This tune fucking slaps.
I think the god of rainbows is on this forum and uses reason. Name seems awfully familiarChulaCoola wrote: ↑14 Jul 2023I recently heard this song by Quixotic Sound Design - I love it. I don't know if they did it in Reason or not. If anybody knows, let me know. I have a SoundCloud play list for Reason songs. In any case it is on my Hot Ones play list.

Yeah, I guess I'm the last one to arrive at the TD party. Strange because I'm such a huge Pink Floyd fan, and TD's music is very close to that genre in many ways. It's hard to know about every artist and every band, but I'm glad I discovered this one. Isn't it great that new discoveries still await us!
In regard of TD being close to PF, listen to Force Majeure, it is the most "symphonic rock" album they've done and obviously very much influenced by PF. It's also my favorite TD album.
That could have been me, but I'm not the only Porcupine Tree fan here
Not only that, their keyboard player uses Reason, even during live gigs

No duh, that was Shaggy.
Haha, me too. I think Fear of a Blank Planet was my introduction to them, so very late but they’re pretty obscure over here in the USA. So good. I’m actually not a huge prog rock fan. Floyd yes, Genesis no and Rush never in a million yearschallism wrote: ↑15 Jul 2023It's hard to know about every artist and every band, but I'm glad I discovered this one.

I was also late to the Porcupine Tree party. I discovered that amazing band from this very forum. So a big thanks to whoever that was that introduced me to Porcupine Tree. Their drummer is something else!
And that’s why I have no excuse (except geography) as I’m a huge Japan fan!crimsonwarlock wrote: ↑15 Jul 2023Not only that, their keyboard player uses Reason, even during live gigs![]()

I had forgotten about that. I think it was mentioned in the thread where I was first introduced to PTree. Luckily, it piqued my interest enough to give them a go. I love it when I hear about confirmed world-class talents who use Reason because we hear far too often that Reason is a toy, professionals don't use it, bla bla bla. We all know that is nonsense but it's good to have some names to throw out in defense of our DAW.crimsonwarlock wrote: ↑15 Jul 2023Not only that, their keyboard player uses Reason, even during live gigs![]()

I totally agree. The problem with Rush is their singer. I think their musicianship is top notch. I can't stand the singer, though. I could absolutely listen to an instrumental album by Rush. Another amazing drummer in that band, obviously.
Me too. I just wish they didn't use so much pixelation. Oh wait... you were talking about music, weren't you?
