Remixed, Remastered, dan Reissued Music

 Remixed, Remastered, dan Reissued Music

Di Teknologi jaman sekarang there are many possibilities in how engineers and producers can go back to enhance or change the sound of old favorites, yang kadang bikin bingung antara istilah Remixed, Remastered, and Reissued karena hampir mirip. Sebenernya perlu juga sih ngeh tentang ini karena kita jadi ngeh apa yang sebenernya kita denger walau kadang kita BoMat alias bodo amat yang penting ngedengerin. Biasanya ini bisa di compare pada music music yang di release di iTunes kalo untuk segi suara dan content

Remix
Sebuah lagu bisa di beri label atau di katakan di "Remix" apa bila lagu nye ntu di bikin beda dari aslinye in terms of tempo, musik atau ngga penambahan musik atau vokal, Biasanya lagunya jadi lebih pendek (biasanya namanye Radio Edit atau Radio Remix/Mix ) atau jadi lebih panjang (Extended Remix/Mix). Remix biasanya bertujuan buat promosi,  new interpretation to suit radio play, club or DJ play,  kreatifitas bermusik or to reach a different audience. Biasanya di rubah musik nya jadi RnB, Rock, Ballad, Country, Accoustic  atau Club Version. Lagu lagu yang di remix untuk Club kadang jadi bagus atau kadang malah jadi awur awuran kaga jelas, kalo untuk Radio Remix biasanya lagunya di pake buat MV yang sebagian besar jadi lebih bagus dari aslinya... pas beli kasetnya eh ga tau nya versi nya beda ama yang di MV #pengsan.. ntu jaman kaset dulu ... wkwkwkwk


Remaster
Sebuah lagu bisa di katakan atau di beri label “Remastered,” biasanya lebih ke peningkatan kualitas dari lagu tersebut. Mekanisme nya ntu si Engineer nya pake Master aslinya trus ntu lagu di pecah dan di setting ulang, Remastering means they went back to the original tapes, and changed the mix a little, maybe changed the EQ/FX etc. Kalo lagu lagu jaman kuda ntu biasanya mereka ngambil dari versi Analog nya trus di convert ke Digital dan di acak acak ulang. Hasilnya ntu emang ngga jauh beda ama lagu aslinye tapi if you listen closely atau ngga emang udeh Khatam banget ama lagunya pasti bisa ngebedain. biasanya lebih ke pemecahan instrument yang di ubah ubah, contoh kaya suara petikan gitarnya jadi terdengar dominan atau suara bass nya jadi lebih nendang. Tujuan Remastered ini basically means the quality has been enhanced, but the original artistic intention of the recordingnye kaga berubah..

Ada kritik kalo versi Remastered untuk tahun 2000an untuk releasean iTunes ntu suaranye jadi lebih kenceng as it called " Loudness War" where the average volume of the recording is increased at the expense of clarity and dynamic range, yang bikin suaranye jadi lebih kenceng than an uncompressed version. Dan emang bener ntu fakta jelas ,,, coba deh buktiin pake lagu lagu releasean iTunes yg asli ama Remastered keluaran 2000an.

Reissue
Reiisued ini maksudnya di rilis ulang tau Re-Released, ngga  ada yang berubah dari segi musikalitas aslinya cuma ada ambahan Material kaya tambahan lagu baru, Packaging dan sampul baru ( inget ngga istilah " ah Lagu lama  Sampul Baru" wkwkwkwk) biasanya di releasean ini di kasih embel embel  Special Edition”, “Expanded Version atau "Deluxe Edition" dan juga biasanya di release ulang kalo ntu artis udah ngeluarin Greatest Hits, to commemorate a band or artist’s popularity, influence, or anniversary as well as to keep up with continuing demand for the album.

Mempelajari istilah ini bisa membantu kita untuk nentuin apa yang kita mao denger.. Banyak orang lebih milih untuk denger versi originalnya dari pada yang remix atau versi lain. Untuk ari pribadi, if I like a song then I would chase many versions of it, biasanya ngumpulin versi versinya, kadang ada yang lebih enak, lebih unik,  kadang ada yang jadi ancur ancuran ngga jelas. Whatever your preference semoga bisa ngebantu atau ngga bisa sedikit aware ama yang didengerin.

Terima Kasih sudah mampir ... Semoga bermanfaat.

Painting ... The Abduction of Psyche 2

Painting ... The Abduction of Psyche 2

Setelah gambar yang pertama yang jadi bahan eksperiment jadi ketagihan gambar klasik ... This time i want to sketch another Classic, same theme, The Abduction of Psyche.



It's Done ... In My own style ,,,


Jadi juga gambarnya.. You know, I Feel kind of a new sense in sketching while doing a classic, I can't tell but it's kind of new excitement and 
not to mention the result is better than my previous works. and I'm doing it with my own "style" which I intended that the sketch will look "Recent"
cause practically I couldn't do it as Classic as the Original hehehehe....




Terima Kasih sudah mampir ... Semoga bisa jadi inspirasi

Painting ...The Abduction of Psyche

The Abduction of Psyche 

Udah lama ngga nge post .. kali ini mo coba gambar masterpiece klasik ... dengan gaya ari sendiri

Artist: William Adolphe Bouguereau
France 1895





It's done!! walau ngga se " Classic" aslinya hehehe



Bouguereau. is one of my Idol, It's rarely that I draw a classic, karena selain beban moral takut malah lebih ancur juga karena tingkat kesulitannya juga tinggi. Ada beberapa kawan yg juga suggesting me to draw from a masterpiece but i said that i'm not ready yet hehehehe


The Idea of making this drawing is when I download album Greatest Love of All.. Pilihan lagunya bagus jadi terinspirasi buat gambar couple. I challenged myself to do it with a random songs. As you know kalo lagi gambar ari selalu pake musik, Nah kali ini ari bikin playlist yang rada rada berantakan. Lagu dengan genre dan penyanyi yang beragam. Intinya ari mau buktiin if these musics would affect me during the process of drawing.. Berikut ini 30 Playlist yang ari bikin buat nemenin gambar...

This playlist is the most random one that i ever create hahaha.. in kalo di dengerin beat nye ntu ancur ancuran beragam dari lagu dengan bermacam genre dan bahasa.. pas mulai gambar di lagu pertama ngga ngaruh tapi lama lama cekikikan karena pergantian tiap lagunya jomplang banget. The question is .. Did this playlist bother me? No it didn't. I'm still focus on my drawing although the songs were ups and downs kaga karu karuan. Gambarnya tetep lancar wkwkwkwk

Terima Kasih sudah mampir ... Semoga bisa jadi inspirasi

Rhoma Irama is one of Living Legend in Dangdut Music, One of the first Dangdut Singer yang ari denger, I remember it was sebelom ari sekolah ari udehan denger lagu lagu nya Rhoma.. As I can Say Dangdut is kind of Music that I grew up with,but I never ashamed to say it cause practically I listen other Genres too so I'm still catching up, My parents are a big fans of him, Emak pernah bilang kalo emak ama bapak nonton film Gitar Tua ampe 7 kali di bioskop back in 1977 (buseettt ), mpok ari yang selalu di bawa kalo nonton dan Film Gitar Tua is my mother's Fav, Setiap ada film itu di tipi pasti nonton dan pasti Mewek. Rhoma Irama's Songs are like Katalog Wajib yang harus di dengerin buat pecinta dangdut. Most of His songs are great and mostly the lyrics are taken from Al-Quran, as I quote " saya berdakwah dengan musik". Dan Dari segi musikalitas pun sangat mumpuni, sebagian besar lagu lagunya masih bisa di nikmati sepanjang masa as in Classic.

Kompilasi ini ari terinspirasi by one of Madona's Album called " The Immaculate Collection " which released on 1990
Album ini sebenernya Greatest Hits Madonna tapi isi lagunya remix version semua, ngga sesuai dengan judul nya " Immaculate " which I interpreted as   Innocent atau karya asli yang harus nya berisi lagu lagu as in their original Version. Untuk Album ini ari memasukkan lagu lagu lawas Rhoma in their Original Version, Versi Jadul nya as I heard in My childhood, It might sound old schooled but for me kaya bernostalgia ke jaman kecil. Walau cuma gitaran kentrang kentrong justru disitu lah letak seni nya like Listening to a Pure Dangdut as in Evolving from Minoritas sampai bisa di terima di semua kalangan. Seperti kalo denger The Beatles, ari sukanya denger versi yang aslinya musik yang dirilis pada tahun aslinya 

So enjoy  this Album. It's recommended one.. Terima kasih sudah mampir.. semoga menginspirasi
Salam 
Ari
