Piece Of My Soul - RayKoefoed

16th Jul 2008 13:04 - 18 years ago
Description : Here is my first finished song. I hope you enjoy it!

I was planning on putting lyrics to it but quickly realized that singing isn't as easy as I had expected. It is somewhat of a metal song with a dance beat. I would appreciate any constructive criticism or opinions that you guys are willing to offer on it. Special thanks to Bilbozo and Rei4real for the guitar loops I used in it.

Wow. It starts out real slow and then "bam" hits you in the ear. Excellent mix. It sounds like it could be in a horror movie.

Thanks a lot peppermint. I am glad you liked it. It is a clear case of beginner's luck I think, this was my first track I finished and posted and has always been the one people seem to like the most.

One this site you find some amazing talent. Yours is definitely included in that description. I enjoyed this track from beginning to end. This track took me to that place I go when I listen to music. Thankx for the ride.

If this is your first song I'd love to hear your next ten...And hopefully I will ... Talent for detail is evident ... I don't feel I am at a talent level where I can critique anyone about anything ...

But if this track were mine ... I wouldn't change what you have but, I would add a hit and/or a 4 bar roll here and there to stretch it the track out

Thanks very much for the review Bmack. I think that is good advice and I agree. I do need to work on changing up drums a little, adding rolls and such.

Nice song, it has an evil sort of touch, good sound and loops. Out of 10, I'd give it an 8. Also--- did you make the majority of the loops? Because they sound awesome.
Either way, it's about a hundred times better than my first song (and only, so far).

Thanks Zalg. I appreciate such a high rating on your scale. I pretty much expected my first posted song to be a humbling learning experience for me, so I am so glad people actually even like it. Yes, other then the 2 guitar loops from here that I used, I composed the rest.

Wow... This is awesome.

Great sense of structure, great mix, too. The ONLY thing I'd do differently would be to bring the bass up a bit in the mix, and play lower notes (if that's an option to you).

Keep up the good work. :)

Thank you for the review Matney.

I am glad you said that about the bass, and I totaly agree. As I have been trying to teach myself to make decent sounding music, I would create a short sample and record it to CD and see how it sounded on a couple different stereos. It always seemed the bass was just overwhelming so I knew I should lower it below what I thought it should sound like, but in the end I realize that I have over compensated. Thank you for saying so, because I know I am not the only one that hears that now.

The ambient track I finished tonight. Got some ideas just watching a movie.
I used a tiny fragment from a Paperkup's track - Bits of a piece.

Description : This is hardcore hip hop. Very Dr DRE, Lil Uzi Vert, Nicki Minaj style with a euro dance vibe /feel and with a hip hop beat. Lot's of bass in the track too. Hope you enjoy my new rap track. I have edited the previous track since I am allowed only 1 upload per day here. This is the final mastered version. The previous version had mastering problems which I have adjusted here.
