I love that bass !
Nice take on Greg's track SH. Bit of a latin Jazz flavoring.
Really has loads of commercial potential. I need to go and check out more of Greg's stuff. There's so much of an influx of new talent here now, it's hard to listen to it all.
Keep us posted on this one bro.
Unbelievable pipes Carole. This is the first track I've heard of yours, so I have to make a point to check out your repertoire. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I have no idea what this song is or have any familiarization with Bregovic's work but I do recognize and appreciate a beautiful voice.
Thanks for letting us sample your amazing talent.
Hello Neomorpheus,
No need to feel embarrassed at all, please !
None of us knows everything and everyone, huh ? :)
I do thank you for your very nice comment (and surely undeserved !).
Peace,
Carole
Spiv I love the energy and the aggressive nature here!
I couldn't help but ditch the headphones and crank the volume on this baby! I don't go full tilt on many track samplings, but when I do, its on.
Yeah you really packed some awesome "electro-synth-esis" into this. And I especially love how you drive it home there around 4:45.
Your a 100% total electronic renaissance man.
I'm definitely plugged in.
Hey NM, I really appreciate your words! I think that is one of the failings of my albums, is that different songs entice you to hear it in different ways... you know headphones vs hifi vs computer speakers etc... I take a different approac on most songs, so it makes sense. Notice the things I listed though, and phones are not mentioned... I have no way to test this playback, and hopefully will never... I'd rather not have a phone at all than have a computer in my pocket. Glad you cranked it loud, I try to make songs for exactly that setting, where you feel like turning a knob and rockin it. The outro vocals were very indulgent, and the track might not have ever been finished if it weren't for the need to make them right. Your words are very welcome, thank you!
Well here I am just waking up, grabbed a cup of coffee and decided to check out some tracks and this is the first one I listen to. I hope the coffee kicks in soon cause this put me back in la la land!(haha)
A beautiful and relaxing melody. Very interesting drums at the intro. It does bear some resemblance to Legend of Zelda.
Great track Orlando, now I'm off for a second cup of coffee !
Hey Evan, this is loaded with some far out strings and things! That intro reminds me of an 80s song by a band called Diesel - "Sausalito Summernight".
For me this has sort of an Arabic or Middle Eastern vibe to it. Yeah, pretty neat effect there with the Wah, you could have stretched that out a bit more for sure!
I Dig it man !
I will be listening to your Sausalito song now. Gotta know.
Interesting you say Arabic. I never had any kind of intentions for that. I'll take it!
The wah was short because I was getting clips all over the place. Pedal's wah is a bit crackly. You can hear a few toward the end of the line. I had it go linger, but it was distracting to me. I'll be messing with pitch-shifed wahs a bit more now.
Wow TG, this is tight!
I really dig those blues pentatonic runs. Very cool over the hip hop groove. You don't hear much of that. At least I haven't. I heartily agree with Katz and DJ regarding more separation between the bass line and that synth. The bass is loosing the battle there. It may not be just a volume thing but I would want the bass way more dominant. Of course its up to you but play around with it and see what you think. Good luck with this and I hope you give us a listen to the final edit.
Thanks...
Looking for and found a sound of my own I think, can't get away
from sounding a like because of the gear...
But you don't have to play it like everyone else, nowhere near the
box...But I love the Pocket... :-)
As well the bass was not done by me, so I can't tinker with the main
track to much...Start trying to pull the bottom and you will pull
mud with it...sorta...
Time will tell if the final will be posted...
Don't know if its heavy enough to be considered Doom Metal maybe Doom Punk !
I dig the guitar track but wish there could have been more chord progression or a bridge. Great job on the vocals, really adds to the sinister or macabre element.
I think it is more Dark Gloom Rock but i am not good in genres and i am really not into Rock and or Mestal at all :)
Last metal concert i enjoyed was somewhat around 1984 with
Corn and Ozzy and Iron Maiden and two others. They played in a big sports hall on two stages, so it was almost 7 hours in one go :)
Almost enough for a life time
This track wasn´t planed in any way, so i had no influence on the music at all. I just grab Phatkatz track and start working a bit on it. Maybe there is not much progression but i feel like it fits good to the overall feeling of the track. A little solo could be intressting but thats Phatkatz work :)
Thanks for your kind words. I ##### Burt enjoys your "avant garde" same then me
Some awesome production in your version AD. Much more interesting than the original. I like the glitch on the vocal too. Yeah man, as mentioned you've got it a bit over compressed so its really effecting the dynamics. Give it some head room and you will notice the difference.
I only know the radio versio, which is linked in the forum maybe the original mix is more interesting, dunno. Tried my best in this case. Fixing things and watching videos (i thought I know how to use a compressor... HELL NO!!).
Hey Spiv !
Man this is crazy ! It does sort of resemble chip tune in a way. Great job in developing the melodies and keeping it evolving. Some pretty high pitched ear testing stuff in there too. I felt myself wanting to raise my hands left and right along with the panning !!
Nice cutting edged track, I dig it !
Hey Neomorpheus, good to hear from you on this track! There are logic chips involved in the construction of this synth, so I guess it could be classed as chiptune. I always think of chiptune as involving the sound generating chips from old games such as gameboy and atari stuff, but I think the way it is perceived is changing. I'm glad the melodies sound like they are evolving, because underneath it all it's pretty simple. I guess it's high pitched in a way, I think it's more the span of the harmonics, as the fundamental pitches are not all that high in relation to the human hearing spectrum. Put your hands in the air! Am I right?! Thank you for the listen and comment my friend!
There's something strange happening here on these waveforms ! Geo I really dig this track man. Did you use the keyboard to create or is it programmed. I definitely have to give you props on the FL Slayer lead, that intro note did some damage to the ol' ear drums but it was worth it ! Very interesting mix, oh and the vocal track is tight too. Like the subtle glitches. Yeah man I would suggest giving it a once over on EQ but don't drop the levels much, it needs to punch. Oh one more thing, where'd the title come from? I'm from Texas so, just curious.
All programmed
I called it texas destroyer because that's what I named the harmor synth I used for the bass ages ago xD
My naming conventions are a bit sporadic.
Yeah man this is an extremely well produced track !
I totally dig the similarities to a few classic horror themes. Also love the "cha cha, ah ah's" !!! The dub elements are nicely done too, not too over the top. Great job LSD !!!
Lots of cool packed into this one Cru. Love the big piano intro and how you transistion into the pads and arps there at 1:38. I was just about to drift into a nice chilled trance...ahhhh . Then WHAM ! You slapped me back into consciousness with that metal whip and bang thing! Very unexpected. Really sweet composition here though with some very interesting twists. I liked it.
Hey Denis, yeah man very nice melody here.
Azzy mentioned the dead space there at 2:25. I also would suggest adding a few wobbles and some other elements to offset the repetiveness. Its definitely a real nice foundation here.
Awesome track man, whoa I love it !
Very underground sounding groove with an amazing amount of layered effects and sounds. This took some time and effort.
Very good bro, I'm totally digging it !!!
Yeah man, nice sublime Deep House. It does bear resemblance to the Route 94 track. Man you got some serious skills for your age, you definitely need to keep at this. Sometime in the near future we will all be telling stories about how influential we were in helping you make it as a big time recording artist!!
Really cool track Jody. Nice melody that builds and ebbs and keeps the suspense going throughout. Tasteful use of effects that really creates a tension and presents the mood - Something bad is happening here.
Good job bro.
Really nice track here, perfect club mix in terms of progression and tempo. Sounds good through the headphones as well as the monitors on my end.
But as you say the kick and bass needs to be pronounced and I actually disagree with Phyruis and think you have some room to punch them up a bit more if you want. But that's just my opinion.
