Hey Red, just curious friend. Where do you get your chord voicings from? Would you ever mess with Jazz Harmony? Maybe a little Bill Evans type stuff? Love your work dude, I live for your OP videos :P

I mess around until it sounds right? I really wish I knew proper chord voicings, especially jazz stuff, but as it is my music theory is a little stunted.

Stunted or not some of the harmonies you use sound pretty hip, it's nice to hear stuff like that in electronic music :) If you ever wanna learn Jazz stuff I'd be totally down to help you do it, (I'm Jazz piano major at uni)

You always make me think that this is easy.

a lot of Beethoven and Mozart's work was in B flat, and a few years ago NASA were able to measure the frequency of a black hole 250 million light years away in the Persues cluster that was emitting a B flat 57 octaves below middle C. there is some theory that there is a connection and that the universe as a whole likes to resonate in B flat

www.scientificamerican.com/article/strange-but-true-black-holes-sing and it wasn't a collection of frequencies with harmonic overtones, just a straight B flat. I think I liked it cos I thought "the universe resonates in B flat" would be an awesome title for a song/album. plus i'm a closet cosmology nerd in fact if you believe in string theory all matter (and certain types of energy) in the universe is essentially a collection of vibrations

always when playing things back through my speakers in B flat, my desk would resonate and shake and make the bass extremely loud... only with B flat, that is. And I've tried that shit with other speakers and on other desks. I don't know about the universe resonating in B flat, but my downstairs neighbors' heads definitely do

Your videos make me happy. Thanks for making my Monday better.

Getting obsessed with these videos.... I'm thinking about trying the same thing except with my MPC Live. I have a question though, do you record the whole session into Ableton and with video and than just trim the fat off? Don't mean to bite your style too hard, it'll be a little different with some live guitar, etc, I'm just super surprised by what you do and inspired, my channel is dedicated to Ukulele education and I think my learners would get a kick out of a blend of some of these ideas.

Love this one! Great drum pattern. I have to ask, how much of these songs are in your head or on paper before you start recording?

@RedMeansRecording

7 жыл бұрын

Most of them, not at all. I sit down, hit keys, browse sounds, and then see what starts to take hold. Then it's all about playing on those themes. For the next OP-1 video I practiced during the week because I wanted to figure out some chord progressions that were beyond my current skill, but mostly it's all just on the fly.
