Ephemeral - Neomorpheus

Description : Depression and sadness can sometimes serve as motivation for creativity as in the case of this track. A few months back I went through a period of loosing a few friends and co-workers. Attended a few funerals and as a result found myself reflecting on life. One night I had the urge to try to transfer my feelings into music and this is what came out. Some baratone guitar accompanied by synth and accapella.
Final EDIT: Further tweaking on levels and a slight change up in the timimg of the choir section.

Description : Worked on this for a bit. Honestly, there was only so much I can think of in this beat. Probably should've sat it down for a bit, but eh.
If I turn out to find something else to add, you guys will get an update.

Description : An atmospheric and deeply emotional journey through the passage of time, fading memories and the distance that grows between who we were and who we've become. Blending ethereal soundscapes, haunting vocals and spacious reverb-drenched textures. The song explores the fragile nature of human connection and the introspection that comes with looking back.

Description : Vibey Hip-hop, experimenting with some distorted drums to give it a raw, in your face smash. Is it too much and should i tone it down or is it adding to the vibe of the track?

I know the place, as I'm wandering through it this moment.
This is a real beauty,
thx for sharing,
Peace.
Whatever your going through I hope and pray for everything to work out.
Take care.

Man, I think if I were you I would consider moving out of that house!
Take care and thanks for the comment Spiv.
Contemplating the "big" questions about life is profound. Most people don't think too deep about such things. I found when I had something similar happen and I did the same thing. Just to be able to display those emotions in the form of music is pretty special and therapeutic.
Totally enjoyed the track, honest and beautiful!

Thanks Wayne.
Your guitar is the best toned, I've ever heard (truly)...sadness is one of the biggest 'energy' to create unforgettable musics...you did it...hats off...
Respect and handshake, Danke
Thanks for the nice words bro.
didn't seem to be a big problem, never the less I understand...
Solid style of playing colourful and informative in emotion...
Hit the nail on the head with this one...
I like it....
Peace...TG.
Thanks for the listen and comment TG.
Thanks for your comments bro, they are much appreciated.
Thanks for the kind words DM.
^ The other enduring question "why?"
I like the "beauty in darkness" quote.
None of us can be sure of what's on the other side, or even if there is an "other" side at all. So, we just have to make the best of what time we have in this reality. Slow down, take a few moments to look at the living world around you and consider all the wonderful things there are to behold. Consider what is important to you. Make time for the ones you love and let them know how much they mean to you.
Later bro.
I am feeling the sadness here but more beauty, actually.
Good pad intro - sounds like it might be a trance track but no. However, I feel the drop into some tasty guitar playing feels slightly abrupt. Could be nice if you were to keep another perhaps subtle pad going underneath to ease that transition. So, a bit like what is happening when you reintroduce the pad around 1:35.
Some good gently strummed guitar chords and 0:52 tasty little fill and then some cool harmonics. You're moving around the neck quite tastefully in this one.
1:55 can I hear some distant choir voices?
I agree that this is probably a little too short. I'm thinking maybe add another minute or so.
In other Nomad-based news, I am putting finishing touches to perhaps my most badass ever track - a cover of Tool's exceptional 46&2 - only synths and drums, no guitar or other instrument playing from me on it. Look out for that being uploaded to a Looperman website near you in the next few days.
Congrats on this though I feel you can do a little more with it...
Funny thing about this track, when I first worked on it, it sounded way too dismal and dreary, too much of a downer so I shelved it. Not really the type of music I prefer. Then the other day I ran across it for the first time in several months and decided to give it a listen and was amazed that how different it sounded or felt to me. I guess originally my bummed out mood had a negative effect on my feelings toward it. I made some slight changes in arrangement and added the choir voices and that's it.
I named it "Ephemeral" which means brief, momentary, short lived. Not so much because the song is short but because in reality life is short. We all will someday take that last breath and wish we had more time.
Hey yeah, I'm excited by the news of this Tool cover your foretelling. My eyes are peeled for it bro.
this is some really fine production from you. Well written, solid played, nicely balanced... but too short!
definitely a rock territory for me, not ambient that much (more cinematic - rock band with orchestra kind of thing even). Too bad I can hear the mp3 format distortion on the orchestra tracks from 1:34. was it intentional?
I can remember some trance-style synth presets on your older metal song - here no difference (I can hear them on the intro section) but this particular combination still works really fine.
Somehow I find the chord progressions from your song sounding quite similar to the cello intro of 'Suffering' - a composition by Danielsson/Mozdzer/Fresco https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OE0Avd0uV1g
From my view and experience it seems like there are no sounds in depression at all. Actually it is the apparent and temporary state of absolute lack of creativity. I have forced myself to create and tried to put myself in apparent 'creative' situations to break that state many times over last few years. Partially that's why I am here now on looperman creating the tracks. I think 'depression' is a very profound statement (and ultimate state of being) in opposite to 'sadness' which is only a temporary mood. It may be only a play of words as well.
fine composition but too short!
best to you,
alex
Yeah on this track I tried some solo improvisation. I studied Jazz guitar for a while and really got into the flamenco styles with its varied rhythms, fingered harmonics and strong use of scales, modes and arpeggios. I never really applied it much or got good enough to play at speed. This track is slow enough for me hit most of the notes. Layered the guitar tracks with some focal low register. I dig that Baritone.
I tend to think there is not much difference between depression and sadness sometimes. My usage here was referencing sadness with the loss and emptiness associated with the deaths of friends and loved ones. Depression on the other hand set in when I maybe dwelled on the subject too long. Realizing time is fleeting and age is creeping.
Thanks for the nice words here Alex. Oh and I will try to clean up that distortion you mentioned.
Take care.
