Gay Community + Stephen Baker + Jennifer Crowe + Hillary Savage + Celeste Bryant / SML Thank You

No comments:
  • I would like to thank my friends from the gay community who provided much inspiration and support while I worked on this project in 2006.

  • I would like to thank Stephen Baker of Red Antenna for collaborating with me on this project. Besides being the best ActionScript 2.0 - compliant Flash developer I have been able to find in New York City, his expertise in visual and interaction design have brought tremendous value to the project.

  • I would like to thank Jennifer Crowe who spent days and nights being our tagging engine.

  • I would like to thank Hillary Savage who provided me with a lot of courage and support during my stressful times working on this baby.

  • I would like to thank Celeste Bryant (LinkedIn) for submitting the project for awards consideration.

This is an early sketch to merge a line of almost-random ladyfinger note hits with a line of time-keeping synths as percussion. I find many such random things on my hard drives these days that I have long forgotten about. I wonder what I would think of it 10 years from now. Thank God some machines are archiving my history for me.

All About the Groove - Madison Park / 2006 / SML Remix Music

My friend Steven Hall (SML Del.icio.us: Steven Hall) once said to me that it was very hard to make instrumental music sound good. I used to take vocal lessons when I was a teenager, but I am a counter-tenor. Do you really want to hear me sing? I can't sing these days anyway—my voice has been severely damaged after my prolonged nicotine intake.


In 2006, on my path to writing better dance tracks, I discovered that you can get pristine vocal tracks from DJ contests. I signed up for my an ACIDplanet account and was on my first path of remixing.


A few things that I discovered along the way:

  1. It is much easier to get your tracks listened to—and thus discovered—when you're in a remix contest.
  2. You learn a whole lot by being inside a universe of producers all working from the same materials.
  3. You get a whole lot better from the constructive criticisms you received from musicians across the globe.
  4. By listening to other people's tracks, you also discover new ways of turning your samples into all the crazy machines
  5. You don't have to take my word for it. Go listen to the other contest entries as well as the original track and you shall see that creativity is oozing everywhere, waiting to be discovered.

I have mixed about 10+ tracks since then. Until I have time to convert them all to MP3 and unload onto IMEEM, you can hear my music hosted on ACIDplanet. I have two identities: SML and Symphonic Electronica.
