erineclipse Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 What you have here is good but you need to add more rests and embellishments so it can breathe imbetween melodies. And if I'm not mistaken there seems to be a midi lag going on, maybe you are using midi and non-midi at the same time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you're suggesting rest and embellishments between parts that are more like transitions I'm assuming right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you have too many phrases that run into each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickomoo Posted January 14, 2011 Author Share Posted January 14, 2011 I edited the first one, but now I think I really am experiencing midi lag.... badly. I have to rerecord later >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeysersozeH Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 I edited the first one, but now I think I really am experiencing midi lag.... badly. I have to rerecord later >_< I like the terror.. its crowded.. it makes it haunting.. very haunting.. and eastern cuz you almost chose a arabian note scale, i dont know music theory so i dont know if im even close with this in theory.. but this is how it feels.. nice piece you can go several ways from here. Im not to enthousiastic about the percussion though.. they dont sound as a part of the mix... more like something outside of it if you know what i mean.

For the first song, Tremedous trouble, I actually don't know the scale honestly, I haven't studied theory in years. Essentially I took a c minor cord and a D major cord and played notes on those scales. With the exception of the guitar which is cromatically playing various notes. Out of curiosity when writing this I used a scale finder on these chords and it mentioned a G melodic minor scale, but I don't think that's accurate. And you're right about the percussion... I only added added it to try to see if I could loop the song, rather than writing a looping point into the song. I'm going to rewrite both from scratch though, eventually. I updated the first song again, I'm testing new instruments. The second one I'm hoping to finally fix this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
