Hey Vince once again another great video! I noticed you don't seem to work with track stacks and was wondered if there was a reason?
@vincecomposer8 күн бұрын
It’s still a bit in flux tbh, but when I was making this video, I wanted to make use of the focus selected tracks feature in logic which falls apart if you use stacks. But I’m finding that they can be useful for stems exporting, so it depends if I intend on doing a separate mix stage!

I’m an unreserved Jacob Collier fan. By that I mean that I love his imagination wherever it goes. I’m not interested in saying, “Yes, but . . . “ about his music. Does that mean that I’m uncritical, that I suspend judgment when it comes to Jacob Collier? It kind of does and he’s a rare exception in that regard. I do it because I really don’t want to drift to the other bank of the River where he’s viewed with untrusting, deep reservation. I refuse to yes-but Jacob Collier. I’d much rather trust him. I don’t know if you view him the same way but you obviously trust the arc of ‘Stars.’ It shows in the way your lovely, loving arrangement carries the tune and the story along. Nicely done! Cheers.
@vincecomposer17 күн бұрын
@ thanks for the thoughtful comment! Yes, his music might not be to everybody’s taste, but I also share your trust, that it’s coming from a sincere place rather than showboating. He’s unusually transparent, which is definitely refreshing.

I really like the Clare Fischer sounding chords from ca 35:07 on 🙂 Can you enlighten us what kind of chords you played there or the music theory behind those progressions (other than "noodling" lol) ?
@vincecomposer28 күн бұрын
Hmm! Lots of 4 note ‘jazz’ chord voicings and voice leadings eg major sevenths in inversions with unusual bass note choices- so the more complex sounds are often the result of two tonal centres meeting. Definitely a lot of it is listening discovery and responding to what I’ve just played rather than pre thought out. Hope that helps!
@beatz0428 күн бұрын
@vincecomposer Thanks ! A intended dissonance definitely seems to play a role, so i'm gonna give this concept of 7maj + unusual bass note a try next time. Btw, i said "Clare Fischer" because your chord progressions (and the sound) reminded me a lot of the string arrangements he did for Prince over the years, also very prominent on his "The Family" side project ("Screams of Passion" comes to mind). If you haven't checked that one out (they only had one album, which contains the original version of "Nothing compares 2 U"), you definitely should, if only for those string arrangements. 🙂
@beatz0429 күн бұрын
When played with Divisimate as full chordal arrangements, i don't think they sound fake or synthetic. To my ears, it's a nice con sordino sound of a small string section. The expressiveness does add a lot to the realism, without those options i might agree to "fake", but the way it is, i really like the sound.
@vincecomposer28 күн бұрын
Yes, expressiveness can often trump realism too ! In retrospect, I might have been a little negative on this library as it definitely has its uses
