This week features in interesting debate about the concept of "realism" in tracked music. Is realism the ideal we are all striving for in tracked music? Or is it a dead end, best left to the acoustic/MIDI people while we define our own styles, unique to the tracker? Eric Bell is focusing on mods and tracking for his spot in Music and Computers Magazine, helping the tracking scene gain recognition in an age where MIDI and wave files seem to be the only thing the average user is even aware of. Be sure to check out his article. This week's TraxCulture is again dedicated to Basehead, our (in)famous scene musician. =) Enjoy the issue, and sorry about the delays.

The State of the Scene]----------------------------------[Psibelius]-- Well, it's sure nice to able to IRC more frequently, isn't it? Welcome back to TraxWeekly, which is now dangling precariously over the pit of dying publications. =) Now that all of you are awake and sufficiently aware of what I just said... It would be very nice if TraxWeekly was chock full of interesting, useful, and entertaining articles every week. It would be nice if it was loaded with interviews of the best people in the scene, rounded out with a good TraxCulture. However, it isn't like that. Why? For a couple of reasons: any attempt to be "funny" just for the sake of having an interesting TraxCulture usually bombs. We'll drop TraxCulture articles for a short period every few issues. Why? Because after we publish one, I get tons of ludicrous logs in the mailbox, each of them over 20k, with the comment, "there's this one line that was really funny, hope you can find it." Hmmm, I guess I'll just skip work, practicing, eating, and sleeping in order to find that one supposedly funny one-liner. Spontaneous laughs are rare, and very enjoyable. Let's keep it that way. This newsletter fluctuates between good and bad very often. It usually stands around the average or fair lot. This is reality. Finding new and innovative journalism is impossibly difficult, and people that have the time to commit to writing articles on a volunteer basis is even harder. I write this mainly to draw the attention of non-North American readers, mainly because it seems we are geting isolated farther and farther. As one Music Contest 4 judge pointed out, the majority of entrants came from musicians in North America. The music scene is not restricted to this one continent, it's everywhere on the planet. To those of you from Europe, Asia, and the South Pacific, I encourage you to tell TraxWeekly a bit more about the activities and changes in the scene in your local area. Will you tell me about new music released by awesome musicians in your area who hardly frequent the net? Can you fill me in on what's happening in your corner of the world? I would like to bring TraxWeekly up to a more international focus, and abandon some of the amateurish attitude that we seem to have taken with respect to musicians outside the PC platform and not in North America. What's going on in the Amiga music scene? It sure isn't dead, because I still see people raving about it on IRC. What new music is coming out of musicians in the United Kingdom? Australia? Singapore? The music scene is for everyone, regardless of location, platform, or stature. TraxWeekly is a weekly newsletter dedicated to bringing music scene news to people all over the world. This newsletter belongs to you, the readers. You've got to be able to contribute some of your knowledge, your experiences in order to get others to contribute theirs. It's information exchange, plain and simple. You don't get anywhere by sitting in a room by yourself, unplugging the phone, and playing Doom. Don't expect me to be an all in one scene critic, reporter, and manager. I'm not an omniscient entity that watches over everyone. I'm a music scene musician like many of you, who just happens to enjoy writing. TraxWeekly is entertaining for me because of the feedback. Please, if you'd like to see something in this newsletter, please don't hesitate to ask. Also, if you haven't yet checked out IRC, now is the time. Link yourself up to servers neato.org or serve.org, and join the #trax community. -psib [traxweekly] gwie@csusm.edu ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --[2. Readers Trax in Music & Computers]-----------------------[Eric Bell]-- Starting in the November/December issue of Music & Computers magazine I will be writing a regular column on MODs. Mostly I will be reviewing selected *original* compositions by you, the tracking samplemeisters. In order to be included in the mag, you've got to be willing to communicate via email some of the down and dirty facts about yourself, and your composition, and what makes it unique, cool, what tricks you used, etc. etc. etc. Think your stuff is good enough? Unique enough? Original enough? Want some free press? Ride your browser to http://www.howlingdog.com and follow the links to the FTP area. Upload your best shot and send me an email telling me about it. howling.dog@sympatico.ca *** Please upload only original compositions *** No remixes. *** One upload per composer please Folks, this is a great opportunity. I told one of my industry pals I was starting a column on MODs and he said `I thought they were DEAD'. Let's show the world what MODs can do. Eric Bell, Howling Dog Systems Inc. P.S. Didja see the article on MODs in the July/August issue? ---- Eric Bell Howling Dog Systems howling.dog@sympatico.ca RR1 3833 Daley Rd. http://www.howlingdog.com Sydenham, ON, Canada vox 613 376-3868 K0H 2T0 fax 613 376-3584 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --[3. Debate: "Realism"]---------------------------------------[#trax-ers]-- i found the obscure amiga tune whence necros ripped the point of departure drumloop. nexus: that is lame advice.... use a sax... in a tracked song? why not just use an adlib .ROL tracker and get the same effect sax? just sample a lawnmower...same thing...=) in: um you can do a sax right if you know how to multisample and have a smidgen of talent in: I don't undersatnd... what's wrong with a real sax ? :) necros: bulls---. that's like saying you can recreate a voilin concerto using a tracker... the instrument has too many variations to accurately represent it digitally... unless you're GOING for a f---ed up sound... in: well go listen to greynote.s3m and if that doesn't convince you then i'll send u a beta of 'orchard street' from my upcoming MD. you can't get it perfect but you can get pretty darn close necros: are you saying you did a better sax than in greynote? hasn't anyone figured out yet that tracker's are not meant to replicate music that already exists? if you want a SAX sound... learn to play the saxaphone pro: yes intense: since the lead is almost a huge wav file chopped up into ten pieces, it works. nec: send away... i love to eat my words... in: I can get perfect sax sample from my synth... in_tense - if you're measuring the worth of a tracked song by how "real" it sounds, I might suggest that you're on the wrong channel, with the wrong attitude, and writing the wrong media of storage. if i'm so wrong, then how come i've never heard a sax tracked song and said to myself... hey? is that sax REAL? intense: you don't listen to enough music? necros write a book called "The Joy Of Sax" i know of no way to create something with as much variation in tone, attacks, dynamics, or vibrato as a say, a mozart violin concerto without creating 50 megs of samples. The Joy Of #trax in_tense - who cares whether it was a 'real' one or if a 'real' one was precisely duplicated... it's music catspaw: i'm not saying that at all... i'm saying that it's futile for you to even attempt to make the sax sound real, cause it NEVER will unless you use a direct sample and do not try to create a new melody/pattern with that one sample. it sounds like S----! I don't care if you can use every fuckin mod effect there is on a couple of sax sample... it's not gonna sound like a sax lead. in: whatever bucko, just because you've listened to cdrom.com shit all yer life doesn't mean things aren't possible :) necros: i've never downloaded a singlee tune from cdrom.com cause it all sucks in_tense - might I suggeset that you remove the large rod of tungsten from your anus? Your limited view of music is depressing and nauseating. catspaw: ok.. and where can i buy YOUR CD at? in: well you are right, cdrom.com is 95% crap but still don't say things aren't possible when you don't know what you're talking about :) in_tense: there's a lot of "shit" on cdrom.com that you could compete with in your wildest dreams, but still not exceed in_tense - Is that a challenge for credentials? Anyone with fifteen dollars can find a way to press a CD of dogs flatulating. necros: let me elaborate: if you're trying to create an INTRICATE sax sequence, unless you're willing to use a LOT of samples to sufficiently represent the various inconsistencies of that instrument, you are going to FAIL to make it sound like it was being played by a real person. in: *shrug* i know what the hell i'm doing dude, i use 10+ samples of bends, hits, overdrives, diff octaves, and keyclick noises ----- So the question is: is "realism" something viable for tracked music? Your opinions concerning this matter are most welcome. TraxWeekly's second survey results will be published in a future issue. In the meantime, please direct your comments concerning the debate on "realism in tracked music" to . Who's right, and who's wrong? Is there any right or wrong? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --[4.
