nigel blends acoustic and symphonic instrumentation with synthesized lead chords; the result is one of his most memorable arrangements to date. His drum and bass experiment "Fourth Wall" and his second album interlude, "Cine", further illustrate the diversity of sounds on the album. Centering on an irresistible vocal hook by rising Swedish artist Johnny Norberg, "There For You Now" is the most likely candidate to remain in your head after the first listen. Arguably the album's climactic track, "Discover" features soaring chords, punctuated by heavenly vocal samples (an artist signature). Rounding out the album, "The Balance Part 2" is a very welcome sequel to one of Nigel's most successful singles with Silk. Finally, "This Is It" pays homage to his previous hit "This Is Us"; this gorgeous, string-themed classical piece also brings Nigel's exhilarating and deeply poignant album to its conclusion.

Here's the story of "Discover", which originally started as a true collaboration between Mango and I back in the winter of 2013. 

Nigel Good - Discovering Discover

Here is a collection of some abandoned concepts from 2012. Some of it was the precursor to finished work, whereas some was an alternate version that went too far is some direction - usually for the worse. There's a lot less here compared to 2011, perhaps because I was finishing and releasing music by this point. Here's what's here:

1) funkyprogressive8: Would have loved for this to have a more disco feel.
2) slowdown4: This was the precursor to my Biologik remix (Sarin). Forgive the distortion in the mids. It sounds pretty similar to the final product but I thought was different enough to warrant including here. 
3) img9: Strings and progressive house, why not? First time with this new reverb patch on Guitar Rig 4. Really big wide reverb here. Maybe too big.
4) img15: A continuation of img9, but a little different. Very happy. 
5) maybeatremix1: Believe it or not, this is the beginning to my Warmest Day remix. Somehow! 
6) maybeatremix5: A continuation of the above. I want to use this bassline and synth arp line sometime. 
7) intri12: These vocal chops and guitar chops went on to be a part of my Time Is By Your Side remix. 
8) hmmm1: Same vocal chops as above, but with an 1/8th note synth melody. Oh, and same percussion as maybeatremix. This percussion actually went into Come Home.
9) hmmm2: Same as above but a different synth line.
10) hmmm2_2: Same project as above, different synth line, and vocals from my collab with Justin Oh. 
11) An earlier version of my Why Do We Try remix.
12) funkyprogressive1: An earlier version of the first track on this abandoned concepts track. 
13) newnnew1: I'm discovering Reaktor at this point. 
14) test2: Seems similar to newnnew1. I think this went on to become the final version of my Why Do We Try remix. 
15) Electrotest: Yup.
16) Sustainpedal: I didn't have a sustain pedal for a while because mine broke. I had finally gotten a new one and wanted to play with it.
