► A new track for a DemoScene project

Hey 🙋‍♂️

A last post this year and that with a little surprise. 😊 I got an invitation to a demo scene project. I will be participating and have been working on a new track since 26-Dec-2020. A track that is inspired by another track of mine. In addition, I can reveal that my new track is rather quiet. But not too quiet. The first 3min of the track already sound very cool. In my imagination, it's night. Around me a great lighting in front and I walk through a city. The air is clear, there are no cars to be seen. Maybe there will be snow. 😉 A great night and I hope my track will be too. 😃

More information about the track will be available only at the release. Be prepared that it may take some time. It's a big project that I've been invited. I might just give you a little update in March 2021. I can't promise anything.

In a few days the year will be over. It was a year that we will all never forget. This pandemic has hit us all hard. Hopefully this horror will soon be over. I wish you all the best for the coming year.

Finally, there is to say ...
The contact page got a small update. You can contact me via GOG and / or  Steam in the future. Or just put me on your friend list - if that's your wish.

And as so often, please excuse my bad English. 🤦‍♂️

I wish everyone a happy new year. 🎇✨🎉🍾🍸🍺

Regards,
melcom 🙋‍♀️

► We celebrate the 1st year of melcom-music.de

We celebrate the 1st year of ... ... www.melcom-music.de ✨🎈🎧 I present: The sound of melcom - Classics This album contains a small collection of tracks from my demoscene time. All tracks have been "slightly" revised. I made sure (hopefully) that they didn't lose their old charm when I edited the MOD files. In addition, the tracks were not simply edited. No, I use the original trackers of that time to edit the MOD files. For the AudioFiles (wav / mp3) I used different VST plugins & mastering tools.

What have I actually changed / what is new? I did my job quite well (I think). But then there are also special things, I had to use tricks to make the sample or the instrument sound better. Many samples are well over 20 years old or even older. I was also VERY inexperienced at that time. Besides, as a teenager I never had a good sound system. By the way; OpenMPT was a very big help for me in editing the samples! It is really a masterful tool. In every single MOD file I tried to improve the samples. For example to remove a crackle. Various loops within different samples have been improved. In some tracks new passages (patterns / channels) have been added. Many patterns / channels were revised. In really every track, something has been added or changed. You may not hear this sometimes, but I assure you, these places are there :) And if too much of the song changed, it became a special edition or extended version. NO sample has been replaced with a sample from today! Why did I do that? First; We celebrate the 1st year of melcom-music.de, and I would like to give you a gift. I want to make you happy. Yes, exactly, YOU! Who likes to come here often and always looks to see if there is something new from me. Times change. I have changed. I have (maybe) changed my music style etc. And still YOU come along and be faithful to me! That really means a lot to me. 💙 Secondly; I also like to listen to an old classic of mine. Often I am disturbed by what I did back then. My inexperience, my old sound system. Unfortunately I could not do it better. And third; It is Christmas 🎄⛄ Finally; Many of my tracks are so badly done that I often do not have the time to rework them completely. But I did my best in the time I had. After all, I have a Real Life as well and I also have quite different interests and obligations. I would have liked to rework many more tracks. Maybe that will come one day. PS: I would like to thank my friend SagaMusix.de. Every day he was there for me. I think he probably got one or two grey hairs ;) You are a true friend and man of honor. Thanks a lot! Enough talk, I hope you enjoy listening to revised works. I also wish you and your family a Merry Christmas - despite this pandemic that has hit us all. Stay healthy, everybody! 😷 And as always; sorry for my bad English. Yours, melcom 💾 Download: as a mod file music disc as an MP3 album or watch the Youtube video https://www.melcom-music.de/p/musicalbums2020.html#tsom-classics

And I can assure you, it was not always easy. I had many sleepless nights. And no, it was not because of my joy on Cyberpunk 2077. 😉

Sit down a reminder!
Friday, 18-Dec-2020 - 2 pm (CET) / Freitag, den 18-Dez-2020 um 14.oo Uhr.

Stay healthy! 😷
Yours, melcom

► Mechanical Love Song

Stay a while and listen! This is a love story between two robots. Yes, robots also need love! 🤖 💙 Never forget this story and tell it to others ...

I present my new track: Mechanical Love Song. It all started in just a few minutes. I was bored and I played around a bit with the Schism Tracker. But suddenly it sounded more and more like music. The first alpha version for the public, you can listen to it here. I had an idea of two robots that search, find and fall in love. 💙 All this time, I had a true friend by my side. Some of you will already know them. It is none other than my friend: SagaMusix.de. He gave me a lot of feedback and also strength, because I am in a time full of doubts. Doubts about myself and doubts about my work. I have him to thank for a very specific sample. A really great "Brass-Sample". You will hear this one and you will love this Brass-Sample! 😊 But now enough talking. More information on the download page. And now have fun with "Mechanical Love Song". I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas! 🎄🤶🎅⛄ Stay healthy during this time! 😷 Best Regards, melcom 💾 Download as .mp3 / .it mod file or listen to the title online: https://www.melcom-music.de/p/music2020.html#mechlovesong
