Mixing Session(s)

Holla peeps!

Have to put some of my production duties on the back burner for a bit. Massive mixing session!! An album's worth of songs i previously mixed (that secret project) has to be re-done. Executive heads voiced out that its a bit on the heavy side and needs to be commercialized a bit. Dang it. Means i got to pull back on the guitars and up the vocals.

In doing so i realized i got to redo the drum mixes as well, which basically re-setting all the tracks back to zero and starting fresh!

So back to that zone where u have to envision how the track is going to sound before its done and guide it to that direction in the mix.... hence the reason i love my job... i llluuuurrrrrvvveee mixing!

Hell its tiring and at times confusing... but when u get to here the end process versus the beginning stage... Magic mutha *uckas.

Peace One

ps. big ups to the band for having the patience for the magic to work...

Something Analog

Ladies and Gents, esp those kind enough to read this here Blog. I thank you for your attention.

You read the title kan? OK... SOMETHING ANALOG

is a brand spanking new something so freakin different that you wouldn't believe!

Its a combination of talents... yours truly and Rainer Yong!
hhahahahahaha... eh... seriouly.

I'll be handling the beats and efx while Rainer will be manning the Guitar and Vox.
How will we sound... Err... take a listen to Team Sleep and you'll get the idea.
Quick 411 on Rainer will be up once i refresh my memory.

We should be starting work as soon as tomorrow! ahh.. bless the internet and e-mail. Even tho we're both in KK, we're tired of looking at each others ugly face!

On other news... i'll be playing Chill out and Laid Back music for the Sabahan Blogger's Gathering! (Will post more info on this later too)

Finishing a Beat for ThaRandomMC, and starting production on 2 tracks for Russell of SoulChamber.

Also in talk to do a remix of one of Infinatez song.

Really lazy now... and i need to record my own stuff too....

Holla

I DO IT USING...

Softwares. A blessing and a curse. For those who can't play musical instruments... i couldn't play shit 3 year back. Software is everything.
I "use" to live on samples. For those who don't know, its snippets of audio, a bass line, a keyboard playing 4 chords. I use to take bits and pieces and put it all together as something new. Shit i still do that, just not as dependent as before la...
The 3 songs you can here from my blog and the one i put up for download were all done on SONY ACID PRO 6. 100% loops...

Anyways just to sum things up since my mind suddenly just went blank... now a days i use multiple software to create a song... i finally pieced the flow of linking softwares when i was working at RAM Production. Now i'm working at a iMotion Production. for those who are using softwares like Cakewalk or Cubase for production, try using the ReWire function. even Fruity Loops has it.

Ok enuff is enuff... my production is something like this, work flow wise

- Start thing off with the drums on Fruity Loops
- Rearrange it and add elements with Acid Pro
- Add MIDI and more stuff on Sonar 6
- Export all the Fruity and Acid stuff to individual wave (Satu channel = Satu Wave file)
- Bring it all into Sonar and record vocals and Mix in Sonar 6
- Edit and Master the wave file in Sound Forge 8

now my secret is 50% exposed. the rest is 40% pure luck / skill and 10% my sample and sound library
