Maybe not a genre, but Psychotronicartfunk can be your first album, or possibly group name. Save the genre inventing for the critics. Uncategorizable is almost always the most interesting.
Nice original work, I like the trippy panning.
I'm gonna keep picking on you and mark till I hear a song with an actual ending :3
Nice automation (or recorded knob turning) experimentation. I wouldn't go crazy with it. Keeping that filter cutoff in your back pocket and using it occasionally will have a more dramatic effect than using it constantly. You have some nice sounding synths (I think I head some white noise mix in them), but they get overwhelmed by the filter cutoff.
My opinion of course, just food for thought. Good track overall, keep it up.
Thanks for the feedback! im still figuring everything out. I defiantly agree it might be a bit to much with the automation . I recorded the samples then chopped and layered them in a different DAW so the mixing was kinda tough. Im Slowly figuring out how to stay in FL though. Its my first finished track using all of my own samples so its a start.
Thank you very much. Yeah SpeakUp put me under fire with this choir sample. But this is where i grew up. I started as a choir boy in church. And this is my demo intro for my ep i'm working right now, thats why this is so short. I like when you feel like why is this so short? I will play with the short attention thing in my generation.
Very noise based, definitely D&B. Kinda wish there was more in the high frequency range to fill in the space (hats are trying). Maybe add a hint of white noise or some reverb on some keys parts to get a little less dry (or even a ride thought that wouldn't be very D&B). Just a thought.
This is an excellent cover. Nice clear, live sounding mix. Nice guitar tone and santana-like style execution. He loved mixing, harmonic minor, and the blues into those licks, and you showed him due respect.
Muy amable amigo bringerofDOOM, gracias por tus cĂ¡lidos comentarios. He intentado de construir un trance oscuro, friĂ³, algo diferente a lo habitual, por lo que he tenido ciertas dudas a la hora de subir la pista. Que tengas una buena tarde amigo. Paz y salud.
Thank you Doom :) This mix is weird, done just with headphones because im on vacation. I really saw your beautifeul Thread in the forum. I tried for so many times to get acess into the forum. But maybe the dont like bananas. I neeeeed help with mix. S.O.S
Nice unorthodox guitar chords over the vocals, very Blondie. The mellow solo is not too bad either. There is quite a bit of volume difference between the loud and soft parts. I'm assuming that is by design, but you could consider squashing the track a little with some master compression (or turn the quiet parts up a little, it would spare my speakers).
I'm liking the vocal effect about 1:10 in, and again at about 4 min (is it two tracks with one pitch shifted or one track with a post effect?). Super bright mix.
I know all about forcing oneself out of the "comfort zone" (I come from extreme metal and attempt to dabble in as much as possible).
As far as genre goes, I'm a music lover not a genre lover. Genre categorization is for critics, and non-musicians that need a way to organize their tastes. It's not a bad thing, it is just not the musicians' responsibility.
I would be wary of being a "purist" with most things. And don't worry about trap in everything, pop absorbs the cool and makes it lame, so it will kill the cicada beat for you, I give it about a year, and the genre another 3 or 4 for the "purists" :)
And, great mix. Nothing wrong with "4 on the floor" if it sounds good. Nice bass and pluck choices as well. The hats are a bit wet on the reverb, but it seems to fit.
Also, if you want to "break the mold," try some 7th and 9th chord substitutions, instead of open position and bar chords (generally speaking), to spice up the harmony (just a thought).
Elvis was a purist, James Brown was a purist, and Jimi Hendrix was a purist. so it all depends on what context you put it in bro. Back then we knew who was on the lead guitar, who was on the bass, who was on the keys, and who played the drums.
Today that does not matter anymore because everything is a mashup. You called me a genre lover, thank you. The genres of yesteryear have survived like Motown. Motowns genre-based songs will have a very long top-shelf life. Mashups are not so lucky. Its not that I love genres. I mean the Beatles played in a specific genre. I just dont want a Deathcore-Gospel music song, I dont want that.
At the end of the day I want a chillout playlist to relax to with no rap. Radio stations to this very day depend on genres. I mean I dont think I would like Kanye West in a Green Day song. That would really suck for Green Day. thanks bro!
Get's very Aphex Twin a couple times. Thought I was having a stroke, but in a good way, then I thought, it's probably not good to say "Thought I was having a stoke, but in a good way."
Michael Jackson's bassist ate a mushroom. Reminds me of Hawkwind or Throbbing Gristle. Nice ambient transition and turnaround, with the reverse guitar.
Jeez, not sure how I missed this. I'm loving that crispy eric johnson tone. If you want to make some art, or guitar battle or something, let me know. I will be listening to more.
You sold me with that first juicy synth chord. Great guitar tone. Great solo. I'm liking all the neoclassical arpeggios. Strings... of course. Well written, nice work.
I totally forgot I sent you that synth bass line. Had to take a break to get some things lined out in real life. Nice use of the track. I'll be back soon.

I just recently started experimenting with wave and flat panning. I hope to get more proficient with it as I use
it more often.
I'm going to have to get with you on what an "actual ending" is :3.?.?.? :-)
Thanks for your listen and comments.
PEACE...

All the best music is difficult to pin down.
The mix is great. The music is well written and arranged. It kinda reminds me of Avatar (band), less the death metal.
Nice work.
