[@madman1366]

Michael Kamen had a deep love of hard rock/heavy metal music. He said it was the one form of modern music that most closely related to classical music. A very high compliment from the man who literally wrote the book. Songs like this illustrate that point quite nicely. 👍

[@jamieturton666]

Michael Kamen is a legend and was absolutely correct in his statement. I started with classical music at a young age and moved to rock and metal as it seemed like the most natural progression… being at a point where I can enjoy melding the two brings me a lot of joy. Thank you for listening and thank you for your comment! I hope you have a wonderful Christmas! 🖤

[@manmythmothman]

I adore Sleep Token and these are just fucking incredible, honestly. Top tier work. I'd be intrigued to hear what you could do with another sleepy band, if you will, that band being While She Sleeps. Know Your Worth or Nervous maybe, In Another Now (my personal favourite). There's some incredible music in their discography that I think could be really interesting. Keep up the good work, I look forward to seeing what you do next!

[@jamieturton666]

I’m glad you’re enjoying these works! 🖤 I know of While She Sleeps but I’ve not had the time to delve into their music so I think I will now based on your suggestion. I’ll put one of them on the list for you, possibly two if I can’t make up my mind on one 😅

[@neilthompson2111]

I had Michael Kamen in my mind when my wife recommended to me to listen to these. I can’t remember the exact quote from Michael… his point was about how tricky it is to arrange instruments around the music (in the metal context). Very tasteful! Sounds incredible, the mix still breaths!

[@jamieturton666]

Hi Neil! Michael is absolutely correct in saying that 😅 heavier music tends to have a lot less spare eq space to insert additional instruments for clarity within a mix. My mixes still need work but I’m learning slowly! I’m glad you enjoyed this one and I really appreciate the comment!

[@NoNoNoNoYoureWrong]

Great work on these; what are your goto libraries? It's always cool to learn about what people like, especially when they do more unique things, like make it a mission to do arrangements for metal tunes, you've built a pretty great catalog!

[@jamieturton666]

Hi NoNoNoNo! 😅 love the name! My go-to libraries for these are the Spitfire Symphonic strings, brass and woodwind. I do have the BBC Symphonic Orchestra libraries too but I’m still playing around with those to get an optimal mix for a band setting. I’m also using various Hans Zimmer percussion libraries with some seperate obscure patches like a harp guitar and glass instruments for texture. Expect more to be added to this body of works too 🙂 thank you for your comment and than you for listening! 🖤

[@NoNoNoNoYoureWrong]

@@jamieturton666 I find my screen name works great for online chats :P Spitfire's SO range is great, I know Lorne Balfe uses it quite a bit for his sketches, or at least used to. Personally, I love that they stuck with Kontakt for it as well rather than trying to update it to their play engine. BBCSO SOUNDS phenomenal, but with such poor optimization, it's really not useable to me, and I have a pretty robust setup. Anyways, great work! Look forward to hearing more.

[@jamieturton666]

Yeah SO is just so versatile and it works well out of the box. It’s quite well optimised with Kontact too so loading times are relatively short. I love the BBCSO libraries but you’re right - the optimisation needs looking at. There is a quick fix though; in the top right of the articulations panel should be a clickable link that will take you to a list of the active articulations for the particular instrument you’re using, you can uncheck all the articulations you may not be using in that particular session so when it loads next time it cuts the load time down a lot. When you load an instrument it will load every articulation and that’s the main part of the problem. If you do find that you need one of those unchecked articulations later in the session you can always go and check them and add them back in. It’s a much more efficient way around its shortcomings! I hope this helps!

[@Arn._.]

You killed it man! And a day early! Hell of a Christmas gift. I’ve been wondering what software you use to make these? Edit: May I also add Terminal by Silent Planet to the request list :)

[@jamieturton666]

Yeah didn’t want to drop on Christmas Eve and next weeks track is scheduled for Saturday too! I’ve added your request to the list - I really need to get working on Where The Dragons Dwell for you! I use cubase as the DAW and a mixture of Spitfire Audio libraries mainly for the strings, brass, woodwind, percussion and voices. There are some other libraries sprinkled in for specific textures if needed but mainly it’s Spitfire libraries, they are just very versatile. I will however be changing all of these in the new year to the BBC Symphonic Orchestral libraries as they are currently the industry standard and are honestly just on another level! I hope you and your family have the most wonderful Christmas my dude 🖤

[@Arn._.]

@@jamieturton666 yooo I’m looking forward to it! And awesome info. I’ve been kinda curious about getting into writing music but I gotta learn how to first lmao

[@jamieturton666]

It’s the kind of thing you just have to throw yourself into and learn as you go - you’re already musically minded so that will help a lot in the early stages but just jump in and get to know the programs and their nuances as that is half the battle to begin with! I’m sure you’ll be fine though!
