Short: 'Come My Way' Final XM version by AiRoN
Author: aronchce@sp.zrz.tu-berlin.de
Uploader: aronchce@sp.zrz.tu-berlin.de
Type: mods/airon
This piece was started on the Amiga in summer last year and
it the Amiga version that is featured on the 'BLT' music disk by
Epinicion.I hope to have imporved on it enough to warrant this
release but in any case I'm as proud of this song as of any I've
composed.
My intention was to compose a moving song.I started out by
recreating the drum track from 'Stranger in Moscow' and not wanting
to 'copy' totally , I rearranged the drums to the pattern that you'll
hear at the beginning. The following drum tracks were created right
after that. Then the chord progressions followed along with the bass.
I'd like to mention the great chords by Jogeir Liljedahl that I used
for this ,as I didn't have a synth at that time.The XM version features
the addiotional use of single voice built chords that vary a bit from
the single sample chords.
The melody. Well I must say I didn't like it at first.
If you don't like 'em , listen to it a bit.It'll grow on you.
The Protracker has a great sample editor(gazzillion times better than
Fasttracker2.04) featuring a 'Boost' function that I aplied to the
drums. The drums never use more than two voices but I was too
caught up in improving the other parts to work on this too much.
And besides, I'm used to working with only a voice or two and you'll
see this in the patterns where I use samples that sometimes are
sequence mixed to give a smooth feel with only one voice.
Now for some of the sample creds though you'll find them in the
module too.
The drums were sampled from Michael Jackson's 'Stranger in Moscow'
of the History album with my Technosound sampler on the Amiga.
Samples 9,20 and 21 were directly sampled from my Roland JV-1080
with a SB16 and Fasttracker2.04(borrowed a PC in those days:).
(Mondo Bass,Vocchoir&Whaterrhodes)
The single sample chords were taken from material by Jogeir Liljedahl.
He's one of our many four voice Amiga masters :))
Heatbeats 'Space Love' provided me with the chorus leads.I think they
fit quite nicely.I can't forget that interview in RAW7(or6).
The vocal choir(backing in the quiet part) came from a song by some
Radical Rythem guy. I think Toxic Trancer made that one.Great sample.
The panflute. Well, I thought I shoulda replaced with a different sample
but as I was unable to find a good replacement, so I left it in there.
Taken from a Jogeir Liljedahl song.I think I've had that sample
in my leads collection for a while(4 years?).
That about wraps it up for the creds wouldn't you say ?
Somehow you empiric gits are right but I wouldn't put an emphasis
on providing sample creds all the way.
Now for some dedications and greets.
Juice , Pirat , FBY and all the other guys at Phase Distortion.
Skyphos , Sharon , Andy , Grond , Nero , Stone and all the
guys I haven`t met yet of the Matrix crew.
Ms.Saigon - :) Sadly I won't be on the IRC anymore it seems.
and I'm married too you know . Hehe. Just joking?
Basehead - Personally I like your style(yes there is one:) more than
Andys. But as I love music in general you score just as
high as anyone with groove up his ass and ability to
send shakes into my soul.
Necros - Great instruments on the Party5 tune but I thought the
amount of material was nothing short of scandalous.
My favoroute tune of yours is light.s3m 'cause it playes
funny(bass wave) on my old Amiga S3M player.I don't like
the correct version as much 8D.
Axel - Thanks for that PC. The tune was finished on a 386DX/40,
proving that a GUS hardly needs processor power.
Redd Ka - Very cool tunes. Good grooves that I find hard to locate
in the PC scene :). OctaMED is another ruling force.
Coming to the PC soon (OctaMED Studio).
Don't ya wanna cry.
*BIG EXHALE* That's all for now folks.
Ripping: I absolutly do not want you to ripp these samples for use
in your own songs unless you realy want to and gimme some
credit if you use the drums or samples 9,20,21 :).
In other words , be my guest.
Use without crediting will be punished by severe
behaviour modification therapy provided by our
trusted folks at the Blazemonger Customer Service
department(read comp.sys.amiga.advocacy or get
the Dan Barret text files from AMinet:)

routines we'll put up a good fight at the Assembly96 >:). - AiRoN
