Sound Design / Re: Make The Weirdest Sound You Can!
« on: April 25, 2016, 04:50:58 pm »
I made this weird ass shit back when I was first learning to produce

It's definitely got a weird sound.

No worries!  It's working now :D

Interesting tune!  It's kind of chill, but has some dark elements that are also a bit driving.

The second time the kicks come in, there is another sound that lands with the kick.  It sounds almost electric guitar like.  I want more of it.  I want a melody from it.  It can mingle with the kick and really give you a solid growth from the previous sound.  As it is, it sounds a bit too much like the first section.  Really nice conclusion with the piano!

Keep it up!

I really like this!  I also like orchestral and piano stuff, so the length of that section didn't bother me one bit.  The switch back into guitary sound is kind of sudden though.  The last phrase in the progression (the full one) sounds really good to me.  I guess I just don't like the way you transition into and out of the breakdown.  In both places, it's a bit random and sudden.  The music could end at each of those spots.

Thanks for the thoughts Artic.  I do definitely enjoy Soundprank's work.  I've started (but not finished) his recent mixing tutorial on sonic academy.

I spent all morning working on the first build up.  I feel I could still improve (or rather, create) drum rolls to link sections together.  My attempts thus far have not been pleasing to listen to.

Too much?

Glad you liked it :D I worked on the bass to give it a little bit more movement.  I used to have 3 synths all doing the same thing... now I've split it up, so they play with out 1 or 2 of the synths a lot of the time.  To me, it feels like it moves more.  Also did a bunch of other stuff so check it out :3

The group went from 2 people to 4 people recently.  Their new remix played in their group therapy session is amazing in my opinion.  Really love it.

Those belches just get me.  I'd love to know how to make those section of their songs.  The chordy climax is also good in this track.

Dig the bass and the drums too, but you're lead is too loud I think.  Take that down, then bring the whole track up.

I agree the arp needs some automation on it.  A filter and delay/reverb can help a lot there.

I think the lead is a bit loud in the second half.  I'd also consider bringing the arp back in some.

Keep it up!

I'm certainly not a Trap or Dubstep dude, but this feels like it has way less sub bass than I expected.  The kick and snarey sound are both plenty loud, but I could barely hear your sub hold the note from the kick.  I think just boosting it up in volume a ton would help you a lot.  But also take my advice with a grain of salt!

Hello!  I'm new here, but been producing on my own for a few years now.  I've heard (and feel) that my composition is ahead of my sound design.  So I guess, if you have thoughts on sound design (or sound selection in the case of samples) - please share them.  I'd be open to any feedback for sure, just saying where I feel the most weakness.

Hope you enjoy it.  I was inspired by modern Anjuna, but also the Interstellar theme (stay).

edit: i did a lot of tweaking!  pretty much every section has changed slightly
