Description : I just recently purchased Logic Studio (thanks Planet!) and it is amazing! This is the first thing that I have done in Logic and it is an orchestral piece. Let me start by saying that I DID NOT WRITE OR PERFORM ANY OF THIS. Sorry for the caps, just want to be clear about my role. I sequenced and produced and mastered. The pieces were already in place, I just tweaked them a little and set the pans and effects to achieve the desired results. I think it sounds amazing, but obviously this is not my normal style. Always learning and reaching for something new is the goal. As always, thank you so much for listening and comments are always welcome and appreciated. Peace, Six

Engineering is sometimes overlooked and or unappreciated.
You did well here.
Nice imagery created by your mix.
It's a challenge many film score mix engineers deal with.
You handle the Logic score with great sensitivity.
Very cinematic.
Moments of tension require nurturing and you did just that.
Scene development.
The ever delicate build to a pay off.
Nice attention to detail.
Quality work here.

This was awesome, dude. You had me open from the buildup. I don't know what else to say except I hope you choose to build on this idea and go for a full-out symphony because your arrangements here were excellent. DL'd and Fav'd.

That sounds damn nice man...I've always wondered about Logic Pro - I'm using Soundtrack Pro (basically a beefed up Garage Band) and was thinking about making the big leap to Logic- hopefully it's not too hard to grasp. The track you have sounds really good...pro cinema stuff. peace.

Well this piece is defiantly amazing, employing a lot of powerful movements as used in so many film sound tracks. Especially the sub-dominant to dominant. A really moving piece, how exactly did you put this together? how much of the song was already in place or whatever? Overall i loved it and will defiantly FAVOURITE IT. make more tracks like this ok!!

as everyone says it is very cinematic......the sort of music that puts a lump in your throat as you feel the pride of whatever the heroes of the flick are about to or just have achieved.........fantastic build up......and the reason for this being sooooooo good is the way it has been arranged,mastered and produced as much if not more than the samples used.
Well done

Man i can imagine this in a war movie,especially at 1:36.

I imagine that when that part(1:36) starts we see a squad walking in the middle of the jungle.

at 2:41 i imagine like if they are resting after that big walk at night and then they are talking around and the main guy is just like " i am not gonna rest until i finish xxxxxx" And again At 3:44 they are still walking through jungle

Amazing piece of art your music is

so it means you had a complete partiture in midi data ?
sounds like you did it with a good sampler which has a lot of natural orchestral samples........that´s funny cause i also just have finished some piano pieces by Erik Satie and did an instrumentation and arrangement for ensemble....cheers,PC

Sixfingermusic replied Unknown
I am using Logic Studio which has a GREAT sampler. It is all cut and paste and pencil in MIDI tones for different parts and such. Lot of fun, a bit tedious at times, but the end results are definitely worth it right? Can't wait to hear the stuff that you have worked up recently. Thanks as always for listening and taking the time to comment. Peace, Six

Hello six,
Ahhhhh, a nice orchestra sound. I liked it a lot and it would be great for a movie background I believe.

I have many settings on my Korg Karma keyboard for Orchestra and I suppose I should explore them.
I am glad I checked this song out as it is very relaxing to me today.
Thanks for sharing it with us all,
Randy

Sounds like a plucked Chello at first very nice. I like the harp that comes in too. This should be a soundtrack to a movie. Very powerfull. I enjoyed it very much. Faved. Don't stop giving us that Sixfinger guitar. Continue to do both. You are very talented and not just your ability but also your ear for hearing in your head something them being able to put it in the real world so the rest of us can hear it too. You are very creative. And I always enjoy listening to your stuff. Now to keep reminding myself. "Thou shalt not covet thy nieghbors software"

Sounds like this should be at the end of one of the Tom Clancy movies, like "Patriot Games". Very good job, I think with a little bit of mastering it would be hard to tell real instruments from virtual but really amazing, Good job.

Totally Tom Clancy! I can see that real easy, but I prefer "Clear and Present Danger"..."How dare you sir!" I love music from big time films, I hope someday to be skilled enough to actually compose for one from scratch. Thanks for the comments and the listen. Peace, Six

Funny that you say that because music sounds best in my car as well. All the stuff that I really like I give a listen to there. Sounds more full and rich that way. Of course when I get the money together to buy some really nice monitors...thanks for listening and taking the time to comment, I appreciate it. Peace and love, Six

Description : This track is the first two sections of what will (hopefully) be a three-part piece — essentially a suite. I am posting parts 1 and 2 because I think they are ready for feedback from Looperman members. Part 3 isn’t done yet because it requires Human League style vocals from a singer with a distinct British accent. I have the melody and lyrics worked out. I sent a private message a while ago to a Looperman member who I think has the right voice for the job. But, haven’t had a response. Until I find a vocalist for it, I can’t finish the piece. In any case, the total file size of the complete piece would be greater than the Looperman limit, so it will have to be split into parts anyway.

Parts 1 and 2, in fact the whole thing, were inspired by acapellas posted here on Looperman by Jacques Demers:

https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/6105/love-love-love-ououou-by-jacquesdemers-130bpm-dance-acapella

https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/6093/dont-keep-back-2-by-jacquesdemers-107bpm-hip-hop-acapella

https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/6091/dont-keep-your-love-away-from-me-by-jacquesdemers-107bpm-hip-hop-acapella

If you haven’t checked out Jacques’ tracks yet, you really should. He doesn’t set them up as “featured” so it might be easy to miss them.

The harmony in Jacques’ acapellas sounded very “Beatle-ish” to me, and that made me want to try my hand at doing a George Martin style treatment. I remembered that ScottsCovers here on Looperman had mentioned an instrument called a Mellotron, which was used by the Beatles, the Moody Blues, Genesis, along with other groups of that era, so I decided to use a VST mellotron as the primary instrument for Parts 1 and 2.

The acapella in Part 2 was in a different key than the one used for Part 1, so I needed to find a chord progression in Part 1 that would modulate the key. Jacques gave me some advice on that, which you can see in the comments on his first acapella.

Part 1 has harp, mellotron flutes, clarinet, french horns, and my attempt at a Penny Lane type trumpet solo (but much simpler). Part 2 has a string ensemble, solo oboe and trumpet in unison, and some Daniel Langois type processed guitars. Both parts were recorded at 60 bpm, largely because that’s where the acapellas seemed to sync best. However, I played the instrument tracks freestyle (rubato), so the tempo actually varies somewhat. Definitely not quantized!

There is a storyline behind this track. Part 1 is the blooming stage of a relationship. Part 2 is about the relationship in decline. Part 3, with vocals, will be about ending it.

I’ve included the transition to Part 3 (which will be a more traditional synth pop section) and just a bit of the first verse backing instrumental so you can get an idea of how things are headed in the final part.

I don't want commercial use and you can use it for youtube project.

____________________

This songs is like a normal day in my life... as my brain point of view. The first part is the morning with strings, horns, clarinette and flute. It's a joyful and beautiful day ! Then, there's a sort of "bridge" between the morning part and the afternoon. Afternoon is awesome and chaotic at the same time, that's why I added dubstep in the middle of the song. Finally,the evening and the night are the second bridge and the end of this piece.

It's the first song I mix Orchestral and Dubstep.
Whole s music maker Jam with Movie Score 1/2/3 and Dubstep (i think it's Vol.2) loops.
Mix = Music Maker (Soundtrack Edition)
Final details = Music Studio

It's a Raw Mix because I really like this song and I want to make a better version ONLY with Music Maker Jam (without mix or whatever, execept for the sound quality).

Feel free to comment :)

Description : I created this track for the love I have for puppies. I love them. Everybody does. This day I went to this park nearby my colony and saw couple of them and thought of making something musically. So this is what i came up with. This time I haven't played much with FX or Technical aspects. Just pure simple & soft melodies. As it is unmixed & unfinished track, request you to boost the volume a little. Hope you all like it! Cheers! :)

Composed in 2015-16

All parts of the story written and inspired by a dream. A very personal story. I can't sing,so the emotions are in the notes. This is the instrumental version. The sheet music was written for a group.
The Expanse is the beginning, a journey into the unknown, a risk.

Description : First one I posted on here not too long ago when I tried this out. Would love to dabble more with this type for sure as I love the orchestral/cinematic tracks I find on here! Great loops I found by MINOR2GO that I threw together. I just added the bass drum and slight fx here and there. I would consider this cinematic as well. Thanks!
