The movie and music were both well ahead of their time and evidence to this is the fact that the music style and movie premise is still being copied in modern movies and the music of today.]]> 2018-05-31 10:22:38 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/264744623 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/264745246 The industry standard tools of the DJ trade. I saved up for over a year to buy a pair of these and a mixer. Once I was a proud owner I then spent many, many hours botching mixes until I nailed a basic level of beat-matching. Thus began my career into DJing at parties and nightclubs and fostered my discovery of music from a new perspective. Turntables allowed me to revive and appreciate old music by crate digging in thrift stores and uncovering some magical old artists and records from other eras.]]> 2018-05-31 10:27:10 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/264745246 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267176829 Shapiro, P.

Many
Classic 90's house sounds were produced using this synth. I particularly love all the piano and organ presets along with the bells and mallet instruments, really helps create that 90's sound during production.]]> 2018-06-14 10:25:34 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267178996 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267179281 Pt.1 The Tree]]> 2018-06-14 10:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267179281 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267315229 Everyone will probably know one of their most popular songs 'September' (which was made even more popular by the Phatts and Small remix in 1999). I certainly loved the original and also gained further love from the remix. I have to thank Phats and Small for their influences prompting me to explore more of Earth, Wind & Fire. I bought their old records for a few dollars at thrift stores and embarked on a complete disco discovery. The musicality was astounding, these guys were prolific musicians, had fun doing what they did and in my opinion, epitomised disco music with their positive messages and extremely funky beats that you just couldn't help to shake it to.]]> 2018-06-15 04:44:17 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267315229 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267316716 From an early age, I would steal this record from my Dad's collection and play it over and over. I absolutely loved the Bee Gees via this album and it was essentially my first direct exposure to disco music at least on my own accord. I subsequently recorded the album onto a tape and eventually wore that tape out.]]> 2018-06-15 05:11:39 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267316716 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267340803 Pt.2 Reflections]]> 2018-06-15 09:18:08 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/267340803 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/269646635 Daft Punk influenced by Giorgio Moroder]]> 2018-07-08 08:11:59 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/269646635 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/270827721 Antiquity, Romance, Feature film]]> 2018-07-23 02:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/270827721 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/271853202 A depiction of horror in video form]]> 2018-08-03 03:16:19 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/271853202 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/271873378 2018-08-03 08:43:37 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/271873378 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/274768635 A mashup of disparate genres, using blended aspects of the chosen genres to blend into a cohesive sounding track.]]> 2018-08-23 03:53:43 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/274768635 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/274804491 Observations of my time spent in AIM110]]> 2018-08-23 09:04:27 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/274804491 1014651 https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/274804519 2018-08-23 09:04:37 UTC https://padlet.com/1014651/3fc5v3kfyf8k/wish/274804519
