ambinate Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 this is really interesting...there's a lot of stuff going on that i dig, but i think it wanders around a little. it might benefit from some general tightening up. the arrangement might also be a bit too liberal for this site at the moment (i could be wrong, though - i'm no expert on that). i can definitely hear the source material in the opening stuff and the use of the chord progression later, but it doesn't get super explicit until about 2:40. but i think it's working well as a song - it feels natural and it's got a nice atmosphere and mood. i also really like a lot of the sound design, and the effects programming at around 1:30 and 4:40 is awesome. there's a lot of really good stuff to work with here.

Rozovian Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Mostly nice sounds, but the louder drums sound distorted and noisy, and the 3:13 bell/string thing sounds terrible. The guitar underneath isn't that great either, but would probably work ok with a better lead. The arrangement flows ok imo, there's just the 2:42 transition that bugs me and it's not _terrible_. The intro is quite long and cool, but the mood and effects don't make up for the lack or things happening melodically. Shortening it would benefit the track overall, I think, but there are ways to just make those parts more substantial instead. I can't hear the source at all until 1:33 where it's quite far i nthe background, then it comes in at 2:34 as very conservative. From 3:13 to 4:39 I can't hear any source either. Definitely too liberal atm, but if you'd get source into those long sections without it, you'd have a really cool remix here. I'd use the e-piano or add a flute to bring bits and pieces of the source into the track. Loads of potential here, nice work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
