1makes2 Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 the link should work............. it works for me and works for people on irc........... ??????????????????????? ill diagnose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozovian Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 It's like vgmusic, it blocks the link but not the url. Copy-pasta! Source is clear and not verbatim in the intro, but I had trouble hearing it further on. The hihats need to sound less sharp and ticky, so work on their EQ. That's what I got so far. Not bad.

1makes2 Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 ok heres an update for you all... the piano at 128 was kinda just thrown in there for measure, for i have mainly been working on the other elements. please feed me! if link dosent work, right click, copy link location, and paste in browser http://1makes2.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/sparkmandrill3.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rozovian Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Still ticky hihats, and the piano used as a lead really kills some of the intensity of the track. The pitch bends and whatever else you've done to it (except the annoying pan thing) sounds great, but even so, it lacks the intensity the rest of the tracks eems to be building up to. I'm not saying you can't use the piano (considering how cool the bends and all that sounds, you _should_), just thawt you need a more intense lead for some of the parts. I suggest you also incorporate more of the backing bits from source in the parts where you don't have a lead. I've tried a few MMX tracks, they're pretty elaborate, so there's lots to take from source. See what else you can use for those transitional/buildup parts. Summed up: More from source, more intense lead. Still not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1makes2 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Share Posted May 29, 2008 yet another update. added a couple instruments and parts from the source. http://www.tindeck.com/audio/my/ujys/boomer1 tell me what you think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1makes2 Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 ok here i added quite a bit, changed the lead and a couple other things. recorded the verse with guitar rig 3 and buried it in the mix so if you can hear the guitar you win a cookie. the guitar is mostly audible during the break. also changed the piano sound to something more realistic, even though i havent got it sounding optimal yet. i still need to write the outro and do some variation on the drums, but so far i think i made some good untz. lol. untz. oh well. tell me what you think so far. and rozovian, thank you for leaving feedback, your the only one who does! lol. here: www.filesap.com/1/sparkmandrill4.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Author Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I like it. However, I feel the melody is lost, and if you cannot shut out the rest of the song, you're gonna miss it, which is a shame because of what you did with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rozovian Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I see Sapph set you up with some hosting. Glass noise crash thing... great effect, great soundscaping that follows. Also, kick and snare are both good. Hihats.... tickety tickety tritickety tickety, guess what I think of the hihats. They are better but still... About half way through, the second section of source - faster synth stuff, more notes, more lead action. Lead is pretty soft, too, needs to be sharper, methinks. Bass in the area that follows - really cool. Lead in the following section isn't quite as good, but it's more audible than the 2ndsection one. More lead action, bigger ending, and consider tweaking the soft lead and using other hihats. That's what I think. And now you owe me two cents.

Blackwinged Saron Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 hey RD, havent seen you in a while, prolly my lack of observation, you're always here. but good to see you anyway. I am entranced. Im doin the DJP. I cant see much that could be done to this. It's suprising really, when i listen to it, i can hear elements of all the stage themes, in particular, armadillo, kuwanger, and penguin. not in the melody but in the beat and the sounds used. chilling... :nicework: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnappleMan Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 It's too obvious that the piano is there just as a cheap intro. You need to stretch that out a bit, maybe slow it down a little and don't hard limit your piano roll to 127 velocity.... Flanging synth at around 1:30 is annoying, you need to reduce the amount of the effect. Beat is boring and too simple. Bass is dreadful Breakdown at 2:40 is nice, but cheesy and cliche filtered synth makes me want to kill myself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1makes2 Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 I <3 your feedback snapple, thanks for the feedback everyone. ill try to finish this soon, with a little more variation on the drums and add an outro. ill keep you posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPZ Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 I really like the surreal, almost nostalgic sound to it. Like a hazy memory or dream, that's just the feel I get from listening to it. Very atmospheric stuff. But honestly, I prefer the simplicity of the sparkmandril4 version. Keep up the good work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1makes2 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 nother update, changed the drums up a lot and changed the bass up alot. added some fx gonna add another layer to the lead for more lead action. tell me if you like this beat more or the previous. thx! www.filesap.com/1/sparkmandrillwhore1.mp3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPZ Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Between the two, prefer the beat of the previous one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
