This a recording of a diabolo from the side whilst it's spin is allowed to slow down, creating a long bass frequency drop, using a large diaphragm condenser mic (Samson C03) the electric "squeeling" is due to a faulty power supply being used for recording equipment. 

Diabolo Bass

Recorded in DKit, I used a drum tunnel technique as seen used in Nirvana's album Nevermind. I used an empty kick drum shell placed in front of the kick drum with an AKG D112 placed in front of the kick as normal and an AKG C414 at the end of the tunnel. The track plays in this order: AKG D112, AKG C414 and then the two combined. At the end of the track a hit from each is played for comparison. This track contains no EQ alterations.

Drum Tunnel Technique Comparison

Bróna Howard demonstrating some excellent percussion instrument skills on a mysterious abstract object, Bróna performed the percussion and vocals herself because, well, it's the cup song. I used a samson C03 on the vocals and a Rode M5 as a percussive/room mic. There's a slight electric squeeling in the background of this track again, a tech issue that I'm currently working on getting fixed. Anyway, do enjoy and don't forget to share and/or download if you like it!

Marian O'Brien ft. Luke Moore - War Machine (ACDC Cover)

This is a college project for Electronic Music Production. My aim for this project was to create an electronic song within Reason 5 that reflects my idea of Circus Arts Performance. This track sounds like there's a lot going on at its peak but that to me perfectly embodies Circus Arts, complete chaos and control all at once. I hope you enjoy this track, please feel free to comment good or bad and if you like it give it a share on social media and we'll see how many people it can reach. Thanks for listening!

Steven Marron - Welcome to the Saga Circus

This is an original track by Molly Carr, recorded in the Dundalk institute of Technology recording studios as part of my third year, second semester production project. A lot of work went into this song, as well as research regarding the genre of Indie Pop and I'd like to thank the many different musicians, engineers and lecturers who aided in its development. This song could have been taken in any direction from it's acoustic guitar and vocals demo due to it's diverse nature. However, having worked with Molly before I felt that Indie Pop would be the most successful direction, also taking some inspiration from "Echosmith - Cool Kids" which was popular at the time of production . I hope you enjoy and don't be afraid to leave a comment, give it a like, share with whoever you so please and download for free. Thank you!
