Imagination

Let your mind wonder during this dark ambient song. Just don't have any nightmares because of the pounding drums and eerie pads and lead.

One of the things I really love about BiaB is that you can go into it with one style in your mind and come out with something completely different. That happened with this one. Plus I like to showcase how versatile BiaB is.

BiaB style = Ambiention - Electronic
Tempo = 50

Except where noted all sounds are from SynthMaster 2.
Also not that all BiaB tracks are verbatim, i.e. I didn't change a thing!

Bass = BAS-Smoothy Moogy 1
Drums = Kontakt - Knocks of Doom 1
Piano = Pad 80's Mystery Ark
Guitar - Kontakt - Angelic Zither
Strings - AT Message from Mars

Via my MIDI keyboard controller I am playing
1-the lead - LD Sine Screamer BT
2-Cymbals - Kontakt - Suspended Cymbals


Have you ever noticed there are no lines to a bathroom at a water park?

Mario, another winner. My mind was totally relaxed after listening. This would make some amazing music for a sci-fi movie.

Mario ...

Yep, ambient and dark! Sounds a little like the soundtrack to an 80s "hack-em up" movie with a more contemporary approach. You are so dang good a pulling off these "off the wall" tunes. You have a great imagination and great way with using the more obscured RTs, complimented with your original contributions. Original and well-done! Take a bow!!!!

Thanx so much Alan. Note that there were no RTs used in this song. It is all MIDI.

Gentle and dark yes. I'm still waiting to hear from that guitar you cradle in the picture.

All MIDI? That would explain it, then. crazy

Kidding aside, that was certainly unexpected - even when I was prepared for unexpected.

Cool! smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi Mario,

mysterious and, yes, a bit eery - but very creative and I do like your cineastic approach anyway. This one really leaves lots of room for any kind of imagination - wonderful job.

I absolutely agree on your remarks on the journey into the unexpected BIAB sometimes takes us - It's still an absolutely amazing, yet challenging software - I wouldn't know howto spend my days without it's possibilities.

Take care,

Stefan

Thanx so much Stefan for those very kind comments. Yes, BiaB has taken me down many different roads and I'm glad that it did.

note to anybody who hasn't listened yet: listen through headphones!

Mario, apparently we have another thing in common: an affinity for the ambient styles! But you are a lot better than I will ever be at turning them into a full-blown production. I might get a groove going, but then I don't know how to develop it into a final product. Good job! I envy your vision!

Hi Mario
Very nicely done. My imagination initially took me into outer space (I do enjoy a bit of sci-fi) but then I thought this would also be a great soundtrack to a subterranean journey.
Regards,
Leon

Hi Mario,

This could be the music I heard inside my head when watching the UFO video's that Pentagon officially released last year...

I love your creativity and your music!

Hi Pat, thanx for these very nice comments. Thanx for mentioning the headphone comment as this piece I made for headphones.

I'm sure that if you really tried you could make some very nice ambient music.
