[QUOTE=Rich209;39850808]Nice job, I think the drums might be a bit loud though.

Here is a short little piece.

[QUOTE=ScreamingGerbil;39859957]Updated that little snippet I was working on. Good night everyone!

[media]http://soundcloud.com/gryoss/wasted-raindrops[/media][/QUOTE]

The vocoded voice is nice but I don't like the lead synth that plays during the intro. The beat after the drop is quite nice but I think the high pluck is a bit too high in the mix.

[QUOTE=Zethereal;39861692][media]http://soundcloud.com/xenoyia/luke-gentle-halcyon[/media]

How does this sound so far? It's sorta my first time making a proper song.[/QUOTE]

I really like this but I do agree with Rich209 that some more variation could be nice, but hey to me it sounds great regardless.

I like the ambient pads and effects as well as the percussion, that said I don't like the other synth work as much. Also the pluck at 0:15 in combination with the other effects really reminds me of a flume track, I can't remember which.

I'm working on a little progressive house remix (not official of course) of Mat Zo's Lucky Strike, anyway heres the wip I got at the moment:

There is still much work to be done.

Really nice. It actually sounds like some of the older Mat Zo and this version is far superior too the original. Can't wait for you to finish this as it's sounding great so far.

[QUOTE=Dead Madman;39863773]I know you've likely to have answered this question many a time, but do you mind letting us in on what software you use?[/QUOTE]

Sure, no problem, I use three programs, Sibelius, FL Studios, and East West Symphonic Orchestra. I really want to get EW Symphonic Choir though because it has a feature where you can type lyrics in and it will sing it, I think its called word builder.

I listened through this a couple of times, mind you from a laptop's speakers but enjoyable nonetheless. It took a while for it to stick, but I think once it progressed onto some chords that I didn't really expect, I started enjoying it more and more. It's minimalistic but sustains a feeling as if it has been put some thought into. It's a little reminiscent of a band I'm a fan of, [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9qZ6bCh8jA"]Kim Tak Building[/URL].

Early demo of my new song, what do you think?

[bull04]

Thought I'd post it here too due to the lack of traffic in MGR. My new song was released at midnight this morning! Any thoughts on it?

Done. Should I make a thread to put all of these in when I have an EP sorted?

I'm really liking this song, much more than your others. A complaint I had on some of your tracks before this was the feeling of everything in the song being so "full", where nothing was in the background and there was no ambiance at all. Your new song has some nice background elements as well as stronger hits, which is a nice change for you. Still, I would like to hear different drum samples in the future, since the ones that you are using currently sound a bit generic and overused.

Nice job overall Bull!

Now, I'm trying out different genres so I can overall generalize what I want to make in the future, so...
Yeah. I guess this is my take on asian-esque orchestral electronic stuff. It's not great, and the song doesn't flow nicely, but it's my first try at it. Some feedback would be greatly appreciated.

I just noticed that my toms are out of tune. I'll re-record those when I have the time.

The piano I think could take a much less dominant role and have it really sit there in the background, I think giving the cymbals and toms some more high end on the frequency spectrum could really make them stand together more with all the other instrumentation, they sound sort of muddy right now and it creates a weird contrast between the really glittering and sparkly *whateveritis*.

Something that I think could add a lot to the song right now is having some strings added to the break at 0:55, and maybe have the keyboard be a bit in the background as well, the plucked instrument to me seems to be the driving instrument in the whole song and have it lead the way there as well, gives a contuinity to the song that just makes me want to sit down on a hill somewhere in japan and contemplate life and realize that life is the best thing that has ever happened to me and that I shall treasure it until the day I die of really old age :smile:

I'm working on a little something something that is heavily influenced by the band Fu Manchu, it doesn't really sound anything like them but they are still a heavy inspiration nonetheless and I must say I'm quite proud of how much force it got dragging on forward :smile: I just need to work on the chorus lyrics and then there will be vocals! :smile:

YO NIGGA SIT YO CRUNK ASS DOWN AND READ THIS SHIT IN THE IZZLE!
i am currently working on a video game (doing 100% of the audio as is) and we are looking for people who can do neurofunk/dark drum n' bass-ish//idm ambient///post hardcore-ish music for this. also if you are good at creating and recording different sounds for just random shittery, we will take a look at soundscapes n' shet and see what happens.

AS OF NOW, there is no payment it is purely a time investment until we get the kickstarter going. the game is just in it's early stages, but we have been working almost a full year on it but for the most part it requires you to
1. have skype
2. have it open religiously
3. not be a pedo bear (we almost Took on a few SERIOUS PEDOPHILES)
4. ability to deal with a hyper-active furry rummaging through your personal information (cause bitch i will) you don't have to give me any info, i'll just find it eventually.
5. have a faceboobs. if you do not have a faceboobs, go get a faceboobs and like this page here
[url]https://www.facebook.com/InfestedGames?fref=ts[/url]
6. if you are truly interested just put a status on the page saying "parx sent me, look at my shit (put ur links and whatnot, and i'll look at it)

if you don't get picked don't be awl soppy in your emo corner and slit your wrists. it just just means that its not the genre that fits the mood of the game. the fun part is, you don't know the mood of the game, that way everybody is judged fairly'n stuff.

have a good day.

Damn, that bass. I don't really like the sound of the percussion as it sounds really weak compared to the bass but the composition of it is fine.

I like the sound of the pluck but the lead synth sounds quite strange to me. Also the drums are quite hard to hear, that snare could use some high frequencies IMO.

Nice. It's mixed quite well so I can pretty clearly hear everything in the track. The drums are really snappy which helps make it drive well and I especially like the plucky synth that comes in every so often.

I like it the only problem I feel is every so often a note seems to be really dissonant (around 0:18 it can be heard) which seems to contrast with the happy feel of the song.

I did some more work on my Lucky Strike remix, I just have a few things I'm unsure about... Is it too trancey? Should the break have more/be different?

This is actually pretty nice, but it would be cool if at the 1 min mark you would start playing chords under the arpeggios.

Point taken, will kill the crash. Thanks for the feedback, this is the kind of stuff i need to know but don't often get told

as for it sounding empty that's because its quite unfinished so hopefully next WIP will be better
