Darkwave Experiment Pt 2 - BadNode

17th Apr 2021 02:57 - 5 years ago
Description : Honestly, I was hesitant to upload this.. I've been unhappy with it since I started working on. I've sort of hit a wall with it after leaving it and coming back. Was going for a dark, cinematic, trance-y sort of vibe, but I think I just got bored, hopefully will revisit it in the future. Would love to have some other ears on it and to get some feed back, what ya think ect. Again still learning, looking to grow.
Thanks for the listen,
-B

Hey, my favourite part of this track is when it gets into full swing around the 1:20 mark. Are you planning to expand on this track? If so, I'd definitely work more with that section as it's a shame it only lasts about 30 seconds. So I guess my only complaint with it is I think the track should be longer :) Maybe a bit more emphasis on the bass as well, but overall really good work, well done!

This is quite exciting! Has a very good sound to it. You put a lot of effort into it. I can almost picture this in a movie. Well done!

This track has a goth club thing going on. If it were something I was working on I'd work it into a darkwave techno kind of thing. I do a lot of dark music, so naturally that's what I would do. If that's not your shtick you could push it into the cinematic realm by making it more dramatic & bombastic. Something like death star music from star wars. This track's got a lot of potential, so you're going the right direction.

nice intro i really liked that vocal "are you here to kill me" where do you get that from i always find it hard to get good vocs like that. I also liked the outro very much with the bells reminded me of the Music Pocket Watch From the film FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNFaZjNSvig from 0.32 the synth take over and dominates the track i find i too often overdo my tracks its hard to keep mine stripped down. ive been away from looperman too long running out of inspiration i think its better to do what pleases me and not be running in the pack. Best regard Robbie.

Thanks! It hadn't even occurred to me how similar those sounded until you pointed it out! I love that movie and know that scene well, so that's great that it made you think of that. Thanks for the feedback and listen Robbie!

Description : A bright, euphoric piano synth progression driven by a punchy kick drum. The sound design utilizes subtle modulation and saturation to give the chords a warm, festival-ready feel. Perfect for melodic or progressive house projects.
