I composed "Northern Lights" after reading the Phillips Pullman book of the same name.

When I first read the book in 2003, my thoughts were that it should be made into a film. I decided back then to compose what I perceived could be the opening/closing film theme.

Little was I to know that in 2007 the film "Golden Compass" (the America title of the book) WAS to be realised

The track was composed amd sampled using a Yamaha DJX (which I still have).

I have remixed it for upload on here.

I hope it brings some pleasure, so comments welcome

Hi Bigball, you are right on the money

This track was done "live" on a Yamaha DJX keyboard and recorded onto a C90 tape.

My mate then (back in the day) bought a Stereo with a CD recorder on it; so all my tracks written in the late 80's - early 90's I was then able to committed to CD.

For those days technology has moved on ten-fold, and therefore this Tape to CD recording was then ripped to mp3 without unfortunately any filtering, mixing etc.

The track was to hopefully showcase a different style of "old school" synth, actually recorded live; hence the interference/hissing sound quality.

Hello there fellow musician.

 

I agree with the filter comment, but guess this was ripped from a tape recording, those were the days eh!  I really like it, and would love to hear an updated version.....

I'd be up for a new version, defo.....some prog sounds in there too buddy

Good melodies.

Best Regards Neil Brown

I hear to much interference (filter it)

mi associo alla valutazione di giovanni tiddia che ti assicuro se ne intende.

io ti consiglio di rivalutare alcune piccolezze e vedrai che il brano rigliorerà in modo vistoso.

Ciao Galaegaala.

Klingt echt gut,

diese Stimmen können nur YAMAHA sein ;-)

Ho ascoltato con attenzione, c'è qualcosa da correggere, però io parlo da musicista arrangiatore, e quindi la musica che ascolto la analizzo accoratamente.
La mia valutazione è 3 stelle ma il tuo brano con un arrangiamento migliore vale molto di più
Un saluto da Giovanni
