Dj mixes

Brainhopper DJ mashup for our outdoor rig..so more music than the usual intellectual meanderings, but still don't expect a normal set. Any style is thrown in  with hard tek and mainstream house. i.e. Classical, rock, latin, ska and jazz.  

Starts out with Fleetwood mac then messes around with mashup of modern contemporary pieces (capriati, babicz, Zo).  Experiments start about halfway through, with fusion of Brazilian tango and spaghetti westerns followed up by complete madness and mayhem with a touch of jazz to ease things down.

no brain stuff this time, Just to remind myself can do something  with regular tunes !

Its rough desktop messaround, created in break times between studying, so not mixed in the home studio yet. . the idea with the confusing glitches is that they throw in a mind wobbler to create non-rhythmic dissonance, that get resolved steve reich style, but I need to get into studio to get these right as they are best done by bouncing the sound from one audio PC to another live

rough edges aside I  think the remix starts to take the tune somewhere new and uplifting half way through so could have potential to be redone to higher standard at a later stage (say that about a lot of my tracks !).  

Sorry cant allow download unless Lene approves !

BrainHoPPer: lene marlin "sitting down here" DJ mashup

An oldie that got the OK for release by Soma records..if "I cleaned it up".  I thought they mean the structure, but now its clear it was a re-master they needed.  I have a bad habit of not  chasing up commercial offers, due to being into too many things at once.  OK it is dated now, but I think was one of the first tracks to fuse jungle beats with trance.

Brainhopper trance/jungle track from late 90's (unfinished demo to Soma records)

Welcome to my corner for alternative tracks which tie together studies/research computational neuroscience and the human condition (look for concept tracks in sets section).  I basically write as perception of a concept alters when you write it into music. For me anyway.  It does appear the concept tracks are most popular going by the feedback on them.

Just a hobby really when certain things are on my mind so most are unfinished from a while back.   I dont really get much time these days for writing music, but a new studio is being built slowly and another dozen or so tracks in production... but this time I will finish them properly before release.

------

For making these tune I play keyboards, bass and occasional lead guitar. I also load up samples and loops into live Dj mixing software using touch screens to improvise effects and mixing.

All dumped into and mixed/edited in cubase, but laterly since i dont need midi, wavelabs audio montage and laterly ableton is a much easier system
