Virtual Wax Sessions vol. 10: Aural Imbalance Special [Vinyl Reality][Valve Index]
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Simon Huxtable (aka Aural Imbalance) is one of the most unique Artists in all of the atmospheric Drum and Bass genre. His sound could be best described as ''Drum and Bass for the Space Age'' Or "Stratospheric Drum and Bass".
Aural Imbalance is one of my favorite Atmospheric DnB producers, that's why i decided to dedicate a mix to his amazing music.
And because this is Drum and Bass for the space age, it was most appropriate to make this mix on the surface of the moon. ;)
Tracklist:
AI - Voyage To Callisto
AI - Realm Of Innocence
AI - Idiosyncrasy
AI - Keizen (Subversive Remix)
AI - Recall
AI - Nine Tease
AI - Project 15
AI - Perfect Sense
AI - Icefields Of Proxima
AI - Worlds Apart
Slowfade - Up In Flames (Aural Imbalance Remix)
AI - Instantaneous
Huge thanks to Bigbang for the custom environment for Vinyl Reality and thanks Calius for the custom MS Slipmat.
Mixed by Tripnotix (aka tripnot) with Vinyl Reality.

woa virtualDJ took a big step
Wow, such a great idea to have instruments like this in vr. This can be a great way to learn new these things. Its honestly making want to buy a headset even more, to try my luck at learning the synthesizer
Its amazing looking at all this stuff in one video. What a nice view with that wonderful set. Imagine if that place was Real and you could see that planet from those windows while playing to this tracks. Magic.....
In VR you get to do exactly that ;) it's not reality, but it is as close as it can get to it.
I had never heard Nine Tease prior to this video, so hearing it fade in at 30:23 nearly took my breath away... Aural Imbalance is truly unique in being able to blast you off somewhere else. Massive mix, incredible that it was made in VR!
Appreciate the Feedback. Thank you! Nine Tease is a massive tune. Simon outdone himself with this one. Mixing it in was a delight. I'm planning in doing a Part two of this Mix with all the New Material Out on Spatial recs.
Keep it locked 👍
@@tripnotix I'll keep an eye out for it!
Thank you RUclips. I miss hearing sets like this. I like the newer stuff but the deep atmospheric stuff is gets me
'Idiosyncrasy' is such a strong way to start. Let that first kick hit you.
your mixes are really good dude, thanks for making my working hours so much better. I discovered old school atmospheric dnb rather recently and didn't know how much good stuff I was missing
Thank you! I appreciate that. I'm glad that you have discovered OG atmospheric dnb. It is a genre that was mostly forgotten since the heydays of the mid 90s to early 2000s. But in the last 2-3 years the genre started to gain lots of momentum again. Many new producers got interested in oldschool atmo dnb and some of the "old guard" also came back. It is an exciting time for atmospheric dnb in general, so you got into this gerne at the right time. :)
After this mix you're so far out you can't get back.
Thank you! "To infinity and beyond!" 🚀
@@tripnotix Thank you too for making the vid. Cool Idea to do it like this. I listen to it every now and then.
@@Ernthir I'm very glad to hear that and really appreciate the positive feedback! I'm thinking of doing another atmospheric dnb mix soon. Maybe even another Aural Imbalance special.
I’m usually a house head, and I just straight up ignored drum and bass for a while but this is absolutely amazing. Thank you, you’re a true artist.
Thank you for your kind words and feedback! Im glad my mix got you to appreciate drum and bass a bit more. :)
This is so dope, nice mix & the VR lounge is sick. I have to get this app.
ViRe (Vinyl Reality) is pretty much the best app for mixing music in VR. Once I've tried it, i never looked back. :)
This is absolutely nuts mate!!! Head melting for an old geezer to fathom!! 🤓
I'm glad you liked it and appreciate the positive feedback! Coming from you it's an honor. :)
Virtual Reality is great! I had to sell my 1200s due to lack of time and space years ago. But with ViRe (Vinyl Reality) you get almost the same functionality as with the real thing, but without sacrificing space. And as a bonus, it costs significantly less than a pair of 1200s and a mixer ;)
So if you'll get into VR, you can join our little flock of VR DJs. Or you can just visit our Twitch. We stream every Saturday on www.twitch.tv/vinylrealityradio
And you can also join our Discord discord.gg/tQ7cNR4
Cheers!
@@tripnotix vr djs??? what do you mean??? do tell, is it like a room but in vr and your mixing tunes and theres other people there too?
fuck man thatll be amazing if thats real, is that what it is?
@@os_oz In a way, yes. The DJ app (Vinyl Reality) itself doesn't support multiplayer but there are platforms like VRChat, where people organize VR raves. People come to dance into a virtual club, where a DJ (VR or IRL) is being shown on a big screen. We also got our own dedicated Vinyl Reality club in VRChat called The Nexus. We took the whole "DJ on a screen" concept a bit further and through some tinkering, your avatar and decks from the DJ app will be projected in real time on stage in the club. So it looks as if the DJ is really standing in the club without using a screen. It looks pretty convincing :)
@@tripnotix man that sounds awesome
Pure class!
Wow! Just wonderful. What a perfect way to spend an hour.....!
Absolut genial!Big up and respect!
Wow this is pretty amazing indeed! First time I've seen something like this. Futuristic stuff. Nice tracks and mix too. Do you have a Tracklisting? Cheers
Much appreciated! This is a DJ application for virtual reality called Vinyl Reality. If you have a PC based VR headset like Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, Valve Index or WMR, you can try it yourself :)
BTW, I've put the Tracklist in the description. ;)
@@tripnotix Cheers for your reply and tracklisting! That is wicked man, absolutely mind boggling you can do this with VR! Will defo. look into this :)
amazing set btw thanks much for sharing man
You're welcome! Thank you very much for the positive feedback and the sub. :)
THIS IS THE FUTURE
honestly one of the best sounding mixes I've heard, sounds amazing on my headphones, I want to get vr now lol
Thank you for the kind words! I'm humbled :)
Excellent 🙂👍🏾🎶
thank you ✌🏽🛰️🌌
elegant af
Jeah good music
30:20 Beautiful Groove! :)
Thanks mate! My favorite transition in this mix. :)
@@tripnotix The same for me, it's incredible.
This is great. Big ups.
this is so dope dude
huge
This is so sick. Hopefully I can have fun on this app without needing to know how to DJ
Thank you for the positive feedback!
I think you can have fun with Vinyl Reality even without having any DJ skills but i suggest you look at some vinyl mixing tutorials on YT and start practicing. You can also join the Vinyl Reality discord if you have any questions about the App.
Hi Mr. Tripnot sir. Is there anyway to get a digital copy anywhere of 'Nine Tease' that is played in your set. I absolutely love that track. I found it on Discogs but its in europe 5000 miles away. It would be nice if these tracks were more easily obtainable. I've been listening to this set over and over at work for months.
Thank you for those kind words :) I found a website that sells the EP in digital format. I'm not sure how legit it is though. To my knowledge, there was no official digital release for this EP.
Here is the link if you want to try it out: hardwax.com/31076/aural-imbalance/nine-tease-ep/
ой вей, а чё так можно??? подписываюсь
43:00
but no one dancing 😢 looks like the club just opened and not even tourists have entered, yet. However I reckon if this club is in space, it might take some time, eh. It's not like Berlin 2 AM in the morning, on a weekend.
Did he actuality mix this in VR? IS it a PC VR have or something?
Yes, i did mix this in VR. It's a software called Vinyl Reality - a fully functional turntable simulator. It's available for PCVR and Quest, though the quest version lacks features like custom environments, reactive lighting, Spout support and some other minor stuff. I use the PCVR version. If you have a VR capable PC then definitely get the PCVR version.
@@tripnotix I used to mix back in the day. I have a VR for PS5, but this is something I'm definitely looking into. Also, this mix is outstanding! Ty!
@@slackjaw4817 Thanks! I appreciate the Feedback 👍
This is a little bit about what it is.
I like such rhythms a lot, but I am looking for music in a purely instrumental style without vocals, vocal samples and voices, and it is not easy to find. I have a few Drum & Bass albums in my collection that are purely instrumental, but most of these rhythms, unfortunately, are combined with vocals, vocal inserts, et cetera. Great rhythms tainted by the human voice.
i think, vocals have their place in drum and bass as in any other genre. But the tricky part is to do it right. Too much focus on vocals in a DnB track is rather unnecessary. Drum and Bass is mostly instrumental in it's nature. But there are some tracks, where the vocals are done in such a pristine way that it makes the track perfect.
P.S.
This mix is purely instrumental. No vocals throughout the whole thing ;)
@@tripnotix Yes, this mix is instrumental and wonderfully done. That's why I listen to it so well!
