I wholeheartedly agree with the user below
What you got going on is great. I love the melodies.
It's a shame that there is some clipping going on. It looks like you need to do a little online research regarding headroom and the techniques you can apply to avoid unwanted distortion in your mix.
Otherwise, I enjoyed this a lot. Keep it up!
Never heard of clipping! Thanks for the feedback, I'll start doing some research right away!
Thanks very much for commenting; I really appreciate it!
Excellent!
It's got an awesome late 60's, early 70's vibe. Have you heard of Traffic? It reminds me of something Steve Winwood might create.
It's great. Get some more instrumentation and some vocals in there!!
i like those decades! and i like singing too!!! hmm your review shall be greatly considered. i always did think of this song as retro in some respects.
Sweet intro!
I really like the intro but when it kicks in it really feels weak!? This is a bit of a disappointment because you're expecting something huge. Not to say the material is bad. I guess it's just an EQing issue or maybe stick another synth part to fill out the sound. Would be nice to be met with a brick wall to the face!
Louder got it. I will probably make that change tomorrow. I agree it could be louder.
Amen, brother.
That's some pretty interesting drum glitching you got going on with the old amen break.
Not a lot else going on though, right? I mean, you didn't glitch the piano or violin. Just the drums?
Still, great skills!
I don't really own a lot of drum loops, so i downloaded an Amen Break collection. My buddy sent me the piano/violin piece for me to mess with. I sliced the Amen break, and then not so much "glitched" it, but broke the breakbeat. Its nothing special, but i'm glad you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more to come :)
Is that a didgeridoo?
Massive can be a royal pain in the ass, sometimes. What's up?
I'd say the major problem in this piece is the real lack of dynamics. It sounds like you've applied a heavy limiter to the entire track?
Other than that everything else seems to be in order!
Yeah, shaping and compression are usually the last thing I worry about. The only major compression currently on the track is sidechaining the kick to the main melody. Since there isn't really a bassline, pretty much everything sounds limited. But thanks for noticing that! :D
And no, it's a glitched flute on a C3 octave :P
Notbad.
The beat is fairly interesting to begin with but needs variating a lot as the repetitiveness kills it.
The bass notes overlap and clash which is pretty off-putting for me.
The slide-guitar type lead melody is nice. Then I realise it's a piano sound that you're pitching up and down. Sounds cool.
Overall, I like this piece up until the 2 minute mark. Then I feel like there should be something different going on. Different chords, a key change.. new instruments. Perhaps just more going on in the latter stages.
Still, good work.
thanks bro! this helps me make better stuff in the future :)
It's a very beautful piece.
It's an ode to the beauty of a new life. But, if you're depicting birth, shouldn't there be the feeling of blood, sweat and tears in there somewhere? Along with a screaming woman? Just a thought..
Actually, there is a hint of that! The section from 3:27 to 3:45 is the actual moment of birth. You can hear that the chords have clashing notes within them.
I'm glad you ejoyed the piece, and your review is much appreciated!
<PS>
Yup
Sounds pretty Clock Towerish to me!
I guess I succeeded then xD. Thanks for the review!
Wow.
Dude, if you actually composed this then hats off to you. It flows pretty well! Playing is also pretty good.
I'm impressed. Look forward to more, and congratulations. Coming from a married man, good luck for the future. :)
Thank you very much. Yeah, it's all played/composed by me. There's a couple of bum notes in there, but overall I'm really happy with the recording. Thanks for the score.
Very interesting!
I like the sounds you've using and the detuned, dissonance of it all.
Also, can I have that beat? I'd love to play around with it myself..
