k-wix Posted August 27, 2009 Posted August 27, 2009 still having PC woes... which should be alleviated in a few weeks. Planning on getting a new laptop (hopefully an Alienware M17 ), and transferring all my stuff from my current PC to my new one. Won't be much longer, I promise A full release is gonna have to wait though... I hope everythings going smoothly with your PC troubles.. They can be so finicky sometimes. Quote
SoulinEther Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Hey! Any Updates? lol If this is really going to be part of a project, then it's probable we won't get any updates till the project is released. :/ Quote
AkumajoBelmont Posted October 15, 2009 Author Posted October 15, 2009 Okies, I still haven't gotten around to fixing my old PC yet, but I thought I'd record the track from my iPod (it's not line-in, don't worry ), and put it up. It'll do for now, I apoligize for any sound issues or whatev. It's pretty much finished, apart from some balancing, effects and stuff to do, but apart from that, it's pretty much done. Enjoy. Edit: It'd help if I put up the link... http://www.box.net/shared/i54tmv3c9q Quote
SuperiorX Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 It's nice to finally see an update on this! It's sounding great! The last portion of the song is sounding a lot fuller now compared to that last update (from what I can remember of it). I like the high pitched synth that I hear in the background (I think that is new, yes?). It adds a bit more depth to the instrumentation. I'll have to go back and listen to the previous WIP to pick out all the other differences, but overall it's sounding great! Quote
Nubioso Posted October 15, 2009 Posted October 15, 2009 Same thing I thought when I first heard the piece....excellent song, everythings great....only one problem.....the auto-tune thats straining like hell to keep some of those vox in line sound awful. I know you've already said "It'll be too much work" but seriously, if you've already put that much work in it..then you need to either loosen up the automatic settings on auto-tune or just go through and manually do it as it's just complete crap when you hear it bending like it does, which sucks because your voice goes nice in this song besides that. Oh well, good luck if you ever submit this. Quote

For the most part it works for me but there are a few segments where it's more obvious.Does sound nice though, with the new synth addition in the chorus. Quote
AJ-enova Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 Been nearly a year! Any update of progress? Quote
Dafydd Posted January 6, 2010 Posted January 6, 2010 I know I could look it up myself with a simple forum search, but - is this the most popular/anticipated wip ever? Quote

AkumajoBelmont Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 Finally got my old PC fixed, and transferred all my stuff over to my laptop! Gonna get around to tidying it up and that soon! There was never that much left to do on it in the first place, so booyah! Quote
AkumajoBelmont Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 Actually, I just realised I think I lost all my vocal files... SHIT! I may have to do a complete re-record! The music is all intact, but all my vox files are gone. Aw crap. Quote

The music is all intact, but all my vox files are gone. Aw crap. Seriously Man! - The Last WIP was pure gold! There is no chance it would get rejected by the Judges panel And If you want to work on it to simply add more (Theres no room for improvement lol everything is sound!) then I say stop, because it may end up too cluttered if you get me. I say put it forward... Quote

AkumajoBelmont Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 Ditto. I really don't think that there's a lot more you could do to make this sound better. I think you should sub it already. You reckon? Wasn't gonna add more, but was just gonna clean it up... but if it sounds ok to go, then maybe yeah. I'll try post a cleaner version of the last WIP up then... not today though, maybe tomorrow when I get home from work! Sweet Quote
DjMystix Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Brilliant!! This is the absolute most amazing song I've heard in a while. Man, there is sooo much to learn from you! 1000 thumbs up! No need to re-record vox, just submit it. There is not even the slightest of possibilities that it can get rejected! Quote
DjMystix Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Robbie! What have you done man! I can't stop listening to this. Its like as if Pet Shop Boys were to create something new in 2010, it would've sounded something like this. This song is way way.... way better than all the crap I see on tv these days. I want more of these please! Quote
AJ-enova Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Can't Wait!!!! Remix of the Year!!! How crazy would it be if it appeared on the Home Page a year to the day after you first posted it in the Forums Quote
KougarLOB Posted January 23, 2010 Posted January 23, 2010 Also eagerly waiting for this on the main page. Heck, I'd pay for a 320kbps copy. After playing WIP6 for a friend she reminded me about a Staind song of the same name: For You, from Breaking The Cycle, 2001. Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_You_(Staind_song) I don't know if using a similar title is an issue seeing how "for you" is a common phrase. I think it's fine, ...just ya know, ...passin' it along. Finish whatcha gotta and submit it! EDIT: Linkin Park and Three Doors Down both had songs called Runaway. Quote
Sir_Snooze Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Man - this is probably (almost certainly) a pass. It's freakin' awesome, dude! Someone down there (too lazy to find it) said this sounds like the Pet Shop Boys - I'd say this is better. I honestly can't think of any critique, so all I'll say is - I can't wait to see this on the front page! Quote
Dafydd Posted January 24, 2010 Posted January 24, 2010 Can I ask - when you record or post-process the vocals, what does your processing/FX chain look like? Quote
AkumajoBelmont Posted February 8, 2010 Author Posted February 8, 2010 So guys and gals... submission quality??? http://www.box.net/shared/i54tmv3c9q It's the last version I have intact... Dunno how much more I can do without doing a complete overhaul... I've lost a fair amount of files I've had for this Quote
AJ-enova Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 Yes! Yes! YES!!! Don't doubt yourself man!!! It's done its perfect!!! Easily one of the best remixes out there! Submit it ASAP!!! Quote
SuperiorX Posted February 8, 2010 Posted February 8, 2010 I really don't see how this remix could get any better! Great great job! Quote
