something mellow

its still very young in its evolution, but this is the idea i put together the other night. going to spend some more time on it over the next couple of days... just wanted to get some feedback.

cheers,

those guitars/fake dulcimer things sound thin and tinny and awful, they could use some velocity changes as well

perhaps you should download some guitar samples, or a refill or something

ok. so you don't feel this one much.

i've got plenty of samples... i like sound design much more... playing with the synths, knobs, sliders, all that...

the velocity changes helps.

and, sure, i can fatten up the harpsichord sounds. maybe i'll take an undertone and lay a separate track beneath it... just wanted to get that delay effect....

thanks for the listen....

cheers,

ok, so i've updated this track based on beneboi's comments... which were helpful.

let me know what you think of the update.

cheers,

eric

I like the elements, but it's way to dense from the beginning, and doesn't develop. I'd like it a lot more if it started out more sparse and then you introduced complexity and more elements bit by bit. It kinda just sits there right now.

That said, I really like the sounds and actually never had a problem with the tinny sound, etc... Like those shaker sounds coming in bone dry... nice.

i didn't notice much of a change in the second version

i didn't think either were too dense up-front, though

i like this track in both its iterations

thanks for the listens....

i am wondering about what toy_sun said... whether it stays static too much or is good enough in structure as is....

did a re-listen... I guess I'm always saying stuff about structure, 'cause I don't DJ, so my music has to work on it's own... anyway, I like this, I'd just stretch it out, make it take longer to get there..

Hey, are you going to give me some feedback on my stuff?
