GoophBaLL Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I guess I'll start by saying I've never posted here. So hello all. =] I did a jazzy-ish remix/cover of the Soul Calibur 2/3/5 song "Confrontation". Wanted to put it up for review. It's a bit significant for me because 90 percent of my style is electronic in sound, and like 95 percent of my tunes are original compositions. A non-electronic, non-original song is way out of my comfort zone, haha. But I was hoping that if this was decent enough, it could maybe be considered for submission to ocr. Here is the song on youtube: or soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/goophball/goophball-soul-calibur-2?in=goophball/sets/remixes Here is the original for comparison: ANY kind of feedback would be appreciated. I know there's lots of knowledgeable people here. Anything from instrument choice/sound to mixing critique. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neifion Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) Hey there! I'm new here myself, so welcome. I liked this, particularly the bass and percussion throughout. Solo trumpet sounded a bit artificial during the chorus at 0:30 and 2:01; you used some nice articulations there but I feel like some of the transitions between notes could be smoother. Overall real good though and I like the upbeat energy. Edited May 5, 2013 by Neifion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timaeus222 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I agree, the trumpet at 0:30 sounds extremely fake with all the grace notes. The bass is a little soft to me. I think I hear a really soft acoustic bass, but I can't hear the attack. The piano at 0:56 and 1:11 sounds really mechanical to me. The brass at 1:25 sounds synthesized. I could hear a little PWM. 1:38 and on is a loop... :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
