The Love You Left Behind By 12string-darkreine - ElectronBlue

12th Jun 2013 16:01 - 13 years ago
Description : NEW RE-MASTERED VERSION - I think this is is a fun song. I had the bare bones of a guitar rhythm that I liked and I sent it to darkreine to see if he could add to it. Well he went one better than that and came up with the melody and the lyrics and sang them and sent it back to me. I then recorded in the bass, violin, and electric guitar bits and synth. The only loops used is the drum loop and it's by Chrisbeats2012 All the rest are live instruments. Thanks Chrisbeats2012. Just a fun number that evolved as darkreine and I went along. Hope you all like it as much as we enjoyed creating it.

What a good song!
I think it could still be polished a bit, but this is good stuff!
I am always surprised by Kenny's voice: he should sing more.
Good work.

Thanks for your kind comments mrwolf. Yea the recordings kinda suffered between our daws. Kennys
magics and my Ableton seemed incompatible timing wise and sound wise. But we did our best lol. Almost lost the whole lot at one point when Ableton crashed and all the recordings vanished for some strange reason. Good job we made it just for fun. As people actually like it I might re master it and try to make it better.

Thank you both, 12 and Dark, for getting together and working on this track. Loving it. Agree fully with Brillbilly's comment, great song to seat dance to at a live gig. Lovely atmosphere running through and I cannot begin to tell you how much this reminds me of a past girlfriend

it's really neat when a collab flows as this one did. you can feel the positive energy and the natural flow of it. the strings are a nice touch and give it a nice lyrical quality. nice guitar work. always a big fan of bringing the voice up in the mix. always something more to do of course! nice work!

Cheers midisparks glad you enjoyed the vibe. I tried the track with and without the violins and it won hands down with.
Yea I always like the vocals upfront especially if the vocalist is good like darkreine. Glad you like the guitar. I was trying to capture the guy crying over his lost love. Don't know if that worked but it sounded good lol.

Glad you enjoyed it. Yea, we had great fun putting this one together apart from the trouble I had with my PC crashing and buggering up some of the recordings of the guitar and synth. I had to record them again and you can never quite get them the same lol.

A pleasant song! Nice performances from both of you! I still think this is a bit distorted, but it's still an enjoyable listen!

Thanks spivkirl glad you like it. We had fun doing it. I really enjoyed doing the bass line as I don't often get to do bass. We have re-mastered the song and it sounds way better. However, I have to wait 24hrs to upload it lol.

Cheers mate. darkreine and I did it together. Recorded all the instruments in live so that is why it has a live feel to it. Re-Mastered it as it is a bit bad.

Hey man, you're the real deal you know. When a part didn't fit, you just went off and played it again!!

Wayne's probably right about the mix, perhaps someone else would like to master it.

Thanks for the inspiration.

I re-mastered it again. I think it's a bit better. I think it got messed up swapping it between our DAW's

Since we have been discussing waveforms in the forums, might as well take a look at this one. : ) In my opinion, it looks a bit over compressed and sounds a bit flat. If you cut back on the compression you will start to hear the kick drum and snare start to pop out a bit more and the acoustic will sit better and well, everything else will stand out more. There isn't much dynamics here and it almost sound distorted. Now I'm just giving you some constructive criticism, don't hate me, lol!!

Cool track, it has everything in a track I love, acoustic guitars, cool lead fills, great singing and catchy beat. And it's a great collab as well so congrats on that too. I think you could get a smoother sounding mix, that's all!

Description : A bright, euphoric piano synth progression driven by a punchy kick drum. The sound design utilizes subtle modulation and saturation to give the chords a warm, festival-ready feel. Perfect for melodic or progressive house projects.
