From Machine to Release | “Emozione Artificiale” (Track Deconstruction)
From Machine to Release (Neil “Acidulant” Hales)
Maltese electronic music artist Neil Hales (also known as Acidulant), talks about his favourite musical hardware equipment such as the Roland TB303 bassline. Neil explains how these machines inspire him to produce a track which would eventually become an acclaimed release.
“Emozione Artificiale” Track Deconstruction (Chris Goa )
Chris will be deconstructing his track ‘Emozione Artificiale’, a track which is heavily influenced by his love for arpeggiated basslines, 80s riffs, leads and screaming pads. Throughout the deconstruction he explains some of his production techniques, plugins, synths & DAW of choice. This track is part of an Italo-disco oriented audio-visual project which Chris has been working on for the past 2 years. He uses Reason (Reason Studios) as his DAW of choice.
