Tracking / Re: Perfect computer keyboards for tracking
« on: September 04, 2010, 10:40:58 »
Isn't it better to buy a cheaper MIDI keyboard that spares you all of these problems for a similar price?

Look what I made! / Re: Stamen goes to spacesynth (Everdune)
« on: January 29, 2010, 23:34:40 »
Hey there, surely I know your modules, and hearing that you're into spacesynth is very pleasing, for I tend to like spacesynth more and more.
I'm gonna check out the tracks in a short time, but from what I've heard so far, it has the right mood.
Looking forward to hearing more

I'm glad you like the track 
The thing that reminds you of Hammer is surely the percussion pattern with the bassdrum & cabasas, that's what he's heavily using. I also couldn't stop hearing the beginning of Crockett's theme in this track when composing it
After all yes, he is one of my influences exactly as you said. Which I like, actually

Look what I made! / First try in creating a mellow atmospheric mood - "Into the Dawn"
« on: December 28, 2009, 22:28:11 »
Heya all,
Last few days I've been working on this piece, as a part of my effort of learning to use VSTis as well as getting a break from fast dance tracks and thus creating something more mellow.
The idea behind this was a calm "mood of sunrise" or such (that's what I was imagining while composing. I also threw in a couple of effects to make it more spectacular and moving.
I think this is a big leap forward and would be glad if I could hear what YOU think about it.

Enjoy, and leave a comment if you want
Thanks

Look what I made! / My latest production - three syth/dance pieces
« on: September 19, 2009, 23:42:58 »
Hello there.
So after almost a year I gave it another shot and I was surprised how better my new tracks are in comparison to the "old" ones.
But I'm not here for bragging of course. I'm here to share them. I made these two songs, "KRM" and "Fever" shortly after one another and they are the latest (and IMO best) things I've done so far, Fever being the newest. I have to say I'm pretty much addicted to the melodies appearing in Fever "Cruncher" is a bit older - and uses pretty low quality samples, but I still like the sound it has.
I would be very grateful for any feedback you could give me, be it positive or negative one.
Here are the links:

Please, tell me what you think!

Tracking / Re: The ultimate SONG DURATION question!

Maybe it's just the fact I hate short songs and try to prolong them even when I don't have enough ideas...

Tracking / The ultimate SONG DURATION question!
« on: September 11, 2009, 22:18:41 »
Hiya there fellows.
I'll get straight to the point:
I still have hard time choosing the right amount of repetition of my songs.
I can come up with some ideas, but the problem arises in either of these two cases (most of the time):
a) I want to make the song at least the standard 3-4 minute length and don't really know if I have enough ideas not to make it sound repetitive, or if it's actually better to repeat a bit. I simply don't possess the right "feel" how much is right, how much is too little and how much is too much.
b) I absolutely love some section/sound and tend to overuse it, because I just want to listen to it again and again.
I noticed that some of my most favourite songs (e.g. Reptile & Sky modules) are only about 2 minutes long; however I tend to hate short songs and that contributes to the overrepeating issue.
Do you have any similar problems? Do you have any tips on how to solve it? Any "mental guidelines" how to repeat in a healthy manner? Or is it only experience? You know, I hate to ruin a good track just because a stupid issue that the (in other aspects good) idea repeats too much.

Look what I made! / Re: [Orchestral] Dauntless (MP3)
« on: August 26, 2009, 13:47:08 »
I have heard many orchestral pieces and I must say this one is really different from what I've heard so far.
Not much to my taste anyway, but technically, it's really good, the percussions are really detailed.
Keep up the good work!

Feedback & Suggestions / Re: Tentative Idea: Module Shoutcast station
« on: June 17, 2009, 20:44:53 »
Guys,
the Demovibes radio is something. I somewhat never thought of having a demoscene radio, now I'm addicted!
A BIG thank you goes to you guys, you provided me with endless demoscene resource (hence I was dumb enough not to think of this possibility). Anyway, this also kicked the creativity in myself and I began tracking again, finally.
Thanks.

« on: June 15, 2009, 09:35:27 »
I particullary liked "Cleopatra" by Xerxes, but I don't know where to find it anymore.
Anyway, THE one and only mod for me will always be Algorhythmic by Deathjester.
It was the first module I ever listened to and THE module that made me jump on the tracking train. It's still the best one for me.
