Ridiculously Garrett Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) A WIP of this remix, originally this was a jazz quartet version, but it was getting dated (and albeit not that good) Now, a jazz trio + hip hop elements, this melody is fantastic. Use of block chords in the beginning, followed by some close voiced chord movement by the second chorus. Going to work the arrangement into a solo section and then back to the head.

Chadlee Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I'm a huge Sonic fan but I've never played any of the Advance series so I'm not familiar with the music. I'm always down for some jazz though. The timing didn't bother me at all actually. This is pretty smooth. I think you have room for a lot of improvisation and different instruments if you want. As it is right now, the track is pretty open and much of it sounds more like accompaniment. Since you're still working on it, you can always flesh it out. I honestly didn't even know what a melodica was until I looked it up. I definitely want to hear what that would sound like if you decide to update this thread later on or something. Good start.

Ridiculously Garrett Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Yeah that whole open section I'm gonna get into the studio and record some melodica. I might go back in and flesh out the piano part a little bit. Some parts I'm happy with, but others not so much. Thanks for the feedback. EDIT: I'll probably add some tritone stuff and some passing chords as well, especially during the chorus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridiculously Garrett Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 Update: I added the melodica solo I desired and am working on getting a drummer to make drums for me so the drums don't suck. Just a little too much reverb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridiculously Garrett Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 I got around to working on some older stuff since I recently acquired the full version of Kontakt, which means I finally get to use Django. I added guitar to this track and updated it a bunch. It's a completely different mix now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
