I didn't bother uploading everything to bandcamp again so you guys just have to deal with soundcloud. You can listen to the entire EP as a set from this link: [URL="http://soundcloud.com/rayven/sets/mir-ep-1/"]http://soundcloud.com/rayven/sets/mir-ep-1/ [/URL] OR from this page, because I know you're all too lazy to click the link.

i love era, it's okay and the ending piano section of the cold personal favourite would be era, but then again im a sucker for that kinda synth pop thing- however there are a few mastering issues on songs like demento where it sounds a bit muddy overall

What synths did you use?
Nice, it sounds nice. I advise to look up on 80s production techniques because they're a bit more on the ambient side than some of the hardhitting stuff here. I like it a lot though, how long did it take you to do this + what did you use?
[QUOTE=T.F.W.O.;32952728]What synths did you use?[/QUOTE] Mainly Omnisphere. [QUOTE=AK'z;32955222]Nice, it sounds nice.

Thanks guys. :smile:
Very nice music, but you could change those drums to 80's drum machines. Like Linndrum and TR-909
I like it, but it doesn't sound like the 80's in my opinion
Sounds good man. It's like a mixture of 70', 80's synth pop with some year 2000 spicing. If you want that 80's sound, crank up the reverb.

Thanks! :v: Next time I'll use a buttload of reverb I promise.
this actually sounds a lot like some kind of fucked up stereolab. and yeah guess what my only criticism is, yurko :v:

I made an attempt to 80s up The Cold because I think it's the easiest one to do. It's a superb track, one of your best for sure. [media]http://soundcloud.com/akayz_people/yurko-the-cold-akayz-80s-rehash[/media] Works best with headphones, I wanted to give it that "80s fresh air feeling". Verdict?
which goddamn 80's music are you guys listening to hah? [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ge-IFWGq-6o[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaHuzkyurC0[/media]

Sound boss! :v:
I love the 80's synth sounds. Man gotta love them analog synthesizers and all of those things.
[QUOTE=tomatmann;33077888]I love the 80's synth sounds. Man gotta love them analog synthesizers and all of those things.[/QUOTE] Wish I could afford some real analog synthesizers. :v:
I just feel like it's too dry. Too bare. That, and like everyone else said, it does not sound like 80's.
[QUOTE=wauterboi;33089027]I just feel like it's too dry. Too bare. That, and like everyone else said, it does not sound like 80's.[/QUOTE] Alright, cool. Glad you took the time to listen to some of it anyway! :smile:
Oh, where's my manners? I forgot to explain how I did like it still and it had a lot of potential it's just a bit too dry for my tastes.
[QUOTE=wauterboi;33094592]Oh, where's my manners? I forgot to explain how I did like it still and it had a lot of potential it's just a bit too dry for my tastes.[/QUOTE] The echo version I made isn't dry. But the original is still a really good track.
