The Light - Squidwelder

Description : Thanks to everyone at Looperman for the awesome samples. AT&T again for the non-sequitor vocals. Also, yay for having enough money to buy Acid 6.
This track has gone through a number of metamorphoses, and I'm proud of where it is now. It sounds a lot more professional than when I originally composed it. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. And remember, don't look away from the light.

EDIT: I have played with plugins and had a severe epiphany. Let the laser show begin.
EDIT(again): Evolving further into a cleaner form now.

this is a good listen. i like what ya did with this track. it seems some of the parts of the song get a lil distorted. alot of the times when your using effects it can alter (as in decrease or increase) your volume levels. if ya wanna get around this go to the track that seems to start clipping, right click on the track. go to insert/remove envelope. another little thing will pop up. click on volume and a purple line will come up. now you can double click on the line in several places to lower the volume where it increases due to the added effects. sorry to make it so long.

Thanks for the tip. I've noticed that distortion problem in a few places, but wasn't too sure about how to go about fixing it. I'll certainly give that a go.

I think i want to get on the floor with knees bent and arms thrashing in the air in a ghostly manner while listening to this track...dancing in a arena of a club that is pitch black except for one lazer light beam scanning the crowd...

only one suggesting to this track...run the vocal sample through a vocoder effect...try adding Orange or DC Vocoder to your Vst plugin on your Acid and it will take your music to a new level

Wow. Uh... Thanks! Quite the rave review (no pun intended... maybe), I certainly wasn't expecting that. I'll play with that a little bit and see if I like it. Thanks for the suggestion and the review!

Description : Shorten My Days is a deeply personal prayer about examining the true intentions behind our relationship with God. It wrestles with the uncomfortable question of whether we seek Him because we genuinely love Him, or because of what we want from Him and the world around us. It is a plea for God to strip away selfish motives, sustain us through life's battles, and teach us to live in a way that brings glory to His name.
Guitar: Nameless.

Description : 'Main Barbaad Ho Gaya' means 'I got destroyed in loving you'. I had created this track last year. The vocals are AI. However the music and the tune is mine. Hope you enjoy this tragic love track. I was inspired by the Bollywood movie 'Saiyaara' when creating this track.

This started as a bandlab beat called Gridlock. Just mentioning in case someone wants to go get a clean version of the main backing track.
