oh yeah...that big transition around 1:50 is a work of art....(as are all of them)...great example of cinematic composing (3rd section..3:20 is a really effective switch)....Definitely music of the picture painting variety Doug...the great thing about the genre is the scope of license it provides for creativity...this is just a superb bit of work and the thought you put into the composition realy shows....a well done to you.....Ed

Ed,

Thank you for your insight, I was faced with working with many parts that I couldn't in good conscience let go or remove, so I spent a good bit of time working on the transitions and had some fun doing so. As always, I appreciate your input, especially from someone as talented as yourself.

Good, intelligent stuff and damn effective soundtrack music.

Melody on 0:33 is a nice sad one I like. Those strings sound great.

On the off beat (eg on 1:05) there's a cool sound which is a bit like a breathy voice. What is that?

Good chord on 1:52 to segue into next section.

In the section starting 1:56 maybe the snare is too loud. Otherwise, the drums are very effective.

Brass section starting 2:08 makes me think a bit of James Bond music (which is a very good thing).

2:24 and you bring in a top, floating, legato line that John Barry certainly would not have. It works very well as you can also comfortably hear the brass underneath.

Apart from that slight-too-loud snare, I'm struggling to fault this as it's really very good and a decent length.

Thank you for the reply, I noted and took your advice on that snare and brought it down a hair. Thanks!

You have some serious talent and I think you should make this a featured track so others will see it and listen to it.
Fantastic work mate.

I spent many years playing in an orchestra, and had an opportunity to play a lot of great music.

This piece would have fit in quite nicely - it is high quality work.

I love the dynamics in this, and the use of so many different instruments. It shows you have a real grasp of complex arrangements.

The mix is really nice as well.

I'm not sure if this is a genre you normally work in, but it definitely is a genre in which you excel. Absolutely brilliant work.

Thank you Bear,

This is definitely one of the more complex tracks that I have done and it provided me with many many hours in my little room. I appreciate the thoughtful feedback and support.

You should consider sending this to Ubisoft; this really sounds like something you would hear in Ghost Recon.

Very well produced! Wonderful arrangement.

on Worth Living - PALLASO ft Doug - Midnight Mix by DouglasS
Nice Job! I think i heard this upload and passed it up...Don't really like hip hop, Rap or R&B but damn man you did some things to the vocals I could hear when I came across this acapella. Very beautiful man Keep doin it.
DouglasS
DouglasS replied 24th Jul 2012 - 13 years ago
Actually, I didn't do anything to the vocals. I am not into rap so much either, but sometimes you just run with something. Thanks again for the review!
