DS123: 3 sharp keys


I've listened to this live recording I made on Sunday morning a few times now and am really pleased with it. I decided this week to air it instead of performing and recording the set during the show. Here's why I like it - I tried to concentrate on the phrase timings and key change undulations that add to the feeling of flow and progression. It is in a key signature range of 3 to 5 sharps with single +/- # note step changes (C#m, G#m and F#m).

Another strange but quite interesting feature is that for the crescendo of the mix at about 26+ mins in, the key goes up a fifth to G#m (5 sharps!) (for Drum Origins - Hypercomplex, who's natural key is Gm without realtime time-stretching))

Anyway, technical stuff aside, it seems to work for me...hope you enjoy too :)

Mix DS197

I sift through *a lot* of music to find tracks worthy of bringing to you on this podcast so when I discover artists of quality I had previously overlooked I kick myself but then get a real buzz gorging on their back catalogues. Featured this time and due a special shout out are cream of the crop titles from Rafau Etamski hailing from Poland and Melinki from here in the UK. Also inspired from trying Forza Horizon 5, big up to another new discovery for me, brazilian Urbandawn for "Fly Away".
