liked it until 17, then it got all weird 70's scooby doo on me, then after 38 it just got really creepy. Rainbow Road is supposed to be uplifting, not creepy.
This isn't a remix of Rainbow Road, this is a song all on its own. It's a similar tempo to the Rainbow Road stuff though, and I actually have a lyrics sheet for it and the lyrics are about racing on the pretty Rainbow Road! This is entirely unfinished, it needs some more oomph that I can find ways to add.
-
Er... nvm that. I'm continuing this. Someone likes the demo! Lol
-
dead link :/
Yeah dude that was a bad (worse) version of the song.
-
Ok, nvm this then. Another user suggested something that sounds smart.

As far as I know, the only person being rude here is you.
You're being arrogant, ignoring the helpful advice people are giving you (they shouldn't be giving it in this specific thread, but that's not enough to warrant being called rude), expecting people to do work for YOU and calling them rude for not doing so...
It's no wonder no one has offered to help. First step to collaboration: don't be an ass. (and stop generalizing OCR as if we all act the same. That's an incredibly ignorant thing to do)
Saying what needed to be said, here's my advice:
Give us a project file or some MIDI export. From what I can tell it's very hard to hear what exactly is going on in your rendition of the song, it would be easier to understand what's going on inside (what instruments are playing what notes) if we could see it for ourselves.
And guys, seriously, he's not asking for production help, he's asking YOU to produce the song.
Also, I've been on the WiP boards and the "technical stuff" is just to help you. If you don't understand it, that's pretty much your problem. They're giving you the answer or the steps to one, you shouldn't complain. Music production isn't an easy thing to learn, it takes years of learning your tools and honing your ears.
I understand you don't want to produce this song, you want someone to produce it for you. That's fine, just don't be an ass to everyone; if you be an ass, why would they want to help?
No, dude, they're not rude because they don't do stuff for me... they just always talk in a mean tone. And that's my problem. Never really much semblance to niceness.
I guess that if it's gonna take me years to learn how to make just 1 song, then I would imagine that just sharing my idea with people who could do it in far, far less time is a good idea. So yeah, I could probably make a MIDI and have it here soon enough. That'd help people get what going on better?

Okay, y'all, this is my 3rd version!

I don't really care for critique anymore. I like it like this. It's a good amateur feat I think, and this sound is almost as good as I would've hoped for. I'm not aiming for anything groundbreaking here anymore. Of course, I still need to ask for someone to lay down some guitar riffage, and maybe a tiny little solo plz? C'mon, let's try and enjoy ourselves with this one. Not aim for anything super fancy! I'm not going for that anymore.
-
So... I have to do... the ENTIRE THING over again?
Since I don't have any of those things (at least, to my knowledge) nor know where to get them, couldja hand me some links? Unless they're already in FL... yo! Maybe you can reinvent this piece then, since you probably have everything you'd need for it? It'd be way easier for you... D:
-
Ok, got it. I can add a bit more synth in the "chorus" section. And that'll help the piece a bit more.
-
Neat song, but... I kinda got bored halfway through. Nothing was really happening, it was just kinda... stuck... in the beginning.
-
I think you've got the wrong adress buddy. This place isn't a Maid Cafe.
Maybe not, but it's a site for music, and collaboration. I've seen the album guidelines-- turns out you're basically required to get extra composers for it! While I'm not making an album, I'm making a song, and songs make up an album... I think most people here would be happy to help out and do some music too.
Well, if you guys are NOT happy to help out... couldja point me out to a place that is?
-
Guys... not the right place to crit tracks.
New guy, feel free to post on the feedback boards to get some pointers on what you're doing right and what you're doing wrong. While knowing you need a real guitar for a track is a good thing, most guitarists might not care about your track if it sounds too newby. Improve your production skills and try again later.
I don't really know what else I could add... I wasn't going for a really "produced" song, I just did want a little "magical" synth in there withe the guitar as the main focus. That's my goal. I also asked that in case anyone can help the production on the song sound a little less sparse, I'd appreciate it.
And yeah, dude, I have a different thread up now. In the PYO board. Go check it out, maybe we can let this one die.

This song is obviously far from complete. It needs some heavy guitar, and it might need a little more pad synth. It could also use some singing... I could do that probably. But then again, so could you. It also needs a 2-second intro of some sort... that'd add just a bit more meat to this.
So uh... wanna help out?
PS the low-quality sound you might hear with a good ear is because I did purposely make this somewhat low-quality, because I do like music that's just a bit fuzzy. I don't ask for additons to the song to be low-quality too, but if you could, that'd be really cool.
-
Ok, new version will be made, without guitar. This thread can be removed now. XD
-
He's not being remotely difficult' date=' he said he heard one of the chords but the melody was still hard to hear. Don't blame the FL Studio guitar because the honest truth is the guitars are probably the least the problems in this song. Lo-fi is fine, but you still have to pay attention to quality to make it work, you can't just pass it off as lo-fi because it sounds horrible and call it good.
Sorry man, I really don't think you're hitting the marks you want to with this track. The machine gun drums are too loud, the dissonant chords just don't work and everything about it is way way way way way too simplistic. I'm not trying to be a dick, but this song is almost unlistenable as it is now, demo, lo-fi or not.[/quote']
What?! The drums are too loud? Uh... no.
I'm coming here asking for help to NOT make it unlistenable. I just need someone to lay down some beautiful guitar work so I can do the rest... of course, other instrumentation is welcome too. Idk, maybe it would've been better if I just included the beat and left out the guitar for ppl to have a better shot at thinking of some guitar? Do you think that would work? But all in all, I want this to be a good track, and that's why I am here. Asking for ppl to help.
...But of course, they don't. That's what's difficult about users on OC Remix. They are always rude. They talk of really technical stuff and make everything way harder than it needs to be. They never do anything when I ask for something to be done either. I don't get it, because you guys don't do this with other users. Hm.
(PS he wasn't being too difficult in that post, I was just confused because he said he didn't hear a tune but in the previous post said he heard a bit of a tune going on)
-
No, what I'm saying is that I can't really find the tune because of the dissonance.
I would clear up the guitar part first, then build around that
I thought you said you found the tune? :/
Whatever. Gosh, OCRemix users are always so difficult...
-
Okay, well, for one thing I can't really find the melody in this song anywhere...
All I hear is adjacent keys being played all at once, then changing pitch somewhat.
It's not a lo-fi sound I hear, it's the playing of several notes that overlap in frequency without any balance. In fact, sound quality is being depleted only because of the guitar.
If you were to maybe play only the melody notes, and maybe add a fifth in there, then it would be easier to distinguish (and maybe sound quality would improve?)
EDIT: Scratch that. I now here a small chord in there, but you played it so close together (and probably used a bitcrusher?) that it's hard to catch the melody.
So... do we understand that this was made on FL and therefore I couldn't really get any good guitar-like sounds because of this? I'm sorry, dude, I really am.
As long as you know how the main riff is going and as long as you have good enough ideas on how to make this sound like an actual song, then you're all set. That is, if you're a guitar player...
Oh, and btw, the quality was not originally like this. When I saved it I had the quality set at 16000 (it might be called "sample" or "frequency" too... Idk, hopefully, that's a good enough clue as to what I mean) and yes, that's way too low, I would've wanted to increase that a little... but, I still wanted to keep the quality quite low.
And just for clarification: what is lo-fi? I don't wanna be throwing that term around just in case I'm wrong...

Hi, everyone! I just made my account a while ago, but... okay. The thing is, I had this really cool song idea, and so I used the FL Studio to make it. The only problem is... that this song uses guitar, and hopefully I'm not the only one who knows that the guitar stuff on FL Studio is... well, shit. Since I don't play guitar, I ask that a GOOD guitar player can give this song a listen, and think of a way he can revamp this song, like reinventing the solo altogether (please please PLEASE, do a better solo than this!) any kind of riff reinvention is welcome, but try and play a riff similar to what you think is going on here. A drum and bass revamp is also welcome, but I like the sound of both of those already so nobody has to. Um... also, I want someone with a good singing voice to try and find a melody out of some lyrics I wrote for this (some slight improvements to the lyrics are welcome if you think you have a good idea):
"Take me out on Rainbow Road
The “Highway of the Heavens”
Take me out on Rainbow Road
For a Psychedelic Experience
Steer the course to victory
Won’t settle for any less
So won’t you COME ON, and make my dream come true
Let this be the highway I race through
Today, all problems will go away
As I race on Rainbow Road-- if only just for today
Take me out on Rainbow Road
With all the beautiful colors
I’ll be so psyched on Rainbow Road
That I’ll outrace all the others
Steer the course to victory
Won’t settle for any less
So won’t you COME ON, and make my dream come true
Let this be the highway I race through
Today, all problems will go away
As I race on Rainbow Road-- if only just for today"
Link's right here, guys:

Btw guys, no complaining about the terrible quality! While I wasn't hoping to make it sound THIS bad, I did want to have a pretty murky sound in it, as if it was recorded with some lo-fi equipment (because I DO like that sound, actually). I dunno if you can help making your recording sound lo-fi, but guys, if you can, do that! It'd be totally awesome!
A song that needs some more stuff

I made a thread there, and then I saw the description of this thread and thought that maybe I had to use this one instead. That's why I made 2 topics.
