Logo gone all dark again, cool...
I love the dissonance and atonality in this song and the thought you have put in the arrangement to tell a story. The piano @ 5:04 is both hopeful and ominous. Brilliant work. Gets a Fav
Cru
well... that logo is the cover of my digital album, I found that funny to put it as my avatar. glad you liked the change
Dissonance and atonality seems all my life XD. Also you can consider the entire track as hopeful and ominous.
like at 1:33 min you can feel the hope until 1.45 min.
Not a huge fan of country rock, but I am truly impressed with the sound quality you achieved in this recording. The guitars sound awesome. nice work
Cru
Thank you cru for a nice review!
I am glad you enjoyed listening to this recording. I had some difficulties with velocities of the virtual instrument but I am happy with the results.
Alex
Reminds me slightly of a more modern Utah Saints. Very good. Nice mix and stereo seperation with just a hint of chup tune at the end. I enjoyed that.
Cru
Nice mix of analogue synths and jazz sensibilities. It made some sweet background music as well. It's chill and avante-garde. takes the best of the boys from sheffield in the seventies and the brilliance of modern chill-jazz. good work.
Steve
Thank you for your nice words!
This is a track I made last Sunday afternoon playing with 'colors' trying to expand the sound sonically so to speak (acoustically, electronically or whatever). Nothing much of a true melodic substance or a solid, evolving, dynamic-oriented song-writing work in here (but I am still struggling going definitely into that direction so do not worry). No metric modulations - just few jazzy chords and some basic drumming and simple structure alternating the elements.
Thanks for pointing some connections to older music - I absolutely love classic recordings.
Glad you enjoyed some of musical illusions I created intentionally or not
I'm sorry c64 commodore 64? I used to compose on a commodore Vic20 when I was a kid in 1983. 3.5k with a super expander to make it 16k. Programmed in basic. square waves, 3 channels with 1 channel of white noise to simulate drums. I wish an example survived to this day.
Cool use of an old phrase.
Cru
Ok, VIC-20! Then you know about programming music, totally different from playing the instrument. Besides Vacuum, Programming music in BASIC must be the hardest way of creating music that I know. :)
If you ever released your tune in any way, demo or something the tune may be on the internet. I've found all of my old tunes even on youtube these days.
Poptastic song. Key of Aminor and your basic Am to DM then to G F and back to G or a I IV6 VII VI VII structure. very nice indeed. Arranged fantastically as well as I love those guitars. I was soloing along to it on the Piano tonight.
Cru
Ok I will be the first to comment. This is futuristic and keep going with this. Compelled me from start to finish. I see it's in e major and I was soloing right along with this on piano. It also plays around with the dissonant. There is a lot right with what you have done. I can also hear the potential of this as well. Keep at this one. let me know if I can help in any way, I love this!
Cru
Very good work. my very favourite Annihilation track is this one from Major North. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7nfNooNMpM
BTW I use Audacity (Linux version) all the time. Nice work with it.
Cru
thank you for listening and nice words! I am glad you liked my jazzy style. There is so much of new music I have in my head - sadly there are many work commitments at the moment as well. From that perspective this track is appearing as something very far-distant to me.
I am looking forward to hear new productions from you - I will return soon to the listening.
First and foremost this does not belong in the weird category because it is anything but weird. You have an ear for arranging sounds together to make a coherent song and in this one you have just been brilliant at it. I could go into a rational explanation of what I liked and what I might change (don't change anything BTW) but what I loved about this song is that it captured me for 10 minutes of my time with a cool spirit and energy that was a reminder of Christmas but something beautiful on it's own as well. This Holiday my wife is not well and spending it in the Hospital. As I leave the hospital everyday it takes a piece of my soul each visit. This song has helped me this christmas evening to feel better. And in any work that we may produce the ultimate goal is to touch people emotionally. This tune touched me this evening and I thank you for doing that. Have a great Christmas.

First, I hope your wife recovers her health. I know it's hard, but all will be ok. I'm sure of that.
I'm glad that you liked this track. Even with the disaster on EQ and the stuff that I didn't understand to asidRn, I'm happy that this melody have made you feel better.
Well, the first idea was to make a sad song, and I almost call this song "gloomy Christmas" or something dark. I'm glad have changed of mind.
If you want to thank someone, do it to Xyilent. Without his loop, I hadn't known how to start or what to do.
cool work my friend. song has an ominous overtone in it but well structured chill. Perfectly executed theory. My only suggestion is to change his vocals to be less re-verbed and they won't blend in the background as much. Or keep the verb and add a second line of his voice dry mixed in to clarify his words when the music is blasting at you. But really a beautiful idea and executed very nicely. fav'd
Cru
Hmmm... remix project. You raise an interesting idea. Not sure if I have the energy to go back to this and host the project though. Definitely have moved on to other things now, with good reason. I will keep it in mind if things change though. Thank you for taking a listen!
Absolutely love that phaser-pad. That sound from the late 70's is coming back again. (TY David Bowie.. Blackstar) Sweet Tune you have made.Nice solos from 2:20 on. tasteful and restrained.
Awesome job guys.
Cru
Thanks alot, Cru. I hope my stupidity isn't showing, too much, but I'm assuming the 'phaser-pad' is what our keyboardist is playing? I know of David Bowie, but will look up the others.
Yes, the older stuff does appeal to us, greatly. The newer stuff just doesn't have that "IT" factor.
Always a great pleasure hearing your comments...Please keep them coming.
what stands out for me on this one is the bass line and chords used occasionally give us a minor 7th chord and it makes it more interesting. It must be hard in this genre because many of the songs sound so similar in style and execution it almost forces you to approach it as what can I do to make my song (beat as you say) to stand out but not too much that you lose the vibe of the genre. Well executed
