Douglas Kirby 549 Posted February 12 I had to look up tone poem - I didn't know what it was. I enjoyed the listen - I think this is quite creative. It was lengthy but it kept my interest throughout - nicely done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SupaReels 87 Posted February 12 (edited) My word David, where do you start with something as complicated as this !? I also had to look Tone Poem up ...on the 2nd listen I got the story .. at least I think I did! Some bits making me sad or jump or laugh ... a journey indeed ! One of your real high end bits of work .. thankyou for the post and effort, Steve Edited February 13 by SupaReels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hidden Symmetry 926 Posted February 12 Great job David. I enjoyed your compositional approach of blending traditional & modern styles together. I'm still swatting at the gnats... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Starise 874 Posted February 12 I probably would not have known you squashed it. Sounds clear and legible to me. I imagine everyone else does the same. Just great film music all round' How long ago was this made? Did you use any outboard hardware? Just curious. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice that you think it's worthy of film. Thank you very much for listening and commenting, starise. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
David Sprouse 440 Posted February 13 Ya the gnats are pretty realistic, others have said the same thing. Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment on my piece. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you for listening and the thumbs up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Max Arwood 151 Posted February 14 Wow David! So many different parts. I loved the string parts and reverb at about the 1/2 way spot. Your stuff has gotten way better in the last year or so! Max Arwood Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noynekker 164 Posted February 15 Very Interesting piece David . . . like this one a lot !! (yes, two exclamations from me) . . . so many great moments. So enjoyed the orchestral string section, and the gnat swatting. Well, you just never know what's coming along next here . . . a poem and a painting indeed. Your canvas is wildly creative, full of imagination. So, created 6 years ago you say, I'm curious, did you tweak this version ? ie. Are you endlessly tweaking older projects ? BTW, I'm not hearing any audio squashing here, sounds Au Naturelle to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's fun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And yes, I would like to re record just about everything I've ever done. :D:D 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When you get the settings right they work really well. I think I would like the software version way better than the hardware version! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
