Hey really unique sound! I really like how crazy the track is, except i would say that the pulse lead melody that plays at 1:46 could have been made better by turning down the detune, because it makes it sound like you are playing bum notes over the bass line.
Hello, thank you for the good comment! Apologies for taking so long to respond, but I've been working like crazy to finish this to my satisfaction. The update is here now. You were right about the pulse synth... the detune was intentional, but has been removed, and in the process I realized that this synth has gone WAY out of tune... like it was in the key of F instead of C! Thank you for bringing it up! Also repatched and improved the scaling of the modular bass, so that helps. I appreciate it!
Amazing work so far! Really love how groovy the track is! I would add some live playing, but my mic isn't of good quality so I think it would detract from the song, not add to it.
Hey! Don't limit yourself! Please, feel free to send me what you'd like. Y'know, a few good bars of live playing. As for the quality, I'm sure that can be worked on or edited. I encourage you to participate with this song man. My plan is to get others to add in his/her own stuff, and create a big collab track. Just send me a message if you're interested, my friend. And everyone who is involved, will absolutely be credited. Peace!
I like this, but maybe you could throw in some new house elements in there too, like some more melodies and maybe a breakdown of epic proportions to make it different.
Thanks Rico, this track is quite old and the stems were deleted couple of years ago (bad habit) But thanks for the tip. However it does need work I must admit.
Really strange yet peaceful sound. Could really feel like something was being painted onto my consciousness while listening. Props to you sir! The only thing I could say is to get a new water sample because its looping pretty hard lol.
Wow, thanks Rico. I hear it at least 3 missing timings. This is definitely an encouragement from you. :)
I do like trance so I couldn't help not putting those pads. Will try on trance some time.
Really great track here. Love how airy and open your chords feel, great choice of sustained chords to your credit. The only thing I would have to say is to maybe lower the volume of the vocals when they come in so they do not squash the mix so much.
Hi Rico,
I will consider lowering the vocals in the final mix: I tend to keep vocal parts much to the foreground, but in this case it should be considered as an "instrument" (and for me is always difficult to lower the volume on Janis' voice, I like her voice too much).
Thanks ludwicke! It was a song I wrote while still in high school that I finally got to record :) I started playing guitar about 4 years ago haha. But the stuff I'm playing honestly isn't too difficult, if one knows how to strum and handle a pick. I guess it's simplicity is where the beauty lies haha. Appreciate the kind words!
Thanks Rico. Agreed: ferryterry did a great job on guitars. He played 2 choruses then you can hear my el. piano improv also for 2 choruses and onece again the guitars. I was thinking if I can find someone to play over the last part which seems lack the solo but probably I leave the composition at this point for now.
Thanks for listening and some nice words. It is appreciated. Alex
Hey man, i would definitely say that this is future bass. I really liked the pad work and melody you have before the drops. The only thing is that I think that the bass during the drop could be mixed in better because it feels like its wayyy on top of everything and not locked in tight with the chords and drums behind it. I loved the release the bass shot before the drop, it made me chuckle. Overall good track!
Keep up the good work!
