Hey FR,
absolute cool Music you offer here,
everything sounds awesome together and is mixed professional as well, i know you appreciate suggestions here is my first the change around 4:00 (which is good) should get an burst by an uplifting snareroll bevor the Bassdrum comes in second, the fadeout at the end where you have a fantasic snareroll around 9:15 could stopp at once at this point with a cool fx or something else, thats only my opinion and no criticism anyway,Good work as usual, enjoyed the listen :)

Jumped in on harmor I see? Pretty nice,

I like the track and am always fond of most stuff with piano in it. It is pretty catch with the changing cut-offs on the filters. Thanks for sharing this with us FR and hope you do fine further

Thanks mate, sorry for the late reply, this comment somehow slipped by unnoticed until i just re upped the track. Yeah it was my first attempt with harmour and i only used the presets so i've still got much to learn about it.
Thanks for dropping by and leaving your thoughts.

Mellow sounding tune. It has potential you just need to expand on the melody you set down. The extras, the cool synth effects are awesome on this one. I hear aceed like tones slowly building to the climax , I hear some really good synth sounds. The climax is very interesting and it becomes very acid like this is a good one..keep at this one with some cool pads and you will have an ultimate winner.

Thanks man, sorry for the late reply. This one seems to have slipped through the net. Glad you like the acid part. I'm actually thinking of investing in a propper 303 as the FL TB404 isn't that great. Then i shall be making some propper acid sounds.
Cheers for dropping by and reviewing the track.

Hi FR

Nice groove, lovely build and such a nice way of punctuating the changes with some subtle crashes. Love the synth sounds you have and the piano is so infectious. Great job. Love it.

Hey Richie, long time no see. Glad to see you're still on the loop and thanks for stopping by and leaving your thoughts on this track. It was my first effort with a new synth so hopefully things will improve from here.

This is fun to listen to. I'm noticing that's the case with your tracks FR. Reading some of your replies, I gather this is more of an experimenting demo as you try to get a handle on your Harmour synth. It sounds good though.

And get a handle on this synth quickly cause I'm looking forward to remixing a song of yours when you put together a kit! :)

You're right. This was my first attempt with harmor and i only used the presets (still haven't got a scooby do what i'm doing with it yet but hopefully one day the penny will drop)
Anyway Renz, cheers for dropping in and commenting. The fact that some people enjoy it is the reason i do it.
Take it easy,

I'm enjoying listening, it's like a little mini mix! Personally I'm enjoying the second half much more, partly because it's nice to hear you experimenting with new synths. The patches you're using sound very cool! If you keep at it, you'll be making some amazing presets! I really didn't mind the kick drum in the first part, sounded okay on this system. I am just getting to that acid sound, and it's great, awesome tone there! Nice movement to the mix, and the mastering is pretty dynamic too. Thanks for making the soundtrack to my fruit salad! Cool track! Fave!

heyy! would you be down if i played around with this track and added some verses/vocals then check it out and see how you like it? all cred goes to you :)
FreeRadical
FreeRadical replied 31st May 2014 - 12 years ago
Sure, i'm always up for people laying down some vocals. If you want i can update it (turn it into one track, get rid of the vocal that's there already and most importantly, get rid of that annoying, clicky bass drum)
It would probably only take a few hours although i'm off to sleep soon so it probably wont be done until tomorrow.
I'm always looking out for singers so thanks for getting in touch.

So far i "think" my four downloads are legit (yeah right)
But i'm not happy with this. The bass drum on the first part is too clicky and theres stuff in the second part i don't like as well. To be honest i only posted it because i've got nothing better and i'm trying to move away from using loops all the time. I have synths now so there's no excuse.
Cheers for dropping in as always mate.

Feels good...I could see the floor jumping to this, I like the 32nds and 16th
notes you used in the synth pattern it took it upstairs...

It don't take much to make'm dance, I think the trick is not to beat them over
the head with sounds, but Beat Up their bodies with Rhythms that are
connected to sounds..Like you've done here...
If you get my Drift...
I may be wrong, so you can take this like a grain of salt...But it feel good..

Anyway Nice work...

Peace...TG.

FreeRadical replied 30th May 2014 - 12 years ago
Thanks mate. I just played it back and thought "I gotta change that kick drum" It sounds really clicky and i can't believe i've only just noticed it. Ah well back to the old drawing board.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving your thoughts.

This is such a wild ride, I see you sell yourself short on this track.....It's like getting 5 different songs in 1 download...that's crazy....
I'm not a trance kinda guy, but I do enjoy a lil house...and the first 2 mins had that house feel...then all of a sudden the second phase kicked in and I was hooked!

This is crazy....what goes on in your mind?

It's just something that i've thrown together today. I thought the intro sounded a bit empty and the end sounded kind of crowded. I just recently bought a load of synth plug ins and i've been trying to get to grips with them so i'm feeling like a total amature again as all of them are pretty complex. This was my first attempt with Harmour so i'm hoping it's onwards and upwards.
As for what goes on in my mind. I think that's best if it stays in my mind.
Glad you could find time to drop in and check out this track(s)

Description : New and kinda final version of track using acapella from JakeBuzzad.
Instrumental track recorded with Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboard, MPD and various percussion then vocals and movie samples added in cuebase (all samples taken from public domain movies from the 1940s-1960s.

It should now be in a half decent stereo mix - however, I am deaf in one ear and it makes it difficult to get the cross over right so feedback / comments more than welcome.

Thanks

Most of you know that I don't take myself seriously; I experiment, I just wing it, I don't care much about standards, and I don't care if the music industry takes me seriously, I'm just having fun. This is another one of those tracks where I turn everything upside down, an absurd story in a fast techno beat.

Only 1 sample used: Explosion-sfx by cbbk (2024).

Put on your dancing shoes and enjoy!

Description : 'On My Own' is a song about a man who is living the SIGMA Male mindset/grind set! A man always alone, so alone that only God is his his companion. This is deep house music, with Arabic sounds and a sweet Western vibe. Hope you enjoy it!

Description : I continue the hybrid procedure of creating music. This is a relatively recent song of mine that after the in DAW processing it was used as a prompt with certain guiding choices to AI machine. What was produced was di novo imported into the DAW to be blended with the original recording. It ended to a long music piece which I believe can be of interest to the listener. I hope you will enjoy this listen. I think Rocking Ambient describes well the genre.
