I love this song. I would add some pads when you start singing. and then it needs a strong piano just playing ne note at a time. when i have the time, I would love to add to this one Joe. A great piece of work and very catchy as I keep thinking of it in my mind.
Cru
Thanks a lot for your gentle comment Steve.
Really good to know that you like what i have done.
I would be honored if you would take the time to compose something for this song.
Since I intend at least to resume the choral part, it would be nice if you, whatever you produce, send it me as separate steem file, so I can mix it again properly.
If you want i can send you the steems to work on/with
Awesome , this is Ambient, and a freaking scary ambient at that. great usage of the whole dynamic palate. the sub bass with the dissonance is sublime. 1:55 reminds me of some NIN or later Gary Numan.
fav'd, thanks for adding to the Hal;loween spectacle!
Cru
after I uploaded it I seen your thread and thought "well damn isn't that just a great coincidence, Halloween themed music thread. perfect" making decent ambient songs is a lot harder then it sounds. when you get into the "weird" noise territory its hard to get similar sounding synths in there that go well together. I'm going to try another one and see how it comes out. if its Halloween worthy I will post it up on that thread. thanks for the listen and review!
Ha ha now that's a tasteless video there, but funny nonetheless ! I'm not sure if you've ever heard of him but I have been a fan of Sylvain Cloux for years. Hes a french guitarist who does amazing metal renditions of theme songs and covers. I sort of tried to do this in his style. if you get a chance check him out. I love his Munster's and Bond theme covers. Thanks for the comment Cru !!!
Much Much better, now everything fits in it's place. Now you can experiment with the percussion and bringing the drama up. and then the drop to just the pad and rebuild the whole thing. even think about a key change at the end, the ideas are endless.
Cru
I liked the disjointed ness of it. the sections just begging for cohesion. Then the last part of the song is killer. even my wife liked your dissonat brass fading away to obscurity at the end. Overall good work.\
I love the pipes, the northern feel. sweet arpeggio anchoring the song. The vocals choir is appropriate. It is a bit repetitive, but a strong basis to make a song out of.
Cru
This is very good. As a fellow artist who loves to "genre bend" loops to fuse into any style or song, i can appreciate this. It reminds me of some of my earlier efforts which really brought wild sounds together. But as I have gotten wiser with time with looping I am learning that it all has to stick together like glue. You have that cool vocal phrasing which makes it funky and sets a groove tone. you then bring in some sweet strings but it almost segues awkwardly with the vox at first. I have found that that is the time where you up your percussion game, bringing in a bridge that will allow those strings and vox to fit. Don't be afraid to use like 10 tracks for percussion sometimes to give a mix like this some edge.anyhow enough of my "Yakking" from La Belle province, Bonne travaille!
Cru
A singular sound you have created. I love the analogue synths, the minimalist two step beat that just hammers it into your brain like a power press drill. If you really wanted to mindfuck us, you could have segued in a gabba sound by doubling the bpm for a few measures. but then I might have crapped my pants and recluded to the nearest wall in a fetal position rocking back and forth making a gurrrgghh like sound. thats the power of your music my friend. Powerful Poison indeed.
Steve
Ha ha, gabba... now there's something you don't hear brought up every day! I try to avoid "brown note" and similar situations, since I would hate to be asked to clean it up. Plus life is hard enough as it is!
Happy to hear that you think it has some power to it. It's been taking all of my self control to keep plugging away at this album. Hopefully I am within a song or two. The record heat in the past couple of weeks did not help at all!
Just thought I'd take a minute to respond here, and return the favor before I finish making seed milk. Thanks for listening friend!
A wild ride. you are slipping closer and closer into 12tone atonal my friend. great vibe, and reminds me of the Italian word for Witch which is Strega!
good work
Cru
I remember learning that word in my college Italian class. I like using note sets and some of the serial techniques. I'm so used to the result. I forget how strange this atonal stuff must sound to others. But glad some can appreciate. Thanks Cru.
Thanks... I felt the same thing, but was so focused on making the guitar sound decent that I overlooked that. It sounds best just to rip out the paino chords all together, don't you think?
Nice baseline, and an awesome muted melody using the piano and other stabs. Very much like Chicago House. Love the tremlo guitar in the last third of the song. gives off a great chilled vibe.
good work!
Cru
Hey Cru,
Thanks for sharing your feeling about this sound :) (i saw you recently changed your logo, nice choice ;))
about the bass line, as toastedavalanche noticed it, i took care to create an interplay with the piano. Your reference to chicago make me happy because it's a great place for house music! thank you very much for your friendly words, i appreciate it :)
There is a Leonard Cohen quality about this one. In a good good way. Keep on it. Musically I want to hear a chorus sung an octave higher in it maybe with a quick explosion of emotion and back down to that draweld almost spoke-sung sound that reminds me of Mr Cohen.
Steve
Where the hell U been Mate?
I hope the summer has been good for you. I have been ridiculously productive in all genres and having a hell of a time making music and mastering sounds and meshing things together that shouldn't be. What are you working on these days my friend?
Crucurious?
Glad to hear you've been productive! Sorry, I've not been doing any Looperman listening for a while. Got a bit disenchanted with the lack of new Rock/Metal instrumentalists joining the site, and an influx of producers and rappers. Also not a fan of the mouth-flapping coming from a Funktastic bitch who admonishes every perceived micro-aggression. So it's the track section disappointment, and the forum policing. I would rather leave than stay and complain. Also been more active this summer. I quit smoking over 3 years ago and now we're biking and hiking and canoeing about the Ozarks. I have really gotten into fishing in an unhealthy way. Addicted.
I have two partial tracks in the hopper, and a couple collabs with looperman members that may see the light of day in the next year. Hopefully sooner with my personal tracks.
I agree with Mosaic, it is a house-trance hybrid but very smooth and listenable. Good production all around. As for the name, the song reminds me of "driven Purpose" it's just moving forward amnd niothing is stopping it from unfolding before your ears. Great Work.
