Night Owl Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 So I've been working on this Kraid remix for some time now. It's basically your average rock remix right now, as I'm not sure if I want to take it in a more metal-ish direction, or a lighter direction. What do you guys think? http://media.putfile.com/Kraid-56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozovian Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Hm.... Kraid in 4/4... Prefer the original time signature, but it's not important. The second section from the source tune has some key issues, the bass is in the wrong key. Other than that, only the repetition and the "empty" sections in between (and the last note!) really bothered me, arrangement-wise. The bassline is nice, but needs more variation... and the key sorted out. Drum samples are ok to my ears, but need more processing. They could also use some fills, and more hihat action. Other instruments sounds unprocessed. Listen and compare to the good stuff on ocr, stuff in related genres. I'm being a bit unfair, I think those are well above your level. Unless you can plug in a real guitar, you won't get it to sound like that. But aim for their quality, both in terms of arrangement, and production. For example, you could make your guitar sound something like this. So, practice, and come back with a better version. Learn to listen to your own works critically and learn to fix whatever flaws you find. Good luck and make sure to come back, I've seen a clueless newb become a decent remixer in under six months. It's possible, and I wanna see it again, sooner if possible. Nice job so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
