my melancholy blue - electro remix

Here's one for the 30th anniversary of New Of The World. It's Freddie at the piano slowly moving around the rings of saturn.

PERFECTION

100 out of a possible 10

Weird...but original and it sounds good ! So thanks a lot for sharing this :)

It just seems the "drums" sounds a little bit weak : Would it be possible to remove them from the mix ?

Thank U, keep up the good work...

This is great!

interesting and quirky.....
i like

good one

Well, it's certainly weird! Technically, very well done, and undeniably original. Do I like it? Not sure yet. Might take a few more listens, but well done, and thanks for giving this to us. :)

Well, the same as Lord Fickle, weird, original, but I'm not really sure if I like it.

Thanks :)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are those drums generated from an old SID-tune generator, or are they just cleverly chopped-up actual drums?

I don't want to ruin the magic for everyone, but I'm assuming, given your other work, that the instrumentation is you on the keyboards, but layered directly on top of the spooky warped noises that audio programs make when they try to make acapellas?

thanks for all the feedback everyone, great to see all the big names here.

ern, i did this a while back using ACID (the software, not the narcotic though maybe..) i didn't use the SID drums but just fruity loops drum sequencer. the notes were imported as midi and stretched to fit the places in the song where they belong.

the idea originally was to create a sound freddie might make while playing some futuristic keyboard, floating around the universe.

Ha!
Now i know what this reminds me of!!

Does any of you recall the soundtrack for 'Clockwork Orange'??

Not my thing, but technically, nicely done. Though, not sure about the radio-voice Freddie.

Adam.

what about the link? doesn't work with me.

There are no keyboards floating around the universe.  At least, none that I have seen.

You speak with such authority. So you have been everywhere in the universe then?
