First 404 video from Formal

Post by formal »

Just got done with this video of a little sp404 session. The main part of the song is from the battle65 sample. I would have submitted this for the battle except I used different drums and the intro vocal sample. Check it out and give me some feedback guys (I'm still a 404virgin).

.... oh yah please let me know if stuff like this should go in the share your music section.

enjoy

Thanks guys!

It was weird making the video because I had a different perception of how it sounded while I was playing it. When I watch the video it seems less exciting somehow. I guess I have a lot more practicing to do! DJ Shadow, I am not...

I'll work on some better quality vids and post them up on the SP youtube channel.

i love the ambient element in the samples you used, the tempo was good too, bringing back the early 90's uptempo swing lol, but otherwise great track & vid man, the 404 in my opinion has endless ways to use it, you did a good job man!!!

Nice vid, man.
I really like the intro, the beat with the drums is nice, too, very nice live playing. I only wished that you would make a cleaner transition from the intro to the beat where the drums come in, I think even like a reversed cymbal would've done the trick. Good job!

Good lookin at out everybody! I made a couple edits to the intro and outtro in response to some of the feedback. The track/video seems to have a better feel now. You can check out the edited version in the same place as above.

Thanks guys :)
