Spacey In Effect

This is a track that is made up entirely of sounds from refrigerators owned by members of Pixelgasm.

This track was mixed, mastered, and produced by theMuzzl3. I kind of ran out of time during the mixing/mastering stages, so I'm not happy with the volume of it.  Since I was already 10 minutes passed midnight when I uploaded it, I decided to do some minor adjustments to volume and re-upload, but it still needs work.  I'm gonna remix/master it later for my final Pixelgasm mix of it.

This track is one of two mixes made by members of Pixelgasm (the other mix was made by Spacey Blurr). It includes recordings of refrigerators and freezers owned by members of Pixelgasm, which is an online musical collaboration project headed by David Pixley theMuzz3, Spacey Blurr, Sergio Blue, and Mike Luv. Pixelgasm's soundcloud page has links to all of its contributing members' soundcloud pages -- found here:

I quantized some of the recording to a fixed BPM, which was decided by what appeared to be the rhythm or BPM of one of the fridge's hums.

I put sections of recordings of each fridge's hum into keyfinder to estimate the key of each fridge.

I solo's hum from one of the fridge recordings and examined the EQ curve to verify what the fundamental key of the hum appeared to be. I use high que settings on bell-curves to boost frequencies that were associated with the fundamental key of the hum. I used high que settings on bell-curves to remove frequencies that appeared to be not associated with the fundamental key of the hum.

I bounced that audio file down.

I analyzed the hum sections of other recordings to verify what key they appeared to be in. I transposed them to match the key of the first fridge's hum, and applied the same EQ curves that applied to the first fridge.

Organized loops of hum into 4 layers (1 for each person's fridge).

Made & organized layers of loops from the percussion from audio files. Mixed 4 drone channels with 3 percussion layers. Reversed some of the layers of percussion. Side chained percussion layers to trigger compressions/gates in drone channels.

Added modulation of effects to duplicated layer of loops. Triggered sidechains in non-modulation effects loops and in drone channels, for compressions/gates/filters.

Added AUX Channel sent to itself for feedback & triggered it with percussion/effected channels for feedback. The AUX channel has the EQ's that were used in the beginning, and a filter.

FUCK BOY  - HOP X

This from a soon to be released album by @geneBerlin

This is an example of a recent mastering job that I've done. This shows before and after (twice).  

**Note that this is not a great example of my usual "clean sounding" mastering jobs.

On this particular job, I did a lot of coloring EQ, harmonic excitement, and saturation (way more than I normally do).  I pushed to integrated LUFS value for this track to -10.5 dB, and the ceiling (for soundcloud) is -1 dBTP.  I could easily push it much louder, but dynamics is important for this album.

I will upload some examples that are more clean, soon.
