I have made my first orchestral trailers : Due to a listing for synch I have been working a lot on typical 70s psychedelic rock sounds and so for all David Gilmour and Pink Floyd fans - I've spent the last 2 days working intensively on the typical sound of David Gilmour in the days of “ Dark Side Of The Moon ”, recorded in the Abey Road Studio's and 70's psychedelic rock because of a listing. You wouldn't believe what you have to pay attention to. 😃" Today I'm releasing a tutorial and a recording of a track on my website that is intended to revive this vibe. The 70s was one of the most creative decades ever in terms of music technology. Here you can listen to the result - the song " Have a cigar " by Pink Floyd was the model for this one here : The title is like this because I referred to the original sound settings use by David Gilmour in the Abbey studio's when recording " Dark Side Of The Moon " Farbmusik Farbmusik : Music related to colors is currently my main concert outlet here in Switzerland. I am doing 2 concerts per month here are the dates which will be held in June 25.
