Heres a little song i made.. :) please enjoy and feel free to use/remix it as you wish. I would love to hear some of the feedback :)

 

Ever get those moments where things are getting on top of you ? getting stressed ? this was my way of escaping :P

 

At 0:14 the voice comes in too hot...it is actually a bit startling when contrasted with the lovely chord progression in the beginning.  At about 0:37 it sounds like the voice takes a slight dip in volume which might have been better from the beginning.  At 1:44 the voice comes back in in a seamless transition...perfect.  The song gets cut off at the end...it felt like you were about to slow the piano part down, let the back orchestral part fade out to nothing and then have the piano end the piece with a lovely major resolve single note...probably the tonic.

 

Overall, this is BRILLIANT!!  So well crafted.  I am so envious of you gifted types.  What did you create the orchestrated parts on?

thats a cool bit of music you did their

 

we seem to have a lot of talented guys in tanki online

 

is music something you would like to make a career of ?

Its not something ive considered tbh. I started a few years back when i was heavy in addiction and it was a way to express my emotions, which was something i found really hard to do.

That is even better feed back mate i really appreciate it  ;)  i think at the ending.. i simply forgot to add a few extra seconds on the loop (call it musician error :D)

 

the orchestra bit was a layer of (Nexus/Dune/Blue 2)  about 7 of them total to give the right sound and thickness (i find it easier then just making one sound from one synth) The vocals i still struggle with in terms of the mastering. hence why the vast majority of my songs are instrumentals :P... as with everything its a learning curve ..

 

Thanks for the feed back tho guys :)

I figured it was just an uploading YouTube glitch.  If it was an over site, can you go back in and fix it without too much grief?

 

Do you use a midi controller of some sort, or just fart around with the Nexus screen keyboard?   Did you record the vocals yourself or did you use a clip/sample of someone's spoken word? I thought it was a clip from a movie or audio book.  Is the vocal section on one dedicated track or was it's layer combined with the other tracks?

 

Anyway....please please post some more that you have done.

the vocals were taken from a lecture from "Alan Watts - Out Of My Mind" i find his voice really compliments most of the music i do. i couldn't be messing around with on screen keyboards  :( takes far to long to work out chords and draw them in :;(

 

Most of my music is actually on the YouTube channel that song is posted on ;)

I went to your YT channel.  They are all quite good.   You should try a "Tanki" inspired piece...nah, nah...it would be too sad and depressing since matchmaking started :)

10cc were a brilliant band in the 70s

one of my all time favourites from them

 

 

 

I liked 10cc because they wrote lots of songs about themselves or at the least introspective songs.  So many great lyrics, melodies, arrangements, grooves...even humor! (usually the kiss of death for a pop band)  Their music is all different styles and all very intelligent.  One of the most under-rated and overlooked famous bands of the 70's and early 80's.  Clever, clever, clever creative boys...experimental wizards. 

 

From Rochdale To Ocho Rios is light hearted peppy calypso about life on the road as a touring musician.  Be sure to listen to the style changes between 1:40 and 2:27 ...seamless transitions.  ...and my favorite piece from 10cc.

 

 

Dreadlock Holiday was about their last top 40 "hit" and it is my favorite 10cc song.

 

 

Not exactly 10cc, but the two mad musical scientists that drove 10cc, Godley & Creme..and my favorite 10cc-ish song.

 

 

At the time this was recorded it was a very a unique train of thought or perspective because there really weren't any "old men" in rock and roll...even the guys from the 50's were still young in the 70's.  Now, in the 10's there is an army of old farts still banging away...just like the song suggests.  The song handles the concept with melancholy where the reality is way more harsh...sometimes even a bit embarrassing.  Anyway, this is my favorite 10cc song.

 

 

 

The Worst Band In The World is musical slapstick...so funny, but yet still very tasty.  It is my favorite 10cc song.
