[QUOTE=Biscuit-Boy;28903968]Well, as a flute player I have to say I feel weird about the flute sound, sometimes it's so real and sometimes it's strange. Also, for the build, I'd try doing a two part duet-style flute harmony repeat at 0:30. If you have some sort of midi-format that you could send me I'd write out what I'm thinking for you in a heartbeat.
PS: Houses Underground=Saucy, I like the more upbeat style you're doing. I prefer the slow beautiful ones but Houses is so good too. Also have you thought about writing some scarier ones to compliment nightfall and creeper-parties?[/QUOTE]
That's a great suggestion. The only wind instrument I've played is a clarinet, so I don't have a comprehensive understanding of flute dynamics. Unfortunately I can only send you the complete Ableton set, and unless you have Ableton, that would be of no use to you. Maybe you could find a similar example on YouTube to show me? I think I know what you're getting at, but if I had a point of reference, it would help me out.

Yeah, just a really basic melody with step up or step down 3rd harmony, maybe some nice crescendos. Here's a midi file I plucked out quick that has some flute harmonies in the 2nd half. [url]http://www.mediafire.com/?uqw2whwgw3i9qr9[/url]

Okay, updated build with flute harmonies and harp roll :buddy:

Harp roll is awesome, I love that, and the flute harmonies are really nice as well, at the risk of sounding a tad optimistic they're really pretty. It's nice and subtle because I almost didn't notice them the first time, which is a good thing, they fit it and are well balanced. This is going places I have no doubt.
I'm glad you approve :buddy:
Yeah I went through a couple different ideas, and they all sounded too forced/unnatural/loud/excessive. Keep making good suggestions!
[QUOTE=Biscuit-Boy;28805376]Out of appreciation haha, I listened to all of your songs on loop while I made it. I'm not an expert but maybe this is fitting :p I'm thinking of doing a nice forest-like scene next, but if you have anything in mind I'll do my best.

I don't know about you guys, but I see a black planet in space surrounded by stars, which is pretty fucking cool.

Yeah, that's what a few people told me in the art thread, so I guess I mostly have a future in involuntary space-themed art haha :d
Finished the 7th song :buddy:
Wow. Amazing stuff.
To be perfectly honest, I wasn't expecting much, but these are really nicely composed pieces. Totally getting into more ambient stuff right now, you have my download, and would've had my purchase :)
As I've mentioned before, I think charging would be bad business at this point. Maybe someday, years down the road, but not now. :)
So excited for tomorrow when I should get a chance to listen to these. I'm so glad you're still making new songs.
These are wonderful.
I am also amazed of how kindly you throw them out, one by another! Make more seriously! These are damn enjoying to listen to while doing stuff.
Seriously loving this. Is it allowed to post this in the music section? If yes then you should do that!
Grass that Grows and Diamonds Find You have inspired me.
I wan't to make music too now because of the way those two affected my emotions and feelings, it was beautiful and awe-inspiring in my mind and now I feel I would be doing an injustice to myself by not making music. Thank you Matix/Renin.
