BaggerMcGuirk Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 The aquatic sounds at the beginning are really nice. Yea I'd also like to see what this sounds like as more than a sketch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koolkeyZ865 Posted March 31, 2021 Author Share Posted March 31, 2021 filled the track out quite a bit; also added a secondary section at the end. mixing needs some work and it needs polish, but overall I'm very happy with it so far! fullersketch.mp3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think with a couple of careful decisions you could bring it home. I'd like to hear more of the main melody that starts at 0:47... Actually I can hear it played with a different sound after 2:00, so possibly you just need to turn that up in the mix. Also, maybe that second section at 1:55 could build up slower. I.e. it would be cool after all the madness of the first section if it stayed chill for a bit. I think you could mull around for an extra half minute before bringing in the lasers, at least. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listened to the first one too and I think you're definitely taking this in the right direction. The groove is really cool and mellow and this is one of those tunes I really just wish for it to keep going without too much change. The melody at around 1:50 fits nicely as well. It'll sit well with the other track you're working on. In terms of mixing it could probably do with some EQ, I feel like the bass is getting in the way of the other instruments. At least take a look at that humming bass sound. The boom is great though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I appreciate the feedback! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaggerMcGuirk Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 This has a really thick groove, and it offsets the glassy pad really well. I think I'm listening to the newer version, as the bass seems pretty under control. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtificialDisco Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Very nice, looking forward to hear how this plays out. You've got a nice beat at 0:52 and already a nice melody to accompany it. There's a world of possibilities where to take this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaggerMcGuirk Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I really liked this. The DSP on the vocals was just subtle enough to not take attention away from the ambient stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm running on a pretty low powered machine since I've been living nomadically over the past year, so it's a barebones setup. I use FL Studio, all stock plugins besides some Arturia plugins and Valhalla Supermassive. CPU usage goes to unusable levels when I stack too many third party plugins on. Wouldn't mind some recommendations on some free/cheap low CPU intensive plugins, especially FX 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
