I Can’t Get You Outta My Head
I was digging through some old optical media when I stumbled across this gem that I had originally recorded way back in 2004. Over 20 years buried away… well, no longer. The folder I found didn’t have the separate stems for the instrumental, but it did contain the separate vocal tracks. So I’ve rebuilt the instrumental using my current tools and slipped the original vocals back in place. This marks the first TranSan song in the library with vocals! Hope you enjoy!
Orchestral Maneuvers in the Light
Another entry in the Instrument Category Series, this tune was a bit of a challenge when sticking to the strings category. I started off with an interesting pairing of an arpeggiator on the Yamaha MM6 triggering the classic “orchestra hit” voice. A bit unconventional, but it did the job of triggering a creative streak that culminated in this piece. Featuring the heavy metal drum kit from Monster Drum, more strings from the MM6, and a handful of MuLab sounds sandwiched in.
Quit Playin’ With My Heart Again
This song grew out of a melody idea that came to me on a brisk, early morning walk. Made with sounds from Monster Drum, Analog Lab V, Audiolatry Grand Piano, and a smattering of sounds from MuLab.
Whips Chains and Leatherface
A creepy new addition to the Halloween Playlist, made with Monster Drums Hellboy Cube pack, Analog Lab V, Crystal Soft Synth, and a smattering of patches from within the MuLab DAW.
Falling Into Autumn
Inspired by the season at the time of writing, as well as by some free loops available from Cymatics.fm, along with some MuLab, Analog Lab V, Vital and Monster Drums sandwiched in. Watch this song being made with highlights from the TranSan Labs live stream:
Telecommunication Breakdown
Built using a collection of samples from Looperman.com with a smattering of MuLab, Surge XT and Monster Drums instruments sandwiched in. Watch this song being made with highlights from the TranSan Labs live stream:
Discobobulate
Made with Love-Fi 3 Lite, LANDR Chromatic, SINE Player, Monster Drums, OB-Xd and a smattering of MuLab instruments.
The Lost Prince
Made with layers of hardware synths including Yamaha YPT-320, Yamama MM6, Yamaha TG-33 and Roland D-5, as well as the VSTs Monster Drums, Vital and Synthmaster Player, along with a smattering of MuTools synths.
Dah’ren Sunrise
Another experiment in slaving a collection of VST instruments to a malfunctioning Korg i3 Workstation (1993). This time, I capture a pop rock style preset. This old i3 doesn’t produce sound anymore, so by capturing the multiple MIDI channels of a preset style pattern, I’m able to breath new life into it by assigning those channels to a sandwich of VSTs.
