Oresus Audio Demo

A Remix of an Atari YM2149F Chiptune by !Cube.

I kept the remix close to the original melody and chord progression, because that's what the song is about.

For anyone interested in the production side of the song:

Produced and mixed 100% in Propellerhead aka ReasonStudio Reason.
Main SID/synth lead and bass lines are created with the Thor synthesizer.

Toni aka !Cube kindly provided me with the original and unzipped SND file so I could load it into the STEEM emulated instance of the MaxYMiser tracker.

From there, I meticulously transferred note for note into the Reason sequencer.
The challenge was to get the portamento/legato and vibrato right in the lead melody.

A little something I whipped up, figured I'd try and make something a little more lo-key and chill. Slow, synthpad track with undulating arpeggios and trills.

Time Is Up (feat. Diplo)

Poppy - Time Is Up (feat. Diplo)

VIDEO: https://youtu.be/Azsk21MpbUk

I started this track back in 2015 when I found these amazing clips from Magnavox and MCA about the DiscoVision Laser Disc player. One with a totally random 70s guy and the other with Leonard Nimoy talking about how amazing this technology is. I opted for only using the unknown guy as the samples with Nimoy was of such poor quality and I could get in trouble with rights to use them. I hope these are a little less known and won't invoke any bad mojo from the big Content ID monster. ;)

The song sat on the shelf for so long, and I dreaded diving into it and reworking the most of the soundscape. But I finally got the energy to do it, and I hope you like the results. ;)

A quick remix of my own remix for the album Insert Disk 2.

Project - X (Extended Summer Edit)

This is a track I started on way back in 2013. I had bought the Realivox Blue from Realitone - a vocal sample plugin for Kontakt, where you can build syllables and phrases. Recorded just one lady singing so you can get some nice stuff. However I couldn't get it to be exactly as I wanted because the pronounciation is a little limited and things tend to get artificial. So it's only oohs, aahs and such here.. but I finally got it together and finished now.. only five years on the shelf! ;)

Lyrics:
It’s 5 past 9 in the holding pen
The local class bully making rounds again
[You’re fat, you’re ugly, spotty, you are such a geek, you’re thin, you’re speccy, coward what’s the matter, freak?]
He patters down the line of  the soul defenceless.
Dishing out the shame on a cold life sentence,
Some of them may carry it for years and years,
Some of them may end up in a tarn of tears

And the bully has probably, bullies of his own... his vengeance is keen, as his parents demean him at home...

Shame... nobody ever seems to own it they just pass it on down the line...
Shame... you could be anything you wanted, till the hatred internalised
Shame... and then they put you on a drug for what you brain cannot synthesize
Shame... makes you feel unsafe in another’s eyes
Shame... makes you feel unable to go outside
Shame... shame is only lies!

People laughed at me for the longest time
I thought it was my fault for the longest time
I couldn’t shake it off for the longest time
I couldn’t shake it off for the longest time
All the time I’ve lost, it’s such a shame.

Cast off the shackles of shame, baby!
Cast off the shackles of shame.

Shame... nobody ever seems to own it they just pass it on down the line...
Shame... you could be anything you wanted!
Shame... and then they put you on a drug for what you brain cannot synthesize
Shame... makes you feel unsafe in another’s eyes
Shame... makes you feel unable to go outside
Shame... shame is only lies!

Verse 1
Amazing Jenny reads another glossy magazine,
Stuck in the world of smokey eyes.
The perfect rouge, the smashing nails; 
they are the Beauty Queens.
Oh, Jenny wants that life so bad!

Bridge
To amazing Jenny, measuring your life with fiction fakes!
Leave your fantasies behind and find your real life in new ways!

Chorus
You look amazing when you do that thing with your bad day hair! 
Amazing, amazing! You don’t seem to care!
That kind of amazing thing when you close your eyes and believe in your hips on the dance floor
Why ask for more?
You! You, on the dance floor!

Verse 2
Amazing Jenny likes and comments on her daily feed.
Another selfie from her phone.
The hunt for likes and perfect poses on the sunny greed.
Oh, Jenny wants that life so bad!

Bridge
To amazing Jenny, measuring your life with fiction fakes!
Leave your fantasies behind and find your real life in new ways!

Chorus
You look amazing when you do that thing with your bad day hair! 
Amazing, amazing! You don’t seem to care!
That kind of amazing thing when you close your eyes and believe in your hips on the dance floor
Why ask for more?
You! You, on the dance floor!

Counterpoint
Bad hair.
Bad day.
Don’t care.
Don’t dare.
Amazing ways.
Amazing days.
Oh, Jenny bad hair days!
Oh, Jenny better days!

Chorus (2x)
You look amazing when you do that thing with your bad day hair! 
Amazing, amazing! You don’t seem to care!
That kind of amazing thing when you close your eyes and believe in your hips on the dance floor
Why ask for more?
You! You, on the dance floor!

You, on the dance floor
