Axis Mundi - The Last Contact (Preview)

Axis Mundi - The Last Contact (Preview)

Here's a preview of a completed Spacesynth song I made (the 3rd redo of "Contact"). Most of the melodies were played on real 80s synths, such as the Roland JX-10 synth, Roland HS-60 and Yamaha DX-7. The DX7 provided the leads, the HS-60 for bass & background arpeggios & JX-10 for stabs & pads.

This is my take on Spacesynth & how I like it. Pounding Hi-NRG beats, pulsing bass & long uplifting/epic demoscene style melodies. It's great for exercise... my mom always dances around the house whenever I'm working on it. ehehehheh!

what did you use for the drums? samples? thanks!

[stkthree03]

@teletubby999 Roland R-5 drum machine (bass drum), Simmons Drum Machine (Synth Toms), TR-808 samples (clap, panned hihats, rimshot, cowbell), LinnDrum (centre hihat, claps, rimshot 2) and some samples from the Roland System 100 (the noise-snare is called "snare_long3.wav"). The TR808 claps were combined w/ the noise-snare in the same channel for a fuller and thicker sound.

[teletubby999]

man i love the sound on lush pads :)

[GanEdenAustralia]

I also have the DX7 II FD. :) Great track. Love a copy as well?

[ANDRES77]

AWESOME!

I really like this track, very expressive, very warm, hard drums, interesting bassline, good sound for all the lines, nice chords, maybe could be a little bit more expressive with some changes in the drums, another riff in the 3rd quarter part to get a better "climax', but...that's just my opinion, actually the track is so great!.

Hey, if you haven't sold the JX-10, I strongly recommend you not to do it even if the VIRUS is the cause of it.

CONGRATULATIONS!

Great stuff!

@maccagrabme I'm moving towards more of a trance-oriented sound, so I just want to sell it so I can get an Access Virus A... something that's a bit easier to use and still has a good sound like the JX-10. Plus it's taking up a lot of space...
