Thought it had a traveling sad sense to it. Let me know what you think and constructive criticism is much wanted/appreciated! :)

Yo. Firstly - it is a great track indeed. I like the flow, the background melody reminds me of Hadouk Trio (if you don't know them - recommend listen for you!). The pace is nice, the tune is progressing well, it's arranged in a way that lets enjoy the trip. One thing - to me, the snares were bit too loud, kinda took lead of the whole track, and I think it should be melody that leads it, not the beat. Could be little bit longer too! It ended too fast!

Respect, well done.

And peace.

cool track, i liked how smoothly it moves along, really feels like im traveling to somewhere distant on a camel's back or something. would make for a great sound track, wish i could give out some constructive criticism but it sounds pretty damn good through my cheap laptop speakers, so i think you accomplished something very few people could do "make music sound good on my laptop". i enjoyed the contrasting feel of ethnic sounds and an uplifting drum beat. sounds a little like the drums are borderline hip hop but they go great with the rest of the track, anyways in short, Great Job

Nice one man, i dont know if i ever wrote you any imagery on your old tracks on my old account, but anyways here goes, typing while listening. i sense a clashing cascade of emotions that begin suttle but then infuse themself with dramatic feelings and tensions rise slightly again only to be soothed by the calming voice of what seems to be almost an angel singing a choir. But yet the one listening to this angels voice begins wonder who it's listening to, and singing such a heavenly rhythm. the person then realizes where their hearing this soothing rhythm coming from within, and the person opens their mouth and suddenly sings that soothing rhythm....

Thia is a great piece. I listebned to it while watching a battle scene from Gettysburg (tv sound off as usual, lol, must have been a silent movie fan in a previous life). Anyways, the track sounded like it belonged.

Great track, my friend, all the best

hey sorry to bug ya. i worte a few lines in case you wanted em. if you like em i could try to rap em for ya.. any where here ya go

The sun rising at my feet
Tonight, it will set to my back
I walk along this tiresome street
My life under this lonely attack

Alone, alone I walk
The darkness stalks
Around ever corner
Only to turn ya

Leaving nothing but these weeping blues
And the chaos ensues
But I step and step once more to pay my dues

Feeling the glaring eyes
Peering into this chest of mine
Each day I slowly die
All I want to see is the bottom of this bottle of wine

alone, alone I talk
But there eyes mock
There is no other owner
To my crying soul

Leaving nothing but these weeping blues
And the chaos ensues
But I step and step once more to pay my dues

uhhh thats what i got. any way thats kinda how this track made me kinda feel.. any who once again. awesome song dude ahaha 10 out of 10
DJFredrick
DJFredrick replied Unknown
these are superb mate! I'd love it if you could hit me up with those! Very well written. The only line I don't like is the "bottom of the bottle of wine" if you could change that..I'm just not crazy about that in there..kinda kills the mood in my opinion.
So yeah just hit me up when you got em ya?

Wow. I cant believe i haven't heard your stuff before. This is truly fantastic. I loved every second of it. I mean its so epic i dont know if i could describe it in words! I'll give you this: the sounds that you put together are very original. I mean you've got a little hip hop, a little oriental, a little orchestreal, and a little chill out, and of course the fx sounds here and there. Love it, fav'd for sure.

Peace Love Jesus!

This is beautiful. I love all the earth sounds. This song you would hear on a journey. There is a sense of sadness, but I get more of a feeling of overcoming something in life, and like your moving forward. I do get that Enya feel or Enigma feel.
DJFredrick
DJFredrick replied Unknown
Thanks Becca! :)
I agree about the overcoming sense, a feel of resolve to persevere past sadness and, yeah, move forward. thank you again (luv Enigma!:)...I'm glad you liked it! :)

Hey man cool journey with this piece....love those vocal insertions!....a real crossover track if ever there was one,very cool!and well executed..I recently went to a Turkish wedding where the band consisted of three guys,a keyboardist who doubled as the source for the rhythm track,a woodwind player (duduk and other mid eastern pipes),and a bazouki player or the Turkish equivalent...these guys were incredible..I had a long talk with them after the gig,they loved that a non Turkish guy appreciated their music so much,I was blown away by their musicianship,they literally ripped every song they played,traditional music but with a strong upbeat modern tempo not unlike in some areas what your doing here...cheers planet :)

Yeah thats got the Planets touch I hear that! nice work, not crazy about the snare sound though,would have given it a more solid snare, sort of Sade feel to it maybe! but the tune flows nice and gets really dynomac to the mid end! very kool!

peace

DJFredrick replied Unknown
thanks Brian. I've always been one for snares that carry out longer but...I could try that. Be a bit difficult cause I had to make em Audio files but maybe if someone else suggests it'd be worth the work.

Description : Inspired by traditional turkic and mongolic old music. The choice of instruments, such as oud and Daf, are an inspiration from the turkish culture and some rythm styles are inspired by mongolian music. I Hope you enjoy it and have use for it.

Description : This track is an experimental version of the popular Hindu mantra Om Namah Shivaye, wonderfully sung by Ankit Sharda. The female background vocalist doesn't want her name mentioned in the credits.

The song was created on Caustic Beta Version 3.8, and mastered on Mastering Beta Version 5; both Android apps from Single Cell Software. The new Sawsynth synthesizer in Caustic was used in the background & synth bass (paired with another bass).

Description : Not sure about the sideboards on the Ethnic genre. Trying out new sounds here. I'm using sitar and marimba with Indian and Indonesian drums. Does the listener need a solo or spoken word after the melody or does the open part work by itself?
I think it's a good piece. Almost.

Description : This is a Latin -Spanish flavored tune. In fact, I don't see a catagory for it so I put it under 'Ethnic'.

I eat now and then at a 'Mighty Taco' resturant near me and decided to call this one "El Nino". :-)

This tune is kinda off beat for me, but I am sure someone on here will like it. Made from loop a CD I have full of Nylon guitar loops only, I purchased early last year, and put together with other loops and synth for weird effects.
Ha.....maybe I am getting weird since my last tune was heavy metal!
Hope you like it.
