CyrusFX gives us little taste of his broad music composition expertise with this little Electronica number that tickles the mallets.

Inspired by the DIY home studio technology revolution (a la Brian Eno, Aphex Twin & Global Communication), Fx vowed to be at the forefront of how it applied to the cultivation of new and modern musics (whether or not they are bonafide are up to you). Traversing the grounds of hip hop, funk, house, ambient & techno, no one genre can suitably capture his array of musical endeavors.

DeJa Vu

February 22, 2009 | Category: Recommended Listening | Leave a Comment

Although a pretty old soundtrack now I felt the urge to go back and blog it,  I’ve been putting a few of these tracks into my sets and they sound great.

lovely sections to loop and to use as sound beds and tracks that definitely should get some play in your Electric soundtrack sets.

The composer on this is [[Harry Gregson-Williams]] who is currently working on  [[X-Men]] origins soundtrack with [[Hybrid]] which as normal should be very exciting to listen to.

My recommended:
The Aftermath from 2mins in
Algiers Ferry
Claire’s Apartment
Dazzle Me
Tell Me The Truth – Towards the end at 2:07mins

Crafted from guitar, piano, electronics and homemade beats, each track is set within a frame of flourishing musical activity. Ultre’s second album is an elegant, bold & extravagant example of modern composition.

A Electronic Score from [[Johnny Klimek]] and [[Reinhold Heil]] usually known for the [[Techno]] type scores but in this one opting for an orchestra which is obviously a good choice.

This score is not the most upbeat to say the least but still provides stripped down textures and melodic rhythms which make this score fit nicely into mixing beds and [[Ambient]] [[Electronica]] DJ sets although can seem a little repetitive in places their use of Piano, Double bass strings and Mallets keeps you interested enough.

Tracks to check out: On the way to Moody’s bail bonds and Security check.
