Elephant - Orlando51

6th Nov 2015 02:24 - 10 years ago
Description : This time around I made a rare exception in terms of my usual way of doing things. In most cases I avoid using samples, loops or any other kind of pre-recorded material due to my strong preference of making music from scratch! Yet, here is one of those rare occasions where I decided to combine my recently composed and recorded material with some samples from Magix sound library. And here is the result...not necessarily cinematic...but you know..:)^^ Any comments appreciated!

great job on this. glad I was looking at you tracks, I would have missed this. I also use magix, mainly the vst, but the library also. this is a great flowing piece. love it. debated on referencing Harry Mancinni(spell) but has a faint hint of that.

This is a real power-house of a track, my friend! I have a real fondness for orchestral music, and this one is very well done. I can certainly imagine this track in an epic type movie. Really nice, Orlando!

Ciao,

Such a commanding intro!

Your layering here is impeccable. It reminds me of an oncoming storm. I like the introduction of so many different instruments, as if they're all just waiting in line to perform their hearts out.

Honestly, Orlando, I think of all of your work that I've heard, which is quite a few, by the way, this one might just be my favorite.

The mix/mastering is super clean, spacious and rich. Excellent work. Keep it up, my friend!

Take care.
Aaron.

Hello Aaron!

My apologies for the late reply...to be honest I really didn't expect such a favourable and generous review on this one, but ofcourse I'm absolutely grateful and happy for it!
Moreso cause I have really put quite some effort into it
and when it receives such degree of recognition from an artist who is very high on my admiration list then the feel is even more inspiring !

Big thank you, my friend.

Orlando51 replied 22nd Nov 2015 - 10 years ago
Eargasm?...haha...good one!^^ As first thank you so much for this enthusiastic feedback! It's difficult to explain how I made it to sound exactly like this, but I can tell you I have put alot of effort into it ! I'm using Samplitude as a DAW and as far as reverbs and other fx are in question, Izotope is my first choice. Unfortunately I haven't uploaded any loops yet, cause they're not my priority and my focus is predominantky on tracks, but yes...I work alot on strings arrangements and I dare to say they are almost a dominant fixture in my overall work...afteral you can check it out!
And now just a silly question...If this is truly so eargasmatic and magical as you say, don't you think it would have deserved a 'fav'?!^^ (joke)

Oh wow man this is outrageously awesome haha!

Now this is my type of music. I didn't know if there were many orchestral cinematic composers here on the loop but I think I might've just heard the best!

Phenomenal job I'm seriously blown away by this track!

A unique adventure I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Cinematic is a pretty broad genre. I can picture this in one of those nature videos. A herd of elephants grazing and meandering about in the grassland. Where it gets a bit more intense maybe the males are fighting for dominance, then it mellows out like the mother elephant tending her young. Excellent piece, you truly are a master painter with sound.
Orlando51
Orlando51 replied 21st Nov 2015 - 10 years ago
I agree about the genre and I admire your imagination !:)

Producing a cinematic music is hard and needs a lot of time for writing, thinking and testing. amd a mistake can make your project to be destroyed.
im not that good to criticism your project but i just think that bell sample (which is for Magix MM20 sound bank) repeats a lot
however i loved that mix, playing with volums made your song strange and beautiful
hats off...

Really like this track. It has an African feel to it as well ( I live in Durban South Africa) May I ask was this written for an African Elephant or an Indian Elephant....( both are good) Anyway.... great track well done look forward in hearing a few more in the same kind of style ....

Oh What have you done! The elephant in the room is smiling. Because he/she knows you have made a brilliant minimalist tune with awesome melody and percussion and arrangement and just the slightest touch of cinematic drama. The clarinets are brilliant at 2:13. it's at this point I realize I am the Elephant. And I should just enjoy the brilliance of the piece. Marimbas at 3:04 with a distant flute morphing into an oboe. Then a freaking Piano....
Awesome job. I loved this one Orlando...

Hey Steve!

Many many thanks for this friendly and generous feedback! I'm really glad you liked it! This one was originally also
intended as a kind of intermezzo thing (again), but as it often happens during the process the goal was becoming a bit more ambitious....and yes, I think I partly succeeded to pull some nice combinations out of it here and there and thanks alot for recognizing that .....

......and for the cruvations ofcourse !:)

Perfect for artists looking for an energetic record with room for catchy melodies, confident flows, and expressive songwriting. Whether it's a feel good anthem, a hustle driven record, or a late night Afro fusion vibe.
