Brilliant! Don’t want to be too strict on the rules, since the purpose of the battles is to have fun and be creative, but if there’s one principle that the battles have always had, it’s the one about the end product being the result of recording to the OP-1 album. So let’s uphold that tradition. =)
Got it before the deadline! Yay!
Supercool battle rules this time. Thanks @vehka!
My song:
Everything was played without the sequencers. No outboard gear
I tried to make it sound like an original kind of. I added lots of noise and tackles…
I only played very short samples. No loops used. Except for the beginning you can’t really tell the original song, maybe the violin break… that’s true
The piano sounds are made with String.
I really like the original, it’s such a good composition and very glamorous.
And it was recorded not far from my flat
I lost track of the tabs I had open to grab sources, but I used a song called How Long and a piece from Gershwin out of the archives, as well as a bassline I laid down with a Minilogue and a few snippets of FM radio.
Great, three more entries! I think the last timezone enters Monday around noon Euro time today, but I can postpone the close until tonight if somebody still wants to squeeze in an entry?
this is actually my first song I did entirely on the op and I learned a lot. However I’m not quite happy with the mix, basically I did the whole song with headphones in my bed but well here we go:
Unfortunately I can’t find the song I sampled it was some kind of latin joint and I sampled the first horn phrase and horn orchestral section. I made everything with it except the pad/chord, bass, drums and marimba lead.
