WIPs / Re: Early WIP looking for feedback
« on: January 06, 2016, 06:38:25 am »
i really love this slightly retro feeling you've got going on, so i might suggest a teeny tiny little touch of static on top??

i'm not entirely sure how i feel about the way you introduce that saw lead - the suddenness of it clashes slightly with the really smooth keys underneath. maybe stick a filter on it, or start it out drenched in reverb that gradually goes away?

this needs a super lush female vocal, in my opinion.

totally freakin agree with this.

just out of curiosity, did you record those vocals yourself or did you grab them from somewhere?

DUDE this is honestly so interesting. its already pretty close but i feel like some more lofi effects on the intro chords would add a lot, sort of like what Tame Impala does on a lot of their synths on Lonerism, if you know/ like them. i think continuing the song and going into a more steady beat, and bringing in a guitar (maybe an acoustic one could be cool?) could be really interesting, but the sounds you've got going on already sound v v unique. i like it a lot!!

ahhhhh i freaking LOVE tame impala, kevin is so clever with his sounds vroeuhvohe
thanks for the feedback!

man this is super interesting! very unique. i think it could be more powerful with the right chord progression in my opinion. production and instrumentation sound great. but that heavy section could be super powerful with those sounds and the right notes. also, might want to try adding a melody that's very prominent. seems lacking in the melodic area.

just my opinion. love it though! great job  :)

is there anything you can suggest about the 'right' progression? thanks for leaving a reply! :D

well honestly i'm not hearing anything that i'm immediately against - this is pretty damn nice.
the percussion and the arrangement are really nice and tight especially - i feel like you just want a pat on the back ahahah :))

maybe it's a little dry - even though i get that you seem to be going for a more minimal vibe.

i'd be fine with this song being the way it is really, although i agree some kind of bass on top of the sub could be really nice. maybe the piano could be more prominent in places? in some places maybe like a chopped up music box or bell could be cool??

oh wow this is really nice!

i personally don't care so much if the progression is a bit common - most people don't notice other than really elitist producers, and they don't really matter do they?

i find the structure mostly fine, although i agree with anhydrite that it might be cool if the percussion is briefly taken away when the piano is introduced. maybeee the build up portion is a little long, although i very much like it the way it is.

to make the intro just a little bit more interesting, i think a little synth glissando with delay every 8 bars or so could be nice - or maybe a clap with some reverb. something that's not too complicated!

well, here it is!


i'm fairly happy with it, but i feel like it's incomplete somehow??
my problem is that i dont really have any idea of what this needs. maybe some glitches or something, yknow?
i thought about getting some mates to record some guitar or bass for it but im not so sure now...

so i guess i'd like some ideas, possiblyyyyyy someone to team up with to get something really nice out of this.

alsooo i'd love to know if the foley and reverb is a bit much, because i get the sneaking suspicion that my cheap headphones dont always tell the truth. thanks! :DD
