Guest Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Did this one - it's a bit long but felt right. Might do a shorter edit as well. https://soundcloud.com/absorb-fish/forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goiter Sanchez Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 You are definitely onto something great with this track. I love the general vibe of the first 3:00: the melodic progression and the quintuplet kick drum are very nice and I was wholly engaged. The middle section with the 4/4 kick was far less engaging for me and I started browsing other sites only to be drawn back in 5:40ish by that nice organ progression and the return of the quintuplet kick. I'm interested to hear a shorter edit. Also would be nice to hear funky little breaks every 4-8 bars just for added percussive spicing :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Thanks for listening + the comments - I do like the 4x4 center but I did a short(er) version without it. I agree with the drum prog - I added some programming near the end and minor edits throughout. Also dropped the intro too - I feel like buildup is better without it. It's like not short either but 2 mins shorter if that makes any sense. https://soundcloud.com/absorb-fish/forever-edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Mughnus Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Shorter edit plz! Cool track :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goiter Sanchez Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 This is feels much stronger to me with the edits you've made: 4:00 - the end is sublime. Great work, I would buy whatever release this ends up on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny O Flannagin Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Really enjoyed the pulsating synths near in the beginning. One problem I have is i can't groove too hard to the kick drum. Nice etherial synths near the middle. You def have an ear for synths. Have you ever done a drone/ambient song with no beats? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Thanks so much for listening guys. StephenG - I kinda cut this from > 8.5 mins of material so i don't know if i can shorten it anymore - This is the best i can do without taking out something i really want in there. Goiter, i don't have any immediate plans for the song - not planning album or ep so i flipped the dl on. Have at it! Danny - thanks - I've done a few but nothings online. I'm generally more beat oriented so my ambient stuff feels plain to me and i'm always tempted to throw a beat in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good work on this track, can't wait to hear more of your work =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
