standing near by the equipment doesn't count as working out.

leave him away Matias! ..he was always acting like a retard.

i found it pretty nice, its listenable bcoz you are maintaining the same tone (tiny one for exp.) from the begin till the end... keep doing like this mate and don't look back to the "whiners" songs will improve you mate, keep practising!

I see you asking for feedback every now and then... IMO you should do what you feel, what's deep in your heart... Learn from your influence/idol and try to achive what's in your imagination. That's how the best tracks are made (maybe it's a matter of genre?).

Rafek my favorite Pole (:

Matias 24 Apr 2012, 00:44
I always do that, I don't really have any idols... but influences ye. Still want to have my own style :>

I ask for feedback because when you have been making a track for 2 days in a row you become deaf to it, it sounds like its perfect when its nothing near it.

rafek 24 Apr 2012, 16:44
Just because of the low amount of your experience (I suppose) I think that 2 days of making a track is definitely too much. I mean everything starts to mingle and just as you said you become deaf and don't know where to put your hands in. Either take less amount of time for producing a track or have a break of 1 day and come back with a fresh mind and a new idea how to finnish it. By the way, meditation is good for creativity and so is weed.

Matias 24 Apr 2012, 18:14
ye should do like 2-4 hours per day, and have a day off.. and make different tracks at a time.

I use weed pretty much :D

kaze 24 Apr 2012, 20:11
no shit you use weed pretty much stonerfriend

rafek 24 Apr 2012, 20:15
:D

I also wanted to recommend you to listen to some other genres and take a look at the made tracks technically to improve your creativity and style. And yet again, emotions > technique! I guess I spoke too much anyway so I'm out of here wishing you a good luck in making music and what's the most important... fun!

What rafek said. Personally I don't really like the sound of the drum kit (weak hi-hat, too much echo/reverb on the snare, awkward and slightly too loud bass). I don't know if you have any friends who play drums, but it would be kind of cool if it sounded more like an actual drummer (both technique and play style) even though it's electronic. Or, even better, actually record live drums for your track.

listened once, thought it was rubbish

now listened it for the third time, kinda catchy:D lovin the piano part
▼
Matias 24 Apr 2012, 00:52
:D

its maybe because the melody isnt as simple as in most of the mainstream tracks.

Matias I have connection in the DJ's scene :-). The first begin it's like a tetris game with background music. You have to make your own tunes :-)
▼
Matias 24 Apr 2012, 00:39
I have no idea what u just said :o

NzZ 24 Apr 2012, 14:42
Mean your begin of your number in your journal. The begin of your song is a little bit poor.
Parent
▼
Matias 24 Apr 2012, 18:12
ye I dont like the beginning either. dont get the "you have to make your own tunes" -part ? :o
Parent
▼
NzZ 24 Apr 2012, 18:38
Sorry for my bad english, but do you make your own sounds? Or do you just copy it from a program? What kind of program do you use.
Parent
▼
Matias 24 Apr 2012, 20:05
yeh I make my own sounds, I use mostly massive to make them.

for drums I use samples but I edit them to sound a lot different and better.

for this song I just used sytrys' grand piano, but edited it a lot too so it doesnt sound same at all.

biggz 24 Apr 2012, 03:05
2.18 to 3.10, clip either side of that, work with it and you will have something really nice I think.
▼
NoCS 24 Apr 2012, 03:40
Gj mate...i already told you what sounds bad to me :)
▼
SsAP 24 Apr 2012, 07:27
hmm sry, really liked that "voca me" a lot more. found this one to be quite monotone :/
maybe because of the drums having the same ryth over and over again over some time and the piano having two consecutive but short parts? (just my first impression. didn't find it exactly chilling, just...well... boring, but maybe thats just me. wonder how you'd insert vocals into that one tbh. or would you make a different song in that case?)
▼
Matias 24 Apr 2012, 20:09
want this to be pretty monotone, but will change drums etc. a bit.

I dunno about the vocals, maybe just gonna sample some voices in some parts. will see :>
