Eve and I

Hey all :)

here’s something I’ve been wanting to put together for a while. I did start a while back but my poor old puter was choking on it’s own lack of memory along with it’s antiquated processor, but. Now I have a more powerful machine so I can get a number of cool special effects going on in one scene. Hence the completion of this video.

So, what’s this Eve and I about?!? Who is Eve anyway? Well, eveonline is a mmorpg, (massive multiplayer online role playing game). That takes place in the Eve Universe, called New Eden. By using some screen capture software, my camcorder and me, I’ve made this short film.

Here are some stills…

The music, alas is not my composition. That, came bundled with the video editing program. Maybe I could have done my own music, but. The scene changes were done accompanying this track, “Dreamer”, and I felt that it worked great just as it was. So if it aint broke don’t fix it, right? Anyway, I hopes ya likes it. Leave me your comments, thumbs up, or whatever you can click on.

Many thanks for your time, for reading, for watching and for your support for all of my entries in this here blog.

Tabla Kadabra

Hi all, here’s my latest. I looked up some Indian scales, then some Arabic scales and then some Persian scales. This fits more into Persian than the other two, by my ear. Once again I’ve used Garritan World Instruments for this, which is used by the pro’s, such as U2, INXS and Celine Dion.

Tabla (Percussion) Bansuri (Flute) and Tambura (Drone). The violin and pads are from Halion Symphonic Orchestra. Hope ya likes it.

Loves Embrace Cello Version

Hi all :o )

Here I’m using a Cello patch from Halion Symphonic Orchestra. I haven’t added any articulations after recording, it is “the way I played it.” I wrote this in 2008, I wasn’t into making videos that much at that time and my slow machine wasn’t capable of such effects. The know how was also a factor, and so was my budget. So, here’s this “in the studio” Cello thang. Many thanks for watching and for commenting, sharing etc etc.

Medley Mashup Mix

This one isn’t just about moi. It’s very much about the fine people that bring my basslines and sometimes lyrics to life. So I wanted to make a little video that included them. Yes, there is some solo stuff in there, but it starts off with some collaborations, credits on who is doing what and where else to find it on the worldy wide webles. Dont forget to look out for the smiler…hehe, and if you’d care to make a comment or two here, on yotube or else where then I warmly invite you to do so. Thank you!! :)

The Swans of The River Great Ouse

Hi all :)

hopes ya doing ok. I went out and about with my camcorder the other day and shot this film, puting one of my compositions to the visuals. I’m pretty pleased with the end result. I used a Panasonic V10 camera,  magix movie edit pro mx and some imagination….hehe. Swans are graceful creatures and I’ve always thought “Loves Embrace” which I wrote back in 2008 has a graceful ambience. So now I’ve been able to bring the visuals and the audio together. Hope ya like it.

Bye for now people :)

Truth, Consciousness and Bass

Hey all :)

three days until the Olympics opening ceremony and the sun has been shining for more than two days in a row in the UK. How strange is that? Another strange occurrence is taking a walk on a tropical beach and not having to shake the sand out of your footwear, or wash the sand from between your toes.

Well, it’s not a strange occurrence if its a virtual beach is it…haha. I wrote this track some years back and now with the magic of my magix video program I can put some visuals to it. W00t.

Hope ya likes it, and thanks very much for listening.

Europica Trance Promo Two

Hi all :)

I think I might do one more, three is a good number to show a bit of variety, but for now this is promo number two for the Trance genre I dabble in. I used the same pictures as the first one, but enhanced them better to full screen mode. There’s also a moving background of an early evening sky, summery clouds and sparkling stars. I think it looks pretty cool and is an improvement on the first one I did.

The tune is called “Smilerz” and someone once commented on how unusual the melody was. They meant that in a good way cos they had it on a loop….hehe. Anyway, here it is. Hope you like it. Many thanks for watching :)
