Thanks INFLOW for commwnting on my pop music track.
I though about what you said about the base so edited it a little.
But I didn't realise the original track would be deleted and I'd have to post again so if you look in please don't think I'm beng rude deleting your comment ... that wasn't supposed to happen.
I considered you advice to be good and screwed up!
It's back now so thanks.
This is probably one of the most original and unique songs I've ever heard...I really enjoy what you did with this. If you ever offer the acappella, I'll be on that day 0, lol. Good job
Awesome to hear man :D
really nice to hear that you like it,
what do you mean about the acapella? do you want a version with only the vocals? if so I can make and send u one if u like no problem, or maybe I'll upload it here for fun, its all good.
What the hell was that?
What is it?
It's big it's colourful it's incredibly powerful and highly charged but what the hell is it?
It's original is what it is.
It's all yours.
Great listening.
Fun mad sound.
More please.
The intro alone forecasts something really unique and the continuation only proves the case. Very creative piece of music which successfully combines different elements. Splendid
track!
Like that opening vox. Agree with Kama, really original. Never heard of metal mixed with pop. It kind of works. The vox is what really keeps it going because it has that pop flavor to it and is very unique. Synth is cray. lol Like it. peace
Has a highland sound when first starts to me, different sounding piece but in a seriously good way, love the vocals, great effects on the vocals, so different again but captivating, something special about this piece mate...Everything sounds like it is all in the right place, making for a very impressive listen...Wish it was longer, but no matter, will have another listen before leaving the track...FV...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...
Cool track...Still needs a little somum,somum to take out of
that single dimension, never the less it has lots of potential...
Maybe some other voices, on a different time groove not to far
off the wall but harmonically tight...Got a good mix there...
At this point it's something little that will bump it up...
Something really good going on here.
Brings to my mind Laurie Anderson and Eno.
I can't give any in depth technical advice other than listen to promenade2239.
I wish you all the best with your album.
fantastic unique sound. great ideas. really digging this. that bass sound has a neat scraggly tail. those alien girls are hot! brilliant concept and really fun to listen to! congrats!
hi again and thanks a lot for the reply! really good to hear the updates. I love what you did!
also I checked the vocaloid and this is some cool software. I was using a lot of Ivona 'text to speech' synth but never ever expected that vocaloid singing thing sounded that good. you have used it very well, I really like the little counter-melody work at places.
there are still some elements in the background (for instance: synth at 1:05) that in my opinion will require a little bit of work, maybe simply by adding straight chord progressions. to me all tracks of your song are actually playing very similar rhythm pattern... so it is a 'minimal approach' in a way and that's fine - I like your vision.
as for a 'proper song' thought: I need to hear much more powerful instrumental section that might balance somehow the long repetitive vocal passages here. your tune sounds to me like it is not that enough 'structured' so far but of course it is just the way of how I picture the eventual further development of it... will you be reworking this again by chance? if so I can always try to help you by adding something to this project...
Hey good to hear from you again!
First of all of course thanks that u like it!
I never really heard of ivona text to speach, but Maybe I will check it out later, sounds a bit interesting, since I love that kinda stuff to work with.
this track was the first timime I actually used Vocaloid and a Vocoder Over the vocaloid, its a pretty awesome tool I noticed.
I'm not sure what sound you mean at 1:05, I am guessing you mean 1:12 maybe?
Anyhoo my Tracks are usually inspired by daft punk, and usually make repetitive tracks, this was not meant as a 'proper song' actually, but I can understand why you say that because of the small instrumental breaks I put it, I purely did that to fill up the song a bit with only instruments and no vocals.
I wasn't planning on changing this song again, but if you want you can try to add stuff, I am kinda curious what kinda stuff you would do with it.
the song is free to download as you know, the BPM is 160 and I use the measure 3/4 :D hope to hear from you again!
hi. I really like your vision but somehow I find the vocals not present and articulated enough. maybe it's only because I am listening on headphones now... I can't understand the words, can you post the lyrics sometime? I noticed many people on here do not even bother to do that. I think you might even consider introducing other layers on the second section of the track, it can help breaking the 'repetitivity'. repetitive music is powerful as well but I say that because your production sounds more like a proper 'song' to me.
You have a good ear.
To be honest, I listened back to the song and was deeply dissapointed with the vocals, it doesnt sound how I want them to sound, I am well aware of that and fixing what I can in a frew minutes after writing this.
Usually I write lyrics on this site on my tracks, but had the feeling that most people didnt even notice I did, so I just skipped it this time, but I can write them no problem (though they usually dont make any sence, that is how I work :p)
Also the reason you cant make out the words is, because I usually use VOCALOID to do the singing, which is a japanese instrument that produces japanese words, though this version usual english words, regardless the words are barely recognisable
I hope to be able to fix the vocals to be more present indeed, thanks for the input.
Very nice piece, complexed arrangement and mix...impressive work, this has to be one of the best tracks reviewed this week, amount of work that has gone into it shines through big time, really can not place my finger on it, but something about this piece is special, not a lot of up tempo changes and I think it isn't needed, because of the ground work you have put into the mix, everything slows flawlessly, seriously keeping the listener glued to the track...INPRESSIVE track...Only part prob wasn't my fav bit was the high speed ending, sounded little out of place but did help with the ending of the track the sudden drop...Rarely download tracks from the site, but will down load this one, because I enjoyed it that much...Thank you for sharing matey...FAV...Peace n Respect....Mosaic...
Sorry for the late reply.
I'm very happy to hear that u find this the best track that week at the time of writing,
Yeah about the ending, it didn't work out exactly as I had in mind, due to lack of skills, honestly I don't like it either too much, but that's how I we learn.
Really liking this, as it is very different then what I hear when leaving reviews, no idea...But you have done a very good work I the arrangement of this piece, which wouldn't have been easy, great use of the vocals, everything works well in the mix credit to you...Fav...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...
well I am always aiming to make different sounding tracks.
and it was indeed a pain in the rear with the vocals indeed,,
haha I've redone this song like 3 times from back to finish before I finally got what I wanted.
