Wookiee

Not sure if it is the intent but the whole thing sounds constrained to me as if something is holding it back from flying.

Listening on Event 20/20's driven by a TEAC A-X 5030.

Sounds OK, well constructed track.

Different sound s a little mechanical, the melody was fine just felt mechanical. 

Always an emotive subject and one can always find data the refute one argument against another.  All I know is that the seasons seem to have been eroded since I was just a Wookleet

However I need to remind people the point is to review the music not the political content. 

So keep the comments about the music or we will find not only political songs being banned but also songs with religious content, gender, etc.

Thanks

PS @freddy j Cool grooving sir cool grooving.

@bjornpdx thanks glad you enjoyed this. 

Sounds OK here and I can nothing specific in the video that should cause offence.  Perhaps it has something to do with the title and the opening scene.  It could be misconstrued he is on he knees praying????

Nice stringy synth there Wookiee and a cool flow to the root 'D' track... 

Thank you sir.

I seem t be hearing I don't Know?

Like wise I don't know either.

Mix sounds little boxy here on my Event 20/20's sounds like the top has been cropped off perhaps a few more tweaks would help.  You definitely have a Captain Beefheart quality to your vocal.

@mark skinner Sounds good here, on the Melodyne move from cello to violin did you play with the formants as I wonder if that what might be need to get that extra shift in tonality.

This has a nice groove to it.  (lead guitar players are over rated 😎😂) Your playing sound fine.

Tom I am the onboard barista on the Falcon, I have to say she made a real meal of texturing that milk.  As for her wand hygiene well.

We have a proper Barista style coffee machine on board, Solo was a nightmare with out his coffee in the morning. Well I am not much better

@Dave Oliffethanks  nice to know it growled for you.

@Dave Oliffe As a suggestion try automating the reverb sends by reducing on the voice you want to be most forward. 

Nicely done Ms. W approves. I like the finger picking arpeggios. 

The staccato lead voice could come up a bit, the panning could do your head on cans.  Shame it is  so short, you have lots of scope to develop this with more voices and some expansions on the theme.

Now did you mix the song to the video or mix the video to the song? Definitely an eclectic track as noted some fine bass playing in there.

Tad too Hot did you let a computer finalise this?

The mix is quite dense I am struggling to get separation of the voices of the instruments.

Pleasant enough, perhaps a little more excitement from the drummer  , interesting guitar tone, what did you use?

Would you describe this as Allegro or Presto, whatever it is cool.  

This was close to Friday nights Proms for enjoyment.  The Aroura orchestra played Stravinsky's Firebird suite from Memory, not a sheet of music in sight, with only those who really needed to sit, i.e. cello were sitting all the rest a stood.  It is on BBC iPlayer for those who want a real experience in Dolby Digital too.

This has all the excitement, musical dynamics and texture a round of applause @jsg

Wow, have I been blacklisted or something?

 

What makes you think that?

It seems a very dense mix in places, that is soaked in reverb which does not help clarity. I would suggest a remix with less reverb as I am sure there is a reasonable song in there trying to find its way through the reverb fog.

Look forward to hearing the remix.

vangelis with throat singers?  Actually, wookie you defy categories.  I loved the  heroic and extemporized feel to it.  Your piece would make a good soundtrack to a film about  D-Day.

Interesting idea! Thank you David you are most kind it's appreciated.

Powerful synth sounds there wookiee - good work!

Thank you sir, that Cherry Audio Eight Voice and the Arturia MINI's can growl.

Hi Wookie,

The synth maestro strikes again - great tune to audition voices to, love the development and Vangelis-like flourishes to this piece.

Thanks for sharing.

Good Job!

You are far to kind to this furry alien, but I do appreciate your kind words.

Michael I have had a little play with this in Soundforge 15 using Cakewalks LP EQ to me it benefits from a little lift in the 2k to 3K. As SPAN reveal quite a dip in that region.

I did enjoy the composition and overall vibe of the track.

In answer to this part of your question.

Why are the things we like often illegal?

Normally because the local government have not worked out how to make a profit.

Could not understand a word but the mix sounds reasonable her ,first track.
