Song - See Line Woman Remix v1

This was mixed last night, it took about 8 hours solid. I was listening to A live Nina Simone album and a gem of a song came on - "See Line Woman". It's a very sexy, rhythmic and repetative song almost like some kind of tribal chant, perfect for a dance remix. In the process of making this I have learnt in detail how the complex beat warping works. It's a time consuming process to sync each bar up but worth it. An amazing feature of Ableton. The intro beat is a Reason rex loop chopped up a bit so is the digeridoo and the 909 drums also come from a reason refill i have. The Indian drums are from the Live clip library, there's an autopan effect on them. The bass and guitars are all my recordings, I think they may be out a bit, may need to redo. I also learnt that you can cut up clips in the arrangement view by simply selecting a section and dragging it. This allows a quick way of making drum fills, something i was struggling with before. My fault for not reading the manual. The whole mix is going through the PSP Vintage Warmer compression VST plugin as will all my sets from now on. The combination of the bass guitar, beats and dark scale remind by a bit of an U.N.K.L.E tune.

Song - Gaps that don't exist v1

Hi this is a song heavily influenced by DJ Krush, in particular the double bass sound in Ha Doh. I've just used my bass guitar with modulation to create the weird effect. This is my first use of the amazing PSP Vintage warmer VST. It is used on the whole mix with a preset. Reason is used heavily through out, all the beats are Dr Rex. I figured out you can save the midi rex info from Reason into a file then load that into Ableton. The scratching effect is also from Reason and is heavily choped up in Dr Rex. Its also going through reverb and distortion through Reason.
