I recently acquired a copy of Reason, a highly powerful music interface program that among many other things has amazing samples and patches for MIDI-based music. I have barely scratched the surface of the program but it cleanly syncs with Ableton Live the other highly powerful music creation program I use (via ReWire). After many false starts and some assistance today, this is my first attempt at using Live with Reason in a real song-creation setting.
Anyway, I have been toying with minimal chord progressions lately and after finding a really great Leslie Organ sound and beefing it up with some feedback sounds I thought it would make a great backbone for this song. The song is pretty minimal, doesn’t go anywhere, but it does let me sort of learn the tools and play with the new soundscapes that I have at my disposal. Not sure where to go with this but here it is anyway.

whoa! .. that organs got some ballz to it.. I like it.. sounds like the winning hit at the end of a baseball game where the lights explode one by one and the hero runs the bags on his fake legs that he built from the metal of his fathers crashed wwII airplane fuselage..
but seriously though.. this is great.. I love the simplicity. oh and the organ sound is fantastic.
Yeah I really like this organ sound. I think I’d like to shave off about 3minutes from this song but certainly I will continue to develop for the Sept EP… Gotta finish the August one this week first.
I remixed this on the road to Colorado. Just got back. Will post tomorrow.
