The Parallax View - BullittVolante

7th Jun 2025 15:09 - 1 year ago
Description : I wrote the main synth line using the Surge vst synth (a great free vst), I kept this simple and repetitive and built the rest of the song around it, adding drums, hand claps and a couple of pads which I'd added effects to. Then added my own synth parts using the PolyKB vst synth, five in total. Not sure what type of film this would be best suited to? Sci Fi, thriller, action? The title is taken from a 1974 movie of the same name (a thriller). Feel free to download or comment.

Really nice cinematic vibe to this one...it would work really well in sci fi, on a large spaceship being stalked by aliens...it has that intense vibe to it. Great use of synths and the drums are really well done. I enjoyed this one immensely. Thanks for sharing with all of us.

This is very cool, the dark sounds mesh well with the rhythm and the build-up is great!

A criminal in leather, hitting the road on a motorbike, full pelt, on the run - that's what I saw in my head when I heard this - a great, thought-provoking composition

Hi there. Yes cool track. I'd say it would work very well with any of the genres you mention. I like Surge too. I only have free synrhs, others I like are TAL Noisemaker (basic but nice analogue sound), Podolski by U-He, and Massive. Cheers Zoot.

Hi, thanks for your feedback, much appreciated. Glad you liked the track. Yeah, Surge is a great synth. I had Noisemaker years ago, I should download it again really. The U-He synths are awesome as well.

Thanks also for the Surge VST heads up, btw

No problem. I really like the Surge vst, it's packed full of decent presets if you're not into manipulating sounds too much. It's definately worth getting and it's totally free!

This has quite a retro feel to it, which is nice to hear. Really liked the short orchestral burst at around the 2:10ish mark as well. Was kinda hoping for more of that - it really suits the track. Had to give it another listen instead :)

Hi, thanks for your feedback. It's funny cos I was originally thinking of adding more of the orchestra element to the track but decided not to. Glad you liked the track. Thanks.

I like the way your cinematic track expresses action and I mean (mainly) the distinct dynamics although there are also various interesting elements in here!!! Very well done my friend !! Cheersssssss !

Hi, Thanks for your comment. Glad you like the track. I had a certain idea in my head when I was writing it, which I hope comes through in the music?

I am writing while I am listening...so what a bass! Great opening.
The pause was to the point and then comes the real thing...things happen fast, scenes on after another, very interesting, rich listen with lots of suspense and action..Very well done BullittVolante
Best regards, Anthony

Hello BullittVolante, nice track ..... I see a sci-fi type thriller with this track, something like the Terminator or Blade Runner. Its a well done piece of work my friend.

Hi Glenn, thanks for leaving feedback, much appreciated. Yeah, I was thinking it was best suited to a sci-fi type film. Sometimes when you're writing something cinematic, you have an idea of what genre of film it would suit best. Thanks again.

Description : I continue the hybrid procedure of creating music. This is a relatively recent song of mine that after the in DAW processing it was used as a prompt with certain guiding choices to AI machine. What was produced was di novo imported into the DAW to be blended with the original recording. It ended to a long music piece which I believe can be of interest to the listener. I hope you will enjoy this listen. I think Rocking Ambient describes well the genre.
