Liontamer Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 http://exotica.fix.no/tunes/archive/C64Music/GAMES/S-Z/Wizardry.sid - Subtune 1/9 Checking out the SIDtune, the thing sounds ugly as hell. Tons of downright ugly note choices. In any case, the sounds were very cluttered together. The strings in particular were seemingly supposed to sound grandiose but didn't get there. Arrangement hits 1:00, then rinses and repeats. Some additive ideas on top of the chorus at 1:51 in the form of a quasi-electric guitar or whatever that was, but it only served to clutter the track further. Last hanging synth guitar note at 2:23 was very out of place at the end. Learn to create better separation of your sounds. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Israfel Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 I'm a big fan of Wizardry, I really like the title theme, and this is a nice, enjoyable cover. But, it's a cover, and while there are some nice additions, I don't feel there's enough new material to qualify for this site. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcos Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 This did sound just like a cover, and the track itself was pretty short. Everything has already been said really. This track needed a lot more orginal ideas. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrayLightning Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 This is actually pretty neat. It reminds me of a less sophisticated Israfel. So what we have here is a very conservative arrangement, if it can be called that. Please add your own spin to this mix. Our arrangement guidelines have been detailed here and elsewhere that I'm starting to tire of repeating what we're looking for. -Change the structure, or form of the mix. Add your own new, compositional elements of the mix, such as melodic and harmonic expansion. Tempo changes, etc. Genre and instrument change is also part of the package. The key is to add your own unique spin where your creativity is exposed. On top of that, I think this piece is short and underdeveloped. There's also no dynamics, everything is loud. It's almost as if every note has a velocity of 125 throughout. Needs more work. NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
