Shameless Self Promotion

Posted by – June 9, 2006

While working on the update to this weblog late last night a song came up on the random shuffling of iTunes that piqued my interest. I found myself asking myself “who is this?”, as in which band was this. Without actually paying attention to the music more closely I simply clicked on iTunes and was pleasantly surprised that it was something that I had written last month! It felt good to have a song that was something I actually liked. So, I thought I would share it with the rest of you. Like everything I do, it is horribly incomplete. It is really just a few bars that repeat over and over, with a melody played over it. I don’t so much like the melody, but the music is good (I think).

It was created with Sonar 5.0 Producer Edition using, Reaktor 5 and TimewARP 2600 plug-ins. I really like Reaktor 5 and the TimewARP 2600. Reaktor 5 is an insanely customizeable software synthesizer, you can actually create your own new synths, but it is really complicated. The TimewARP 2600 is a software version of the classic ARP 2600 synth that one of my favourite bands, Depeche Mode, has used to create some amazing music.
