SLS # 91 - May 2025 (Both Sides of the Record)

Electric Sitar
Psychedelic Experience
http://www.ueberschall.com/goto/760/Electric_Sitar

The Electric Sitar is a very special instrument with a distinctive and exotic sound. It hints at the instrument's Indian origins. But it has a more contemporary edge in its electric form. From psychedelic Rock to cinematic soundtracks, the sound of the Electric Sitar creates a musical atmosphere all of its own.


Adds Instant Character To Any Project

The library contains 2.6 GB of sample data and over 1600 individual loops and phrases. The content is organized into four main folders:

1. Electric Sitar (890 Loops)
2. Percussion Kits (349 Loops)
3. Electric Bass (142 Loops)
4. Live Session Kits (288 Loops)

The star of the show is the huge collection of Electric Sitar phrases. The 445 phrases were played on a Danelectro Sitar and are organized into 10 tempo and key based folders.  Original tempos range from 78 to 128 BMP but can easily be adjusted within Elastik. Each phrase is supplied in both Amp and DI versions for flexibility and ready for any additional effects such as reverb or delay that you wish to add while mixing. The loops include extended melodic phrases (up to 12 seconds long) with naturally decaying end notes, loopable licks/riffs, individual chords and performance FX.


Packed With Complementary Loops

While the Electric Sitar loops could be dropped into any musical context, the library also includes three folders of complementary loops:

Percussion Kits - an extensive collection of 17 sub-folders full of percussion loops. These have been recorded live with four musicians using a range of percussion instruments in a rehearsal session performance. The recordings have not been quantized, providing a natural, organic, rhythmic bed. Instruments include tablas, congas, bongos, frame drums, cymbals and tambourines. A further folder is included with some electronic drum loops for additional variety.

Electric Bass - a collection of over 70 Electric Bass loops. These share the same sub-folder structure as the Electric Sitar including the same key/tempo combinations. Both Amp and DI versions of each loop are provided.

Live Session Kits - a similar collection of live recorded rehearsal sessions but this time including tonal instruments like acoustic guitar, flute and sitar. The folder structure follows that of the Electric Sitar loops making it easy to blend their contents into a musical project. The extensive material works just as well without the electric sitar, providing the basis for meditative New Age projects.


Perfect For Psychedelic Rock Or Film Scoring

From a homage to the psychedelia of the 60s, to adding a hint of mystery to a film score or crossing over into modern electronic music styles such as House, Hip Hop or Techno, the sound of the Electric Sitar will catch both the ears and the imagination of your audience. The loop pack is a perfect complement to our 60s Psychedelic Rock and 60s Acid Rock 1 & 2 libraries. However, the distinctive character of the Electric Sitar means these loops can be used to add a ‘world music’ flavour to any musical project.

ALTAMONT

You know I miss the music of the Mamas & the Papas
And the holes in my blue jeans.
‘Cause who else but a flower child could listen to Donovan and
Tell you what it means?
The Byrds, they took you flying, took you 8 miles high,
Then they’d lightly settle down.
And there’s no satisfying the Rolling Stones and their 19th Nervous Breakdown.

The Beatles tried to tell you all you needed was love if you’d
Just peace a chance.
And all across the country they were feeling so good when they
Hit the streets to dance.
Listen to the message of the Lovin’ Spoonful, ‘cause you know it is for free.
What a day for a daydream, and a daydream’s still good enough for me.

The music’s gonna take you where you’ve never been before.
Gonna take you to the edge and open up the door.

INSTRUMENTAL

Crosby, Still, Nash and Young were teaching all their children you should
Know your parents well.
And Dylan had us seeing all the multiples of reasons we should
Ring the freedom bell.
The Band was hypnotizing,Joni Mitchell fantasizing
‘bout the Woodstock of our youth.
If the radio would play it, they felt the need to say it,
‘cause we all should hear the truth.

The music’s gonna take you where you’ve never been before.
Gonna take you to the edge and open up the door.

My friends, they tell me, “Scott, you’re living in the past
And there’s just no future there.
Nostalgia is fine, but it will never last, music won’t take you anywhere.
I look at them with a tear in my eye, and I tell them they are wrong.
I’ve been twice around the world and I never left - never left my song.
Whoa, listen to the music. All the time

To those who don't know where Birkenhead is https://maps.app.goo.gl/tFScQJRC98ELKLDZ9

A five minute song cannot chronicle everything about the Beatles but this hints at how childhood was affected by their rise throughout the sixties. 

This is from the viewpoint of someone who was too young to see the Beatles live but grew up as they grew up, so to speak. NEMS was North End Music Shop run by Brian Epstein. You would travel to Liverpool via 'Ferry Cross The Mersey' as it was the cheapest and most popular mode of transport there. The New Brighton Tower unfortunately had to be demolished but it was similar to Blackpool Tower and there was a large open area fairground at the bottom. Now housing... The ballrooms are no longer. Hulme Hall is still there. The 1973 McCartney special has a major scene in a pub near the River Mersey in Wallasey. 

The Plaza was a cinema in Borough Road. 

A wireless was the name given to a transistor radio.

The ending part is a nod to the way the Beatles created a cacophony of sound at the end of a track and the final notes are a nod to 'All You Need Is Love.

PAROLES - LETRAS - LYRICS :

À toi
À la façon que tu as d'être belle
À la façon que tu as d'être à moi
À tes mots tendres un peu artificiels
Quelquefois

À toi
À la petite fille que tu étais
À celle que tu es encore souvent
À ton passé, à tes secrets
À tes anciens princes charmants

À la vie, à l'amour
À nos nuits, à nos jours
À l'éternel retour de la chance
À l'enfant qui viendra

Qui nous ressemblera
Qui sera à la fois toi et moi

À moi
À la folie dont tu es la raison
À mes colères sans savoir pourquoi
À mes silences et à mes trahisons
Quelquefois

À moi
Au temps que j'ai passé à te chercher
Aux qualités dont tu te moques bien
Aux défauts que je t'ai cachés
À mes idées de baladin

À la vie, à l'amour
À nos nuits, à nos jours
À l'éternel retour de la chance

À l'enfant qui viendra
Qui nous ressemblera
Qui sera à la fois toi et moi

À nous
Aux souvenirs que nous allons nous faire
À l'avenir et au présent surtout

À la santé de cette vieille terre
Qui s'en fout

À nous
À nos espoirs et à nos illusions
À notre prochain premier rendez-vous
À la santé de ces millions d'amoureux
Qui sont comme nous

À toi

À la façon que tu as d'être belle
À la façon que tu as d'être à moi
À tes mots tendres un peu artificiels
Quelquefois

À toi
À la petite fille que tu étais
À celle que tu es encore souvent
À ton passé, à tes secrets
À tes anciens princes charmants

paroles : Claude Lemesle et Pierre Delanoë
composée : Jean Baudlot et Joe Dassin.

Ycare & Axelle Red - A Toi #Niskens & Jianina

Originally from the Wirral (OMD land!), I now live in London. Almost all of my career was in IT, Project Management and lack of time and technology meant I never really pursued a music career. The lockdown and technology advances have meant I could teach myself and learn to compose songs. I don’t like to stick to one genre but rather try and ‘parody’ styles. Some melodies have been in my head for years and in some cases words have changed over the years. My aim is really to creat a ‘potpourri’ of sounds such that someone somewhere will enjoy something on here!!!!

I also create videos for my songs and for other artists . Same name on YouTube. 

If anyone likes a song/instrumental enough to want to use it (even if it means re-recording it yourself) feel free to contact me here. 

Stay safe.
