on Dec - Your hand mr Burke by Decnet
oh lah... that fruity kick seems alittle off and out of the mix, perhaps try dialing up the resonance, pitch etc.. it's overpowering... or even a different kick sound or 2...

gonna need to kick the drums in somewhere, like add a snare, cymbals.. mmmm, it'll give it more power and movement

dig the symphonic sounds, nice melodies, i keep wanting to hear electric guitar kick in lol...

not a bad start, I can hear it opening up, esp when the synths all come in together, need that drum pattern big time.

Well, just posted a reply to inPSYcle about the kick in this piece, and must confess i made a big mistake.. I accidently uploaded my tune without extracting the beat i use to keep track the bpm when freeplaying my synth at the same time. This tune isnt even supposed to have a kick of anykind in it.. Im sorry for the mess, and i was hugely surpriced when i started to read the reviews.. Ill make sure to upload the tune without my beat-tracking-kick in the background or "foreground" in this case.. Anyways, thank you for the review.. ///Dec

I like the violin melody in this. The techno like thump kick doesn't fit to me however. Kind of competes with the other sounds. I like the arpeggiated synth though, makes it more trance when that comes on. More of a mix of genres. This has nice potential though, would of liked to hear more done with it. solid track. peace out!

Omg.. Just realized i made a huge booboo.. I was on the plane back to my Island, and read the reviews about Thy hand mr.burke and people started to talk about the "beat", and i was like "whot beat? Theres no beat in mr.burke???" when i recorded it i always liveplay "something" at the same time and to be spot on with the tempo i use a drum that i exludes when finalizing. This tune wasnt even ment to have a beat in it.. lol.. Well, thank you anyways when it comes to the review even if i made a complete f-up when uploading it.. made i sould start to listen to the uploads i make to make sure that none of this will happen again..

Thanks again.. ///Dec

Love the subtle nuances. Love the somber tone,that isnt too overbearing,but still leaves room for light at the end of the Dark Corridor.the chimes playing thru from start to finish,give it that drone effect,that keys you in and keeps it locked. Dig the keys,drums,and guitars. But (being the type of person that is always looking for that certain sound of subtle movement to latch onto),I'm really diggin that vox element and the panning on that lil clicking sound...but im kinda kooky like that.lol.........Great Work

I would say thats a perfect review, because it sums up every little effect and element i had in it. Some people tend to listen to the music as a whole, and some people shops up the music or tune in their heads and starts to listen to the small things that makes the difference in the end. Seemes like we have a lot in common (so far:) )

Big thumb up and thanks for the review and ill make sure to return the favor..

ominous intro mate, diggit... especially cool how you hold us in anticipation with the contrast of the drum track and synth lines, then when the arp'd synth comes in, it's perfect and doesn't get boring before it's gone.

definitely remix worthy, love the 'western' sounding guitar, ethereal yet foreboding and reminiscent of coming home. nice work

love the common change ups with additional motifs flowing in & out, good touch. wow, some of those sub-bass, growlers kill me man, did i say definitely remix worthy ? lol, betchya people'd love to have the chance, just a thought.

excellente,

I shall see what i can do, im currently in process of creating an additional site (not named yet, tho) where i publish .rsn files and specific own-created stuff as loops and well.. The problem here is that my loops are long as hell, because im still a big fan of variation in the loop, witch makes it a "non-loop" if you read through the LUA here on looperman for instance.. So there for there hsnt been any loops-upload on this site from me "yet".. but im working on it. Every tune i have on here is up for grabs tho in its own specific state, so if you can make something out of it as it is by adding, extracting, pitching or whatnot, feel free to do so..

And im also glad that you enjoyed it.. Thank you once again for the comment..

some nice ideas... that snyth really does drive the track well.. the dreamy piano might just need a snippet taken off the top end...

Thank you for the comment, ´tis always nice to hear individual interpretations of the tune. For me, the piano is everything.. When im hardhitting the piano, im in that specific state of trying to make sense, like you highlight a specific word in a sentence..

Thank you yet again.. ///Dec

This is lovely, right up my street, the atmosphere plays out really nicely with the intelligent use of reverb.

If you decide you want the guitars to sound more natural as their i one note to me which sounds slightly out, give me a holla and ill happily lay em down for you :)

Decnet replied 21st Nov 2012 - 13 years ago
Thank you for the nice comment and glad you liked it..

I suppose you mean the note in the beginning that goes of with a "twang" and sounds like i broke a nail in the process.. i actually left it there to make it more realistic. lol..

Making music more alive is not to perfect it in my opinion, its those small flaws that makes the tune, but if you would like, i can see if i can remove the current guitarr, and you might have a go at it in any way you want.. would be fun.. And thanks yet again..///Dec

i relly like this, its a rewarding journey with just enough to stop it being repetitive (but i dont like anything that doesnt alter partly every 8 bars lol)and if you were struggling with that kind of latency its even more praise worthy !!
Decnet
Decnet replied 4th Dec 2012 - 13 years ago
That has to be one of my main problems.. Both good and bad i suppose, When creating tunes i always start out creating a loop that sounds aweseom in my ears and to quote Brillbailey in a previous review "I wrapp the rest of the music around the loop". By doing this there is always at least "one sound" or "loop" that follows through the entire tune, making it (if you concentrate on that specific sound) repetetive, BUT at the same time trying to alter it all by using sounds that steals the attention of the main loop..

aaah.. sounds like blabbering jibberish but you are probobly an intelligent being and knows exactly what im talking about.. lol.. anyways.. Thanks for the comment!

Hey D. We don't care what software you use. It's all good as long as it sounds good. And this one is a really cool song. Very melancholy and moveing. a very emotionally felt song. More later. Your fighting through the computer problems in fine form keep it up!

Thank you Ed anyway, and i still think this is a great initiative.. Its fun to see that even when quiality suffers and the tune in my ears didnt come out as expected its still audiable to others. Feel good.. thanks again mate..

this one is rather dark... alsom somewhat melancholic and a tad frustrated, at least thats what it sounds like to me.
That eerie, slightly bitcrushed glockenspiel-thingy is a awesome in my opinion and that overall slightly low quality (meaning the quality of the file, NOT the quality of the music itself) actually somewhat fits the track for it gives it a somewhat detached, foggy and nearly suspence-horror-edge... and it has a nice drive while being chilled at the same time...

you really don't stop to amaze me mate. Big thumbs up!

so far~

PS: this really does sound like D'n'B with half-time drums...

Decnet replied 4th Dec 2012 - 13 years ago
Detached, foggy, susepence-horror-edge... I like that description.

When it comes to genre.. well.. I suck at placing them in the correct section so, mainly i say either "techno, Industrial, or chill" depending on the mood.. Ill might sort this one correctly one day..

Anyways, Loved the comment, loved the description and stay tuned for more.. Ill make sure to drop in and give a listen to your work as well.. ///Dec

Real chill, like the vibes. the eerie glockenspiel type of sound gets a little repetitive for me. The drums almost makes this a slow liquid drum and bass type of song, but i'm not the type to be a genre nazi. Alot of the sounds fit quite nicely together too. I would of like some of the high end to come up a bit more, but i'm guessing that's due to the length and the quality had to be squashed in the long run. I would of also liked to hear more variation, it's just a tad too forward for me. Although that's how i usually like a song to be structured. The kick could also come up a little more for me, but the snare is at the right level. Overall, a pretty solid track. like it. keep it up. Peace out.

Thanks mate for the analysis.. When i did this tune a lot of things didnt really go as planned, and the only thing that whent with it was the liveplay of the piano. I always record the piano at the side together with the tune itself to make it project emotions, well, my emotions to be exact.. The quality of some of the specific sounds got ruffed up when going from 48k to 22500 and theres a audiable difference when listening to the original on my puter at the correct hertz.. But i hear you, and if i ever bring this tune to life again ill might consider what you said, but for now, this tune is at rest.. so 2 speak..

Wow this is another really good song. It's a very emotionally strong well constructed song. It has a gentle angst very ironic and powerful. It's really hard to pull off a song like this w/o vocal as we're so conditioned to a male vocal with this type groove. But..... you pull it off well. GREAT JOB. Has anyone tried to remix this with a Vocal or tried to write lyrics to this? It's a really strong peiceof music.

Thank you for the review. No one has tried to remix it, yet. Sinse i dont do either vocals or accapellas myself except for some rare occasions its been laid to rest as a project. IF someone would sing to this then it would definetly do my day, so 2 speak.

really well balanced pad work with the guitars... its an awesome song... so full.. youve done some awesome frequency work there, fitting it all in. would love to remix this...

think the build up to it is awesome.
only downside.... it could go harder, but then i think everything could go harder.
is this a sample based tune or did you do it all yourself / did you write the guitars ? if so did you filter it afterwards? or did you do it pre-recording ?
Decnet
Decnet replied 29th Oct 2012 - 13 years ago
First off a big thanks for the review.. Second, everything you hear in my tunes are made by my own hands either electronicly or asked for permission of either game-developers or the origin of the sample (This complies to voices, accapellas, and stuff ripped from games or films)

The guitarrsound is actually completly reason, BUT i put a lot of hours into it, making it sound like the real deal, witch means yes, i "wrote" the guitarrs. lol.. When it comes to filtering, well.. lets just say that the actual guitarr is 6 different guitarrs, reacting differently depending on how "hard" i play it, witch makes it feel more alive. Cant remember the layout just now but, the first microsecond determines how "hard" i pull the string, and acts accordingly with reverbs or delays thereafter, the second microsecond determines the "tone" and depending on previous variables it can "bug out, and cut the tone completly" if the tone and first keystroke was played to hard, making it sound more like a real guitarr, and the third effect on each tone is determined the release of the stroke, meaning if i hardrelease the key it will sound like a wobble or a strum, and if i release it slowly it will go into an echo and/or arena reverb..

Lojg answer but i do hope it made sense, (but) due to the time creating the guitarr, i will not release it as an .rsn but feel free to remix it as it is...

When I listen to this I picture a small summer cottage deep in the mountains with people wandering in a nearby field of flowers. Remembering all the fun times of youth and the new ones being made in the present. A slow lazy evening leading to sunset of end of summer.
