Fin - Kurt

Description : I'm working on getting a good "soundtrack" sort of orchestral sound. This is the most complex piece that I've recorded thus far and getting all the themes and instruments in their best places has been a challenge. I'm still not completely happy with some of the brass sounds, but much of the rest of the orchestra sounds "real".
Comments are always welcome!

"and nobody listens to radios anywhere else these days!"

That's not true, sir. Broadcast radio is still a huge medium (although not as frequented by the public as in the 80s & 90s). Major record labels still spend thousands of dollars in air-time for their releases. If this was not so, you and I could release our works on the radio. But we cannot because the Majors still have that medium virtually on lockdown (thus making it expensive for the little guys to enter). An independent artist's friend is still college radio.

Really? You think people listen to radios at home or at worK? I guess I always think of radio as a car medium. I suppose that with many stations broadcasting on the internet that there is plenty of airplay out there... but if they are using the internet, there's really no need for the audio restrictions that broadcast radio has. (I guess I just hate those restrictions!) With any luck, the Majors will continue their steady decline, leaving room for the rest of us.

The overall composition is good. The 30-second right channel pan could be annoying to some listeners. Left channel is too low even for a pan simply because it is a near-30 second stretch. For that reason, this would not be radio-friendly (ever wondered why no song ever played on the radio began with a channel panned?). It would work well in a movie or stage theater, but the pan would still need to be shortened to like 10 seconds. Love the break.

Yeah, totally right. I've always liked panning - to an extent! - but it's one of those things that can get overused so easily that I think the standard these days is to NEVER use it. I suspect that "radio friendly" will one day be gone. Between the (necessary) equalization and massive compression, music with dynamics and color doesn't stand much of a chance in a car - and nobody listens to radios anywhere else these days!

Description : "All my songs are inspired by the work of the bands King and Jester and Kukryniksy. I wrote the lyrics for this track, and the music was created by artificial intelligence. The lyrics are original; I wrote them myself. I don't have the ability to create music for this track, but I hope you'll at least like the lyrics." I'm presenting these tracks to you in the form of a demo - this is what they might sound like; I want you to evaluate my lyrics.

Description : Mindway and The Monzder Squadd go together like peanut butter and jelly man. This is our 4th or 5th collab, I think, but for this one, Pnnywze wanted to blend his and Mindway's production styles and see what happens. This is what happens.

NOTE - Shared this one yesterday before I realized that Rob Fame's verse at the end was messed up. So I'm sharing it with Rob's part cut out until my brother fixes it tomorrow.
