on Believe the Dream by DjSomnium
That's top notch hear, has this great balanced dancy beat, technoish bass. And dreamy synth. Ultra cool. I gotta say that this proves that pro tools is no way inferior to FL. Use what you use best ^^

Great track man, you are just beginning aren't you? I wish I could have started this well. Some pads will give it more depth, and maybe find some ways to work in some of the sounds a little better, a few come in awkwardly.

Thanks a lot man! ill take those comments to heart. Which sounds do you think came in a bit weirdly? perhaps some of the synths? i think i should of used a diffrent synth, or given it more attack really. Well, thanks a lot for the review!

I believe the dream: nice track man. Love that bassline...
Nice synths too. I think the real instruments sound better than the vst's

Keep up the good work man!

A very catchy tune. I get images of the little pacman doing a kind of robotic dance to your track. Do you know anyone who could make such a video for this track? I think you could do a whole album and videos of this stuff. Great track.

I think what I liked best about this is how natural it sounded. I can't think of a word to use other then natural, it didn't seem like loops repeating but more like something being played live. Good job.
DjSomnium
DjSomnium replied Unknown
Thanks a lot for the review! Maybe you were talking about the varation it had, beacuse i didnt accually loop any sections, apart from the bass. So yeah i guess you could say i sort of played it live :)

Hi ya Lorin,

Thought I'd stop by and see what you had up and I see this as a featured tune.

I think you did an outstanding job on this tune. Capturing all the essence of Pacman sounds and a good feel.

I like this tune a lot and you did a great job of piecing the loops together.
Thanks for sharing it with us,

Randy

Hey dude, thanks for the review! And the awnser is yes, it probably is your loop! i downloaded like 150+ loops from this site a while ago, but i only just realised that there were no names on the loops etc when i came around to using them. So, im sorry for not mentioning you in this!!

on Pacman Remix by DjSomnium
Cramps... You read my mind man. OMG, this is so crazy. A week ago I was watching Club Dread and that maze scene came on- with this track. And I got to thinking about how cool it would be to remix this track. Kinda hinted at doing a collab mix with Splish though I dunno if I ever talked with him about it in one of the few messages I've sent him recently. Looks like ya beat me/us to the punch.

As for the track, this is so cool. Man, I'm floored. I love the whooshy-like effects ya used and that drum build was cool. The bass is nice and juicy too. The only thing detracting from this one is it's short length. Please, plz, plz say that you'll make a longer mix of this? I could maybe try if you'd like. I'm thinkin like 5-8 minutes, somewhere around there. Lemme know, cool!? Anyways, massive props for doin this one (though not for reading my mind, haha, jk). Lates!

Haha, wow !! well, that i was not expecting!! i guess great minds think alike right? well i also heard that fools think the same, hope its not that one :) As i was making this track i was accually thinking, wow i think this is way too long and everyone is going to be bored by the end! but i guess not right? and now that youv'e said that, of course i will make it longer!! I will need to think what i can add in to keep vareity and to keep everyone listening. Maybe send me some ideas as to what to add in to make this longer? Perhaps even, if you would like, you could download this track, and think about extending/remixing it?? send me a message tell us what you think. thanks! -Lorin xD (Btw, there are also a few pacman remixes online and on youtube etc so you might wanna check there for some more inspiration?)

automation skills are sick in this! i see you have put in some effort, because it is filled with heaps of varied melodies! i think you've done it some justice seeing it's only your 2nd attempt at this genre!

well done Lorin!
keep this up, sounds like you had a lot of fun with this 1

PEACE!

DjSomnium replied Unknown
Haha geez thanks! well i have been playing for a little ammount of time, and to be honest, the guitar in this song sounds a lot better than the skill it accually takes! its basically an Aminor arrpeggio, and its fairly easy to play once you get ehe hang of it! Yeah and it was recorded on an 8-Track hard mixer which was a bit of an effort to play the whole way through. But maybe i should do it again with new loops and equipment etc or leave it as it is im not sure. well, thanks for the review!

Sounds really good so far. I think if I were working on this song, I'd throw in a little ambient break in the action where the song stops of. Then pull the main theme back in with a heavy build to the end. Definitely excellent playing on this one. Thanks for sharing!
DjSomnium
DjSomnium replied Unknown
Thanks heaps, thats a really good idea! im just thinking where i should plcae that break. I think after the strings stop on the second half would be a good idea?

You have some good sounds supporting your guitar style that work very well together. On the strength of this track, I think you could do many genres well.
DjSomnium
DjSomnium replied Unknown
Wow! thanks a lot. That means a lot coming from someone as talented at guitar as yourself! I am only a novice at guitar and Iv'e still got much to learn! ill be sure to check out some of your tracks! Just wondering, do you like tommy emanual, Andy Mckee, Ted green or that one whos name i cant remember?

Thanks again! The piano was a synth in Xpand (protools plugin) and I made sure to put some nice echo and delay on it! And then the rest was digital bells, strings, and some guitar! and a few pad layers as well, and a synth bass, and another synth called 'pan pipes'. So yeah thanks heaps man!
