Esperado Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 What musical device or element most fascinates you guys and why? For me, It comes down to drum programming, and melodies. Im not so great at either of those so i find it amazing to see people who can make melodies and drum patterns that really click with a song. more specifically though, well tuned snares, and hi hats always draw me into a song.

Garpocalypse Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Aural 'splosions. I will never tire of hearing them no matter how cliche they get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelCityOutlaw Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Melody. By far the most important element of music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timaeus222 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Sweeps and drones. Any nuanced sweeps and drones tend to draw me in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimpazilla Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Deep, groovy basslines. Sweet sine-ish portamento leads. I could live on that, alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frederic Petitpas Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Man, it is so hard to answer.. I guess it depends on the period of the year we're in ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liltommyj Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Deep, groovy basslines. Sweet sine-ish portamento leads. I could live on that, alone. Oh man, ditto though I'm a little more partial to square portamento leads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dissidia Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Melody. Although it's (usually) not the melody alone that does it for me, it's the biggest factor for me getting goosebumps from listening (which I really like). http://youtu.be/XlsWk-9UGT4?t=5m20s Like that part for me the first times I heard it, just eargasm straight up. Or Attack on Titan with the first opening (the second one too but not as much), the sung melody along with the lyrics is just the best to me, not to mention the instrumentation and structure of the song and the visuals of the opening, I just love it.

Fishy Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Serious answer: 'Rhythm' guitar solos, that aren't really solos but still kick ass. Edit: Why my timestamped link no work . 2:45 in the video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ectogemia Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Either the bassline or the chord progression. Nothing sets the mood quite like those two elements.` Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
