New Music Release Details

Duncan — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 13:43:32 +0000

The next Achenar release will be something completely different: a roughly three minute single, released for free in both .mp3 and .flac formats. A video and artwork will be also be produced for the song. What sets this apart though, are the other things to be released alongside this.

First, the multitrack audio files, in much the same way that NIN has been doing. This means the individual tracks that the song is composed of (eg. bass drum, snare, vocals etc.) are available separately. You can load them in to your preferred music package and remix/use them however you wish.

Also, the original Renoise .xrns file. The entire song will be created, mixed and mastered in Renoise, so you will have full access to every single aspect of the music. You can see how it is composed and change/add/remove absolutely anything. Renoise has a free demo version, with only rendering and Asio support disabled, so this file can be used by anybody.

Next, all of the art, photo and movie assets used to create the artwork and video will be available for download, including any Photoshop files.

Finally, the After Effects project file used to the create the video, controlling all of the effects, assets, camera moves etc. Like the music, you will be free to alter/remix this however you wish. Loading the .aep file will, of course, require you to have a copy of After Effects.
