It isn't. It's a nice demo that can head somewhere.
Bit loud on the bass, I would like to hear the main rhythm more :v:
The song is gonna be much better than that.
Im gonna try to add strings (violins) and stuff
Have a really basic demo for Zing:

I'm going to add some more stuff distortion-wise, but I have no idea what to do about drums etc.
Woh, that start is great. Seriously, work more on that I recommend.
There is definitely a vibe I like about what it could be, can't explain it. But that start will definitely be electrifying :smug:

did this remind anyone else of Phoenix Wright?
[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;28460283]It just sounds more real, I don't mean to offend anyone.
Like, imagine if Enter Sandman was made using fruityloops.[/QUOTE]
Hey man, I agree with you 100%. Metal songs made with a computer usually aren't all that good.
The fact of the matter is, though, I don't have experience playing bass, guitar, or drums; I don't [b]own[/b] a bass, guitar, or drums; I don't have the money to [b]buy[/b] a bass, guitar, or a drumset; and I have all these ideas [b]now[/b] and I don't want to spend a few years learning how to play said instruments to get the ideas out.
So I make do with what I have.
I'm writing out the plot for my song. I have some musical ideas written out, but I haven't stuck to one yet.

I imagined moustache as a cheesy slap bass porno sounding song
Made this idea for optimistic:

Any good?
the snare/handclap whatever is WAAAY too loud
[editline]7th March 2011[/editline]
but otherwise, yeah, it's pretty optimistic.
Hah, I like making tom-tom grooves too much. This wasn't made for any reason in particular, other than me having the riff in my head and wanting to write it out.
I'm almost thinking I should make a slew of these, about two or three minutes long each, and put them bundle them together or something. What do you guys think?

I'm new to the scene of making music and have never really shown any of my work but I made this song for DURGS. It's some meta as fuck gangstarapinstrumental

Would love some oppinions seeing as it is my first real song :)

Is nice, really good vibes. Keep working it on it :buddy:
Another option for the drugs rating would be a really trippy '60s psychedelic song

Okay, that's cool man, sorry about that.
Tried something for informative. Basically a bunch of guitar harmonics. I call it, "The More you Know".

Here's my attempt at friendly, it actually ended more as a lonely thing instead of a friendly one, but that's how I interpret most of the friendly ratings anyhow. Also, if there is some sort of award for most bland drumbeat (if you can even call it that) I totally deserve 1st place.

That's a nice demo... pretty cool.
I advise to work on what you are trying to tell rather than how you are trying to sound.
Nicely played though, enjoyed it.

Add some suggestive female vocals over the top (wordless stuff like 'ooh' and 'aah'). Maybe even sample a dirty video.
I feel people are far too worried about the music sounding good, it doesn't necessarily have to be great music in any way. I just want something purely in direct relation to what you are representing.
You can't argue making it pleasurable to listen to isn't a bad goal to shoot for, though.
That being said, I'd like some criticism on my stoner piece posted a page or so back, not so much on how it sounds as a song (I know it's not that good), but if it really fits into the rating. To be completely honest I'm not sure.
I would try and make a trippy song, like Alchemist's [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9YcPuCv0aY]Austral Spectrum[/url], but after several failed attempts in the past year or so, I've decided I simply don't know how to write trippy music. :v:
I already commented on your stoner piece, it's awesome. :smug:
And I personally think that would fit the rating if you worked on it.
If I could have a few people record some lines for me that would be cool. If there are any girls here that could sound motherly, that would be very nice. Or if you could get your own mother to do it, that would also be pretty nice. I just need five different voices. I'd do them all myself, but I think it would sound better the other way.
I'll post the lyrics and my progress on the song soon.

Why does this remind me of The Trial by Pink Floyd?
:smug:

Do you mean lines/voices ala voice samples, such as in Dream Theater's [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mA6Jf4pRmp8]Honor Thy Father[/url]? (05:17).
If so, I [b]may[/b] be able to do it. I have to do some funky shit to get microphones to work for me (have to use a different machine, just for starters). Don't count on me definitively, but if you can't find anyone else, then I will most likely be able to do it. Whether or not you'll like the results I can't say, though. :v:
So here is the first draft of the lyrics. I'd need the voices for the phone conversation, and the lines aren't exactly, just the general idea of what is being said. Those lines aren't musical, so yes it would be similar to Honor Thy Father. I was thinking more DSOTM with it though, but like a phone conversation.
[quote=lyrics] [B]Verse I[/B]
Waiting for the peace
To take me
in it's arms
Wanting to warn those
Who think there's no danger
Cause it can harm
Limbs sprawled out on the floor
No way I'd go for more
Cause I'm too high
Went on past the numbness
Now who's the dumbest
That's not a word
Sense of apathy
With the curtains closing
I'm not afraid
[B]Chorus[/B]
The light at the end
Is actually pretty dark
As my thoughts escape me
I catch one
I'm fucking smarked
[B]Phone Conversation[/B]
*Phone ringing*
Friend: Dude you sound so gone... Hold on, let me put you on speaker phone
Poison control: Yes this is poison control... Sir, you're high, just sleep it off
Mom: Are you doing drugs again?! This is why I kicked you out. If you can't handle a short small shock, then what can you handle?
Random Person: Who the heck are you?
411: 411 how may I help you?
Me: I'd like to contact myself
[B]Verse II[/B]
They don't believe that
I've seen my own death and
They'll all be crying as I take my last breath
I'll open the airway to sensibility
Where you'll find the answer
Has been sitting in front of me
Wait that doesn't make sense
I'm on the defense
From myself
Please help
[B]Guitar Solo[/B]
[B]Chorus[/B]
The light at the end
I though looked dark
As my thoughts raped me
I realize that
I was fucking smarked[/quote]
My rhyme scheme probably seems a bit funky, but that it is intended to try to mimic the state of the mind. I'm likely to change the lyrics drastically, especially if that rhyming scheme isn't working out, but as of now it is just a first draft and the overall idea.
