I absolutely love soundscapes, so this won my heart instantly, especially alongside the write up you offered in the description.

And I honestly could have listened to it for a lot lot longer, and in fact was quite disappointed when it finished.

I've only listened to a couple of your tracks so far, and really looking forward to to the rest!

Thanks for sharing :)

A beautiful and serene piece.
Reminds us to stop every now and then and smell the flowers along the way!
The reverb works well with ambient type of music. Well done brother Midi. Stay strong. :) -B

Really nice track. Love the ambience of water in the background. You captured the essence of a foggy forest perfectly :)

I'm so glad I grabbed a fresh cup of coffee for this one Dan. Beautiful work with the glass bow synth. It is not easy to work with an instrument that has such a dissonant sound, but you did so with remarkable results. My only complaint is that it wasn't another two to three minutes longer, haha. I loved it. Time to hit play again and finish that cup of coffee. This one proves that less sometimes can definitely be more. Well done. I hope all is well.

i'm happy you had a chance to check it bear. the glass bow was a little tricky - you have that right. glad if it was working for you. we need to give ourselves at least a moment of satisfaction for what has been achieved, because we are always pushing ahead, trying to get to the next level. glad you were digging it!

Very interesting tack here. I think this would work good in a film of some sort. Probably best in a horror or a thriller. Ambient tracks always put me in a mood that is indescribable. This one certainly didn't break the cycle. Nice work my friend!
DanGoldstein
DanGoldstein replied 22nd Feb 2015 - 11 years ago
i'm really happy it worked for you modnex. the feel for me is a bit ambiguous, and not by design. but maybe that turned out to be a plus. thanks for the positive review. best regards. Dan

Really strange yet peaceful sound. Could really feel like something was being painted onto my consciousness while listening. Props to you sir! The only thing I could say is to get a new water sample because its looping pretty hard lol.

But great work!

I love the glass bowed effect, I have worked with ambient sounds like this before and it makes the best dissonant effects. This is a great effort my friend and i tthoroughly enjoyed it.

thanks cru. it was devilish making that glass bow settle down. i think i used 5 EQ plug-ins! nevertheless - yea - i came to like that sound in this. thanks very much for the thumbs up. appreciate. regards. Dan

funny all the places that musical inspiration can come from...I suppose my enjoyment of this one results at least in part by the fact that nature, atmospheres, feelings, places tend to influence some of what I try to do myself...it paints the picture you describe very nicely Dan...nice clean mix...looks like Spiv has some further contributions to make so hope to get back for a listen later....very nicely done....keep on....Ed

DanGoldstein replied 21st Feb 2015 - 11 years ago
yes - I think you are very attentive to ambiance in your mixes. for me - these ambient tracks are an opportunity to learn the characteristics of some basic old school synths and get a few basic mixing solutions under my belt. if I have managed to speak to the art which is my inspiration I am really happy. thanks man.

Hey buddy! It's good to hear this WIP on looperman! I think you have some really cool concepts in this one. Apologies that I have not gotten to contribute to it as of yet. Hope to find some time today. You asked about the stereo/mono thing, and I guess I'll start by interpreting how I hear this one. Within, I definitely hear effects which are stereo in nature, and possibly stereo samples or synths (though I can't say for sure because of the effects). Beyond that, there is very little actual placement (panning) within the mix, which is I think where your question comes from. Even if you've used a stereo sound or plugin, everything will seem very centered. That doesn't mean it's mono, but I also wouldn't consider it a finished mix. With just this one track, that's all I can really say, and I realize it is "in progress" so don't take it too seriously. I will try to send you some contributions by the weekend! Great work so far.

i'm glad you had a chance to hear this version Pat. It was the first one to place the elements about where I want them. now, as you point out, the devil is in getting a final mix to be happy with. thanks. Dan

hi Dan. I really enjoyed this one. Very 'eastern' and 'contemplative' music. nice work. Alex

really fitting: I am in the middle of a foggy afternoon... unfortunately I am surrounded by concrete buildings and not by a forest, but your track worked as well.
Once more, your track serves perfectly the picture.
Ciao, Domenico
DanGoldstein
DanGoldstein replied 21st Feb 2015 - 11 years ago
hey Domenico. it would be interesting to express a fog shrouded concrete buildings as opposed to a forest. trying to think what would be different. I'm happy if you felt some connections between music and art. will continue to refine this one for a while. best regards - Dan

Different in many ways and that's a good thing...
Has a nice space to it, I'm not sure where the feel is
but the sounds work in the mix...

Solid piece of work...

Peace...TG.

i appreciate your review a lot. i am trying to think what I might do to clarify the feeling - perhaps lower the drum beat an octave - more reverb on it. it is striving for mystery, some sense of loss perhaps. thanks very much. Dan

Description : the other end of the scale from me, yep people, this is a ballad. its for all the people who have lost somebody long before their time was due,
i used my experience of tragic loss and how i hid my mental health issues that stemmed from it while writing it, its repetitive but has fresh verses
its to Matthias music Du Bist Nicht Mehr Hier almost the same title, He has suffered too that's why he wrote the music and dedicated it to his brother. i hope i have done it justice

He was a simple man. A high school teacher; wife, kids. He never thought in all his life that he'd end up alone in the middle of the Apocalypse, his family dead, doing his best to survive against all odds. The zombies have grown hungrier. More agressive. They have him trapped. There's nothing he can do now.

Description : I intentionally made this song minimalistic. The drums I spliced together from some drum loops I had, there's one other loop in the mix, the rest of the instruments are played by me (bass and synths). I used the excellent (and free) Cakewalk z3ta+ vst and the BBC Symphony vst. My intention was to create a very simple and dream like ambient track. Feel free to download or comment. Feedback is always welcome. Thanks.
