djpretzel Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 (It should be the first song on the page, not the extended version ^^ Feedback of any kind would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protricity Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 Very simple mix. Lets see if it goes anywhere beyond layering different instruments over each other. NO, I guess not. No variation on percussion or lead or anything. Very minimal song that goes nowhere and drags on and on. Oh, drumloops now. K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digital Coma Posted May 5, 2004 Share Posted May 5, 2004 If you're going to tell us it's the first song on the page, you might want to keep it that way... Not bad sequencing, but the arrangement is sparse and layered; boring. The lead sitar sounds very synthetic and its pitch bends around 2:30 are awful. Good mood setup, but you have to take care of arrangement and mixing. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Dan Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 I'm waiting for this synthetic sitar you referred to. I hear a dulcimer, coupled with some plucked strings, and then some sort of reed instrument. And actually, the dulcimer DOES sound quite real. Oh THAT sitar. Yeah the bends sound pretty bad in some parts. Overall this has a WHOLE lot of potential. Very cool set up, very awesome quality sounds. Just some of the details make it weak. And at least there's variety. And don't worry about the comment about drumloops. He says that to everyone. This song sounds like a good idea that didn't get quite all the attention it needed to bring it to completion. So for now: NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The wingless Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 This piece really is more of a foundation for something than a standalone work. There are a couple reasons I say this. One, the pacing, though purposefully deliberate and steady, is almost too strictly steady. There is no variation or pause to the ever-steady drum march. That, in and of itself, could have led the way for some very interesting moments for improv, or you adding a new feeling/level of atmosphere. The other pittling reasons, my fellow judges have already stated. If you treat this as a foundation layer for another piece (or the same) and simply develop upwards instead of sideways, I can't see a reason to not let it in. But, sadly, as for right now- NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
