on mermaid dream by DanGoldstein

man......Love those deadly mermaids. Like it when they dream, cold beauty when she rest. Listening to this made me imagine a memory of loved mermaid from ancient past. Time unknown. Land of vast mystery. Outcast, drifter amongst the dark seas. You've created fantastic artwork for my mind friend. Great engineer with old school sounds, as always I hear from you. Thank you for sharing a listen with us. Dig it! Peace.

i like the picture you paint, Dj! glad it took you all the way back to that "fish thang!!" spark on, brother.

on mermaid dream by DanGoldstein

wowed as always - this sounds as if it may part of a suite - there are so many resolutions to the beautiful themes left in this listener's head - not that i think this is incomplete because it is but because it is so enchanting and open-ended - a wonderful experience every time brother = so much respect

DanGoldstein replied 3rd Feb 2013 - 13 years ago

thank you M. the appearance of your comment, and the appreciation expressed in it, so soon after posting, was a shot in the arm. i am in consultation with the mermaid on potential evolutions. later, partner.

Dan,
A short, yet interesting musical journey.
Mark.

DanGoldstein replied 5th Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

it's an interesting form to mess with. will continue building on it. it is the second section of slightly longer track here on the loop called summer morning. thanks for the listen, brother.

evanescent - and elegiac - summer is gone, summer is coming - sun glinting from a cello - bravo

DanGoldstein replied 5th Jan 2013 - 13 years ago

i am happy if you felt it a little, brother, and thanks very much for stopping by to check it out.

We seem to have similar interests when it comes to music. I actually want to have my own rpg game created with me composing the whole soundtrack one day. Kind of like most of my fav top composers of vgm or film music. Many favorites of mine are actually foreign. Such as Nobuo Uematsu(final fantasy composer) Yoshitaka Hirota, Nobuyoshi Sano, and many more names i cannot pronounce lol but their work is undeniable. But of course i still love many american based composer such as Hans Zimmer, Bruce Faulconer(DBZ), Martin O' Donnell etc.

And i agree with the others, you have the concepts down, it would just be nice to have full tracks. And from what i know really about VGM, the songs do not have to be "that" long. As they are most of the time tailored to specific scenes in games or movies and will play for maybe 1 minute and 30 seconds to 2 minutes. Sometimes longer, but that's usually credits and intros and stuff like that. How do i know this? Just alot of gaming and movie watching lol ALOT. great initiatives here man. peace

thanks for all of that info Neo. i hope to check out the composers you mentioned as well as more of your work. i am in fact on the road toward more expansive tracks. peace for now. Dan

on concentrate by DanGoldstein

Dan - this is taking music we just don't hear enough of to the next level and the prospect of Jamie getting on board has me watching the skies man

DanGoldstein replied 15th Jul 2012 - 13 years ago

thanks very much. breaking into some new territory with this one. thanks again. Dan

on concentrate by DanGoldstein

This is different - the keys remind me of the kind of sound Tommy Mars used in his Zappa days. Really quite enjoyable - nice work. What exactly are you looking for a guitarist to do on this?

Jamie.

DanGoldstein replied 14th Jul 2012 - 13 years ago

hey, Jamie. thanks very much. look forward to listening to more of your stuff. listened to part of your first track here on Loop. very mellow vibe. wow!

i need someone to take the guitar solo to a higher level - to take a look at the solo(can provide the midi file), maybe refine it a bit, make it more guitar idiomatic, and then lay it down (in a wave file). Would you be interested in giving me a hand with this? regards - Dan

on sniping in Central Asia by DanGoldstein

It's neat!! :) I definitely would make it longer.... so one can reaaaally feel the experience of this asian warrior.
Lovely. :D

DanGoldstein replied 24th Dec 2012 - 13 years ago

had a chance this morning to listen to "Now I am Free" your voice is nice and clear and a nice range. making the chorus in your high range and that the verses in lower range is such a simple but effective tool for contrast. maybe especially true because of the colors in your voice. anyway - I just discovered this encouraging comment you made over a year ago and I appreciate it. peace . best in 2013. dan

Yep 2 way too short but I was interested in it and wondered where it was going. Should be expanded.

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

yup - it's time. thanks for taking a listen.

Salook 9th Jul 2011 22:49 - 14 years ago

on sniping in Central Asia by DanGoldstein

This has a familiarity that I cant put my finger on, a cracking start to something conceptual, downloading, with your permission would be cool to have a go at remixing and extending this, let me know first, cool sound. cheers.

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

hey salook. thanks for taking a listen. i hear the tambour giving way to a less driving beat, the solo instrument becoming part of this less driving groove, and adding some background color. then bringing back original groove like a refrain with some variation, then breaking into something epic for a conclusion. did you ever do anything with this puppy? midisparks

Alot of your tracks seem to be short.
Maybe thats someone else...
anyways

Awesome mario like track!

Keep Em Coming!

Cheers

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

thanks Kenny Lee. just trying to get my chops a little stronger. working out a few basics. the short loops have been more helpful for that process. regards. Dan

ALXSIX 5th May 2011 21:47 - 15 years ago

on sniping in Central Asia by DanGoldstein

I know this is meant to be short as it's clips for your site, but it would be really great and interesting to extend them to a 'full length' song.
Seriously, this is a really great start, you have good foundations to make it longer without fearing loss of inspiration or ideas.
Anyway, you must be tired of reading and replying the same thing, lol. Keep going, love those sounds, very visual and absorbing music!

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

hey ALXSIX. how have you been? yup - it's time to start thinking about growing this puppy. thought is to take down the intensity of drum groove, add solo instrument as part of less intense groove, start introducing more ambient content. keep bringing back original drum groove sporadically and maybe more reality sound effect hits (like the gunshot and the chimes)at those points to mark action. finally break into the fullest orchestration at the end with an epic theme. peace. midisparks

on sniping in Central Asia by DanGoldstein

I have to dido whats been said already, ends to soon, brings a bit of fantasy and abrupt chaos for me. I like it. U really got talent with this area of music.

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

i appreciate the encouraging words. next step on this puppy is to refine and take down intensity of the groove. start coloring the background a bit more. so i'm on it - and thanks for the encouraging push. peace. midisparks

lofthouse 12th Mar 2011 00:03 - 15 years ago

on sniping in Central Asia by DanGoldstein

Gosh yes,what he said,why did this end so soon?
I was just getting into it,and,kapow,it was gone!
This could really be a magical track if you take it somewhere?
Love what you do,even though I feel it's just an starter to a really spectacular main course!g.xx

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

lofthouse - appreciate very much the review. i will start growing these clips eventually. have been focused on short statements which work on my website where I attach these clips to visual images. look forward to checking out more of your stuff. peace (and relief in Japan) midisparks

Love the classic bit sound guns. Captures the dark night vibe pretty good. In my head I see silhouettes jumping from tree to tree, ninja style. Church kinda in the background, just barely visible here and there through the fog. Very visual music lol. Makes me wanna fire up a game and play! Cheers :D

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

i appreciate the review. i hoped to evoke something like you described. i listened to a few of your guitar licks. looking forward to using them and will share when/how I do. peace

Again, I was loving it, the drums were sweet, and it ended all too soon.

Nonetheless, it sounded great.

John

DanGoldstein replied Unknown

i'm on it. will start pushing it ahead with some refinement of the groove and some more color for the background. thanks for the comments. midisparks
