'This View' - The emotion is real

Hi again guys,

This time I made one of those track that just comes to you, and the emotion of the track catches you instantly. 

It's called 'This View' and is inspired by the view on me and my classmates altan on our study trip to Rome, Italy. 


I really hope that you like it and find it as beautiful as the view itself.

If you want a "Behind the track" of this one, please leave a comment or contact me at musicdab@hotmail.com. 

I'm looking forward to hearing from you :)

Btw, you can download the track on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/musicdab/musicdab-this-view

Kings of Tomorrow (2014 Bootleg)

Hi guys,

I'm back with another track. This time it's a bootleg of 'Kings of Tomorrow ft. Julie McKnight - Finally'.

I produced the bootleg back in 2014, but never finished it probably... Until now.

The bootleg is faster and more melodic than the original song, but still has a nice feel to it. The original song is a masterpiece and by making a bootleg close to the original would the impossible and a wannabe song.

Therefore it's pretty far from the original, but with a nice feel to it.

I hope you like it.

Here it is:



And here is the 'Behind the track' video:




Thank you for watching and listening.

'Behind the track' - What is that? What can I expect? When?

Hi guys,

I'm making a whole new concept now. 

When I, in the future, am releasing some new tracks, some of those tracks will have a 'Behind the track' video to it.

What is 'Behind the track'?
It is a video of the project file in FL Studio of the track. The purpose is to show a physical product of the structure of the track. 

What can I expect?
It is not an in-depth video where I talk about how I came up with the melody or sound design etc. But a video where I play the track, and while it plays I show what plugins I used, how the melody goes, the automation, and the arrangement.

When will you release a new 'Behind the track' video?
I'm not going to release a 'Behind the track' video for all my tracks, but I'll gladly accept requests. Without requests, I will make a 'Behind the track' video when I think you'll like to see what is going on in the released track.

Until then. Thank you for reading this.

P.S. the first will be about a bootleg I made from 2014.

"True Stories" - Should I watch it eventually?

Hi guys,

This article is a follow-up to the previous one: "Avicii documentary: True Stories". 

The difference between the two articles is that I hadn't watched the documentary yet in the previous one, but in this one, I have.



What is it exactly about?
So, True Stories is a quite serious documentary about Avicii and how he worked his ass off with his friends (among these, Otto Knows) when he was 18 but also now at 28.

The movie gives the viewer a glimpse of both the fun but also the sad, hard, and stressing parts of his journey as an artist.

The film also shows the impact of money in the music industry where people don't really care about your health or how you feel, but only about the money. 

Avicii realizes this when he's sick (at risk of dying), and on 20 pills a day but is still forced to play a lot of shows because it's too expensive to cancel.  




What is good about it?
When watching the documentary, you get surprised how talented Avicii are. 

One thing is that Tiësto, David Guetta, Otto Knows and Laidback Luke participates in the film.

Another thing is that Chris Martin from Coldplay stands up while Avicii is talking and yells that he can't believe how talented Avicii is while smiling and taking his hands to his head.

Wyclef Jean is also an example when Avicii suggest a chord and Wyclef Jean is like "there it is!" and can't stop smiling. 
And at the same time, he compares Avicii with the classical musicians because he has the whole "symphony" in his head.

The same with Nile Rodgers who talks about how talented Avicii is.

All in all, everybody is amazed at his talent.




Should I watch it then?
If you think you know Avicii, think again. By following his YouTube channel, you will witness that some of the videos have been used, but there're clips that no one, until now, has seen.

The film will show you the "behind the scenes" of the music industry and will make you gasp when seeing Avicii stoned on medic pills and still being persuaded to give a half-an-hour interview.

The film is also quite "entertaining" because you're captured by every single comment in it, both fun, savage, harsh, sweet, chocking and frustrating comments.

All in all, yes I think you should watch it.

Avicii documentary: "True Stories"

Hi guys!

The 26th of October I'm going to see Avicii's new documentary "True Stories" with my mom and dad in Cinemaxx, Copenhagen.



As far as I know, "True Stories" is based on:

1. The background, the stories, of his songs from the "True" album (2013) and the "Stories" album (2015).



2. His stressful and ill period that was happening for a few years.

3. His career. 

I'm very excited to go, and I'll be writing about it afterward so you can get an idea of the plot; facts, quality, and the story about his album songs.

As for now, here's the trailer: 


Thank you for reading,

My first official remix: Morty - Believe It

Hi guys,

I'm very excited to announce that my first official remix is done. It's not going to sell and get released on Spotify or any other media, but it's the first time I can call the track a remix instead of a bootleg!

It means that I got permission from the artist to post it as a remix.












I'm very grateful, and I want you to check his music and Facebook-page out:
https://www.facebook.com/morty94/

You can hear the remix here...: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gb3QTpa03gA




... and the original here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHY0qlgolCY




Thank you very much for reading this, and maybe for listening if you wanted to. YOU are the reason I'm making music, and loving it as much as I do - so thank you very much.

"Denmark" - New track.

Hi guys,
I'm back with a new track called Denmark (my country). I hope you like it. After reading the Maarten Vorwerk tipsoftheweek.pdf, I've learned a lot. My mixing isn't near perfect yet, but I feel like I've improved a lot. I hope you can hear the same thing I hear (tip: the energy in the drop)😉
