As cheesy as it sounds, my mom and dad. They're both musicians in the Hartford Symphony Orchestra in Connecticut, and are basically the reason I'm studying classical music now. I've always been surrounded with music, I guess it's no surprise that I decided to pursue it as well.
Well, its a huge luck to have that musical ambience at home.
My dad was a hobbyist jazz drummer, but I've never been interested in jazz until now. In fact it wasnt my dad who introduced me to music, but my uncle who first taught me how to use a sequencer. At first i wasnt really interested, but hearing Yasunori Mitsuda's Chrono Trigger OST totally changed that.

Hi there. Im making this thread asking all of you if know any videos/techs/tips on how to sing properly. I've been attemping to sing for the last two years (by myself) and I still suck as much as the first day.
My problem is not with pitch: Only that the "sound" of my voice is not good (neither is bad, but definitely wouldn't sound allright being the lead voice on a band). How to work on that? Breathing exercises? Is it better to pay a teacher to help out? Or is it possible to do by oneself?

Yasunori Mitsuda

Wow, this is a really good mix... everything sounds awesome.
Excepting the samples and the production, of course. Almost every sample is.. crappy
, but the idea is so fantastic it is really worth listening (and downloading) 
Im a fan of this!!
-
This is awesome... fuck... hell awesome.
-
Thank you so much for the comments.... I'll try to have the next wip in a couple of weeks... i have to finish some jobs and crap. I made some changes in the melodic line, now its more resembling to the original... I'll post something once i have made significative changes on the track, and its longer

jezus dude which strings did you use? fucking sweet altho you should move more forward with the song instead of inward, dont get to deep just yet get the whole frame going first
What do you mean?. You mean i should keep developing the same thing a bit more, instead of keep changing? ..
-
Woho!
Thanks a lot for the support guys! I feel very motivated to continue!
Oh yeah.. i almost forgot!
WIP 3 released!
Fuck*ng check it out now!
-
Sounds really cool.
I loved the synths. You MUST finish this.
THe problem i find are the drums!
You gotta work on them... They arent as good as the rest of the wip is
Tell me if you need techno drum loops to work with, i'll gladly share!
-
Agreed, because in the end it doesn't matter where the music is FROM, but what the music IS.
I second that.
-
The first seconds are awesome. The atmosphere you created down there is great.
The idea you've used to guide your mix through is fantastic. But somehow I feel that this is not the good it could be: samples seem to have low quality, specially the piano and some of the synths. Plus, the synth which plays the main melody is extremely LOUD!. Work with that, and try playing a bitwith mastering too.
Also, try on some structure-ing. Add a whole new part in the middle, a variation-section.
Anyways, this is a good job, i like very much the intro and the outro... they were damn original!
-
Drums at the beggining are cool as f*ck!. Awesome effects!
Damn, I need to learn how to do that.. I wanna mix that stuff with orchestra and make the ultimate music of the universe.
-
Cool druming. Nice guitars!
Sounds cool to me, maybe not 100% pro work, but still stuff i'd have on my playlist.
It's the first time this happens to me.. but, I don't know how to help you.
Maybe because you used real instruments.... Im used to work with Fake stuff LOL.

Chrono trigger best rpg ever!!!!!
Good remix.. overally, has a pretty good feeling to it.
Here goes my crit.
Drums are weak. Sometimes you can feel they're looped, and they lack of "sound presence". I'd use a compressor on that (plus... writing more drum variations and humanizing the velocity would really help).
Some parts of the mix feel a bit empty... There are many piano + vox sections that might have been filled with something more: the track goes from a place to another always using the same "piano + vox" bridge. Even the prelude part seems to miss something. Good choirs, though. I really liked them
Oh yeah! ... This NEEDs a bass!!!
On the other side, piano and guitar are really well done, I like the way they're used to deliver such an atmosphere!
So... despite all the badass criticism I'd score this one 8 out of 10

okay, Im gonna commit a kamikaze action.
YOUTUBE POOPS SUCK
Crap.. im gonna get my ass quoted.

In other news, I am in fact Italian.
We don't care. Stop posting.
In other news, I still love that level complete music. Needs moar remix. And by remix, I mean rocking cover.
PWNED
(sorry, it had to be said somewhere)

Its all part of a marketing strategy... why would they call it.. Duke Nukem..... FOREVER?
Because the development of this will take forever . MWAHAHAHAHAA
-
This is really cooooool! The idea is pretty interesting, and you've got a really good voice. With some practice, in no time you'll be singing Epic-Metal !
-
This is really good stuff. I liked it very much.
The chiptune part in 1:44 was EFFIN AWESOME!
However,. the samples you used seem not to work so cool with this one!
What programme are you using?
I'd advise you to get these plugins : East West Stormdrum (for the drums), Garritan Personal Orchestra (piano) and East West Quantum Leap Orchestra Gold (for the orchestra)
-
Woo.. this one is really Smexy stuff dude.
It's very good music to listen to and relax!
So, here comes the bad ass criticism:
Maybe the drums should be a bit louder (not talking about the crashes.. but the snare, the kick and toms)... And it seems you need a stronger bassline. Sometimes it's missing, and its volume its really low!.
Other than that, bud, keep the good work! this is almost ready to go!
-
Thank you for your support!!
Seph Seraphim: It still doesnt sound better than the original! but.. one day it will... MWAHAHA LOL
Spc1st: I Think you're right... I'm playing a bit with structure and all that, let's see if it works!
Oh yeah.
WIP 2 released!
Fuck*ng check it out now!
-
Oh man, for some reason I thought this project got dropped. I'm so glad to be able to listen to it!
I'm a sucker for piano; "31 Seconds" is easily my favorite on this album.
Yeah, mine too!!!! LOL
Woo,... it's so awesome this finally got released.
My true favourite is Adrian's Sleep by Analoq. Dammit, he's kicking some serious ass, it seems to be taken from a N.I.N. Album.
Has anyone given up on duke nukem forever?
