That sounds totally awesome. I can appreciate how active you are on here, and the stuff you are making is amazing!

Thank you doofus, very kind of you. I am active lately 'cause I got nothing better to do at the moment lol, I'm crawling up the walls!

BTW Your music is absolutely beautiful like I told you in another comment. And you got so much stuff it's going to take me while to listen to it!

Really great tune, and I honestly love your vocal on this, however short it is. I think you'd make a wonderful singer if that's anything to go by. Essentially, a lot of songs are just lots of little phrases :)

'Lot's of little phrases'... You are right, they are, aren't they? Always surprising how something so obvious escapes us and we need another perspective.

Thank you for your kind comment mildperil.

All them Sade CDs has had an influence then Ella, your slightly deeper but it was so similar sounding to me. hopefully the comments will have eased your intimation.
I was so scared my first time, but the guys comments inspired me, I'm hoping it has the same impact on you. Don't let your own opinion overule you, remember it's the listeners opinion that should matter most.
I hate to post my link here on your page, but it's to show you not to be intimated. I was so scared, I switched the master volume down on the vox, hence why it's a little quiet, but the comments built me, to what I am now, an active member within our community supporting all and leading with encouragement for talent. Excuse my ignorance for the link, I hope it helps

No Paul, I don't mind at all. Thank you so much for the link. I listened to your song and it was great! You truly have that 'trap' mood going on there with your vox.

Yes, I understand what you are saying. That still doesn't make it easy. I'm a very, let's say paranoid person. Goes with other issues I rather not talk about. But putting my voice out there is like marking my spot on the map for everyone to see. Irrational, but it is what it is.

I was advised to put myself out there and that's what I'm trying to do. But, baby steps... lol I'm already talking and revealing more of myself online than I'm used to.

Your words of encouragement are so comforting. I truly appreciate it Paul. Thanks.

Again another sweet tune. I understand what you feel about the mix but that is easily corrected. Are U using Isotope Ozone at all? The vox from you works very nicely. You have an alto voice and it fits well in this tune. Lower the master gain and if u use Ozone 9 you can bring the DB back up with the compressor and limiter functions while maintaining the instrument space with a boatload of DB space. less is more. You have a nice musical aesthetic in your compositions. I really like your work musically and you know what you're doing composition-wise, itÅ› really impressive.
AtticElla
AtticElla replied 24th Nov 2021 - 2 years ago
Yep, use ozone. 'Never Said' is mixed at about 9 LUFS with a 1 LU loudness range and -1db true peak which is just fine. I was actually referring to the mixing part I wasn't sure about but I worked it out in the end.

My voice is actually not that alto. I have no clue why here it sounds so deep, I since froze and flattened the track so I don't remember if I changed the pitch a bit to match my key. Some other people are telling me that the effects are causing that. Honestly, I don't see how.

Enough rambling omg. Thank you so much for your kind comment crucethus. Really appreciate you take the time to listen. =D

Very nice kick in the mix. I like the alternating chord progression, and then the keys layered over alternating at twice the speed (sort of, variations of the motif anyway).

Nice use of vox. It takes true guts to sing anything.

I can hide behind a sax or guitar all day, and feel truly apathetic, even undeservedly pretentious, but unless it's Karaoke Johnny Cash on the vox I shake like everyone else.

Excellent mix. Consider "fixing mixes" or "collaborative efforts" if you want break that comfort zone (that's what I had to do anyway).

Keep it going.
AtticElla
AtticElla replied 22nd Nov 2021 - 2 years ago
I have to stop myself from layering too much sometimes. I love the psycho-acoustic effects that pop up doing that some times.

Trust me, I shake, and I don't know if it's just my voice or it's nerves or a combo. I never sang outside the shower before.

That's an interesting idea that I've never explored. I don't know if I'd be a good collaborator though. I feel really possessive of my tunes, and I'm a bit unreliable. But will keep it in mind. I definitely need to put myself 'out there' for reasons I won't get into.

Thanks for stopping by bringer. Always nice to hear from you and your ideas.

Oh Rita, I am super scared of singing. I'm glad you think it's cool. We'll see what happens in the future, I don't know lol.

Thanks for listening madam!

The groove is fantastic, first of all. Your vocal sample is fine. Phones record well these days and to transfer the file onto a computer and into your daw is easy peasy. Keep messing around with it, you will figure it out. I like this kinda music when I oil or watercolor paint, just let it keep looping in the background for hours. Nice one!

AtticElla replied 22nd Nov 2021 - 2 years ago
I'm really happy you liked it Wayne. I might explore the possibility of singing in the future but right now I'm too intimidated and my voice is not very well trained. But the feedback I've gotten gives me hope.

You do oil and watercolor? My father was a painter, did both as well. The house always smelled of turpentine lol.

Thanks again for listening Wayne. =D

Hola amiga AtticElla, buena pista, veo que has intercalado tu voz. Opino como la mayoría y pienso que ha sido un verdadero acierto. Me gusta tu voz y creo que le podrías sacar más partido. Ahora que has empezado podrías experimentar con ella y sorprendernos con nuevos temas, que seguro que unido a tu enorme talento como productora serían un gran éxito. Que tengas una buena noche. paz y salud.
AtticElla

Se me hace dificil grabar la voz en mi hogar y no tengo equipo. Asi que fue solo un experimento. Per aprecio mucho tu comentario. Me llena de motivacion y alegria. Cuidate =)

Ella I'm so glad I got you thinking, this is beautiful, you have a great vocal, it really has a sade no ordinary love feel to this, your arrangement is fantastic I mention short lyrics well placed add character you don't need to go full vocal, something is better than nothing, creative originality, I would most certainly sit and listen to this playing in the background and a glass of wine with friends. I knew there was something about you, I've got a good ear and just knew there was more to come, you've done great in your short time, keep impressing lovely lady
AtticElla
AtticElla replied 22nd Nov 2021 - 2 years ago
Sade? I have a bunch of her CDs!

I don't know if I'll do this again though. I can't sing that well, comes out all wobbly. But it was fun to do.

You are so kind Paul. I swear I had no idea I could even mix any good before since I didn't have any feedback to tell me otherwise. I'm glad I stuck around. It's helping me a lot in more ways than just music.

Thank you for listening =D

Hey there - lofi jazz feel to this one to my ears the first half is very nice and your little vox / phrase is really great - And Im not sure what it is but I feel the track really picks up another notch from about 148 on and hits it's straps in the last half. It's always nice to see the folk on LM experimenting and creating all sorts of varieties of coolness. Damn fine track!
AtticElla

Yep, just an experiment. I'm glad you like it. Thanks pseudoble! =D

AtticElla, on a roll huh? I've said it before and now again, your compositions are on point. This is nice, very nice. It reminds me of Swing Out Sister! Also, I like the musical direction you're going and flowing!

AtticElla replied 21st Nov 2021 - 2 years ago
Yeah lol, sorry M.T.. I've been meaning to pace myself but I literally got nothing better to do at the moment. Listening so much good music here in LM gets me inspired as well. I'm going to take a break now and let things marinade here for a bit.

Swing Out Sister! So many memories. That is awesome you think so.

Thanks again for another lovely comment of encouragement.

Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.

Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Description : Far out mid-tempo fat beat deep chillout grooves with Eastern/Arabic and slightly menacing vibes, huge delayed synth bass and a great palette of psychedelic layered and intricate sounds (mostly synths) and a stirring, epic feel. Even has guitar solo section reminiscent of some 80s power rock which is then followed by a brief synth harp solo. I began making it straight after staying round the flat of the flute player from the legendary Ozric Tentacles - easily the greatest ever space rock band. I made this in about 2001 and still think it might be my best track (and it's nice and short, for a change). My production skills were much weaker in those days (no EQ, compression or mastering used here) but, somehow, this one turned out pretty much just right. Feel free to disagree. Now sit back and get ready to trip extremely far out. If you manage to return, let me know how that trip was...

Description : Got some spare time finally...just started on some random ideas basically (lets say kygo meets alan walker). A blend of dubstep,edm,downbeat,tropical etc.
It's still a work in progress, so i would appreciate your honest inputs. Thanks to all those whose loops I have used in here, sorry I don't have time to search them out.
Edit-added some more filthy sounds from my previous tracks and gave it some ending. Advice will be helpful.
