Yea Trapp. Wanted to mention Rollo as well.
Top producer. In my opinion his Faithless album are much worse than what he used to create before Faithless. Stuff like Roll Goes Camping/Spiritual/Mystic and also OT Quartet with Rob D and lately under the Dusted guise.
And BT, no words, one of the most talented US Producers, too bad his latest stuff is way beyond the cheese mark.

'Slave to the Rhythm' - that opening chord sequence is just tooooo slinky. A sublime collection of 7ths, 9ths and suspensions that begs to go round... and round... and round...

Dead right Colin.
I love that sequence.
Before that record, I hadn't ever heard that dense and timbrally complex, layered synth pad sound with each voice playing fifths in my life.
I could figure out the basic sequence on guitar - but I could not figure out the chords properly as my guitar didn't appear to have enough strings for the chord voicings

here a point to Alan Parsons who worked with Martin and The Beatles with some tracks and albuns...

Alan Parsons was also the sound and mix engineer on "Dark Side Of The Moon" By Pink Floyd which is probably my favourite album of all time and still an influence on my music.
Cheers,
Bill

D50 Soundtrack, possibly... and I'm sure I've heard DigitalNativeDance on a Grace Jones record somewhere, too... 
To this day I'm not sure if what I play is exactly the right chords (until now I never thought of it as a 'fifths' kind of sound and I don't have the track here to listen to), but I don't really care as what I play sounds great to me

No, I agree with you Colin, it's 7ths and 9ths all the way
I meant that when the individual notes on the synth are tuned to fifths (via two oscillators ) then if one plays just two notes, the root and a major third, then the result is a major seventh chord.
If you play a simple major triad then you get a big, fat major ninth ( R, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th)
Which as far as remember were the chords on Slave - maj 9ths.
Cheers,
Bill

Joe meek: because he invented a lot of stuff we take for granted these days, to make his productions better sounding. Without him we wouldn't be producing the way we do today... |
