Dafydd Posted September 17, 2010 Share Posted September 17, 2010 I think some heavy, single feedback delay on that saw lead would improve this a lot. Bass is on-beat (1 and 3 rather than 2 and 4, I would have preferred the latter) and really boring. Percussion is pretty cool. The latter half with the organ solo and the distorted lead is terrible in comparison to the first half. The ending is also terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Mythrandeer Posted September 18, 2010 Author Share Posted September 18, 2010 Thanks for some of the comments, especially the tip about the saw line. Could you please explain why you thought the latter half of the piece was terrible? What was terrible about it? What would I need to change? Is this a technical problem within the production, or is this a difference of aesthetic taste? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E-Bison Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Gothic trance? I don't think this has been exploited enough, clearly. I dig the way you change the melody during the middle part, but I think you should stick to the original harmony during the intro, or at least have the original major harmony note come back later, just to show you know.... you know? Also, it adds variety. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I may, it just... sounds a lot worse than the first part. There's this high-frequency thing going on there that really grates on the ears. And the lead is overpowering and reminds me of a MIDI. I'm still an amateur at this myself, but I can tell you that much at least. As for the ending, I think it's a little drawn-out, and that zinger that comes in at the end is kinda cheesey, but that's just me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
