Guest Ultravisitor Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Need to rerecord the guitar through a better microphone and a pal of mine is going to do the drumming for me (which i can then cut up and have some fun with if necessary) In the meantime.... does anyone fancy giving some feedback? http://soundcloud.com/arboreal-1/fields-demo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squee Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I really like the guitar. I love the plucking sound it makes to begin with - almost music box-like. Overall it just sounds great. If I could change one thing it would be to hold back the drums until 0:51. I would like to hear more guitar and the drums don't really seem to be doing well on their own without the bassline for some weird reason. I'm not saying that the drums are bad but it's just one of those weird instances where the bass ties the whole thing together. I hope this makes sense. Also, there's no reason to record any of the guitar on a better microphone. It sounds awesome now. PS. It kinda reminds me of some of the old DJ Cam stuff...

Guest Ultravisitor Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Thats really nice to know. Thank you! I know what you mean about the drums. I just sent my pal a copy of the track without drums so he can work out some drums to it. Should be better with a real drummer. I'm glad you like the guitar. I'm still going to rerecord it though :) I've already made an album with my in built mic. Feel like i should try out my friends mic instead. BUT, if it loses the feel, i'll stick to the original. gotta try new things, ay? :) also, who is this dj cam? i've heard the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squee Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 DJ Cam used to be big in the late 90s early 00s. It was chilled and jazzy trip hop/hip hop. But for some reason your track reminded me of some of his stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squee Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Should be better with a real drummer. Just make sure it has the same dusty sound as the ones you've already used :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ansgaria Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Pretty good. I really like the ambience you (assumingly) made from guitar samples near the end. So summer'esque Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Saraband Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Pretty Four Tetish. With that being said..."I love it". Definitely will check into your later posts. Great tones and the material sounds well mastered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ultravisitor Posted May 28, 2011 Share Posted May 28, 2011 :) I'm stepping up the mastering game soon. Found out that "Ochre" does mastering too! £15 a track. So I'm going to send him my concept ambience album about water cycles and see how that changes the flow of things. SO exciting! Thanks again for the comments! Its nice to know that other people enjoy the music I make. (albeit not particularly challenging music :D) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
