Slaygon and Reyn - Troll (Felix Culpa)

1 other remix of Troll

1 other remix of subtune 2

I got inspired by Hazel's Mugsys Revenge remix because I've always wanted to do some 30's gangster style music, but wanted something more… odd. So I started doing the drum track to make it as weird as I possibly could, and that is pretty much all that remained from the initial take. I did numerous attempts with both the original SID elements and the occational piano poking, trying to get that feeling I wanted to the song.

I failed. Miserably.

So… I sent the track over to Reyn, asking him if he could possibly do a Saloon type piano thing on this, and in return I got a number of separate tracks consisting of guitars, pianos and organs.

The end result is that the drum track and the bassline are built by me, sent off to Reyn who built the rest. Mixing and mastering was done at my place too.

I have to say, though, Felix Culpa - as in Happy Accident - all of the elements seem to be out of place, yet strangely enough they worked for me. I read the shouts and apparently they don't quite work for all of you, but it was good fun doing this track! Funniest part is that a number of the elements in the drum track are composed of shit I found at home, such as hollow toothbrush holders, coffee cups filled with cable clips and stuff like that.

Oh, and Reyn thought it was too long!
