Morte Et Dabo (A Sturgis mix)

[joeymusicguy]

Haha wow I actually thought you were playing around at first, but it's really a stock preset.

yeah, it means "the gift of death"

the song is about the apocalypse

at the end, you hear the actual event of the apocalypse with all the buildings crumbling and earthquakes

 

[joeymusicguy]

What was the orchestra in the beginning?

a combination of east west symphonic, symphobia, omnisphere, and other shit

 

[joeymusicguy]

Heard the song... Holy shit! The intro is insane! The Synths are so cool sounding in this!

Joey - are the synths Omnisphere? Sounds so good! Does that have a built in trance gate, or do you use an external plug for that?

I love the drum tones in this too!

no trance gates were used, just manual chopping after exporting the audio

there's actually a very intense set of audio fx going on with the keys
sometimes effects are applied, then bounced, then more effects or edits are applied, and then bounced, and on and on and on

 

[Chris_P_Critter]

Holy shit dude - could have fooled me - sounds like an arp or gate for sure! If that was all manual, I don't wanna even think about how long that took!!

Killer song and mix dude!

How did you make the vocals sound like that? It sounds sort of distorted( in a good way)

The part im talking about starts at 1:32 and ends at 1:44.
Im really interested in what you did to the vocals to make them sound that way.

 

[NSGUITAR]

Izotope Trash rules for that kind of stuff.

When I read the title, I knew it had choir samples from Omnisphere.

I was right.

guilty, but c'mon, it fits the lyrics perfectly

 

[mmmatthew]

Sounds great Joey!

by the way im the guy that started that thread on gearslutz a while back where everyone grilled the shit out of you lol

 

[SawdustRecordings]

WOW, there so many awesome things going on! Even the FX on it's own are a great peace of art! The only thing I don't like is the harmony change at 1:12 when it comes to the chorus. The two parts don't seem to fit together...

Joey, I love the snare sound in your new productions. It has some decent and crisp highs in it. Guess thats a clipper.. are you still using transient designers on them too?

And btw.. what about that guitar feedback in the end. Guess you finally used a real amp to achieve this! Would be awesome to get that out of podfarm though! ;D

 

[Vinny]

Nope, I'm sure it's still Podfarm
There are ways to get feedback

 

[timislegend]

good gravy! ...the sickest production effects of the year! ...whoa man!

joey, that part with the tape-warp/vari speed effect on the entire mix is freaking mind-blowingly COOL!

dude!

 

[Josh Burgess]

I liked the synth stuff and apocalypse sound effects at the end but thought the song was really boring...

 

[Tungemikkel]

love your work sturgis! mix sounds awesome..

 

[JeffEstrada]

joey, just wondering, what snare and kick did you use on the stand up and scream album?

 

[DayByDayBand]

This mix is one of my favorite Sturgis mixes, and i freaking love the song too
