December Snow - TheHumps

17th Nov 2009 13:46 - 16 years ago
Description : This is my very first attempt at doing a song using all Audition loops. I tried a classical song only because I've never been able to do this genre before. It builds up as it goes but for the most part it is a fairly relaxing song. Updated: remixed and remastered

If you have time take a listen and give theHumps some feedback.

Thanks for listening in Pat! This one is an early attempt at using loops. I guess the loops speak for themselves but it was fun to put it together.

Cheers!

It's fun to go back and listen to some of your older tunes, and this one is especially nice since it is the season :)

Absolutely beautifully constructed and orchestrated. It shows your compositional skills off nicely. A great tune to listen to with my hot chocolate tonight. Happy holidays Wayne. I hope all is well.

Hey Bear, Happy Holidays! One of my first attempt at using loops and is one of my most dl'd song.??? haha, oh well.

The beach has been fun and I've made many friends and met a bunch of musicians down here. It was 80 degrees the other day and this morn it's 38. brrrrrr, lol! In the 70's almost every day, not bad for winter weather and no shoveling snow!!

Thanks and take care Grandpa!

Play 2 now...

Well, I'd say that you achieved yer goal rather nicely here. I could see this being used for a jewelry ad or luxury car commercial. And I dunno why, but this kept making me wanna sing along to it. Then I remembered that car scene in Scary Movie 2 and then the song started reminding me of that one Vitamin C tune from about 10 years ago. Which prolly explains the singing along part, haha. Only tech-side thing I could suggest is if those mini-piano loops were done in midi to switch 'em out to a grand for certain parts (to help give 'em a richer quality, ya know). Otherwise, this was pretty nicely done. Cheers!

These were all Audition loops that came with the software. Sounds like Canon loops, fun to put together, hadn't used loops much when I did this. It has a nice holiday feel to it.

Happy Holidays Donnie!

Thanks for listening and the review.

The piano is an Audobe Audition loop, it came with my software when I purchased Audition 3. I have no idea where it is, I can look to find it. Contact me and I'll send it as soon as I find it.

Thanks, I appreciate the kind words! All the loops are from Adobe Audition 3, it came with 5,000 loops.

Very soothing Humps.Like you, most of my tracks use only limited loops, and i find it a bit tricky to use loops exclusively on a track, so wanted to say a job well done.
I played this one while I was doing a bit of my day-job work. emotional evocation coming through nicely.
Perhaps you'll need to do more in the genre...
I'll keep watch
Thanks

Hey ! This is a suceed for your first Classical song =D

I listen a lot of classical and I compose too (but I'm beginning).

I love your song because it remembers me a cute and so soft sleeping song for children. Or you know these musical box :P

So keep working :)

Thanks. I know it's a pretty simple song but it was very different using samples rather than recording all the instruments and dealing with all the issues of live recorded tracks. It was fun to do.

Nice bit of experimentation into orchestral arrangement - nice.

theHumps replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thanks jfw. It's kinda simple but it came out ok.

I just got new recording software,installed it and it won't start up and keeps crashing. Until tech support figures it out I tried to drag and drop the wav file samples into my old software and it worked. At least I have something to use thats different. Oh well.....

Description : This one is special. The Monzder Squadd is tired of seeing and hearing about all the awful things going on around the world, and in our own country. Our friend and fellow Splatterhouse ENT member Flat2Forge told us about some of the news from his side of the world, so we dedicate this one to him, and to Ukraine, and everywhere in the world where people are suffering. Hope you like it!

Not my lyrics.
The experiment began with asking GPT to write lyrics for a 3-minute house track; I ended up with way too much text, and I don't sing that fast. Next, I started coming up with melodies for the vocals, recorded the vocal parts, added instruments, and reworked the melodies, drum, and bass lines over and over again in an attempt to create a cohesive whole.
I made extensive use of JS: Vocoder (by Geraint Luff).

I hope you enjoy
