Finally managed to upload the final two tracks of that album, which I'd say were the best of this bunch:http://mightysandyheathtransmitters.bandcamp.com/track/these-once-were-menhttp://mightysandyheathtransmitters.bandcamp.com/track/until-i-die-2

thanks guys. one more - this track is one of the oldest ones that made it on the album (with some touching up), but people seem to be responding to it:

dear ilx, help us produce this track
http://soundcloud.com/constantlightduo/piano-bass
a quick idea that turned out better than expected but unsure where to take it from here. first thought is some sort of echoey spoken part but i'd rather it not end up sounding like a straight hood ripoff. any thoughts?
― do you know sixty (electricsound), Thursday, 2 September 2010 10:48 (thirteen years ago) link
sounds really nice. i would add a heavy dilla-style beat, but you know me (actually i would love to sample this).
― the parking garage has more facebook followers than my band (Jordan), Thursday, 2 September 2010 16:15 (thirteen years ago) link
i do think you could add some subtle percussion, like fast clicky stuff in the background or a reverbed-out tambourine on the 4.
do the bass notes hit on the upbeat or the downbeat?
― the parking garage has more facebook followers than my band (Jordan), Thursday, 2 September 2010 16:16 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah, I was thinking kind of flickery percussive noises. But that might be something to avoid if you want to not get Post-Rock/IDM crossover comparisons.
― cymose corymb (Karen D. Tregaskin), Thursday, 2 September 2010 16:19 (thirteen years ago) link
good feedback guys. i like the idea of some spidery percussion but the biggest problem is that no click track was used at all, so the timing is almost certainly all over the place - so it couldn't really be a 'beat' per se. the sensible thing to do would be to re-record it but that's kinda against the spirit of what we do..
a tambourine that follows the bass could probably work though, will give it a try. the bass is on 1 & 4 so kinda both the up and downbeats i guess?
also feel free to sample if you desire!
― do you know sixty (electricsound), Friday, 3 September 2010 01:23 (thirteen years ago) link
Lazy bad idea: drop it into Ableton and warp it
More complicated idea that will keep the natural live groove: edit it in something which allows you to visualise the wave forms so you can tell where the beat falls naturally, and drop in samples that align

Tune is playing on a loop in my mind right now, so it's good. Are you planning on adding vocals later?
― Les centimètres énigmatiques (snoball), Tuesday, 7 September 2010 22:31 (thirteen years ago) link
How about adding muted guitar chords to double the keyboard?
― Les centimètres énigmatiques (snoball), Tuesday, 7 September 2010 22:33 (thirteen years ago) link
thansk snoball - I would like to add vocals and a middle-eight for variation, but I'm struggling to think up some melody lines. The stupid horn-section is its own worst enemy in that it's all-encompassingly catchy (like you said, it sticks in my head all day).
