FLAG | Moder Music for Funerals

Created in: Ableton Live, Studio One 5

https://mmff.bandcamp.com/track/flag

Flag is a slight twist from the stuff we normally produce. Leaning towards neo-classical, Flag is a collection of warm pulsing synths with classical elements such as choir, violins, cellos, percussion, and various brass instruments.

Created over the past couple of months, the track is a dynamic soundscape that builds the sound of a full orchestra alongside a percussive backdrop and full choir.

As always, please let us know what you think..

Be extra safe out there..

Final Approach - MMFF

Something different from us.. The final Approach is a deep soundscape of world percussion and harmonising vocals, set to a wide collection of strings and classical orchestration.

It gets better with volume, but crappier on bad speakers.

Diving Bell | MMFF

Something odd, something strange..

Diving Bell is an acoustic soundscape that follows an underwater vessel through various depths..

Just fancied something different, but it sounds great with headphones on and under the influence of life.

Blue Planet (Atsuhiko Mix)

A dark formidable track featuring the one and only Carl Sagan reminding us just how precious our perfect blue dot is and just how relevant we are.

One of our darkest tracks to date, featuring various samples, deep drones and pulsating synths.

Dig deep, turn off the lights, crank it up and go..

Another alternative electronica release from MMFF and Atsuhiko Cook..

Life Support

Captured this sound whilst walking through the Warwickshire countryside.

These are great sounds and I use them a lot in my music, normally adding various acoustic plugins, such as bit-depth, reverb, delay, compression, and anything else I can throw at it.

This recording is dry, normalised in Adobe Audition and free for anyone to use;)

Sound recorded using an AKG C411L Condensor (Contact/Vibration) Microphone, attached to a wooden post that held steel wire fencing designed to keep cows from mixing with humans.

Further recording, are from the microphone being placed between the fence-post and the wire itself.

It was captured using a ZOOM F6, with 32 Bit Floating format.

The sound you can hear is the cows brushing up against the fence.

A Transmutation of Friendship, built around a deep sub pulse that builds and drops throughout the track.

The track is lighter than my normal moods but still pulls a dark theme as it blends distant pads with echoes and blends of reverberated stabs.

It's really worth, sitting back with this.. Just hang in as the drop and climb out is more than euphoric..

Beach | Ambient soundscape, capturing the sounds of Playa Del Carmon, as I sat watching the sun disappear for the final night of our trip. Backed by slowly building synth pads that morph across the audio sound space.

Mexico, Yucatan Peninsula,  of my favorite locations on the planet, the sounds of these waves make you realise how home amazing or home is.
