Some of my tunage!

[Sarah C]

Ive just got an account on Soundclick.com and there's only one tune up there at the mo but please have a listen if you like..

ive already had a bit of feedback but want some more!

constructive criticism plllease

 

My tune

 

and ive also had a bit of an update on my website

 

[Mr_Happy]

the hoovers dont work. especially towards the end of the tune when you get a little over enthusiastic with the filters

 

i think the (for want a better word) groove of the tune works nicely tho. maybe a little more originality for the medlody (ie no tdv sampling )

[Bungle]

I'm not into producing, so this is purely from a clubbers point of view.

 

Firstly I like it! Could quite happily have a bit of a stomp to it

 

But, time for the constructive criticism. It all seems a bit shallow if that makes sence? I mean that the cymbal crashes you used don't seem to go too well with the rest of it. They seem like they've been plonked rather than working as part of the track and as Happy said the hoovers do go a bit over the top. I've always thought they were used best during a build up then after it til the end of the track. Think yours came in a bit soon.

 

hope some of that helps.

 

I do like it though, honestly. I'm on my third listen

Oh and just after 3 mins it goes really crackly. Don't think its my speakers.

[Sarah C]

thankyou for your advice both of u i really needed some other opinions.

I think i did go OTT with the hoovers cos ive just figured how to make them in sound forge so i just went a bit mad!

 

Thanks again its helped - Ive got another one im working on now which is going to be a few hoovers - but more hard trance style with a nice riff (hopefully!)

[Mr_Happy]

no hoovers please. i can count the number of tunes with *good* hovers on 1 hand

[russelldust]

it's ok but just doesn't quite grab me...

 

I've heard a lot worse though...

 

A bit long and the sound could maybe be cleaned up. I'd also put another layer of sound in on the eighth bar...

i dont get ya.....

[Sarah C]

u can make hoovers in sound forge - aha, my little secret - you'll probly find out yourself anyway cos its piss easy.

from scratch using a certain menu on sound forge....

 

oh and ok, no more hoovers in the next one..!

[Mr_Happy]

if think its safe to assume that ian wont be making hoovers in sound forge

 

naughty: thoose hoovers in your tune sounded like they were just ripped out of a TDV tune - i could have swarn i even heard other parts from that tune in amongest the hoover

[Bungle]

I couldn't hear any blatant TDV ripping. I wondered what you were going on about.

[Mr_Happy]

might just have been me then.

[Sarah C]

really? hmmm well i promise i didnt rip anything outta his tunes i wouldnt do that....

 

but seriously i made them in sound forge - under the tools - synthesis menu - FM

 

fiddle around with that u'll soon see what i mean....

 

Got two other tunes up now as well by the way...

[Mr_Happy]

have had a fiddle with it in the past.

[Sarah C]

new tune to go up soon - working on it at the mo and hopefully finish it today
