Description : A very melancholy, kinda dub, slightly cinematic song I've been working on. Excuse the vocals, I have terrible manflu.
Thanks to OskepUs, whose "Tum Tututum Tututum Tum" drum loop I greedily usurped and modified.

This is a track I'm particularly proud of. I was in a really bad way and creating it helped me a lot.

It's inspired by the Chateau d'If from Count of Monte Cristo.

Thank you for you lovely comments.

hello. I just had a chance to listen to your tracks and I like this one probably the most. Vocals are perfectly placed and I find the arrangement very corresponding. The only thing I would change is a drum loop at 2:37. Instead of dropping it I would continue playing it along the following 2 bars. Just my opinion.
I really enjoyed background sounds and gentle strings. It is a kind of atmosphere that is always reminding me somehow of 'Seascape' by Robert Rich https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3SOAHSwZ3g
Congratsulations

I feel as your voice, and way you record yourself, you're like a male "Lana Del Rey" Hey man keep it up. Look up some mastering and balance techniques and try to showcase your work, I'm sure you'll get attention

Thank you for the feedback. I always find it difficult to work with my own vocals, it always sounds off to me. The strings were the last part that I added just to "lift" the track. Glad you like it :)
Danke

Yeah...cool number...first I thought the drum will disturb the joy but than it became to function...good choice that's dubstepish sound...

Handshake, Danke

I'm glad that it worked for you. I was a little worried about it myself. I haven't really worked with dubstep sounds before, so I'm relieved to hear that it didn't alienate you.

Nice track. I found it very absorbing. I also liked that way that synth worked within the drum loop. Good stuff

Thank you very much. I always worry about overdoing the reverb, so I was hoping the drums could keep the mix a little more grounded. Now I can sleep at night :p

This time we used 4 great loops from Kheli, iiejii, Antronical & Sixteenonthebeat.

Description : I used some new "Anthem" pickups from L.R. Baggs on my Martin acoustic to see how it performed, and it definitely beat my expectations. Captured the sound perfectly as I needed.

Anyhoo, this song is almost a prayer, hence the repetitiveness of the verses. As Christians, we believe that God will one day return and take away every suffering and all evil for good; in that regard, this song is almost one of waiting too. Very simple, with vocal harmonies and whatnot. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did making it. Made in 13 hours.

Someone else wrote the words, I was just inspired to use them. I only added the "Yeah" and "Amen."

Description : This is a track off of one of my EP's I dropped last year. It is based on True events. Sometimes when people finally take a second in life to slow down and breathe in..... The oxygen is deflated and it's too late. Take your time people, because time is what differs a good decision over a bad one. Life is precious!

Description : So a guy buys a nice guitar at a pawn shop but returns it a few days later after waking from a sound sleep to hear it playing by itself. When he tells of his experience he is shocked to learn the owner had actually died while playing it. Is it fantasy or truth? Is the guitar in this track that very same guitar? Its all part of the mystery and fun of Halloween !
EDIT: modified ending to a deeper voice
