You had a beautiful intro. Caught my attention with the great usage of keys with the synths coming in to accompany the keys. This is really awesome, despite not going for what you wanted the track to be like. Your creativity, however is amazing. It may lack that video game sound, but your results are amazing. I encourage you to keep working on this till you get your desired sound that you wanted. I'm actually really interested in remixing this if you'd be alright with that. What program did you use to make this?
Yeah, thats something i really like doing in my songs is having synths and piano notes working together.
Im glad you enjoyed :).
Yeah of course you can remix it :).
Do you want me to send you the stems when i finish? or how it currently is?
and i used FL Studio :)
Yo, this is rather tight and creative. I personally think that everything that's included in the track is useful, which would fit into the weird category. If anything, the parts which others may not like much, I'd perhaps lower the volume or something of the nature. I also like to rap feeling you've put into this. Best of luck, man.
This is incredible. Everything is so gentle and flowing. It's a bit low-volume, but that's nothing too major. I'm rather curious to what you used to make this. This is absolutely something that has potential to be in a film. I encourage you to master this in the most effective way. I believe that if you lengthen this, increase the volume, and maybe (and I mean MAYBE) add some cinematic drum patterns, this can possibly be used in some new coming movies this year. Beautiful work, my friend Take care! Cheers!
Thanks for your kind words and for the feedback! I would like to work on an extended version at some point in the near future!
I take it you are curious as to what instruments & libraries were used? I can name a few off the top of my head, but I'm afraid I don't recall every single library.
Initial Vocal Library: Shevannai
Male Vocal Library: Voice of Gaia: Bryn
Lead Strings: Concert Strings 3
Backing Strings: Project Sam Orchestral Essentials (Arco)
Piano: Spitfire Audio Felt Piano
Additional Strings: Spitfire Audio Mural Symphonic Strings
Percussion/Bass: Sample Logic Morphestra
Additional Vocals: Altus
DAW used was FL Studio.
I hope this was what you were looking for, thanks for checking out the track!
The intro captured me instantly. Very smooth and relaxing! Very nice combination you pulled off man. You just created something incredible. Your transitions from funk and dubstep is so slick, and once it's onto the specific genre, it sounds like it's own personal song with their own styles. I couldn't fav this fast enough! I encourage you to make more of this, my friend! Cheers!
Even at its rawest form, this is very impressive. You have good usage of patterns and control. The melodies are nice, and the bassline is deep and hard. I encourage you to keep working on this. This sounds rather fine and well-rounded as it is, yet improvement is always good. But remember, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Cheers!
This is tight, man. The different beat patterns is sick, and the choir adds alot. I also like the wind-chimes. It's simple, yet fresh. The vocals are a little low, so I couldn't really understand what all was said. Nevertheless, another cool track from you!
Thank you GoldenOokami for taking the time to enjoy my track. Sorry bout the vocals I was almost certain I should have made the vocals a little louder. It won't happen again. I just didn't want the vocals clashing too much with all the percussion. but I figured how to fix it . Thank you for helping me get stronger- EazyBeatz :)
Very interesting intro. Like a small, short preview of the whole track. I also like how when the track begins after the organ/keys/rhodes, at 0:44, the instrumentation has that background sound, then at 1:07, it all comes out hard and heavy, which is nice. The beat flows greatly. The vocals are somewhat very low, and at times very hard to hear. At 3:27, the instrumentation does the background-like sound for the outro, which is very nice; ending the way it started. Altogether, very creative and fresh. The vocals were just difficult to really hear. I encourage you to continue this!
I'm digging this! This sounds like it would be in a retro game. This remix is incredible. I would totally recommend letting Nintendo check this out. I can vision this being in a retro style Tetris with modern day graphics, y'know? Nevertheless, beautifully constructed! Faved!
This is beautiful. Relaxing and chill. The intro is capturing, which is very important. The body of the track is funky. I like how you made off-beat percussion pattern section around 0:50. The synths are very unique. This is very well done. I like the fade out at 2:35. At 2:50, the bonus track starts, and I was still hooked from the previous one. Loving the 2nd track. Has a very funky jazz feel to it. Great work, comrades!
Thank you Ookami for this very nice review. I am happy you liked the songs.
It's a result of my exploration on some funky territories. I am trying to combine some jazz loops and samples from some great musicians of this site with my keyboard (synth/Rhodes piano) playing. I added some strangeness and nice ambiance in here as well.
I started to study more closely some funk patterns but this time the off-beat drums are simply a midi sequences from the EZdrummer plugin. I used only two funk drum midi patterns (2-bar and 4-bar long I guess) in this first track but there's some ethnic percussions and some other percussive sounds - that's why I was able to create some interesting motion and dynamic in here.
Very good control here! I'm surprised that this sounds so good and is the unmastered version. This sounds perfect as it is. Very great choice of instrumentation. Very capturing intro. The transition at 1:45 was incredible, with a nice timing gradual come back to the main body of the track. I also love the outro. Such a gentle and string-oriented farewell for the track. Marvelous work here, my friend! Truly looking forward to hearing the complete, mastered version!
thanks for the kind words! I'm glad that you noticed what i did with the outro; I personally thought it was cool. Look for my mastered version on sound cloud!
Capturing, positive title. Remarkable instrumentation, and soothing, yet empowering voice. This altogether is a beautiful track. It has such a chilling and simple sound, yet such complex vocals and powerful choice of lyrics. This is absolutely well-rounded. Nothing needs to be changed. This is truly a masterpiece. Amazing!
This is beautifully constructed. Powerful bassline, and great work with the flute and brass instrumentation. This is one of my favorite genre's, and you absolutely did it justice. Nice control of your organs, and everything in general. I would love to be able to work with you in Jazz one day. Keep this up please. I'm begging you. :)
Haha. What's funny is that all these instruments are parts that I made and had electronically done. I do play trombone and it would be so much fun be in a jazz band. Thank you!
Interesting work here! Very creative. I can't say I've heard anything like this before. I can't really say anything needs to be changed or altered. The vocals from the different songs sounds clean together. This isn't really pop though, but I can't think of any other genre this might be. Nice job!
This is beautifully constructed. Everything is very smooth and relaxing. The vocals are gentle. The instrumentation sounds absolutely professional. I certainly am unable to give a fave fast enough! Thank you very very VERY much for posting this!
Powerful stuff right here! Your guitar/bass playing is very professional sounding. I'd be shocked if it's not the case. There is a quality difference with your guitar/bass and your drums. I'm sure your guitar and bass was played live, and is not synthetic. Your drums may be, however that is fine. Might I recommend using a specific reverb setting on whatever program you use. Preferably something such as "Big Room" where the drums can have that more realistic sound, as oppose to it sounding...not robotic persay, but to clean. And there's nothing wrong with getting a little dirty. ;)
Nevertheless, I absolutely enjoyed this! Faved! Take care, and keep this up!
Thanks Ookami, yeah I agree the drums need better treatment to sound "live" and fit in more. Will have to work on my drum production skills. Appreciate you taking the time to listen and leave a comment.
Creativity is power. Remember that. And this was track displays just that. This is has many flavors. Reggae and Trap influences indeed, as DJ-SLT-UK mentioned. I liked this alot. Very interesting how this came together. I cannot say I've heard anything like this, but for my first time of this type of infused genre, I am very VERY pleased. I'm not sure what I can say as far as improvement, for the song sounds great in my ears. Keep this up, man! If you want to work on this track with others, I'd love to be able to help in any way. Faved, and peace!
Hey cheers Ookami for the words of wisdom! Really means a lot. I don't really know where this track is going to go from here, or where the idea even came from haha, but i'll keep you in mind if i need a different perspective! Otherwise, i am keen to collaborate on something in future =]
Very calming and beautiful. You have incredible control of your instrumentation which is very important. Your music indeed tells a story. Looking forward to more of your musical stories.
I absolutely love how you made this song from a mouse. The song tells a story which fits perfectly with what you've told us in the description. It has a simplistic sound, but also is bouncy and fun to listen to. Your motivation levels are very high. I'm glad I was able to listen to this. Your piano patterns were executed beautifully. As if the piano resembled the mouse, perhaps? Nevertheless, nice track!
Thanks Golden! I'm happy you felt that way. Also glad this track fits the description. When everyone can feel the same feelings you felt when listening to one of your tracks then you know you did your job right! Thanks for the kind words and have a great day :)!
Damn, this is tight. A great holiday-themed track, with a nice flow. Those vibe synths are very effective on here which gives it that initial Halloween type feel, and then the beat patterns add that trap flavor in. Sweet track, man.
I like the simplicity of this. I can understand the concept you have here as well. Massive is a great VST isn't it? I'd love to do a remix of this. Would you be interested in that? With a concept like this one, it has absolute potential. Until next time, take care!
Very gentle and easy to listen to. Beautiful vocals, and nice choice of instrumentation. That groove at 1:36 really caught my attention. Very creative, and incredible work from you and Mhyst. Keep up this creativity, comrade!
