Description : I started out with just the warm mid-range strings section you hear toward the middle of the song when the piano gets sparse and sad, and I expanded on it from there. I really wanted that to be a theme throughout the song so I did my best to keep it going, even increasing the velocity of the notes in the track and adding a limiter on the master to get an even volume throughout the track. When it came in at just over 2:40, I felt it wasn't long enough to constitute an instrumental piece, so I started writing more string parts and just looped the piano sections, having recorded them in two tracks, one for treble and one for bass. I layered the strings to get a really big, climactic sound, and this is the end result. I don't say it very often, but I am really happy with it.

    Hey Marius9

    Mate checking this one out because Gramo left link in a review he did for me, so glad he did, this is one very emotional piece, always love tracks with piano and strings, which I try to use in most of my trance piece's, this has so much feelings coming out of it, which isn't always easy to achieve, but have to say you have done so excellently, stunning listen...MASSIVE fav and respect on this piece...Mosaic...

    Holy crap, I got an email saying someone reviewed a track of mine on this site and was so shocked I had to respond before going to bed! It's been years since I've been on here, talk about a blast from the past.

    Thanks for the kind words and respect, brother! Love to Neo (Gramo now?) for plugging my track after all this time. It's really awesome to know that something I created has stayed with someone and moved them in some way. I feel like I should have some achievement unlocked on my musical journey (Emotionally impacted someone through music- 200G)

    Seriously though, it's more touching than I have words for. Thank you so much for reviewing and letting me know it's moved you too!

    If you (or anyone else reading this) is interested to know what I've been up to musically the past couple years, I've moved my stuff from here to soundcloud in order to get around the mb limit per upload. My new stuff is really long...

    The piano right at the start was great, and so was Neos imagery. Very well composed, the strings were full of emotion, you've done a really good job on this song, I find it difficult to keep a changing melody going throughout a song, and some of the piano slides were absolutley stunning!

    Beautiful, just needs some rain effects over the top and a decent movie director and you've got the job!

    But in all seriousness, this is a beautiful track, and I'm really impressed with what you've done here. A faviroute from me.

    Ste :)

    I saw your comment on my forum post. Thank for your originality. This song is really nice on my ears. I can see it fitting in all kinds of different media. The piano seemed a bit loud at one point but nothing is perfect, and if something sounds perfect it loses some human quality which I love about unsigned artists. Keep it up, your tracks are really cool.

    This is really some great piano material (and strings too). The only critisism I could make is that there are places where the strings should 'back down' in volume so the piano can shine more.
    The strings always have harmonic stuff. If a real classical ensemble were to play this, the string players would control the dynamics in a softer way, since the piano (usually) has the more important material. Fantastic work though!

    Thanks for the input! It's hard to find someone who will even make a critisism, let alone take the time to put it down.

    I was actually going for the strings to take the louder section in this piece, because I think the piano is a little repetitive in all, and I more or less made to piece to showcase my string arrangements.

    I totally feel where you are coming from though. Thanks again for the input.

Description : This track is the first two sections of what will (hopefully) be a three-part piece essentially a suite. I am posting parts 1 and 2 because I think they are ready for feedback from Looperman members. Part 3 isnt done yet because it requires Human League style vocals from a singer with a distinct British accent. I have the melody and lyrics worked out. I sent a private message a while ago to a Looperman member who I think has the right voice for the job. But, havent had a response. Until I find a vocalist for it, I cant finish the piece. In any case, the total file size of the complete piece would be greater than the Looperman limit, so it will have to be split into parts anyway.

Parts 1 and 2, in fact the whole thing, were inspired by acapellas posted here on Looperman by Jacques Demers:

https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/6105/love-love-love-ououou-by-jacquesdemers-130bpm-dance-acapella

https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/6093/dont-keep-back-2-by-jacquesdemers-107bpm-hip-hop-acapella

https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/6091/dont-keep-your-love-away-from-me-by-jacquesdemers-107bpm-hip-hop-acapella

If you havent checked out Jacques tracks yet, you really should. He doesnt set them up as featured so it might be easy to miss them.

The harmony in Jacques acapellas sounded very Beatle-ish to me, and that made me want to try my hand at doing a George Martin style treatment. I remembered that ScottsCovers here on Looperman had mentioned an instrument called a Mellotron, which was used by the Beatles, the Moody Blues, Genesis, along with other groups of that era, so I decided to use a VST mellotron as the primary instrument for Parts 1 and 2.

The acapella in Part 2 was in a different key than the one used for Part 1, so I needed to find a chord progression in Part 1 that would modulate the key. Jacques gave me some advice on that, which you can see in the comments on his first acapella.

Part 1 has harp, mellotron flutes, clarinet, french horns, and my attempt at a Penny Lane type trumpet solo (but much simpler). Part 2 has a string ensemble, solo oboe and trumpet in unison, and some Daniel Langois type processed guitars. Both parts were recorded at 60 bpm, largely because thats where the acapellas seemed to sync best. However, I played the instrument tracks freestyle (rubato), so the tempo actually varies somewhat. Definitely not quantized!

There is a storyline behind this track. Part 1 is the blooming stage of a relationship. Part 2 is about the relationship in decline. Part 3, with vocals, will be about ending it.

Ive included the transition to Part 3 (which will be a more traditional synth pop section) and just a bit of the first verse backing instrumental so you can get an idea of how things are headed in the final part.

____________________

This songs is like a normal day in my life... as my brain point of view. The first part is the morning with strings, horns, clarinette and flute. It's a joyful and beautiful day ! Then, there's a sort of "bridge" between the morning part and the afternoon. Afternoon is awesome and chaotic at the same time, that's why I added dubstep in the middle of the song. Finally,the evening and the night are the second bridge and the end of this piece.

It's the first song I mix Orchestral and Dubstep.
Whole s music maker Jam with Movie Score 1/2/3 and Dubstep (i think it's Vol.2) loops.
Mix = Music Maker (Soundtrack Edition)
Final details = Music Studio

It's a Raw Mix because I really like this song and I want to make a better version ONLY with Music Maker Jam (without mix or whatever, execept for the sound quality).

Feel free to comment :)

Description : I created this track for the love I have for puppies. I love them. Everybody does. This day I went to this park nearby my colony and saw couple of them and thought of making something musically. So this is what i came up with. This time I haven't played much with FX or Technical aspects. Just pure simple & soft melodies. As it is unmixed & unfinished track, request you to boost the volume a little. Hope you all like it! Cheers! :)

Description : So, Ive been working on a new track. After my last song The Moments That Take Your Breath Away, I was filled with a sense of overwhelming pressure to live up to, and even exceed the expectations I held myself to. This led to a pretty bad creative block Im slowly but surely working myself out of. That is what this song is going to be about: me coming to terms with my own expectations and breaking free from my creative block.

The song itself is still very rough. I used an orchestral soundfont (big thanks to @GregVincey for pointing me in that direction) for the intro to give it an epic feel. For the most part, its going to be cinematic, telling a story. I imagine it dropping into experimental future bass; something different. Ill also be looking forward to having a singer with a strong voice to really nail the intensity and emotion, but Id rather finish the track first before going down that route.

Im looking forward to some constructive criticism.

*Please note: This is only a preview of the song, because its really not done yet. Ive had many variations of how this song should be like, but none I was particularly proud of. Theres more info in the description about the meaning behind the track and info on the track itself*

Description : This is an orchestral pop piece. I composed the notes in Noteflight and then imported the resulting MIDI into Mixcraft 6, where I assigned instruments and inserted percussion loops. Thank you to Glitchwall for Peppy Drums at 100 Bpm, Sinthetic Records for Acoustic Drumfill 1, MrTOfficial for Pop Them Drums, EpicRecord for Drum Kit - Relaxed Variation 6 Snare, rasputin1963 for Whirlwind Rise for Dance Breaks, and yappy for Stick Together 100Bpm Drum. I am just starting and I'm really interested in learning more, hopefully from you! About that collab request: if you would like to yank the MIDI files and play around with this, I'd be happy to upload them to Mediafire and send them to you. I can even give you sheet music, if that helps you out.
