London Life - Final Mix

I finished off the track with the bass - a processed car pass, heavily EQ-ed for just most of the low end, layered with a pitched and stretched kick drum part, which i then loaded into the ESX24, allowing me to play through the range. has to be noted that i used the enveloper throughout this entire track to aid dynamics. and this part was no exception, as i needed to use the top snapping sound of the kick and add some sharp attack. the bass part was also follwed up with a heavily distorted echo of the boris johnson speech used in the intro of the track, where i have edited him to say 'War'. only in this part, i have pitched it down and stretched even further to give a 'warped' effect. The reese part that is fairly prominant in the latter part of the track is made up of a similar process, only sliced to be really short, placed into a 2 samplers on a loop, one sampler detuned. the whole track can be heard below.




Here is the final arrange window of the laid out track, with mastering added. this i think was the most testing part of the writing stage. the above track is a 320kbps mp3 of the final mix. 16-bit wav will be submitted on CD.

and the mixer window, showing the extensive mastering, where i started off using a default presets, and altered accordingly - for a D&B mix.
