  1. This is great stuff, and great scoring as well! Surprised no one has commented.
  2. Experimenting with some writing techniques. Adagio for Toilet: The poo must be taken! https://soundcloud.com/jared-hudson/adagio-for-toilet
  3. EDIT: My first true attempt at house, mainly trying to get my mixing and production skills up to par. This is mainly a bunch of influences, anywhere from Kaskade, Madeon, Porter Robinson, and maybe some Deadmau5. I'm not the world's best mixer, but it will be done professionally in a studio here in NYC. EDIT UPDATE: Song is pretty much finished, but as a rough mix. Full mixing and mastering will come later. New title: Enforcer https://soundcloud.com/jared-hudson/enforcer-rough-mix
  4. Hi, just wanted to give you a shoutout and that your song from Kirby Super Star - Ska Buffet (All You Can Eat: Clean Version) was used in a MAGfest 11 video posted on youtube. Congrats, and it's also a great remix! Here's the link!

  11. You did a great job. I pulled some muscles raving a bit too hard. Here's some videos we were able to shoot during the event. Sorry about some of the audio in interviews. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-34HuQh91U http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7gCYMST6Ic
  12. Was my first MAGfest, and was blown away by the concerts and music. Those raves were bumpin, and I think I pulled many muscles dancing too hard LOL! Had to leave Saturday afternoon, but plan to be back next year. It was great meeting everyone.
  13. Made my first attempt at the funk genre, although I crossed a bit of smooth jazz into it. Don't worry, Kenny G is nowhere to be seen. http://soundcloud.com/jared-hudson/flunkin-the-beat
  14. It's not that hard to believe. You can distinctly tell by the anti-aliasing, particle effects, shadows, hair, etc. It doesn't look "perfectly" pre-rendered, but it's still amazing. Look at Beyond Two Souls (makers of Heavy Rain) that was announced at E3, and it's current gen on PS3.
  15. I suppose it's the perspective of how we see this tech demo. I'm seeing it from the graphical triumph. If you're talking about Square-Enix quality of "gaming", I agree with you. FF13 pretty much killed the franchise for me, and their games have hit this "gameplay cheese" era. The stories suck, and the formula has been recycled too much. Graphics wise though....holy shit.
  16. You people are so spoiled. Hard to please? This isn't an actual game? "SCREW THEM!" This is impressive no matter how you slice it. It's a game engine showing the BEST cinematics the industry has ever seen. Who cares if it's on this generation or next gen of systems. THEY ACHIEVED A LANDMARK GOAL. YES you should be excited for this, because it's where the industry is going. Tech demo or not, this should raise interest, not diminish it. You people only see what's in front of you and pick it apart. There's no speculation, anticipation, or excitement. Pathetic.
  17. Started playing around with ideas. I think I was getting inspired with a cross between Deus Ex and Yoko Kanno (Ghost in the Shell), if that makes any sense. http://www.jaredhudson.com/music/spycity.mp3
  18. I gotta say I'm pleasantly surprised. From reading some responses on SoundCloud, I can hear the John Adams influence, although I think I heard some Aaron Copland a bit too, LOL. Nice use of textures and rhythms, really pulling an idea together. However, for my own taste, I wish there was a little more movement in melody and chord progressions, but it still sounds great!
  19. I felt compelled to give this a quick review and shout out. Somebody listens to Dream Theater! The influence I hear is uncanny. The production and performance on this is top notch, and would argue it's one of the top guitar rock / progressive rock pieces in all of OCR's history. That's quite a compliment, considering there are 1000's of remixes. Not sure if you did line-in, or live mic for this. Regardless, I'll still say keep it live if you can! The sound is so much purer and unique doing so! Great drum programming, song structure, and flow. Congratulations on a fantastic piece of music.
  20. Something a friend and I made years ago in college. Had my studio, his guitar, and a lot of beer. I always wanted to make something cheesy epic fun like this, thinking it was for a racing game or something. This isn't considered a finished song by any standards. We just wanted to get it hammered out! Even threw in some vocal stuff later in the song for more fun! BEWARE OF SHREDDING! (starts going crazy at 1:10) http://www.jaredhudson.com/music/MDMA%20On%20Sunday%20WIP3.mp3
  21. While I think this has potential to be an amazingly hot track, I feel as far as House goes, my ear is wanting to hear a better flow with Michael singing, and the slamming beat, with a more constant rhythm and sync. The daft-punk style over compressed sound, and random breakdowns have their qualities, but I wouldn't overdo it. MJ already wrote a great song, so don't completely drown him out of the picture. Overall, it is still sounding hot, but I'd streamline the compression and steady beat a bit more, especially the main chorus.
  22. I agree with this, thinking of the days of Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey, with no need of a vocoder or auto-tune bullshit. We can thank Cher for setting the new trend. The conditions you speak of are ideal recording scenarios. If he has no money to PAY a talented singer, or can only find a "really good one", that should be fine, especially if the singer he finds is the style he needs. Unless you're a professional recording artist in the field, the shopping list for professionals isn't as big, or even there on no budget. All I'm saying is in the realistic perspective, if he can find a GOOD singer in the proper style, and only needs minor Melodyne adjustments, then it's totally worth it. If the singer can hit the notes 90% of the time, the digital transformation will be barely audible, if at all, even to the trained ear. I'm thinking purely production value at the moment. However, I do appreciate, as much as anyone, pure talent, and without the need of software to make them sell records.
  23. False, it's mastering. I do agree that SOME people use these plugins as a crutch for talent. However, if you're putting out an album, sometimes you still need to use it for 5%-10% for perfection. That one flat or sharp note can really break a song. There are good singers, and GREAT singers. I don't see him getting Alicia Keys for this. I see this as a mastering tool, nothing more, nothing less.
