Title: Hotchpotch Dance
Post by: SoundKlops on April 12, 2008, 02:18:32 PM
On my PC are now about 60 - 70 GB of sound samples. So I just shake my PC. The result was the Hitchhotch Dance. Please take this song not too serious.

Have fun
Andreas

Actually this is a very nice mix. It has many breaks, many variations, nice vocals samples and a nice dance groove. Not bad at all.

This is working for me. I realy like the last third of the song. The guitar sound doesn't realy fit in (my feeling).  I would even take this song with me on a dance floor, but in this case I would first get rid of the last 12 seconds  ;)

Very well done!

Moon

P.S.: nice pic !

Ok, cool !
We make music for fun, so sometimes it's less serious... I'm fine with that  ;)
It's enjoyable; and this Hotchpotch Dance works for me. More interesting than many others 'serious' dance production.
The arabic-like plucked-strings solo made me laugh: well done
nice leads to follow
The ending is a surprise !  ;D

Thumbs up !

Cheers

Thank you for your comments. I love to mix things that do not belong together. Maybe next week I send a similar number. The other song is a bit faster and I have Oriental sounds with Cha Cha, Techno and Pop mixed together. :o

@Moon
I think the best in the song is the guitar.  :D

@Laguna Rissing
Sometimes, I am also a surprise. ;)

Agree with everyone else here. Strongly reminds me of some of the stuff produced when synths were very new and experimental.

P.S.

Great little snatch at the end :)

It’s already been said but I’ll say it again, great song!

This really good, a great blend of instruments and sounds.

Very interesting ending!

Loved it.  :;

Thank you for your kind comments.

I hope you also know that me those comments spur even more strange things to do.

Cheers

Hi Thom,

 :o :o :o

I ask google what snatch means in the U.S. and translate the result in "normaly" English. It's something like ........... Such a thing would not have in my song. Maybe I cut the end of song.

Oh dear ???

In 'real' English it simply means something short, unexpected, quickly taken (possibly a little furtive).

      
Compact Oxford English Dictionary

snatch

  • verb 1 seize quickly and deftly. 2 informal steal or kidnap by seizing suddenly. 3 quickly take when the chance presents itself: snatching a few hours’ sleep.

  • noun 1 an act of snatching. 2 a fragment of music or talk. 3 Weightlifting the rapid raising of a weight from the floor to above the head in one movement.

Will & Andreas,

I certainly did not intend to cause such a stir,as I was only joking...seemed harmless enough at the time. :-\

I was referring to the slang or "street" term of the word and of course, the other meaning-or should I say,the literal meaning in the American language is to grab in a swift manner-an object,for instance(which is right on par with Will's explanation).

Andreas-no need to cut your song friend,I'm sorry for the misunderstanding...it's my inappropriate sense of humor at play,is all....oops! :-[
