R_dup1 Posted November 14, 2001 Share Posted November 14, 2001 I've seen the thoughtful and helpful reviews that many of you have given to other posters here on the forum, and I would really appreciate it if you could give a listen to at least some part of these three songs and let me know what you think and how specifically they could be improved. Thanks to anyone who offers feedback, and I'd be happy to return the favor! Here they are: 1. I Know Some Things - Chill Out/Lounge Tune http://artists.mp3s.com/artist_song/1992/1992909.html 2. Anthymyst - Trying to be an anthym, but more of a retro thing instead I guess http://artists.mp3s.com/artist_song/1992/1992897.html 3. Chromatica - An attempt at Melodic Trance http://artists.mp3s.com/artist_song/2007/2007744.html Thanks!!! Roland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbyjoe Posted November 16, 2001 Share Posted November 16, 2001 g'day roland, sorry i haven't gotten back until today - i had a nightmare yesterday trying to get a demo onto cd that was due today! for a competition. i listened to your stuff - really really good hey. you've got quite a load of material and you cover a wide range of styles, in this particular style (btw, the correct title for this style is.....????). tell me, have you created most of it from loops and samples or have you built it from the ground up? either way it's good. there's another dude on the forum who i referred to this thread - he's just recently started doing this stuff and i think your material would be a great inspiration to him. he creates his stuff straight from his korg KARMA. seeing everyone is posting stuff, when i find a way to upload to my website i might put the song i did for my demo on it. i'm not into the electronic side of music personally, more into piano and organ and singing. once again, good work with the material mate. have you been doing it for a while? what equipment do you use?? take care. pray for peace, k "Consider how much coffee you're drinking - it's probably not enough."

R_dup1 Posted November 16, 2001 Author Share Posted November 16, 2001 Hey JimbyJoe, Thanks for listening and for the comments! The songs were created from a vareity of gear including the Karma, Emu XL-1, Virus Indigo, Roland DR-202 drum machine and samples and loops. I'd say the three I posted here are all Electronica, Chill Out/Lounge and Melodic Trance. I write in pretty much all styles, but I haven't put the waltzes and jazzier ones up yet. I would be happy to post one of your songs for you on Herd On Harmony which is an MP3.com site I run for members of Harmony Central if you'd like. E-mail me at Rollerator@hotmail.com if you're interested and I'll send you song info I need. There's no cost and then you'd have a song up! The site is at http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/330/herd_on_harmony.html Thanks again! Roland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
industriac Posted November 16, 2001 Share Posted November 16, 2001 I took a listen to all three songs you the link too. All three tracks are excellent, but I like the lounge/chill out tune the most. Thats the direction I sorta want to take my music to. But, as much as I like electronic music, Im more of a piano person when comes to writing music. Im gonna try to incorporate some Rhodes or Wurly sounds (when I find them) in my new songs or remixes. The melodic trance song was interesting, but too me it was a little too slow to be trance. It was more on the...I dunno actually. The chromatic progressions adds an odd twist to the song too. Not bad, its different, and thats what makes the song interesting. The third song, Anthymist...another tune I really enjoyed. The song remided me of Tangerine Dream a little. All in all excellent tracks. keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dansouth Posted November 16, 2001 Share Posted November 16, 2001 Yes, we've definitely lost track of the Let's Hear It thread. Too bad. I'll never remember where all of this music is if it's spread across a zillion separate threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R_dup1 Posted November 16, 2001 Author Share Posted November 16, 2001 Keith, thanks for the comments. I'm kind of new to the electronica stuff so I'm still guessing on genres. Thanks for the input. JimbyJoe, cool, let me know if I can help in any way. DanSouth, I'll search out that thread. Thanks! Roland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
