Time Warped Minds


Last week JonD came over and we came up with a wild chord progression. After it was all over I counted 25 different chords in this song. The title Time Warped Minds came from this. Time because we are both old and Warped Minds because we come up with some really weird chord progressions.

BiaB Style = WaltzSoft - Slow Smooth Waltz
Tempo = 95

Drums - Steven Slate's SSD5 - fx - Waves CLA drums, Little Plate Reverb (LPR) on the cymbals and percussion

Bass - Ample Bass - Upright - fx - Waves bass rider
Piano - Velvet - preset 09 MKI roomy - fx - LPR
Strings - Kontakt - Kirt Hunter's Virtuoso strings - fx - LPR - I slightly modified this track
BiaB chord track - Kontakt - Solid State Symphony - FX - LPR

Guitar - Kontakt - Pure Jazz Vibes - fx - vocal rider, LPR - The first few measures of the vibe leads I played on my guitar. I didn't like it so I converted it to MIDI. When the harmonies come in I am playing them on my keyboard controller.

I am playing the tenor sax via my wind controller, fx - Pro EQ, delay, vocal rider and LPR
I am playing the cello lead via my keyboard controller, fx - Waves Bass rider

As always all comments are welcomed.


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Isn't that simply another term for musical creativity?

Neat choice of style and just about everything else.

Ah, you guys otta get a room already. A big room to fill with a huge audience to listen to the wonderful music you produce. So much going on in there, yet nothing steps on anything else. Very creative stuff.


Enjoy whatever happens!

cool stuff. I tend to stick with 3 chords and occasionally the minor 6th.....

Mario & Jon,

Relaxing. A pleasant listen.

Holds together well (with that many chords, I was expecting it to get "wild" at some point...it didn't)

Nice job on the sax and vibes...

As usual (from any music bearing the stamp "MarioD"), beautiful, lush and expressive.

Congratulations, all involved. This is somewhere between Debussy and relaxing jazz, to my ears at least. Nice :-)

Very beautiful and relaxing.

25 chords huh? It's complicated, but it doesn't sound complicated.

Very relaxing after a tough day baby-sitting a fractious ten-month old wink

Pretty! As others noted, not at all a dissonant mess that the description hinted at. wink

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Lovely song Mario. Good thing you had BIAB to keep all those chords together. Very cool listen. Melody and instrumentation made for an excellent listen. Well done

A pleasant construction mario, your skill with the controller was already impressive and it's improving each time.

I'm not qualified in this genre, but hat's off to you for chord use. Good balance.

Hi Mario,

What a wonderful and relaxing sound. Your creation sits on the psyche very, very comfortably. I loved your choice of instruments. You really do some terrific stuff with MIDI. It's always a pleasure listening to your creations.

All the best,
Noel
