Guest greenbank Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 sounds a bit muffled beat-wise but not too shabby, maybe add a big tasty bass noise to carry things forward a bit? is it clipping a wee bit too?

goffer Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 i feel it, when that loan some beat started i wasnt aware it was part of the song i though someone was shooting a gun off in the distance, which is cool i think. you did well with this beat when it finally comes alive, maybe you can spend all the free time before hand and build it up, give the song some more character. It is missing something though, maybe you can expand on the beat or something, or a loose beat with some sporadic fills.

Guest mrx Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 i think you can try using different drum samples and making a simpler beat...maybe slow down the bpm, too. your track has some good ideas in it, but needs some tweaking Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/14395-something-i-was-making-today/#findComment-292579 Share on other sites More sharing options...

lo-fi Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 I really like this.....excellent work kaen. I really dig those synths and the beats fit nicely imo.

Guest yan_g Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 like the synths but i didn't find the beats fitted that well, didn't like their sound and the sequencing either. i think their should be either more electronic, or more analog. before the beats started i was expecting some changes in the chord sequence/harmony. and maybe some unfiltered (or slightly filtered) square or sawtooth synths to contrast with the paddy ones. my two-pence ideas :) Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/14395-something-i-was-making-today/#findComment-296811 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Franklin Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 i wouldnt have expected this kind of music from you kaen. very nice. i would love some north american indian tribal beat and chanting with these synths. maybe i'll explore this. i like it!

Guest Skinko Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 I think the problem with this is that it is not hypnotic enough to draw you in. It almost is but isn't quite. It is something i think is important within music like this. All the elements are there it's just lacking a certain something. I would be interested to hear this when it's all done.
