Minecraft Soundtrack Mash-up by RYMDMETAFOR

Published on Apr 14, 2016 RYMDMETAFOR

RYMDMETAFOR is a new supporting member of MATRIXSYNTH!

Details on the video and track:

"This is a mash-up of four different songs from the Minecraft soundtrack by the amazing C418. The songs are
'Sweden' (Melodies, Chords and Bass)
'Minecraft' (Melody)
'Subwoofer Lullaby' (Keys)
'Living Mice' (Piano Melody)

Here is a link to the original album [Update: link fixed]:

The drums was made completely out of mangled sound effects from the game. The melodies were taken out of their context to form this immersive little pack of happiness. My hope is that you will recognize the melodies from your own Minecraft memories, and have a new experience collide with your nostalgia in a spectacular explosion. Why not add the song to your own gaming background music playlist?

Check out rymdmetafor.se for a list of the instruments used, and other projects of mine."

And a breakdown of the gear by track:

For "Sweden” melodies, i recorded an acoustic toy piano, and a glockenspeil.

For the “Minecraft” melody, I made a patch in the FM8 synth by Native instruments, which I then mangled with some effects via a synced lfo in Bitwig studio.

For the “Sweden” bass, I used Native instruments Monark synthesizer.

The piano and wurly are from a Korg SV-1 stage vintage piano.

The chords from "Sweden" was played on a Logan string melody mark II

The drums are made out of 100% mangled Minecraft sounds.

Everything was mixed in Bitwig Studio.

A KompleteKontrol 49 and iConnectMIDI 4+ are triggering the Mothers on multiple MIDI channels. A Launchpad and an iPad running Lemur control Ableton. A DJTT MF3D acts as a visual metronome. The Fender Rhodes is running through a Moog MF Drive."

Quadtrance

"Boomstar Modular Quadnic in 4 voice mode: different waves, pitches, and "Process Mode" settings and movement.

Right side sweetened—so you can mute that channel to hear the raw sound.

Obviously the .wav file sounds so much better...

Touch of Izotpe-ing to rein in the peaks and subtly EQ-in a bit of shimmer.

At 2:59 inversion, reversing and gain enveloping make the collage more chaotic."
