Description : A snippet from the Acapella "That Is You" by Felicia Santilla https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/5674, drums from Chrisbeats and a nice pad from Mingote - thanks guys! The rest created in FL.****20/8 REDONE - tried to EQ some stuff and widden the pad by panning it. Don't know if it's better now? Also added a bass line and some drum fills from 1:40 for more impact. So did it work??!

Hi there Maff - great to see you here!
Keep it going for 6 more minutes? Haha I'll see what I can do about that. I'm slowly - very slowly - working on a prolonged version of this but I'm not in the music making mood really right now so it's going to take a while.
But thanks for the feedback!
I checked that acapella SJ...and you definitely picked the right part of it to feature in this mix...this is really nicely done...the minimalist accompaniment works great and you have done a lot of thinking in the way you developed the composition....You keep getting better every time I stop by for a listen....bravo....keep on doing it.....Ed
Hi Ed!
Yes this is very minimalistic, not at all my style really - I tend to throw in a lot of melodies in everything where as here it's really simple, almost just the vocal snippet that does the whole job.
hi Seriously Joking:)
I really like what you did with the song:) The last part is the best - piano and bass you added fill up all the space in the song. The pad you have used sounds just great for me! I am feeling a very nice vibes at 1:52. Great work with the piano and bassline. Especially I like it at 2:14:). Those two elements appear at the end of the song without any continuation - it makes me somehow wanting to hear them again developed or just repetead. But maybe it's just me:) I suggest that you could only experiment again and try to re-arrange the elements of the song:) But I like the way it is now and that's fine if you will leave it at this point which sounds very nice:)
The sound you created is very chill and I am enjoying this a lot feeling like diving into it. Really nice work and simply cool chillout track!
A.
Cool!!
Thanks for the feedback. I'm thinking about making the track a Little longer but it'll have to wait, I'm at work all day tomorrow.
But I Think you are on to something there with the bass and piano.
LOL you don't know how much your comment response made me smile. (I read this while I was at work too) I still won't type any faces though, I just don't do all that. (Often at least)
I've actually thought about being a writer of some sort before. I used to write alot of poetry and lyrics over the years. But I don't do that as much as opposed to what I type on the net or where ever else. (Music pages, youtube etc) Not facebook anymore, I'm tired of facebook. You find out who your friends are and whose merely there for some attention or because they want something. Don't get me wrong, everyone loves a lil attention and company and what not.
But when I want my "space" for example, (key word) everyone can just f off to put it bluntly. People are CONSTANTLY updating the newsfeed with mundane unimportant events. Anyways, sorry there's more to it than that but your not my shrink or anything lol
And yea I was high, why not? Non smoker huh? That's cool, it's definitely not for everyone though. Just do what comes naturally to you
Anyhow - you should write more.
I'm kind of the same when it comes to Facebook, it's fun for a while and then I just couldn't care less.
So now I need my space - careface!
Nice Filtered Intro. Synths Remind me a bit of Moments in Love from The Art of Noise...back in the day. I almost feel the vocal line comes in a micro second too soon in some phrases. The reformulated bass piano sound at 1:45 is nice and counterpoints nicely with the melody. Over all a pleasant listening experience.
Nice work.
Steve
Steve - hello!
About the vocal coming in a bit late - yes I Think I can hear that too. I wanted it to come in a tiny bit late for the most time and synced the other times to give it that laid back vibe but now when you mention it, maybe you are right - it should come in late every time to not loose the rhythm. Even for a microsecond.
Thanks for listening!
Dream like vibes, those drums are set at a smooth pace. Calms me down. Nice snippet so far SJ, I don't use FL much. How is it for you? Some of the layout is a lil bit of a mess for me but I guess it depends on the individual workflow of a producer/artist. I've used it but it's just not my forte, my current preferred is using Reason with Logic in unison. !!!-Okay I didn't notice that until just now..reason...and logic. I'm sorry that just surprised me because I really didn't notice that until now. Makes sense now, ha. Nice work once again SJ, peace
Hi Gramo - first of all: I DO like your Gramo Style trap, I've figured it out now. =D
Secondly: I only use FL, mainly because that's what I have at the moment but I'm dreaming about learning and using the other DAW's. Reason is a bit hard for a newbeginner to figure out (or was it Logic? Or both??) but YES whenever I get the chance (a new computer for starters) I'll get in to those and what not. There is a huge difference in the sound quality, I know that.
Thirdly: Are you high or something??! =D Reason...logic...
It's fun to read your reviews, I go around reading them on other peoples tracks too just because it's like a diary from your life. It's interesting! And amusing a lot of times. You should consider becoming a writer, if you already aren't one. I'm not joking!
Nice track...Lots of room to move in many directions, little short aaaah
just a clipper...
Can't wait to hear the whole ship, so far smooth waters in style and flavour
solid piece of work...
I just thought you might add some simple lead piano/synth solo at the end. Your piano sounds good.
Or introduce piano earlier and put some solo as a bridge to the final part. Hope that is useful.

Very useful!
I'll consider what to do with this then. Wasn't sure about if there was any point in putting more time in this because it's a very...ehrm.. dull song to my ears.
hey:) I think you could also add some variations to the drums.
Maybe experiment also a bit with equalizing and balancing the parts of your composition in the mix and find some better sound:)
A.
Hi again!
Drums are doable - that was my idea too from the beginning but it didn't work out. But I'll try again.
About EQ'n and stuff - hello I'm an amatour! =D
this is very nice done - vocal has some oriental quality and flavour I think. At least this is how it sounds to me:)First part sounds just great - I feel chill and very relaxing vibes. Too bad it sounds unfinished - I'd like to hear even more power from 1:41. The pad you used also could sound wider (for me). But still really great work with this one!

Description : Sounds of the sea and trippy acidy washes with a cool beat and some live acoustic guitar. Written in Cubase with live guitar and keys etc. The sound of the sea and birds was recorded on the beach where I used to live. After moving to the city one sunny day I was telling stories to a friend about living by the sea and started making this track.
Description : This improv recorded a few years ago powered my interest even further than I expected.....recorded using tc electronics pedal and tascam studio recorder and a Fender Squier tele electric....
Description : I used some new "Anthem" pickups from L.R. Baggs on my Martin acoustic to see how it performed, and it definitely beat my expectations. Captured the sound perfectly as I needed.
Anyhoo, this song is almost a prayer, hence the repetitiveness of the verses. As Christians, we believe that God will one day return and take away every suffering and all evil for good; in that regard, this song is almost one of waiting too. Very simple, with vocal harmonies and whatnot. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did making it. Made in 13 hours.
Someone else wrote the words, I was just inspired to use them. I only added the "Yeah" and "Amen."
Description : This is a track off of one of my EP's I dropped last year. It is based on True events. Sometimes when people finally take a second in life to slow down and breathe in..... The oxygen is deflated and it's too late. Take your time people, because time is what differs a good decision over a bad one. Life is precious!

Description : So a guy buys a nice guitar at a pawn shop but returns it a few days later after waking from a sound sleep to hear it playing by itself. When he tells of his experience he is shocked to learn the owner had actually died while playing it. Is it fantasy or truth? Is the guitar in this track that very same guitar? Its all part of the mystery and fun of Halloween !
EDIT: modified ending to a deeper voice
Description : This track describes a magical state that I experienced a long time ago. Maybe you also know the feeling that you can't describe something like this with words ... luckily we have the music for it!
Description : So this is my first Chill Outish track. I was just trying something new and then suddenly this was a thing. Everything you hear is home made. I hope you enjoy. - Mr. Spook'd
Description : That's something i worked out lately
a swing 3/4 hip hop Chill ?? Don't know how to describe this kind of music.
Anyway VOICE NEEDED
So if your interested to try something contact me
Description : A progressive journey incorporating deep ambient chillout, swing jazz, hip hop, d'n'b, trance and a slight touch of acid with a thousand ninjas battling in space. Features a great deal of my lead slide resonator guitar playing. Also a whole load of synths, programmed acoustic drum kits and manipulated drum loops, big basslines, regular electric guitar, vocoded guitar parts and bass guitar (distorted right at the end). If you like deep chill, far out soaring beauty, fat beats and 170 BPM uplifting slide trance controlled mayhem, you might just get into this. In my heaven there is an endless supply of honey mangoes (an exquisite beauty of the fruit world) and even more slide guitar. A 1,000-year-long version of this track plays there on a loop (long enough not to get bored of it) but here I offer you the Earthly 11 min version. You must be very good to be accepted into my heaven to hear the full thousand year version so best start now. It may be heaven's main theme tune but it's not above criticism so feel free to let me know what you think of it. Maybe you prefer the soundtrack in hell. I hear it's pretty badass...

Great bass too in the right places. Keep altering the beat and make it go for 6 mins plus !!
Cheers Maff.

Agree about widening the pad and more Power after the break - maybe a bass line and develope the piano some more...
