New Track! Glow (Original Mix)

--Download--

A bit of a story behind this track. The most unusual thing is that I made it entirely over last weekend originally for a school project (started Friday the 5th at 6:24 PM, finished Sunday the 7th at 3:15 PM), and what's more, in a deep house-ish style, completely new to me. I intended to add my own singing, but I was sick the night I had to finish it, and couldn't record anything I was happy with, so I left the track as it was and finished the schol project by other means. Meanwhile I had a finished track and nothing to do with it, so I thought I would touch it up and add a melody to replace the intended lyrics. I still couldn't come up with anything I liked, so I thought I'd upload it and share it as is. :) Here's Glow!

If you wish to review, just leave your review here as a comment. Informal comments are also appreciated. :)

As for the next several weeks, I doubt I'm going to be producing any new tracks before I leave on vacation this coming Friday (the 19th). However, I will be bringing my producing computer with me, and will be able to produce - so perhaps by the time I come back I'll have made decent progress on a new track or two. :D I'm also getting some new sounds for the holidays/my birthday, so that should also help. Last, the Unleashed CD - I plan to release it in Q1 2009 when I have time, I'll make an announcement when new progress is being made. :D

Interesting track. Not sure what I think of it, to be honest. Vaguely reminds me of something halfway like Gabriel & Dresden, until a Deadmau5-sounding breakdown, which isn't a bad thing. You could do a lot more with the sound, though; it didn't go anywhere in particular. If you tried working with house-y productions more, who knows what you could come up with?

Have a good vacation! I'm on winter break as well and my voice has finally returned to me, huzzah.

Never listened to Gabriel & Dresden, and funny thing - I started listening to Deadmau5 right AFTER I finished this track. :D If you wanted to know, my inspirations for this track were,
Before the break, 16 Bit Lolitas - Murder Weapon
During and after the break, Signalrunners - Meet Me in Montauk (though it's definitely more reminiscent of Deadmau5).

I could have definitely gone a lot further, I was planning to add vocals but was too sick to sing when I intended to record, and never bothered adding a melody instead. I'm getting new house sounds in the near future and overall getting into House, so no doubt my style will be moving in that direction soon. I'm excited. :D

Thanks, and the same to you - enjoy your break.
