Glad you enjoyed it. Initially the transitions were a little rough, so I put some extra effort into them until they sounded good to me. It is awesome to get validation that I hit the mark.
Hi heath, cheers for the comment. Yeah, I was trying to keep the relationship between the two sections but change it up to something completely different at the same time, hope it worked.
The opening is very cool. I like the build into the guitar. The lead violin is very pretty and fits really well. This reminds me of "Buying New Soul" by Porcupine Tree. Good stuff.
Mentioning "Buying new Soul" is almost kind of a shock to me and enormous compliment. Favourite track from one of my fav bands, but I really didn't have them in mind doing this, but who knows, there might be something in subconsciousness as I believe it often happens with musicians creating music. Thanks alot for your feedback !
I'm usually not a fan of house music, but this is very nice. Mellow with a variety of layers to hold interest. I also like the subtle way you used the vocals.
Thank you bro ,Just seen this comment now! have not been on Looper man in a while, Thank you for listening and glad you enjoyed that part at 51 secs 158 etc. Thank you for the feedback!
Usually when I think of trance I think boring and repetitive, but this is very neat and very listenable. Your instruments have pleasing tones. I like that the kick and bass are more subdued because it allows the pretty melodies to dominate.
Thanks, Heath. I don't think trance has to be boring and repetitive, although I agree that some of it is. I like a focus on melody. Perhaps that's why JoeFunktastic felt that this really wasn't trance.
I have had a tendency in my tracks to make the kick too dominant I think. I am trying to dial it down a bit. My wife calls my music "thump, thump music". That's not meant as a compliment, but it accurately reflects the way I have mixed kicks and bass in my tracks.
I think this track would be a lot better if it had real vocals. Just need to work out some lyrics. And, find a singer of course! :)
Absolutely fantastic. I love the change at 3:53. Even though it lacks conventional structure and instrumentation it's engaging all the way through. Amazing.
Im glad you enjoyed it, I find alternative song structures to be really engaging so try to do that in my work sometimes. You should check out my SC page (only 5 songs up there), you might enjoy some of the work I have there :()
Thank you so much for taking the time to listen and leave a comment. Whenever the inspiration hits me I will revisit the groove after 1:29. Hopefully it won't be too long before a spark ignites, and I go YES! This is what it needs!
Thanks a lot! I really felt like that instrument deserved that echo and it was the first part that I made in this instrumental, everything else followed around it.
The Guitar is actually a sample from here!
