Wade Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Hey I think the title is pretty self explanatory. I'd enjoy some feedback. I was really trying to capture that MIDI pizzicato of the original in the arrangement. You'll see what I mean. Enjoy! Quote
Wade Posted April 21, 2008 Author Posted April 21, 2008 I rather enjoyed this, good job. Thanks, I appreciate the listen. Quote
Brithor Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 That was quite good! I liked it Seemed a bit choppy at some parts, but pretty good overall! Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 I like the way it picked up at 2:30 or so. Also, the very rapid strumming at 3:17 was impressive. My only critique is that the transitions between variations (if you will) are abrupt -- you could use more transitions between them. Still, it sounds amazing! Quote
DarkeSword Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Pretty freakin' awesome man. Always nice to see some virtuosity and creativity in a sea of "hay i can play vg songz on mah instrument" videos. Very cool Quote
Wade Posted April 21, 2008 Author Posted April 21, 2008 My only critique is that the transitions between variations (if you will) are abrupt -- you could use more transitions between them. Haha, yeah you're right. That IV -> V / #VI when I modulate down is a total cop-out. My bad Thanks for the feedback, everyone. Obviously I think highly of the OCR community's opinion(s) or else I wouldn't post here. Quote
Hausdog Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 I didn't know they made electric ukuleles. It's very pretty, and it sounds like you picked exactly the right instrument for the job. *nice work smiley* Quote
SynthesizedStampede Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Dang, that was pretty awesome. Nice thing to listen to when you just wanna chill, and points for doing it on the uke. Enjoyed it very much Quote
Less Ashamed Of Self Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 You play your instrument very well. I was going to critique your use of the pinky anchor, a bad habit my classical guitar teacher strictly attempted to get out of us, but then I remembered that the ukelele has 4 strings. Anchor away I guess. Quote
BardicKnowledge Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 You should refine the chord changes a little, maybe add in a rhythm section (or not -- I think this could stand on its own with smoother transitions), and work this up for the site. This place could use unique sounds, and your playing is obviously up to the bar. Maybe posting this in the WIP forums would help get a few more opinions if you're interested in the idea -- again, IMO you're definitely capable of it if it's something you want to pursue. Quote
