jonbaken Posted September 8, 2010 Share Posted September 8, 2010 www.georgeandjonathan.com Hi, my name is Jon Baken. I make up one half of George & Jonathan. We just finished our first album. Although our sound is typically described as chiptune, we draw influence from many other genres including funk, prog, dance, and jazz.. download for free or donate... either way ENJOY!!!

Calum Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 I've only listened to business trip so far but I'm just loving this so much! Great, tight and absolutely funky! Look forward to listening to the album! Ps. Got any tips on obtaining Piston Collage? It seems pretty hard to find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ectogemia Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Fantastic. Where did you get these lo-fi samples? I'm in love. Please tell me! No More Lies was by far my favorite track. The lead was AMAZING, so expressive... god, the pitch bends... gave me goosebumps. That's how you know you did your job as a composer. Bravo, gentlemen. My only complaint is an obvious one: not much variety. You two have mastered the hell out of creating disco-funk sorts of music. I took a look at some of your ambient music as well, and while I love ambient and I enjoyed what I heard of yours, it didn't much compare to this album. You can write a melody like a hero, but you have room for improvement on creating stronger atmospheres when melodies are a no-no, like in ambient music.

jonbaken Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 thanks everyone who has checked this stuff out @Ectogemia I really appreciate the constructive criticism..I feel like people are always hesitent to offer it...anyways, the samples come from all different places.. many of the leads are samples from my Nord Lead II,while most of the other stuff we use is just junk I've collected over the years from scouring the internet. Also thanks for checking out my other stuff too! I agree that its not as strong.. it was my first attempt but certainly not my last at ambient music + now i have a juno 106 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackPanther Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 This shit IS sweet! I will download and hopefully be able to donate a few bucks or so. I have no gripes, you guys went for a sound, a style and you executed it perfectly so what's there to complain about? Awesome stuff guys, hopefully I can get on you guys level of dope someday =).
