Listen To My Curse Chill Out Song By AlleyCatLuca At Looperman.com

Dope track. Nearly hit the dl to start writing. I didn't because I thought the drums where a bit fast for this arrangement. That's just my personal opinion as an artist though. The chords are very captivating and I immediately wanted to tell a story. Love to hear it again after you add the melody. I see some have suggested piano, strings ECT. I think a subtle violin should do the trick.

Great job, I enjoyed the listen.

very cool tracky...

it could be a trailer or soundtrack music for a film based on the true, but sad story...it's heartfelt and generates much feelings til listening...my pc is old so I can't hear properly but is that a guitar on the begining main line?

great job, handshake, Danke

It certainly creates a mood. Some things can be simple and short. It is what it is. A haiku, for example. Should you extend it into a sonnet? Well, then it becomes a different thing. I think it can exist as a short piece - AND you can try to extend it as was suggested in another comment and see what happens. But don't lose the short piece - it's a nice moment.

This is SO annoying. I had written you a very long comment and then for some strange reason, my browser "reloaded the page because it was using significant memory" and I lost everything. I'm not going to recreate my full comment. Here's the short version.

I really like this track. Sounded very "rich".

Ronabo is really good. I'd be very interested in hearing what he comes up with with your track.

But, and here I'm going to be blunt, I think you've given up to easily trying to extend the track. It has great promise. I know the situation you are in very well because I find it really hard to figure out a new section and new chord progression once I've mentally locked into a track and spent a lot of time getting it to sound right. It's a habit I'm trying to break, but it's hard. I'm forcing myself to work on creating tracks with more varied structure.

I think your track is a really good start and that it deserves a bit more effort to extend it. If you can do something that sounds this good, you can take it the next step.

Step back from the track for a few days, then give it 30 minutes of effort to see what chord sequence would work as the next section. I put the last 4 bars of the track on loop/repeat, but extend the repeat area out at least 8 to 16 bars beyond the end of the track. Then, I just activate a new instrument track with a piano instrument and fiddle around experimenting with chords until I find the first chord that works with the last chord of the first section. That's your starting point for the new section.

If I knew more about music theory and song structure I'd probably know what chords would work, but I don't so I have to figure it out by experimentation. Sometimes it works. Sometimes it doesn't. But it's worth making the effort. I think it gets easier the more you try.

Regards,

Eric

Nice Vibe. I would love to lay some piano and strings on this. I love the chords.
