whoisp Posted March 31, 2022 Share Posted March 31, 2022 (edited) Updated 21/04/2022 - Hi guys, so i managed to finish it.... Here is the back story, my friend is a big time and hardcore Halo fan who gave me the idea in around about way. He was a disappointed with the TV Series soundtracks, so i created a soundtrack and did this edit to see what he thinks. Original idea Little idea i did tonight, messing with a broken beat and acoustic riff ... thought i call it atom. I think it should go into dance maybe haha Edited April 21, 2022 by whoisp UPDATE 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeeringAmps Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 So mix 2 is much more WHOISP. 8 minutes ago, whoisp said: should keep it mellow first half then go nutz If I was producing I think that's the direction I'd push for. your song, your production a ?'s here either way, but I'm a fan so... t 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Only listen to mix 1 Tad to long for an intro but there is a natural break about 1:32 where you could bring it up a gear and then bring it back to the last part of what is here., mix works quite well here on the Adam's 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These days I'm sort of with your thinking, that people want to ear things straight away but some people like big long intros and build ups etc. When i write i try to go with what i ear and the flow, but that's my natural vibe which differs from the next. I Just listen to a few different producers, some a straight off the bat, some seem to compromise. Interesting because when you write for playing live you can do longer intros and middle 8 etc but radio will give it 30 seconds if your lucky haha 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoisp Posted April 3, 2022 Author Share Posted April 3, 2022 Did a bit more tonight. its getting there... little restructure hopefully to suck you in the first 30 seconds. Probably couple mins longer, will go mellow and then balls out i think https://www.facebook.com/philipwrayjames/videos/5712477205433930 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoisp Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 Mix 4 Version 4, Iv'e now extended the version, nearly 4mins, really goes mental at the end, big surprise which will get you going. Just got more too do on productions and the industrial drums, sort some rolls out and clangs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesha Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Sounds great good job making it longer. A few places the backing vocals are slightly off the lead, no big deal but i am nitpicky about mine being together. I like the changes and the variety in your vocals. “ It started with a whimper and then there came a bang” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few places the backing vocals are slightly off the lead, no big deal but i am nitpicky about mine being together. I like the changes and the variety in your vocals. “ It started with a whimper and then there came a bang” i am so entrenched writing this one, I can't hear the vocal's off the lead. There is a few places iv'e done it on purpose but its probably not those places. I'm still on the idea development stage so not done a full pre_mix master yet but i think i will keep this structure and length ,few people want more. I might test a couple of bits to see if it works but i think its one of those that leaves you wanting more maybe. Maybe a bit piano extra at beginning before it cuts into the main song but im trying to compromise with 30 second rule haha If like to hear those industrial clang also and sold intense drum fills but the sidechain is difficult on this big sound in places . iv'e sent extra time on this so thank you for input T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Joad Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 (edited) Cool little tune, I liked the 1st mix more but both of "em" work? Edited April 5, 2022 by Old Joad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy j Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Very impressive indeed! It sounds almost cinematic in its approach --- especially the end. Yup -- very impressive indeed!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whoisp Posted April 5, 2022 Author Share Posted April 5, 2022 I am keeping this structure, length seems spot on. Maybe drop the piano at the start, i think first 30 seconds suck you in. Productions is close, drums in a few areas need polish. My mastering template is tight, one more tweak, only 2 more mixes and should be about there. Not sure on end. My best song this year...

Thanx, i like the end verse too , it is also in the full song now after second verse/chorus, its a nice hook.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
