Crazy fast @ 177.777 bpm, this "Familiar Faces Mix" of "Back in the Subroutine" breaks for nobody.  ~_~  Additionally, many other features of the previous mixes have been expanded upon.  Furthermore, the addition of another bass sound takes the stage.  Most noticeably, perhaps, is the increase in drum breaks. 

At any rate, keep listening as this tune slowly evolves into its full fledged self over a minute after it begins!  

!~_~!  

 

Back In The Subroutine [Familiar Faces Mix]

"UFO."  New reverb + delay vst.  It's awesome.  Birthday + X-mas present.  Vocal clip from my vaults.  

Vocal clip thusly led the way in this piece.  The minimalistic melody mimics the inflections of the vocal clip.  The bassline follows suit.  The UFO-like effects are all derived from the vocal clip.  The beat...well...the beat accentuates the structure of this song.  

Spacey.  Hard.  Ambient.  140 bpm.  Rockin' steady... .    

Well, I've been immensely enjoying JGohno's music for quite some time and am excited to present a remix he made of my tune, "Geometry [Session 2 Mix]."

Cliche as it might sound, it is nevertheless true: there are far too many things I love about JGohno's mix of this tune for me to describe them all fully here.  That said, I should at least say that one thing, perhaps above all, which I am happy about is that JGohno really has taken my song "Geometry [Session 2 Mix]" into a completely new realm.  Also, the "wall of sound" tranciness is in such wonderful contrast with the hard hitting original track.  All in all, I am pleased as punch with JGohno's remix!

Geometry [Session 2 Mix (JGohno Remix)]

This is the first production-oriented DJ set I've recorded wherein I create new tunes with my previous ones in a sort of stream of consciousness fashion.  So, yes: all of the music you hear is my own original work, along with a couple collaborations from time to time.  

First recorded, second performed.  So, yah, it gets a bit out there at times, and it also settles into some sweet new grooves.  

I'll be posting more of these as time goes on.  I've got a week to work it out before I perform for 10,000 marathon runners!!! So...yah...it's GO time!  

!!!~_~!!!

...oh and the album art is also my own drawing - just sort of picked it on a whim. 

ALL comments welcome!  And, DJ's: help out this newbie to DJ'ing!  ^_^  
Essentially, I'm a producer using DJ'ing to perform my own tunes in nearly unrecognizable ways...yah? Cool.    

Swirculation #1

This is the third section of my third recorded mix of my own tunes.  It is primarily comprised of moments from my songs "Diescisiete Aulas [Artsy P11 Remix]" and "Demonstration [Spacecore Remix]".  

Swirculation 3.2

Dudes and dudettes...this is such a killer (in the nice way) tune!  This is the first collaboration between myself and A.K.A Also Known As...a brilliant up and coming producer.  

I am super and completely and happy and proud to present this tune to the world.   Between my minimalist and AKA's complexitist contributions...this tune is nothing less than totally kickin'!  

So totally rock out, space out, or whatever you will to this jam...cuz it's sooo freakin' cool!  

Cheers, mates! 

^_^

Today's Program

"Can we make a song right now?!" are the words which I STILL remember (months later) which ended up resulting in this tune.  Existing at the time at another micro-haven of this planet, in room T6,  this song was begotten by the curiosity of the inhabitants therein.  

Requests to use various instruments.  Excitement to hear the sounds.  These are the things that started this song.  

Perhaps my favorite aspect of this piece is that it truly reminds me of its day of birth, even now. 

Oh, and by request... Goooo Gators!  ^_^


T6 [Gator Mix]

It is what it is.  It ain't what it ain't.  Wiser words were never spoken.  Perhaps.  ~_~  

I made this piece, originally, upon request for a down tempo rap groove.  As per the norm for many a collaboration, I haven't heard much about the rap which was to be done over it by them.  Given how this piece of gloriousness is so...pretty...I couldn't just keep sitting on it forever.  So ... here it is in all of its ... splendor.  

~_~ 

Down Time

Incredible mind blowing bass about 2 minutes in.  Yah, it's like that.  Feel the intro before it hits ya.  

It's another classic collaboration between myself and the A.K.A.  

Frankly, I can't get this bass line out of my head.  It's one of those tunes you want to play on repeat for hours!!!  

Check it out.

Today's Program [On Tomorrow's Program Mix]

There's something genuinely awesome about digging through your ancient music files and finding gems which you then realize just HAVE to be shared!  This is one of them gems! 

Subtle differences between this "Mastered and Spaced" mix and the original mix on BASSIC LAHJIC can be found to by the astute listener...but most of all...the feel is truly ... spaced.  

~_~

SpaceKid [Mastered & Spaced Mix]

Oh my goodness, mahn.  I freaking love this song, mahn.  ~_~  

But really...another tune I've been selfishly hoarding to myself and the select few around me for many years...is finally available for all of your collective listening pleasures.  lol. 

But seriously...yah.  Let's see...I made this tune, like, freakin' YONKS ago!  It's been an all time classic in my life for a while now therefore...I hope it becomes as much or more for you.  

If you're interested, it so happens to be another tune I created for the sake of the Music Production course I created and taught over at a private institution of my past.  This one proudly wields the circle of fourths in its beauteous bass line and a fast forward version in the magical arpeggiation that occurs ever so infrequently.  

Interesting note: the bass drum in this piece became a staple of many a tune to come after it for some time... .  It also appears in the so called "bD Toms" which color the rhythmic bounce of the tune.

Anyways...it's pretty much an anthem for us daydreamers and even complete and total...spacers.   

Spacer

Boom, boom, boom.  Bounce, bounce, bounce.  

Groovin' tunin'.

Dustin' off another relic of freakin' AWESOMENESS!  ~_~ lol. 
But yah...this here is another tune I produced in the before times...when I was teaching the music production course I created.  This 'ne here is a tune which sprouted from a demonstration of different...yes, yes...you guessed it: subdivisions! Yayyy!  

!~_~!

Beyond that...this is a super massive and extremely beautiful overwhelming musical experience.  I dare ya to play it on full blast, chill'ens! 



Subdivisions (16ths, 12ths)

"There's Something New in The Void":  this song.  Yah.  It's cool.  It's long.  It takes its sweet time coming from oblivion, rockin' it hard depth core style, and returning to the emptiness.  ~_~

This here tune is dedicated to all those other creative souls out there, who pour their hearts out, try to share their truly remarkable creations and discoveries with the world via these here internets...only to have them get lost in the void...rarely heard by another soul.  

So, here's to singing your beautiful songs deep into that abyss of nothingness anyway.  

Cheers.

For those who ARE actually reading these musical descriptions of my songs:   ~_~

This tune is almost enTIREly constructed with the bass drum sound that pumps throughout the piece.  The main exceptions to this truth are the extra percussive elements, namely the claps and the hats, but even most of what is heard as percussion comes from EQ'd and effected parts of the bass drum beat.  

I performed the bass line by tweaking the controls of a distortion pedal through which I fed sections of the bass drum frequencies.  The upper bass and melodic drone are similarly originated.  

Personally, I find no end of pleasure in working one sound in so many ways as to almost build an entire piece out of it.  With more time, I might very well have done the same for the claps and hats.  Anyways... .  

Of all the pieces I've shared here on SC to date, this one takes the minimalist cake when it comes to restricted compositional techniques.  

So, enjoy!  ~_~   

Something New [In The Void]

"
Can you?

Can you hear 'em listening? to how we're feeling? 
Can you feel 'em looking? without turning or existing?

You can. 
[I can't. ]
[I can.]

You can hear 'em listening to how we're feeling. 
You can feel 'em looking without turning or existing. 
"

These are the lyrics to this song, basically.  I wrote this song eons ago while teaching Music Production 101 at a private institution.  To be honest, I can't ... remember what lesson it was to demonstrate at the moment ... or if it was meant to do so at all.

That's an upside down entity with its mouth open in astonishment at the above statement.  ~_~  

Anyways... it has ALWAYS been one of my favorite productions.  Beautiful.  Mysterious.  Cool.  

Not to ruin it for anyone, but one of the things I imagined while writing this piece were robots gaining sentience in a room being observed by their creators.  Of course, therefore, the robots are communicating to one another about their sense that someone seems to be watching them.  And, as I imagine it, they are doing this communication in a robotic variation of telepathy...something I imagined they developed without their creator's intent or awareness.  

So yah...that's one of the things running through my head when I hear this one.  What might run through yours, I wonder?

Oh...and have a happy Halloween!!!  

!@_@!





Can You

Sakura synth --> Cherry Blossom --> Tree Spirit --> Kodama. 

That's how this tune got its name.  All the sounds in this piece, outside of the percussion, are from the Sakura.  Actually, some of those percussive sounds come from Sakura, too.  

Sometimes I simply have to make a new song.  I'm only surprised I managed to hold out this long.  

Oh, and I highly recommend sticking around for the reincarnation of the tree spirit after the five minute marker.  

~_~



Kodama

2 Through 6

You might recognize the basic inspirational whistle motif carried initially by the bassline, then by the melody, then by both in unison.  

I've been wanting to produce a tune based on this idea for quite some time...along with many other such notions waiting to be actualized.  I suppose we'll just have to see which ones finally go from my mind to your ears, eh?  

!^_^!

Whistle Bass [Oh My Mix]

Music Production 101 project demonstration from way back in the day, now, finally mastered and shared with y'alls.  

Rock out.  Space out.  Spacerock out.

My Other Car Is A UFO [Mastered]

Third Section, last section.  Super goodah.  

Melody gets a little distortedly loud.  Sounds nice.  

Good times, come on, yah? 

^_~

ORF III Record Test Third Section

In attempt to remix my first mix to a more "rated G" version...for reasons that shall remain unstated ... I managed to create this, well, more "rated PG" version.  Frankly, I love it.  As much as I love the original verses, I am quite fond of the censorship inspired (?!) splices and such.  

Plus, more wonderful details came from remixing this track...as is nearly always the case.  Perhaps this variation is more suitable for general radio play?  What do y'all think?  
I find limitations a very productive approach to creativity...  how's about ya'll?  ;p

Your Body_Don G [Rotozane PG Remix]

*All songs are all original, built from the ground up.  Sampled sound bites? For sure.  Sampled drum loops?  No...I make 'em ... along with the lot of it!  ~_~

*Leave me some comments, my wonderful listeners! They help to fill my life with happiness. 

*Anyone out there who wishes to remix/mashup one of my tunes, go for it!  All I ask is that you let me hear it.  ~_~

Rotozane, aka Swircle 987, aka Swirculations, aka Will Beazley...is an Abstractician, i.e. one who explores the abstract such as mathematics, music, and art.  

As for his music, it is all original from the ground up.  He creates his own beats, bass lines, harmonies, melodies, sounds, etc. .  Not a single element of a track is in one of his tunes that has not been at least tweaked a bit.  

Rotozane has been making music since...forever.  ^_^  It's a defining aspect of his existence and always will be.  

Anyways...enjoy these carefully crafted songs, singles, and albums!  

= = =
Rotozane is quite busy exploring the abstract universes of mathematics, currently, though he intends to take a few temporal units to polish off and share some of his already produced tunes from the past.  So, stay tuned in!  ^_~
