____________________________________________________________________ | | | Saga Musix presents: Progressively Backwards (6:27) | |____________________________________________________________________| After a rather short and quickly made track in the streamed music compo at Revision 2015, I guess I'm fully back into the trance music business! Again with tons of selfmade Synth1 patches. Did you know that I have released a Synth1 bank containing 128 new awesome presets for this great synth? No? Well, head to my website and grab them, they're free: http://sagamusix.de/de/samples/ Anyway... this track came to life after listening to an unreleased 46-minute coop tune bacter sent me, and I really liked one of the melodies in the tune - in the end it turned out that melody was even bacter's melody, so this is yet another kind of coop between us, I guess? :D So when I toyed around with the melody, I thought that it would sound really nice if it was used as an acid line, hence I grabbed Synth1 and one of my 303 patches for it, copied the melody over and started experimenting. Initially this was supposed to be hard trance... well, I guess I missed that goal. But the result is still a bangin' trance track, and I like it! I hope you like it too! The beautiful fifth chords were kind of an accident, too. I wanted to jam along the acid line with some big pad on the Roland D-50, but I forgot that I had a fifth pad loaded - so I decided to use some fifth chords! After I reached the 4 minute mark, I decided to add a proper (somewhat DJ-compatible) intro and a longer outro. For the compo version at Outline, I removed those again. In the compo version, the tune stopped at pattern 34 (jumping to pattern 39). I really like how the tune picks up all its energy again after pattern 34, something that's completely missing in the compo version. -Saga Musix, 22nd of May 2015 ____________________________________________________________________________ Greeting fly out to everyone I have met at Outline 2015, in particular: Alpha C, arvenius, Beetle, Bombe, cerror, cyraxx, DaTucker, deathy, dfox, Dino, Dipswitch, dojoe, draugven, Gasman, havoc, IndustrialPope, insane, Kabuto, KB, Knoeki, Luisa, Maali, Madame, mbb, MedO, Metheara, Metoikos, mog, moqui, mutti, nekomono, nodepond, OhLi, Okkie, Picard, Pixman, rc55, Rene, Sabryas, SunSpire, T$, Tektra, Tolle, Topy44, v3nom, vickey, Widdy, Wiklund, xylo, Zaxe and everyone I forgot. ____________________________________________________________________________ This work is (c) 2015 by Saga Musix of Nuance and is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 License.
