Here's Alan to give us a masterclass on how to set an atmosphere in a song. Your mix sounds like it could be part of a movie soundtrack. Very cinematic!

Great track Alan, Really love that vocal, and the track fits it beautifully. Did you build the track around an accapella ? sounds really nice, great mix and a really lovely EQ balance. Great job !

Thank you! Yes I have written the music around the acapella vocal I found here, a very nice one from Ashes And Dreams, wanted to create some ambient/progressive vibe - with the rock touch at the end :)

nice work Alan, lovely keys at the intro but they do get a little lost in the busier parts, maybe you could route the piano to another mixing slot also and just add some stereo enhancement to bring it out more, thats what a tend to do when im struggling for a section to cut through. vocal is a great fit and the guitar sims are great too nice track

Thank you mate, I appreciate the feedback and the advise, piano has definitely been the trickiest to mix, will keep that in mind for future improvements :)

Hi Alan, I am not good in analyzing details but the whole song is a flow of Art. Silver Bella do come out quite different behind all the spheres and the message flows directly into my soul. May give her voice 2-3 dB more gain after 58sec or less for the guitar :-) Cheers, Oli

You've done a good job of creating a kind of tension through the structure and the minimalist introduction. That's what I love about this song. It builds up, so to speak! Creating a structure like that, where you don't know where it will lead, is a great, high-quality artistic achievement. And you don't need to apologize for your love of Pink Floyd. We are always influenced in our work and that's a good thing, as long as our own style is reflected in the result.

Best wishes, Manuela

Thanks again for the nice feedback, glad to hear that the song generates this sort of "suspense" and there are listeners like yourself who get the meaning of the structure, as 6min+ songs are not for everyone, and that's fine.
The important is to always compose what we feel is good and remain authentic, and this is always influenced by what we listen or used to listen, just rearranged with our personal touch. Till next time :) Alan

Hello my friend, very spherical and psychedelic. You can clearly hear your penchant for Pink Floyd. The riff guitar at the end sounds great! It's a long but entertaining song that reminds me a lot of the musical experiments of independent music in the 80s, which I unfortunately only know from recordings and from my studies because I'm too young. Great work! In my opinion, there is nothing to complain about with the mix and master.
Best wishes, Manuela

Hi Manuela, thank you for listening to this long track and once again for the detailed feedback, glad you enjoyed it. When trying to compose some progressive/psychedelic bits a touch of Pink Floyd seems inevitable even when I don't look for it :) The minimalistic drums and sounds in the first sections were deliberate, to help create some crescendo/anticipation later on.

Another moody and immersive track. There's a sense of anticipation all the way that's only resolved at the end when you drop the distorted guitar. Kinda almost a bit p J Harvey. Nice guitar tones, you use a sim or real amp?

Thank you for stopping by again! I am glad to read you caught the sense of the progression with gradual buildup to the distorted guitars.
Guitars are sims, for the clean/reverbered guitar I used Solaris GTR, for the distorted one Ample Guitar LP from Ample Sound

The Guitar is far out, probably my favorite part of your track. The piano seems rather quiet to me. I almost can't hear it at all at some points (I'm using headphones). I think it'll sound better if you bring it out just a tad more.

and that Guitar at the end was pretty dope.

Thanks a lot for the feedback, yes it's being a bit of a headache to mix the piano in the busier parts!

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.

Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
