Hi GoldenOokami

Sounds like "middleage music in a new style" to me, not realy like jazz.

Nice soundscape for me ears. Maybe the bass is a little to freaky for my opinion but thats not important.
It´s nice calm and relaxed, just right for a little daydream.

But who the heck is "the person", "the guy", "this guy"?
Sounds a bit like - it´s not allowed ta say his name -
Is he Lord Voldemort?????

If he´s so important for this track, why you dont tell us who he is?

stay tuned

Hello Joe. Appreciate your comment. As other loopers have named other genres the track could be, I decided to go with Fusion. As for my collab partner, I didn't post his name or anything because I wasn't sure if he wanted to be publicly named. But I fixed that, for he confirmed he indeed didn't mind. I appreciate you bringing that to my attention. Most people wouldn't care to question about this other "guy" for he could have been some big time record producer. Anyhow, I appreciate your words! And I'm sure Rosen would too.

hi Ookami, very nice and dynamic track! Good piano part (I wonder if it is just a loop or I can actually hear you playing?) bringing much harmonic clarity and 'stability' to the music. I think the bass-line is always a kind of a crutial factor in a jazz-genre music. That's why I do not see it really as a jazz track itself. I mean... maybe I would expect somehow a kind of a chord-changes clarity in the 16 bars structures here... but it appears for a moment when you intruduce the piano! For the most part it's a kind of a relaxing/new age indeed and fusion nice-music containing very interesting elements (nice mellow syhth solo line!). Even some folk flavors (acoustic guitar?). Nice ideas for music here and pretty creative track. Good work. Alex

Hi Alex. Thank you for your words. I originally played it, however I decided to just use Nexus with it's Piano function, make the pattern, and used that instead. I thought it was Jazz-like due to the percussion patterns that were used, however, I've come to the conclusion that since the other looper commenters said other genres, I'd list it as fusion. I appreciate it again!

It has all the Jazz elements Chord structure says it's something else...
Harmonic formulas are not there yet, a freaky sax doing counterpoint
punching those lines may do the trick...

Could almost go into the Celtic Jazz mode, some Bagpipe jazz kinda stuff.. :-)

Over all cool track...

Peace...TG.

Much appreciated Soundhound. I thought the drum patterns had that Jazz-like feel. But I decided to just go with Fusion as the genre. This is one of the most different styles I've made, but I appreciate your words nevertheless.

Really cool track, G.O. Little confused about the jazz genre, though. Has a nice 'new age' feel to it. Very well balanced on all instrument. Love the keys.

Cheers,
Scott

I appreciate it Scott. I suppose the percussion had that Jazz feeling to it, however I decided to put the genre as fusion. Other looper commenters have said other genres along with yours. Nevertheless, I appreciate your comment and your time to listen.

Really interesting track! I like it, but i just can join to the other posters before me, i feel the "tin can" drum is a bit annoying after a short time - too loud or/and a bit too "sharp" (on the whole, too dominant) - and a bit repetitive.
But cool one, after all!
Regards, traz

on Heartless by GoldenOokami
hey, very nice song. really interesting main theme that could be used as a cinematic soundtrack as well. I think the reso-filtered bassline (0:42)which sounds very metallic doesn't work quite well with the rest at least at the very moment you introduce it. Although there's many elements that sound even more metallic in this song... You could also change the drums at 3:00 - maybe they are just too repetitive throughout the track and seem to stand out from other instruments at times. That will give maybe some more live and flow to the track... hope its useful.
But anyway it is quite nicely done and I enjoyed your work. Alex

GoldenOokami replied 10th Oct 2014 - 11 years ago
I do appreciate your words. This is actually my 2nd attempt at making a Metal/Rap oriented track. It is tedious, and I feel this was mediocre of me to have done this, however...I figured friendly loopers would tell me what I could do to better myself for future purposes. Thank you again.

Danke, I appreciate your comment. I actually didn't use any VST this time. I made this track using my Yamaha Portable Grand DGX-200 keyboard. This is one of my most different tracks I believe, because of its simplicity, but nevertheless, it's still a proud product of mine.

Hey DjLunich. Working with you sounds like a fun plan. If you use FL Studios, you can send me the flp file, and that'd make it a hell of a lot easier. I'm glad you liked my work to the point you'd want me to remix one of your tracks. You can email me at GoldenOokami@Outlook.com to discuss this more in detail. Peace!

Hey Ookami

Mate you had me right from the start, love choir in tracks, try to use in my tracks when possible, love the bass when it comes in, personally would have liked to see a little harder kick then what you have here, I think it would work perfectly with the bass line, guessing would give the track a more deep house sound and feel, don't get me wrong still enjoying the listen, prob looking at as if I was doing the track lol...clarity and arrangement sounding great from my speakers here...Nice work matey...Fav...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...

Nice patient intro..when an intro runs over a minute I think it needs to cary some musical interest rather that just act as a long lead-in...this one does it very well....its real nice easy listening for a house mix (I dont have an extensive knowledge of the electronic genres..so I tend to just listen from a "Do I like the music" point of view)....good listening here Ookami..I can hear that you put a lot of thought into the compositional structure and it pays off....a big well done to you...keep doing it..I`ll be back to check out a few of your other tracks (notice you cover quite a few genres) when I find a bit of time (its hard to come by for me at present)....Ed

Nice intro but i like it even better when it gets going. That's an ace melody, nice bassline and good choice of pads. Like the way that it builds as it goes along and dig the choice of sounds as well. You've blended this all together really well and there's enough changes going on to keep it interesting.
Great track.

on Ashes -Remastered- by GoldenOokami
hi,
really nice work overall... but still I encourage you to find some better piano plugin - this could help this main modal progression of notes to correspond better with the bass, upper (and dark lower) strings, and saxophone melodic line in here. I am just suggest you to maybe experiment a bit, rework it and maybe to find some resonance of the piano progression... I mean some proper chords and bassline.
I have an impression that those layers clash sometimes along the track and there is no proper let's say 'proper chord progression' in there.
But still this is only my vision - the song sounds really nice so far and I am enjoying it a lot. Keep it up!

dope track man. i like your choice in instruments. sweet melodies too man. my only beef is wit the synth string/horns part? it sounds midi. maybe try mess around with attack times to get a more natural sound with it. maybe even try playing in your melodies with a keyboard or controller and not put every note perfectly the beat, that'll give it some real nice human characteristics (even if it is midi). vary velocities too. enough of my 2 cents. Peace

Really nice beat you got going there Monsieur.

It has a nice positive vibe/energy that I like. Nice melody too.

I have some issues with the kick. I think, it needs some calibration, so it sounds right.

I also think, you should just go for your dream instead of this: "I plan to go to college to be a professional music producer/musician."

I don't have any college degree and yet I managed to work for this mainstream radio station in my country as a Radio host: nrj.com and when I don't make music, I work with international business.

You can do, have or be anything you like, if you go for it and is passionate about it. It is all about do what you want and network with likeminded people. If people can use what you have, then they will want you to work with them.

I will suggest you research business mindsets. Read/listen to the book Robert Kiyosaki - Rich dad poor dad. It will be a good start.

And watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0bkREYS4VY

And this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMwl_FNYZFc

Those that make it, go for it 100% and keep going, even if they fall several times. Every time you fall, you will get that much stronger.

Very few people dream big and chase their dreams. They play it safe and get nowhere.

I appreciate the comments. And also, I actually do plan to be a music major. I am considering something to the point of a Music Teacher or Music Theory, or something to that degree. I'm also thinking about minoring in science, mostly astronomy. I do appreciate the help and encouragement though. Ive checked out the videos, and it's changed my perspective a lot. Thanks!
