Tambako's Music

The Drone

Genre: Electro House
Duration: 8:50
Size: 10361k
Format: mp3
BPM: 135
Released on: 4 February 2008

I wanted to see what I'm able to do in electro house, which is getting more and more actual. I didn't want to make it too minimalistic because for me it's too boring, but still something rather constant with not many different chords, special beat and effects, but also rather aggressive and many syncopated patterns going along with the sidechaining, and I'm quite happy with the result, I think it sounds rather actual for one time. Quite electro, but with my personal touch as usual.

Ambition

Genre: Trance
Duration: 7:20
Size: 8590k
Format: mp3
BPM: 137
Released on: 25 January 2008

This track started like many : I wanted to test the new features of Reason 4.0 and particularly the Thor synthesizer which has been used almost exclusively. Result : a nice trance track, sounding powerful but also melodious, with actual sonorities of the style, but also a tribute to older sounds. For one of my first 'good' (well, rather good) tracks, I'm quite proud of it, so enjoy it!

Sea Lion's Island

Genre: Caribbean Electronic
Duration: 22:11
Size: 20809k
Format: mp3
BPM: 124
Released on: 11 January 2008

This is a music I composed one a half year ago for the Conny-Land, to play before the start of their sea lion show, but as I know, they never used it, so I decided to put it online. The music is a kind of mix between Caribbean and electronic music plus some other influences, and is the longest track I ever did. Even if it's technically nothing extraordinary, it makes a great background music. Just try it! :)

I Find Myself

Genre: Downbeat House(-Pop)
Duration: 6:37
Size: 7773k
Format: mp3
BPM: 106
Released on: 30 November 2007

I started this track at the end of 2007 but it stayed a long time unfinished, because I didn't find matching vocals, then I find that I could use some samples of "When I lose Myself" from Depeche Mode. Even if it's not really the vocals I was looking for, the result is quite good. Its style is a bit unusual and experimental, but well, I like to experiment. I also couldn't really define its style. If someone can help me, please do it. I hope you will find it interesting and enjoy it.

Mysterious

BPM: 130
Released on: 19 October 2007

Once again, this track started while playing with Reason, and I directly liked what I did so far, and made a track with it. Yeah, it's been more that 6 months that I didn't compose, and I can feel I lost a bit my hand on Reason, but it will come again. The track is nothing really special, and also quite commercial, has many elements of the nineties, but also quite recent, so again a special Tamby mix, but it's a good number for the dancefloor. And yes, JayB, I used Sidechaining this time!

Lamenting Transmission

Genre: House
Duration: 8:46
Size: 10279k
Format: mp3
BPM: 135
Released on: 27 April 2007

I'm happy about the result of this house piece (a bit trancy and progressive though), especially the beat that sound good and housy, and also the funky guitar, it's the first time that I can really play some funky guitar patterns, and it's an instrument from Reason! There are also many voice samples and effects, plus nice synths. This track will certainly work well on a dancefloor, since it's bouncy and funky! Enjoy!

Translucent Message

BPM: 133
Released on: 12 April 2007

Once again a track, in the pure Tambako tradition, but I tried to make it not sound too old, at least more actual as the previous one, but it's also not really possible to tell if it sounds "new" or "older". It's nothing great, but nice on the ear. I'm quite proud of the beat, it sounds sharp, strong and actual. The track has different synths that I also like, with a nice progression, plus soft pads and chords. But maybe the nicest instrument is the pan flute...

Timelapse

Genre: Deep House
Duration: 6:44
Size: 7889k
Format: mp3
BPM: 129
Released on: 26 January 2007

I composed this tune mostly because I am nostalgic of the deep house of the mid nineties, I was listening a lot to such mixes on the radio, and also we had some records of it. It's nothing special, and I composed it in around two evening only, but it's fresh and nice, so if you like old house, you will also like it! BTW, it's is kinda similar to 'Phasics' in its structure, harmony and some sounds used.

Color of Dance (trance version)

Genre: Trance
Duration: 7:33
Size: 8859k
Format: mp3
BPM: 135
Released on: 23 December 2006

This is a remix of an instrumental dance track from Sukiva, a furry friend of mine. She wrote it many years ago as a midi track, and not a long time ago, I decided to make her a surprise and create this mix! :) I mostly just took the melody of the track. Since it's almost Christmas, it will be a nice present for her! The style is trance, but relatively commercial, going to the direction of dance. It's nothing very great, but it has a god groove and nice harmonies, and has a strong beat and bass. Well, enjoy! :)

Let It Burn You

Genre: Deep House

BPM: 132
Released on: 8 December 2006

This is once again a more or less real house track, that I started when just I wanted to play with Reason exactly one week ago (and I didn't work on it every day). It might sound boring at start, but it has interesting sound corresponding to my style, and also a quite clear and groovy beat. If you really think that it's too boring, just wait till about 3:52 and you opinion might change, it has a little surprise there...
