In Paradise - StephenPotter

31st Jan 2010 09:54 - 16 years ago
Description : Another piece of drum and bass, this time its on FL studio 8, because i deleted FL9 because it took up a lot of space, and it wasnt as good anyway.

The strings and guitars are both native instruments kore player, and the main drum line is actually a loop I downloaded from fl's downloadable content.

This song is not finished yet, but i hope to get it finished pretty quickly, but im stuck at the moment as i cant think of a decent bridge...

I feel the same about sony acid 7 as you do about fl 9, I prefer acid 6 because half of my vstis (both free and purchased) will not work on 7, but I keep 7 because some vstis that didn't work on 6 work on 7 lol.

Your track is great. You probably noticed that I went to your first track (the last on your list) two songs ago and have since been working up your list. I want to get some idea of your development process. So far I have to say I'm impressed. You apear to have a natural ear for combining sounds into a very interesting and coherent whole.

Looking forward to the next track.

Peace Friend

But yeah, fair enough, I can see why you've started at the bottom and gone up, I've just been clicking on random stuff :P

Thanks for the review!

hey stephen, i thought i would respond immediatly because it seems like you want to know about the acapella and song. hmm it would be interesting to see what would happen if you combined the two. if it is 85 tempo, in theory it should workk, but i found that basically my flows are so strange that sometimes it doesn't work even if the beat is on time. so if you want to give it a go that chill, but i think you should try it, send me it, and if it doesn't sound that great to us, let me try, cause i've done a lot of acapella to beat matching work using garageband. (a cheap studio program) and i am pretty good at it. i like what you did with this one definitly a paradisey (is that a word?) sort of beat. i love dnb and this is pretty well done! nice work

Alright, I'll get started then! I think I can match the vocals with the melody, only problem now is the cpu overloads on FL. Damn pads :)

And paradisey is now officaly a word :D

Thanks for the review!

this is a sick DnB both relaxing and in your face with drum n bass attacks.

then u whipped a out some sick midi playing,u got it going on with this track a fav for sure

The vst is actually a free one called Kore player, I reccomend downloading it, but check the space on your hard drive. The only downside to it is that it can be really cpu intensive at times.

Thanks for the second fav!

again nice intro m8.
the main synth line is overly loud and drowning out the rest of the tune,its nice just needs the levels sorting out on it.
is there a bassline for this? as its either too low or non exsistant.

There is a bassline, but yeah it is kind of quiet, you can hear it just before the guitars come in.. If you try really hard to hear it :)

Thanks for the review!

your tune is great mate i like the overall melodies and the start a good tune now here comes a very tiny but. your drum loops are low that is the only problem i keep saying it to everyone that i review cos this minor prob seems to occurr in most tunes i have reviewd. so just put a bit of punch in your drum loops mate it will sound good but thats it do that and your tune becomes top class material i will check back when it is finished ok cos i like it man well done

Thanks for the review. Sorry i took so long to reply.. been occupied with other things. Anyhow, I know what your talking about with the drums, I still havent got the whole idea of volume control and mastering on FL. But hey, I havent took my music GCSE yet, in fact I havent even started it, and by the end of it, I should be better.

Also, Do you think I may need vocals with this?

I'm very lucky to be able to work with such talented people, and whenever I need them, they always answer the call. Rita, you deserve so much more. Thank you for being such a solid collaborator over the years. And Ci, thank you for being the spark that lit us on fire.

Description : Hmm, it's a very stressful week to wait for some biopsy results and then I made a decision - let's do something.
Surfing through the acapellas on Looperman I found quite interesting vocal track by RayKoefoed ( it's a 16 years old file ). Well, loved the lyrics either :)
Here we are - an electronic dance type track with a punk style singing.
The first time I was doing something like this:) :) :)
Chill out guys.

And here it is a "nightingale" singing in an unknown language (Aalle Elvish) in a fairytale world... Many thanks to Lesperado and Elven voice for this wonderful acapella ! (Please see lyrics in English).
This track, which I had uploaded last year too, required some extensive retouching. I hope you like it !
