<p>ok im sat here with 3 new completed tunes ..i wasnt going to upload them as i stumbled upon the ,now silly ,notion of waiting to release them on dj shows ....but i realise i only made the last lot because im on holiday ...so im scrappingt that idea and im going back to releasing tunes when ive done them ....anyhoo i have these 3 tracks done and ive sat and listened to em constatnly and they sort of feel like the same vibe was in there for all 3 so im releasing them as a trilogy ..not quite sure of a name for the set ,,they all have names but i want to give all three a collcetive cloak so to speak ...so im calling the collective ..the fall ,rise and conquer sessions </p>

<p>ghost in the mist&nbsp; is probably one of my more obscure tunes ,,,i wanted it to sound old like its being played from vinyl so theres vinyl hiss and the odd jump .alos the lead i wanted it to be of a human vocal sounding but not your typical choir sound ,more a lone voice but with an eerie vibe to it ,,,and heres the weird bit ,,,the tunes length is 3 mins 33 seconds .333 miliseconds ,,,:D how cool yet spookily spooky at the same time&nbsp; </p>

<p>ok this is not my idea ..im sort of borrowing it ,,but it is a very cool idea anyhows ...here we go lets have a compo of how many songs you can write in a month &nbsp; ...i took part in a compo they have annually called 50/90 whereabouts you try to write 50 songs on 90 days ....what an awesome concept i thought and duly took part ...on that occasion i exuded some rather bulbous awesomenesslessness and subsequently finished my task in 60 days ...just a thought :D</p>

<p>my latest tune called android is full on drum and bass fest ...encorporating glitchy drum beats ,nasty basslines ,huge subsonic booms and crazy vox synths ...enjoy ..and dont forget ...play it loud !!! </p>

<p>this is me mucking about with ableton live 9 and the apc 40 controller ,,im also using the alesis qx49 keyboard controller to alter presets on the beat repeat function and ive also got effects on the a and b sends in live ...it was so much fun to do ,i hope you like it to </p><p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>sorry about this ,,i cant quite get this bit right ,,you upload a new tune and let it settle like a fine wine ,,,in my case i upload tunes like shaking and opening a bottle of the fizzy stuff ,,it just bubbles out in a chaotic state of sonicness ,,lol ,,:)</p>

<p>this new tune ive done ,i couldnt work out what style it was in so i sat there and came up with a thing whereby if you could translate your dreams and nightmares into some audio form what would it sound like ,,,anyways after i stopped laughing i thought hey not such a bad idea ,,and so my new track this fear is based on the kind of dreams i occasionally have ...probably down to too many curries ,,i dont know ,,you decide </p>

<p>odd title for a blog int it ..well it refers to the length of my new tune ..all clear ..i dont usually write tunes of this length ,,but im not hampered by the rule book of music ,if there is one ..so if a tune needs to be 14 minutes and 7 seconds long ,,then so be it ...pretty much like i dont stick to one genre ..i like to keep my listeners ,,all 2 of em .on there toes ...lol....if i feel like doing trance one day then maybe a slow ambient flowing soundscape the next ..it shal be done ..bottom line ..your never quite sure what im going to come up with next ,which i think i need when surrounded by class acts in this here corner of the universe we call the net </p>
