DigMe - Zeked (laid-back electronic)

I created the main cello sample and the glockenspiel samples for this using Creative's Vienna Soundfont Studio. I had one pad with the 4 chord cello sample and 4 pads each with a single glockenspiel note or chord. The rest of the pads were rhythm/drums, piano, the sort of subtle ghostly high-pitched drone and the bleep.

I used the pitch editor a LOT for this one. I had three pads with the single C# piano note from one of the stock kits. I used those to create chords using pitch editor. Also I used the single bleep sound to create the little recurring melody that you first hear at the break early in the song.

I originally wanted the cellos to sound more natural. The way they ended up though they almost have a mellotronish quality that I like.

Hope you enjoy it and please leave comments here.

    Dude you get a lot out of the iPhone, no doubt. Zeked is your best tune by far. I dig the pitch editor stuff, nice melodies.

    Good track, excellent qualities.

  • Avevo avuto una serie di giornate noiose a Firenze e pensavo di mollare del tutto l’idea dei giochi online perché perdevo più che altro. Poi, girando sul web, mi sono ritrovato su spino gambino. Ho deciso di riprovare e, con mia sorpresa, ho avuto un paio di colpi di fortuna che mi hanno fatto recuperare e anche guadagnare qualcosa. Più che la vincita, mi ha colpito la sensazione di riscatto, come se avessi ribaltato la situazione. È stata un’esperienza che non dimentico facilmente.
