Wind Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 My first big production job, Reached for an echory "The Cure", "Chroma Key", "Blackfield" sounds. so fans of "Porcupine Tree" "The Cure" "Chroma Key" "Blackfield" "Pinkfloyd" "VNV Nation" and just a fan of trippy ass music that is in short pop song structures. Additional synthesizers added by myself. 01 - 01 Different Love 02 - 02 Losing Days 03 - 04 January Song (I added the most to this song / had the most influence for sure, I made it one of my own I bet you can tell what is mine haha :) ) 04 - 05 What's Wrong (Early NiN influence <3 I love that aspect. more curey guitar. I am a fan of echo and delay at the same time, sounds like its sparkling) http://galexiaband.com/2008/Albion%20-%20EP.rar give me a 1-10 on the production work. I say... 8/10, was too busy working on my own music. let me know. Also to be featured as a bonus track on their upcoming CD I remixed Liu Cain's pop hit in germany (lead singer on Galexia's Asfixia) its like a 3 minute simple pop tune, with 3/4ths the lyrics I cut out hahaha. I also growl during the song in this version, re recorded the bass and drums completely destroying theirs, and I distorted a synth to sound like distorted guitar (the main pop hook line). Made a very interesting near 6 minute version. http://galexiaband.com/2008/Liu%20Caine%20...ia%20Remix).mp3 Link to comment

Cip Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Alright man well first off I'm very disappointed in you. The 02, 04, 05 tracks had NO ID3 tags!!! So it took me quite a bit of searching through to find the files. also is there a 3rd song that I didnt extract or is it missing? On to the real stuff, I thought overall the sound and atmospheric lay out was very fitting to the style. I dig the added synths, they made the sound more full, filling in the gaps. It wasn't over done, it was real, and organic feeling, which I like alot. As for the band I thought the songs were really solid. I thought they ironically have a real pop appeal simply due to the diversity of their sound. Track 02 reminded me instrumentally A LOT like mellon collie pumpkins. Anyhow overall I thought the four songs had some really great highlights and depth, as the production once again, was extremely suitable to their sound. I think in this instance "less was more". anyhow 8.5/10 balls rocked. by the way, you've officially made it to my moms fridge. She posted the newspaper article of GALEXIA Link to comment
Wind Posted October 18, 2008 Author Share Posted October 18, 2008 haha thats awesome! i feel proud to be on your moms fridge dude! Link to comment
Cip Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 yeah. I've listened to all the songs more now, and I think they definitely grow on you the more you listen. The stuff is really great dude, you did a really commendable job emphasizing what needed emphasis. Link to comment
Wind Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 thanks broseph, I have an idea to place 'The Twisted Mile at the end of the galexia CD (the maze) after like 5 minutes of silence. Link to comment
Cip Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 thanks broseph, I have an idea to place 'The Twisted Mile at the end of the galexia CD (the maze) after like 5 minutes of silence. oh wow, that'd be crazy amazing actually, if you want to make the song more appropriate and fitting for whatever idea you have I'd have no problem rerecording the song to benefit your visions.

Silver Cyclone Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 WTF TROLL? Ken who the fuck is this guy. I thought he was one of your friends being their usual retarded selves. But after a little looking around he seems to be some random German dude. Link to comment
Wind Posted November 21, 2008 Author Share Posted November 21, 2008 Looked like one of the actual members of Albion. Which confuses the fuck out of me. I'll have to get in touch with Martyna Halas (who sings on my CD's) who is the new singer for Albion. Perhaps its the old singer angry? lol. Link to comment
Silver Cyclone Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I searched everywhere not only was I unable to find this band called albion so I wouldn;t know if he was a past member. But yeah like I said he just seemed to be some random german dude. Link to comment
danielzklein Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I am Daniel Klein, Martyna Halas's boyfriend. I also wrote an e-mail to Ken personally about this, so he should have been able to connect the dots. Martyna and the former Albion guys, who are now her band mates in Liu Cain, were frankly too pissed off last night to write anything, so they asked me to do it on their behalf. I should have clarified that. Link to comment

John Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 So what exactly was your job in this? Did you produce like help with instrumentation and arranging or did you do the engineering work? Link to comment
