Description : Here is my 2nd finished song. After you guys gave me such nice comments on my first I was anxious to get another one done. This is a fairly short song. It has kind of a modern horror movie soundtrack sound to it I think. I wasn't sure what genre to label it, so I will just call it weird, because you probably will too, haha. I composed the whole thing, all the instruments. A couple of the instruments are made from sounds I recorded myself. For instance the long spooky sounding high pitched whine was originally me running my finger around a wine glass. I used Digital Orchestrator Pro, Cool Edit Pro, and FL Studio 8 (demo version). I hope you enjoy it!

Creepy track, you have the atmospherics down well but I would throw some more effects on that percussion, it's a bit flat

Its a really clean production man. Good job, a little more compression on the drums would be nice but I like what you've done. Keep it up.

Beautiful,haunting, melodious!The wine glass is such a brilliant idea!I'm normally clutching one when I work(Helps with the nerves)but I never thought of recording it.It's these brilliant discoveries that sets some music aside from the rest.There are muscians all over the place -but talent is rare.You have both the skill and the talent to be a huge star!

i love a lot of things in this track! i also love a lot of things in genral, but that does not detract from the overall awesomeness of this track :) I like the ambience that is created, the reverb you used on the vocal samples, the drums you used, the slow attack synths and the chimey layers on the pads! it all comes together really well, and the guitar/bass sound is a lot like some of Tools stuff! Great work, keep it up! check out my tracks sometime? -Lorin xD

words can't really describe how much I enjoy this. It's kind of calming. I love everything from the intro all the way to the end.
For some reason, I pictured some Sci-fi movie in my head while listening.

Wow... did you do that on a single take? Impressive! Your track reminded me of a Japanese horror film. It was very good. Waiting to scare my shit off from your next tune.
RayKoefoed
RayKoefoed replied Unknown
Thanks lo, I am happy you said that. I made this song after watching that Shutter movie, by the same guy that made The Ring, so the fact that it sounded like a japanese horror film to you makes me think I am learning to put what is going on in my brain to music. Thanks.

Heres what it pictures for me:

Walking down a lonely and dark path in the woods, suddenly everything starts to get smaller and smaller. As if the world is collapsing in on itself, suddenly out of no where a bright lighted figure pulls you to safety. It seems you where very close to death, and you've been revived.

love the track :)

RayKoefoed replied Unknown
That is a great analogy, thank you. It is my opinion that one of the greatest things an artist of any kind can do is create something that the meaning can be interpreted in a different way by each person. Your comment is inspiring because it makes me feel that I accomplished that a little bit with this song. Thanks.

Thanks for the review Sonny. I had just watched that movie Shutter the night I started it, so I think I had ghosts on the brain. That must be where the eeriness originated.

Zalg 19th Jul 2008 19:39 - 16 years ago
Yet again, you fail to give me a chance to criticize. Awesome song! And I was wondering what kind of program or VST you used to make the drum effects, it sounds nice.
RayKoefoed
RayKoefoed replied Unknown
Thanks again Zalg.
To be honest I don't even know exactly what a VST is yet. I guess there are a lot of them in FL Studio, but I don't really know about much other then reverb, chorus and equalizers. The way I did the drums was combining 3 different types of kicks, and same with snares, and I just adjusted the volume of each until it sounded like what I thought sounded best to me. I had 18 different tracks worth of noise for this song, I was worried it would be to much noise, but as I moved things around to lay it out how I liked it didn't seem to be bad. Thanks again for the comment.

Ed provided the unfinished, basic track...I composed and recorded the long intro using different synths and then added piano (well to the fore) and some brass arrangements along the rest of the track (no violin this time...hehe) and then did the final mixing to wrap it up as it is presented now. I hope you will enjoy it and we both appreciate your listening time and your valuable comments:) Otherwise all thanks to Ed!

Description : Dark, slow, ambient, cinematic jazz with funereal piano turning into something much funkier, psychedelic and beautiful in the second half. Out of the darkness and into the light, you could say. Instruments: electric guitar + bass, lots of synth sounds, including a horn, double bass, another big legato bass, pizzicato strings, two types of piano, a heavily delayed slide guitar instrument, zither, synth arp, one brushy drum loop, kettle drum rolls and 4 programmed acoustic drum kits. This is quite a special track for me and is only the second I've put in the cinematic genre. The more you listen, the more it changes (it even has key changes) and the last three minutes are really quite far out and should probably be longer. Best track I've made for a few months. Interesting thoughts and reflections appreciated. Free sex for the best reviews...

Description : 4!_(07@2nd) harmonic protocol reboot sequence

This track is an elaboration of dgalantic’s track “Starting Over 0172257.” It is almost entirely comprised of loops by other artists on looperman. The newsreel in the intro section is from public domain footage of the Vietnam War. Prince Fatty chimes later in with some words of wisdom. The track was sequenced with Mixtikl and edited in Audacity.

Loops from the following artists are included:
1. ThatJeffCarter’s guitar “feedback 197765”
2. three of Nightingale’s harmonica trills: “angels 0088377, inner light 0088361 and never and never 0088366”
3. Heavily fx’ed vocal excerpts from Eshar’s “7th Dimension 0002644”
4. Dcmack’s rhythm loops “2 bass drums 1- 0085449, 2- 0085446, and 4- 0085448.”
5. Steelyvibe’s choral wash “luno frunezo 0005719”
6. Nightingale’s guitar loop “diving deep 0043488”
7. Rasputin1963’s chorals “ soul ladies gospel riff 0088641 and reggae soul girls choir 0087693”
Genre: Cinematic
Tags: papico, Cinematic, Piano, feedback, choral washes, choir, harmonica, guitar, dgalantic- starting over, thatjeffcarter-feedback, dcmack- 2 bass drums 1,2 and 4, nightingale-angels, inner light, never and never, diving deep, eshar-7th dimension, steelyvibe- luno frunezo, rasputin1963-soul ladies gospel riff, reggae soul girls choir, Vietnam War newsreel

Description : So a new track for everyone. Im pretty impressed by this one, and would even place it higher than one of my best tracks, Angel And A Demon. However, I'm trying to decide whether or not I should put vocals to it. I have some in mjnd, but idk if itd be better to leave as is and keep it instrumental or not. Take a listen and let me know! Also, let me know if anything is too loud, still working on my mastering.
