Title: Not So Fast Post by: folderol on June 11, 2008, 10:59:09 PM Well I bottled it on the KVR contest this week, I couldn't come up with anything original that suggested speed (no not that speed) but having not joined in for several months I was determined to make some sort of contribution.
I came up with this :D Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: Laguna Rising on June 12, 2008, 06:27:40 PM Nice pads with deep sounds (to build the atmosphere) and good leads with different sounds
I enjoyed this 1-minute-track. 8) I'm a bit confused by the theme and I think it's not easy to render the idea of speed :-\ Cheers Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: folderol on June 12, 2008, 10:17:00 PM Nice pads with deep sounds (to build the atmosphere) and good leads with different sounds I enjoyed this 1-minute-track. 8) I'm a bit confused by the theme and I think it's not easy to render the idea of speed :-\ Cheers Thanks a lot. I'm thinking that later I'll do some more work on this. Somehow I reckon I've managed to produce the end of a tune ??? Yes it is a bit hard to work out just what's wanted. I'm hoping to hear what everyone else has done during this weekend. Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: MarioD on June 13, 2008, 12:27:02 AM I agree with L.R., nice pads, good leads and super tone choices.
I think you should plan on expanding and finishing this one. You have that start of a really good idea/song here. PS- I didn’t think the song had any resemblance to speed of any kind! I just liked it! Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: Wyatt on June 13, 2008, 08:08:25 AM Very easy for me to slip into this one.
I hope you will be making a longer version.. ..the ending of a song?? ..interesting way to look at it. ..or maybe the beginning? 8) Wyatt Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: elwoodblues1969 on June 13, 2008, 11:13:44 PM Will,
Fascinating choice of sounds and immersive chord progressions-very pretty. :D This piece is off to a great start and hope to hear the polished version soon. 8) Thom Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: kara on June 14, 2008, 07:16:26 AM The end of a song ??? No not at all, a great intro to something big !
k Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: folderol on June 14, 2008, 04:08:27 PM Thanks again guys.
OK ok I'll work on extending it :) @kara I was thinking of this as an end, probably because I try to make composition entries have a distinct close rather than a fade out, but looking at it again, it would take very little change to make it 'open'. PS Those pads are from four of my Zyn voices played synchonously but at different pitches: Ice Field, Breathy Pad, Smooth, Full Strings This is then passed though an instance of jamin with a 7dB notch at 800 Hz. It is a synth sound I've been trying to achieve for a very long time! Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: Wyatt on June 15, 2008, 12:18:42 AM . It is a synth sound I've been trying to achieve for a very long time! I understand the quest completely.. ..and what a fruitful one it was for you in this song. 8) Wyatt Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: Oren on June 15, 2008, 08:39:24 AM Big, lush production!
All the life and tonal complexity of a thoughtfully wielded electric guitar, but with no sore fingers or damage to the furniture.... :D (so, Zyn has teeth, eh?) Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: folderol on June 15, 2008, 02:10:10 PM Oh yes!
For further info see what I'm about to write under the 'software' heading :) Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: SoundKlops on June 21, 2008, 03:28:11 PM Hi Will, my new brother. :D
Nice piece of music. The funny thing is that I made nearly the same intro in August 2007, but never made a whole song. I think we are brothers in the spirit. 8) :D Andreas Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: Laguna Rising on June 22, 2008, 03:24:15 PM :o Oh that's almost identical ! :D
Title: Re: Not So Fast Post by: folderol on June 25, 2008, 08:59:49 PM Wow!
I thought the first phase had a 'familiarity' about it, but just couldn't explain it :o |
