This is something I think I wrote whilst stoned at university as part of a remix contest / massive feat of proactive procrastination. I have NO idea what genre of music this is, but there's a lot of violin in there and drums that have been flanged beyond what is artistic (?!)

It's bit crap but it's also kinda hilarious so I'm sharing it with you guys :3

Hope you like it / lulz are had

Just added a new Massive tutorial around modifying a basic 8/16 bit synth preset for your own evil ends. More to come, along with sample giveaways etc, when I find some time.

I'll fill in a bit more info later :)

Cheers

I wrote this at University, probably instead of doing an essay or partying (I was a pretty ridiculous student) Anyway, it's based around Cittagaze, the City Of Magpies from Phillip Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy of books. I love the idea of a seaside town haunted by soul eating spectres, inhabited solely by children and teenagers, waiting to die or to leave the town forever.

The levels need some work and I want to redo some of the orchestration on the string lines (the 'wall of sound' needs breaking up - also shit's way too loud).  That's why I call it a WIP. But you get an idea of where it is going!

Hi.

I've been a producer and vocalist for a while and I noticed that there weren't many samples of overtone chanting available to musicians on the interwebs. So I decided to record some for you to do what you want with. These are royalty free etc.

Overtone singing is performed all over the world, but the main influence for these recordings would be the style of the Tuva people in Southern Siberia. Though I would hardly call what I've recorded 'Tuvan style', cos I've never been there, nor have I met a Tuvan person who could give me some critique. But it sounds pretty scary with a bit of reverb and that's what I was going for...

If you wanna see the overtone singing equivalent of Pavarotti or something - check out Alex Glenfield ( http://www.youtube.com/user/Glenfuch ) and his demo of the seven styles of Overtone singing:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zZainT9v6Q

More samples of chanting that you can do what the hell you want with can be found on http://www.freesound.org/ - djgriffin's recordings are a cool place to start http://www.freesound.org/people/djgriffin/

Hope you find em useful. If you use any of them, I wanna know about it...

Also if you want some overtone vocals for your extreme black metal project, hit me up. I'm only half joking :3

Here's the Mediafire download link to the samples:

Enjoy!

Hi there...

This is another test to see if people find my sound design of any use.

All the percussive sounds in the above demo (which was smashed together in 10 minutes) are enclosed in the download link at the bottom of this description...

So, here's a collection of glitchy and '8 bit' type noises, loosely grouped into sound categories for percussive kit construction (load the .WAVs into your sampler…), general sound design/abuse, etc.
 
Hope you find em useful. If you use any of them, I wanna know about it...

Regarding usage… There's no catch. No mailing list you have to sign up to. No page you have to 'Like on Facebook' to unlock them. Fuck all that nonsense. I just want to put some good stuff out there.

I'm also willing upload all the samples as a Battery kit (which is what I use), if there's enough demand.

Anyway, Enjoy!
-J

More orchestral music, with lots of piano. Another work in progress. I find it nearly impossible to actually call a 'classical' track finished. But instead of being a perfectionist I just upload stuff anyway and say 'fuck it'. 

Carpe diem. 

The outro solo was meant to be played on a violin but my violin had other ideas so you'll have to settle for a synth solo >:D

Havn't completely finished with levelling this one and tweaking the droppy bits. But it's near done and at the point where I can share it with y'all :3

Fun fact: I got nothing against disco.

I periodically get the idea into my head that remixing tracks from Sonic is a good idea (it usually isn't). Here's a demo of the final boss theme from Sonic 3

Super rough but you can see where it's going. It's going to bad places.

This is what my procrastinating sounds like.

Also I used an ocarina. I don't know why I don't do that more.

I think this is a dark ambient song with a drop in the middle.

More songs about Mars.

Some gnarly orchestral shit about the home of The Sirens, or something like that.

It's not mean to be nice, or beautiful, or easy listening. It's meant to fatigue your ears.  Like the sirens... :3

This is a song about filling bad people with shrapnel, for the Flynn album, which might actually get released :)

There is no cha cha but the kickdrums sometimes sound like a chaingun maybe. 

Gotta Meshuggah kinda sound going on with the main riff for this. Gonna start calling my shit 'electrometal' and see if anyone gets offended.

Some meandering sounds about a Thracian city visited by Odysseus on his somewhat ridiculous tour around the Mediterranean. He meandered, I meander. There's a theme here, or something?

There's a longer bit that comes after this (I think it's like 7 minutes total), but i was actually happy with the first half, which is like the shorter version for now. I'll probably tweak the second part and release a longer version of this eventually...

A song about Hekate, Supreme Goddess of sorcery and generally pulling off a bunch of weird shit in the dark. She is often represented as having 3 forms or heads. Considering what she represents this is a pretty upbeat song.

This is an old production and needs a little work on the audio levelling (the strings are beating the crap out of...well, everything else). 

Maybe one day when I get time or someone cares enough I'll fix it. 'Til then you'll have to endure ^_^

This'll be the outro to the Flynn album. A softer track than most of the rest of it. It's a song about leaving stuff behind. Also I need to tweak the drums a bit.

You can download the track from Soundcloud for the full sonic experience... :D
