Haha, I wish I knew music theory to learn how to do some of this stuff you had done in this track. I'm taking theory 1 this year in highschool, and I had taken a test to see what I know so far. The teacher looked at the front page of my packet and had said, "well, now I know you play compose completely by ear". Hopefully by the end of this year I can at last do a fraction of some of the harmonies you had implemented here! Great work.
Hi. I'm glad you like the track. I just learnt to play chords on the piano and guitar, then messed about with them until I understood them better.
You've been given a massive head start by being able to compose by ear. And you will be able to make vastly more complex compositions if you understand the theory as well.
Good luck in your future studies. I look forward to hearing what you create.
Ok, the idea and layout is perfect, maybe a few more FX here and there but that's whatever. I'll tell you what is holding the song back; the mix and the master. The mix is.... not good to say the least. And the master? You can hear that you probably put a compressor and just cranked it, then put fruity limiter over it. Not a good mixture at all, both the mix and master are elements holding this track back from getting signed to something like NCS. NCS would 100% pick this track up if you contacted them with a PROPER mix and master. I would be more then happy to mix/master this track if you asked. Thanks for the good tune!
As always, the chord progression is great and solid. Is that pluck the Z3TA patch or is it the massive one? It needs some of the lows EQ'ed. And maybe that saw in the high end that comes in about 0:27 can play a bit more of a catchier hook by moving up and down the music scale a little more. Other then that, this track is as solid as most of your other works! Thanks for the track man.
The pluck is my Massive one. I'm not too fond of the Z3TA patch anymore. I've spent a total of like 3 hours with this so far. and most of that was just making the chords. So I'm not surprised it needs EQ'ed. I plan on working on this more after I get off work tonight
Ha ha, I guess it is. But then, on the other hand, it's just one synth. One could probably say that the DD-20 is acting partly as a synth when the modifications are used this way though. I do enjoy that moment when the lines begin to blur. Thanks for listening! Have a good day!
I agree with the first comment, I'd say speaking a bit clearer or maybe just adding a compressor to the vocals would've made them louder. Otherwise, you can obviously tell this song comes from deep within, and has real meaning. The composition and overall atmosphere of the track is kind of dark, but its a beautiful darkness. Good work my friend.
Thanks for your friendly comment and the info LRAD.
Good to know that you like the track.
It is in a way interesting that all Germans who listen to this song could understand the vocals and much of non germans found them a little to low.
So, when this track will be on the way to the next world wide mega seller hit, then a much better producer then me will have his hands on all that stuff :)
