Illusive Mind - Mountains are Mountains (Part One)

  • Artist: Illusive Mind
  • Title: Mountains are Mountains (Part One)
  • Genre: Trance
  • Year: 2008
  • Length: 5:51 minutes (6.11 MB)
  • Format: Stereo 44kHz 146Kbps (VBR)

Here is my entry for the Electronic Music Contest 3. I found some chords that worked with the Brain Tease samples, slightly pitch shifted. The rest of the track grew organically from there and took on a life of its own and so I don't really consider it a remix like some of the other brilliant entries.

I hope you enjoy it. Stay tuned for part two.

The first several minutes were very Baraka-esque, and it progresses really well into the rest of the track too - keeping that epic cinematic feel going. Really enjoyed it, very dramatic. And theres a part 2?! Saweet :P

Hey Matt,

Baraka, sweet I'm in good company there! I'm really proud of this one, love the epic quality. Gotta pump out the second part now!

Thanks Frank! Really it's only half the track but I might not finish the second half before the close of the competition. Hence the intermission! If you know my music you'll have a pretty good idea of what's coming next, haha.

All of the elements combine nicely. Very good work. I like the zen samples, where did they come from?

What a great idea to use archive.org for audio samples. I've used the site for video often (I'm an editor), but hadn't thought of using it for audio. I'm going to poke around in there!

Yeah, this is a good search engine for a few creativecommons sites:
