Bastian Group: Members Posts: 12 Joined: June 2003 Posted: Sep. 29 2005, 10:43 I wonder what are favourite tracks from new album for all people here. For me the best are: "Angelique" and "My father". If only there were real vocalists... -------------- Bastian -==Take a walk until the next dawn ==- -== In the winter, rain and storms  ==- Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Sep. 30 2005, 11:06 I love them all. I'm really fond of Mike's "chillout" playing even if I'm probably the only one in the whole board. My favs right now (subject to change within 5 minutes!! ) are "Angelique" and "Our Father", and, as a pianist, I love the pure piano mood of "Sunset", although that piano sound is horrible!! -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

DarkenedEdo Group: Musicians Posts: 124 Joined: May 2003 Posted: Sep. 30 2005, 12:15 Angelique and Our Father. But i'm waiting for the revenge of Resolution. With the time it will be the third. The album should be a single with these songs: Anglique Blackbird The Gate (with real vocals of course, this version seems to be a demo) Closer Our father Rocky (played on a real Steinway) Sunset Resolution Nightshade +Bonus track First Steps et voilà, 9 songs + a bonus track. Not TSODE or Tr3s Lunas, but something nice waiting for the long and real album. 16 songs, these 16 songs, are too much.

Martin S Group: Members Posts: 5 Joined: May 2005 Posted: Oct. 01 2005, 15:18 First Steps. I loved Tres Lunas and I love the theme from Maestro soundtrack; when they are both mixed together, the result is really excellent. Back to top

Philippe Tavares Group: Members Posts: 1613 Joined: Feb. 2005 Posted: Oct. 04 2005, 21:11 Hi from France ...i love all of this new album but the piano on Rocky remembers me The Rio Grande intro ..What do you think about this ?? And i think also... listen to the bass guitar all alone of Angelique.umx with U-mix... That remembers me the bass guitar on Tubular Bells finale or on Hergest Ridge...Yes ? No ?     Back to top

Ugo Group: Members Posts: 5495 Joined: April 2000 Posted: Oct. 07 2005, 09:59 I'm getting more and more into Sunset. It's IMHO one of the best melodies of the whole L&S work. -------------- Ugo C. - a devoted Amarokian Back to top

No ?     Yeah the bass guitar melody on Angelique reminds me of Hergest Ridge, especially when on U-Myx if you single out the Bass line.  I'm working on my remixes and singling out the bass line on Angelique is one of my ideas.

Holger Group: Members Posts: 1506 Joined: Feb. 2003 Posted: Oct. 08 2005, 06:17 Most definitely First Steps for me. Edit: The Gate is a good second. Back to top

Holger Group: Members Posts: 1506 Joined: Feb. 2003 Posted: Oct. 08 2005, 06:20 Quote (DarkenedEdo @ Sep. 30 2005, 18:15) The Gate (with real vocals of course, this version seems to be a demo) The Vocaloids are the whole point of this track. Yes, it's a demo. A Vocaloid demo made by a professional musician. It's not so much an end in itself, it points towards things to come. It's visionary in that it's likely the first of its kind. I'm not necessarily saying it's perfect musically, but I like it. Back to top

Holger Group: Members Posts: 1506 Joined: Feb. 2003 Posted: Oct. 08 2005, 07:18 Another thing. I only really got this now after another listening. Notice the point where the acoustic guitar and piano come in? No vocaloids at the beginning, and then they come back in and sing with the guitar and piano? As if this piece was about future and past and how they can intertwine to form the present. Back to top

Close your eyes, listen to that tune - and everything becomes a little easier.... That's "chill out" for me in its best way.   -------------- "...but every while I would remember..." Back to top
