You did a great job, Grzegorz. The piece unfolds beautifully and you put it together really well. Brilliant drums and guitars. I really don't feel like a contributor to this piece in any way. I changed a few rhythmic solutions in the guitars and advised you on some changes in dynamics - that's all :) Bravo, especially for you!

mighty cool; got a bit of a Metallica feel to it

Collabs

♥️ Thank You very much for over 1800 plays! ♥️

This track is a tribute to genre which flourish in 90's, a love letter to bands like US3, Jazzmatazz, Incognito, Brand New Heavies, Groove Collective and of course Miles Davies and his marvellous "Doo-Bop".

I started working on this piece around July 2022. I've stuck on my inability to do any advanced jazz solos/improvisation and embellishments so this track ended up in my "musical drawer".
Luckily, after finishing my previous piece "Vital Signs", where I used sax VST, I shyly approached Jörg aka @joerxworx with a request to evaluate my saxophone scribbles and a proposal to finish my unrealized piece.
Jörg turned out to be a nice, understanding guy who willingly joined this project. At this point, I would like to thank him very much for this wonderful contribution to this piece, a lot of advice he gave me and a lot of patience for my slow work.

If You like this piece You should definitely check Jörg's page, he created lot of amazing tracks!

关云长　Guan Yun Chang（？～２２０）

Guan Yun Chang was a Chinese figure from about 1,800 years ago.

He is a popular figure in the Records of the Three Kingdoms, and for some reason is now worshipped as a god of commerce.

He remained loyal to Liu Bei, the founder of Shu Han, and was admired by many of his contemporaries, including Cao Cao, for his extraordinary bravery and sense of duty.

Among the military commanders appearing in "Epic of the Three Kingdoms," he was as popular as Zhuge Liang, and because he valued righteousness, later generations deified him and designated him as the Guan Di (Guan Emperor).

He is worshiped as the god of business in Chinatowns around the world. He is given special treatment in "Epic of the Three Kingdoms" and is described as Kwan Gong rather than Guan Yu.

❤️❤️❤️ Thank You all so much for over 2000 plays of this collab track! ❤️❤️❤️

On may 2024 (so it's passed 6 months...) @belial-pelegrim presented to the world Taffeta 189 which can be found here >> https://soundcloud.com/belial-pelegrim/taffeta-189. A masterfully crafted piece from his unfinished story-driven musical series.
From the very beginning, this track fascinated me to such an extent that a melody immediately appeared in my head. In a burst of self-confidence, I asked the Master for the file of this song so that I could put my melodic ideas into it, just like I did with Donak RV's song https://soundcloud.com/r-u-r-pl/duo-melodica-rur-nylon-guitar-remix. And the strangest thing is, he willingly agreed to my idea!
So I tried it and here we are. It's been a while since then, but I think I've finally finished it. I sincerely hope that you will like the effect of this cooperation.

If you are intrigued by this song and you haven't heard the music of @belial-pelegrim yet, and you would like to listen to more (I assure you, it's really worth it!), please visit his profile for more!

To add my two cents to this track, I used the following plugins:
Free Spitfire LABS - Electric Piano - Chorus
Free Spitfire BBC SO Discover - Trumpets, Flutes and Oboes
Free Native Instruments Kontakt 8 Player
Free Heavyocity Foundations - Staccato Strings
Replika XT effect
Free iZotope Ozone 11 EQ
ujam UFX Reverb - which I got for free during the promotion after the publication of this plugin
and also received for free from Novation for their 30th anniversary - iZotope Ozone 9 Elements

Words and Music by Roger Whittlesey. All sound by Whittlesey. ©2024

Dear Reader, 

Sometimes when I place my hands on the piano, chords sequences just happen. This was the case with Thickets of Time. I suddenly found myself playing the strange inversions of the first four chords, and then I was off. The rest of the song wrote itself. 

The beautiful delay on the drums was an accident. A happy accident. I love it when that happens. 

This calendar year has had its hills and valleys, and no doubt anyone who has been listening to my music can hear both ends of the geographical spectrum. I don't believe that this song reflects any one moment, but is simply a statement of what it is to be human living in time. 

I hope you find something of value in the song. 

Thanks as always for your continued listening. 

All My Best, 

Roger Whittlesey

Love At First Sight

NO A.I. INVOLVED
It all started in late 2022 while driving. I heard a song on the radio that inspired me to create this piece. I only heard it once, I don't know the author(s) or the title of this song.

After creating the core/mockup of the song, I presented it to Brian Butts (@brian-butts-565934842), which is amazing multi instrumentalist, and asked if he would record a guitar solo similar in idea to the solo from "The Break in Tranquility" https://soundcloud.com/r-u-r-pl/the-break-in-tranquility, which I had previously asked him to review. He agreed to this willingly and that's how my first ever collab was created.

I actually regret a little that this song is a bit too slow, but trying to speed it up caused Brian's solo to fall apart, and my skills don't yet allow me to properly edit it.

This song was lying in my "drawer" for over 2 years. I wasn't fully satisfied with what I did and its sound. I wasn't able to come up with a good Bridge and make it a full-fledged song. In the end I decided to release it as is. I only modified some parts to maintain the feeling of the progression of the arrangement.

Sorry Brian, my friend, that it took so long, but my perfectionism https://w.wiki/9XhH makes me constantly dissatisfied with what I do and often prevents me from finishing the songs.

Thanks to my friend ••kavvka •• (@grzegorzkawka), for his constant support, patiently listening to subsequent versions and lots of good advice.

To craft this piece I used
Ableton Live Standard
Ableton Live's Simpler
NI Massive
Spitfire Originals Epic Strings
Spitfire Originals Epic Brass & Woodwinds
iZotope Ozone 9 Elements
Impact Soundworks Shreddage 3 Stratus Free (only when the guitar enters)
Arturia Filter MS-20
Valhalla Supermassive (Free)
iZotope Ozone Imager (Free)

I also used 3 MIDI drum loops from free libraries in Ableton LIVE.

Thanks for listening. I hope You'll enjoy.

...And Justice for D-Punks

A bit late for the end of summer, but I hope you enjoy this melancholic atmosphere.

This is a song I started composing in August 2024, with the idea of ​​featuring a real guitar solo, especially at the end. This summer, I approached Chris Grant @chris-grant-554540731 about joining the project. He loved the idea, and what I've included here is the result of that collaboration. His solo made a huge impression on me, and I'd like to thank him for his fantastic contribution. Without that guitar, this song wouldn't exist! Thank you so much, Chris!
If you want to listen to more of his amazing music, please visit his profile: @chris-grant-554540731!

I hope you enjoy his contribution and our song as a whole!

If you use generative AI in any form to create "your music", don't bother with my profile, you are not welcome here.

I do not support the use of generative AI in music creation. I will not support people who use such technologies nor will I use them. The two songs I posted only serve to raise awareness of the existence of such technologies and as a warning.

At the beginning I would like to sincerely apologize that I am responding to comments late and I am sometimes unable to keep up with listening to your work, but I still work full-time in a profession that has absolutely nothing to do with music and I have my duties towards family and home.

To everyone who flew into my corner on SoundCloud: I am grateful for your support with likes, shares and thank you for the great comments. Please don't hesitate to suggest changes to my music in them. Thanks to this, the next songs will be better and better.

All my music is MIDI (except some drum loops), played/created by me and edited in Ableton Live.
