Marks-a-lot's News

Posted by Marks-a-lot - January 9th, 2009


Well, I was working on the song "Furial" and it turned into "Last Breath." I kept playing and changing stuff with it and I am still not satisfied with the way the bass sounds and the awkward gap in frequencies that needs to be filled somehow. That song aside though I am done with it for now. I will leave both of them up so if anybody can add some suggestions on how to equalize it a bit more you can do that.

Now then, on to the present! I am currently working on a Calyx and Teebee style drums and bass song which I am calling "Flat Line" and I am nailing everything on the button so far with this one. It should come out very nice, a clean simple just Drum and Bass. Im moving along pretty fast with this one too so expect it to be out soon!

It was kind of funny how I started this song though, I was laying in my bed trying to go to sleep while listening to my DNB playlist on my zune (which I do all the time.) And I started actually listening to the songs and I was just figuring out how the bass lines and crazy sounds go and how they fit in. Then after I fell asleep I had a dream and in it it was like the instructions for drum and bass just came to me (I know it sounds ridiculous but it's true.) So the next day (today) when I woke up I sat down and started making this awesome drums and bass song which is pretty crazy if you ask me.

okay, enough story time. I gotta get back to work.

Flat Line, yep this is what I was talking about. Brace yourself for some good old (really dark) Calyx/Teebee style drum and bass.

I know it isn't even close to being finished but I am going to put out a LP and I think I am going to want the finished version of that one on there. So I'll start working on something else to put up here. Maybe something with a little more NG style.

I don't usually post pictures so here is a late Christmas present. If you have ever seen the show re-boot this is a Re-Boot character that my bro made in 3ds Max, he's crazy like that.

I don't know if I am going to be able to finish up bare for right now. I t is proving to be more difficult than I thought. I did submit When This World Falls . I am just going to work on what I can and hopefully I can make something I like.

Check out my killer music (In case you were wondering people have died listening to music.)

Suggestions:
--------------------

Songs with |V| before the title means I used Acid or Cubase, otherwise it's all FL 7.

|V| - Burn Out/Wind Up
|V| - Hands To The Wind
How It Spins
|V| - Pressure Release
Standing Tall after :37 is awesome.
|V| - Playin With Fire shut up! I know it sucks, but I still like it :(
Cause And Infect
Colliding Concepts

I know my old stuff might sound cheesy but seriously it is amazing. I'm thinking about going back to that kind of style like in some of my old stuff. Let me know what you think of my old stuff. and if you like it give me a review, enjoy!

I will probably have a song out by the end of the week. I am in the middle of two songs one is a Calyx and Teebee style Drum and Bass track and the other is something I can't even generalize, it is like orchestrated techno so we'll so how that plays out.

EDIT:
--------------

All my songs have a review! this is like a milestone for me. Cake and Hookers on me! Wait...what?!

EDIT:
--------------

As of right now I am working on 4 songs that come to mind, I don't even know what is going on though because my first semester just finished up and that goes with my exams.

SOooo, I am remaking my song BARE which I made at the end of 2007. Go ahead and give that a listen, and when I post the new version (which is sounding pretty crazy) you will hear all the changes and stuff I tried to remake. I am going to tell you know though that piano is going to be a BITCH to remake by ear but I am up for the challenge.

The other two I mentioned above and my fourth is a trance song, lol, it has been a while since I made one of those. I don't think I am going to post that one though. I am just joking around with some trance styles (it's so easy and fun, I just hope I don't get addicted.)

Expect some songs out by the end of next week. Maybe I will post some clips of the songs.

That's it have fun!

How about it?

I just finished up my song "Helion Prime" it took a while to make, one of the longest songs I have made to. There was 34 tracks in acid, but, everything was made in FL. I can't even tell you how many sounds and stuff were in there because I cant open up the first FL project there was so much in it. It took three FL projects to get all the sounds and drums beats I was looking for. everything in the song was made be me personally.

Here is the link:

Helion Prime

I see that my song The Sacrifice Made it into the best tracks ever, not sure if that should be there, there are people like Nubbin, Nav, Peptotrippin, and Rig who blow your minds with every track they make, but, I am happy as hell about that.

Check out the music and be a good boy because Santa will be here before you know it, along with all the Christmas carols (I heard one the other day so I think its time for my radio and any other device that can possibly pick up Christmas song to go into hibernation) LOL, don't be mad if I make a Christmas "Drummer Boy" DnB remix, can't imagine how messed up and awesome that would sound.
N_E waiz, |-|@\/3 /-\ 600D 1!

I can't make anything as of lately so it might be a few more days maybe even a week or two until I can get back into electronic music. That's just the way it is for me, I make electronic/techno music I can't write anything good on guitar and vice-versa. I'll get back to posting as soon as I am able though. See ya around

EDIT:
========

I posted My new song and here it is, I hope you like it.

Hands To The Wind

If your looking for a song to listen to listen to my song "Pressure Release" it was proly my first well made song.

=========

So it was pretty awesome to go on my computer for the first time in a week to find out that I made a "best of the week" song. I was surprised because the song wasn't doing to good the last time I checked on it then I come on today and it had like 3.5k views(shweet.) Anyways thanks for all the views, reviews, and votes that you guys sent me and hopefully I can make another song that you guys like.

here's the link to the sacrifice if anybody wants to hear for the first time or for there 10th time or whatever, I can't thank you guys enough

The Sacrifice

Oh and one more thing, I just noticed that there are some reviews on my old submissions from like a year ago. I can't stop laughing from the reviews I am getting. Honestly, the reviews I read make me laugh until I am shaking and about to pass out ( probably not healthy) I think I just need some sugar though so don't worry about me. So if you are going to go check out my old stuff put on an old pair of pants just in case you pee yourself because of the "cheesyness" of the songs.

okay, I just started a Drum and Bass song and I think it is pretty sweet. its starts of kind of calm but it gets nuts. So until I post it, which will probably be later today or tomorrow, I've posted another filler song. and here it is How It Spins
it's a fun little VG type song. Hopefully that will hold you until dinner time.

Thanks-a-lot, and have a good one till the next time we meet

Well I don't know if you can tell or not but my past two songs "What I've Become" and "Pressure Release" have been my first songs using Acid 6.0 and from now on I hope to use it on all of my songs, "Pressure Release" did really well and I am thinking about submitting "What I've Become" into a NG competition if I can finish it in time.

========
EDIT:

I wasn't finished with "What I've Become" so I took that off, it was just the demo after all. I will probably put that up later in the week when I get around to finishing it. In the meantime though you can listen to my other work in progress called "The Life We Loved" which is apparently a "terrible" song according to the score it received last time I posted it, however I did do some work to it so hopefully the human ear can listen to it.

Here is the link if you want to strain yourself the listen.

The Life We Loved

I've been listening to all of my old songs and I can't help but notice how bad they are! its pretty funny actually, because if you start at the beginning and got through my songs you can actually hear how I've progressed and my style changing. But not all of them are bad, there are still a few songs that aren't that bad, some of them are really cheesy to, like the Casio-core songs(what was I thinking.)
So that's all I wanted to say, I have a lack of inspiration as of right now so it me be a while till I submit something new.

========
EDIT:

I take it all back now, I lost my Acid, the trial period is up and I can't find a crack that works. So guess what, I have to use fruity again! So my songs will start to suck (in the mastering and composition column), I'm pretty pissed off right now so I think I am going to make a drum and bass song.

If anyone knows where I can get a good version of acid 7 let me know and I will eternally be in your debt, that's all I can really offer, thank you

I released what I think may be the final draft of my song " The Sacrifice" check it out if you like. I would say it is a trancestep song but the closest thing I can label it as on Newgrounds would be drum and bass since there is an amen break in the song, so check it out. Oh and just to hold myself to it, I am going to delete the drafts tomorrow.

The Sacrifice
