    uhhhhuhuhuhuh..... Thatth pretty cool! Uhhhuhuh.. Youve got WOOD... [/butthead]

     

    Damn fine work there! What kind of wood are you using?

    Thanks, alleycat. The Klingon weapons (heheh) are made of pine and the mandala is oak.

    Orchestral Tracks

    in Music Making and Production/Industry

    Posted

    That's cool, Colin. :) It's a very narrative piece with a lot going on. It certainly deserves genuine orchestral instruments. Wouldn't you love to be able to hear a real orchestra play your work? Man, that's one of my biggest dreams. Having only GM instruments was the main reason why I placed orchestral composition on the backburner for so long. It's frustrating to have these grand epic ideas that have limited translation.

     

    What game was this for, some kind of fantasy adventure or RPG?

     

    Thanks for sharing, Colin :)

    Ah! You finished it :clapping:

     

    This has a different sound to your other tracks, and I love it just as much as your last few. It starts off so dark and playful with such great chord structure. You put in a lot of great sounds from the wah-ki-cha guitar at 2:10 to the quirkiness of the bouncing synth. If Danny Elfman were to create electronic tracks I think they'd sound somewhat like this. When the vibe lightens at 3:06 I swear this sounds like something I'd write. It's so bittersweet here and gives me an awesomely warm feeling. Concerning the mix quality, I have zero qualms. I believe you have a signature sound that I can identify quite easily :)

     

    Damn, I'm really loving your music, Per. Most excellent work :) :) :posford:

     

    Out of curiosity, why did you name it Chandelier?

     

    edit: on the 5th listen :clapping:

    This is great stuff man. I'd love to have something like that on my wall. Give me a message if you feel like shipping an item or two to Norway for a bit of casholinas.

    Thanks, phobium :) Yeah, man, that sounds great. If you're interested in a specific one, let me know and we can discuss logistics.

     

    :lol: and I bet they would buy it as such as well!!!!!

     

    Amazing stuff billy bob! I really love everything you do! If I will ever call anyone a true artist on this forum, it will be you :)

    Damn, thanks Nemo! What a nice thing to say :)

    My hatred towards you grows stronger with each artistic ability you present us. :angry:

     

    Beautiful stuff, Billy. Thanks for sharing the images with us.

     

    The bottom item looks sort of Klingon weapon like.

    :lol: Thanks, faze. Now if I can only make some $$ with these.

     

    Heh, you're right about the Kilngon weapon resemblance. Interesting. *jumps in car and heads to nearest Star Trek Convention*

    Since I got the new scroll saw for Xmas, I've started working with wood cuts. It's a very precise and focused process, but very enjoyable. Here's my first with the new tool -

    Its not only amazing music, but its also creative, smart and unique. I simply love Symph work, and the fact that this track is amazing it didnt surprised me at all

    One of the greatest eletronic tracks I heard this year, trully

     

    Keep up Symph, and congrats :)

    Thank you so much, Stalker. That's an amazing thing to say. I truly am glad that you enjoyed it :)

    Wow, man that is some serious artistic ability. Maybe you could not only sell them to bars, but also to alcohol companies that are looking to market their product as something different. It doesn't have to be alcohol either. I am sure bottled water companies might be all over this. Perhaps get to know someone who could show your art at an exhibit, using different shaped bottles, colors, etc...

     

    Beautiful.

    Thanks Trance :) Y'know I've found some boutiques around here and some along the East Coast that seem very promising. I've got a great connection who is willing to help out, too.

     

    Btw, I noticed that you're from Raleigh. I'm from Greensboro. :)

    Bravo man really good. I listen to it 3 times in the road.

    Thanks, Nurbs :) On the road music is my fave.

     

    Thats a lovely composition you made dude. in between i thought i was actually listening to some track by zero cult. love the part between 2:50 and 3:30 ! get it released :)

    what a great compliment, thanks exotic!

     

    hi!

     

    dub intro, groovy and harmonic... beautiful melodies, good production...

    amazing story! great key melodies, great passages...

     

    GREAT MUSIC! I'm very impressed :)

     

    good work and very good luck, you deserve it!!!

     

    Boom

    Hey serguei, thanks so much for the kind words and encouragement. :)

     

    Pro work pal.

     

    The solo is a m a z i n g.It has Pink Floyd feeling.Why you didn't continue with it?

    I mean make the solo bigger and add 3 more min to the track.

     

    Like it.

    Wow! Thank you sparkunian! With the synth solo, I felt i shouldn't get too carried away otherwise I'd step into jam-band territory.

     

    This is a great track. One thing I love about Billy's work is how it seems his sounds are floating in a huge space where each sound is miles away from the next, but they all still function together somehow. I don't know how he does it. And I love the very last melody that fades the track out.

     

    Okay, so someone's going to have to take some initiative here...Someone should direct one of these labels like AlephZero to Billy's work.

    Man Per, you really know how to make me feel good about my work :D

     

    That sound at the end was a monophonic string in 3/4 time. i love the contrast that time signatures has over 4/4.

     

    im going to tell you like it is, because its what i do

     

    when i think of symphoids music i think of non conformity. non mold like sounds and structure.

     

    honestly dude this is not you. this day is mine.. thats the direction you need to be in. accessible music is great.. it will do what has to be done. but many people do accessible.. go in the this day is mine direction and do it so good you master it.. you will not only be accessible but in a league of your own. ;)

    Hey Lu Bu, I very much appreciate your comments and that you hold my music making potential in such high regard. This Day is Mine was an exciting track to make, but I truly can't stick with one style or one vibe. I have to be true to myself and the way I express myself musically. It may fluctuate in accessibilty, but the music has to be made.

     

    This is unvelievably good! Yes it could be longer.. the solo is amazing

    :) Thanks so much, Towelie! I'm really glad you liked it.

     

     

    Great as usual. :clapping:

    There's something about the bass. It's nice, but not perfect enough. It should be more like those phat basses on Hallucinogen In Dub :o

    Thanks a lot, Bahamut! I'm in agreement with you about the bass. I've been listening on different systems and it's just not meaty enough. I'm gonna tweak this a little more. Thanks for pointing that out :)

     

     

    Superb, as always. Nothing more to add really.

     

     

    He must be too shy or too modest to do it himself. :lol:

    But I agree that music of such quality should get released. :rolleyes:

    Hey McKoy, thanks man :) Well getting my release out there is not so much because of shyness, but rather fear. I'm really taking the plunge this time though.

     

    I love it, i'm still running through the first play but i can already tell it's gonna get some milage on these speakers... Thanks a bunch for sharing, it's got soundsignature all over, but i notice things improving and maturing even more. You are not on your way, you are there :)

    congrats

    Thanks so much, RAH. You're too kind :)

    Thanks so much for the great review, Snap. What I'd like to do is add this to my first release once I get the last track completed. The one I'm currently working on is a bastard of a track :D It's taken me months to get a solid grip on.

    Totally cool, Billy. :clapping: :drama:

    Thaks, Per :)

     

    :o OMG Symph! Awesome!

     

    This thread has been running since ages and I haven't seen it till now. Damn.. I should move out of Off-Topic.

    Hey thanks so much, Santo. Really nice to hear that

     

    A.W.E.S.O.M.E. :blink:

    Did they pay you for this?

     

    Keep experimenting! :clapping:

    Thanks a lot Go-Goa :) They paid me, but not in cash. They give me free bottles whenever I drop by. Last time I picked up some they gave me a huge trashbag's worth :lol:
