(Adcore) In All Things

Posted: 08 Feb 2019

Been a while since I posted anything here outside of streams, so figured I'd change that today :)



This is a tune that I originally wrote & recorded in October 2016, which I've since tweaked along with all of the other tunes from that particular session... but I still haven't found a home for all of them. I guess it's a sort of progressive/electronic kind of thing, but I'm rubbish with genres so I'll leave that up to you.

I'd love to know what you think of it! :D

Like the sound of this!

Reminds me so much of Tycho in the lighter floaty areas of the track

Wow, loved this. It's definitely a left turn from the more pastoral/ethereal sound that I've heard before from you, which makes it more appealing to me. Excellent mix too. The meandering guitar patterns remind me of Celtic Cross - Hicksville, but the heavier part departs from that template. Great mix too... I should probably watch your video's sometime to pick up some tips.

(edit: btw if you name the genre "adcore" I'm expecting an advertisement-sampling sonic collage with distorted beats... but maybe that's me)

Thanks! As is often the way when I'm working with odd time signatures, I didn't sit down and think "oh hey, it'd be fun to write something in 9/8" - I was just noodling on the guitar and it sort of turned out that way. It's always fun when that happens :)

Cheers - ahh yeah, I'd love to get a real drummer on some of my tracks but for a lot of my music I think it'd be cost prohibitive, unfortunately. That said, I'm currently looking to bring in a drummer on another project so if that works out well then, hey, who knows!

Oh wow, thanks! I'd never really considered much of a similarity to Tycho in this track, but I'd be lying if I said that I hadn't been influenced by Tycho's music before so it wouldn't surprise me if a little bit of that bled into this track :)

Haha, thanks! The mix in particular is something I seem to be constantly tweaking with the tunes I wrote in October 2016 (to be fair, the original versions sound like utter crap) so I'm glad to hear the mix doesn't sound too wonky. Also, I just realised from your logic that "Adcore" would be a perfect descriptor for Imagine Dragons. Eughhh.... :P

Great production Adam, I'd call this stuff Breaks (Progressive Breaks, if you need more descriptors), it reminds me of BT's style most. Everything is top notch here.

Thanks! Not sure I'd go with progressive breaks, myself - buuuut given that I'm rubbish with genres in general I'm not really in a position to criticise :) Glad you liked it!

Really nice. Delicious full sound, and nice breaks.
