My firstie (probably crappy)
« on: August 20, 2009, 16:18:24 »

Hello there.

Here is my first module that sounds less bad that all my other tries to make anything.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. I know, the samples...

I made it in approximately one day and a half, but it took me several months to get the knowledge and the inspiration.

Not bad for a firstie, at least you have:

+ Drums
+ Melody - learning to use effects, excellent to see.
+ Padding with arps
+ Bassline, but it's very weak being a solid-on note in the first part. I think you got the idea by 1:22 in.
- Unfinished ending

It just started to go somewhere and you faded it out... Oh well :)


By the way please can you use a proper email address. You have subscribed to this topic, therefor it's sending you email and now I'm getting bounced emails. I do not approve of 'temporary' email addresses being used on here for this very reason.

Well, about the drums, I think they are quite bad, because my kick is just a square using a very quick portamento down (still, it sounds quite good), and my snare is... white noise.

About the ending, I know it's quite classical and easy, but you might agree with me that it's the hardest part... I already had a lot of trouble for the pattern C... And I was a bit running out of ideas, too.

Well yeah, sorry about that. I used the "delete account" function to delete my old account, but when I registered I had an error because my email was already used (weird, huh). And I give my email address in the module.

Anyway, thanks for your detailed reply. ;)

Drums - it's not about the samples, it's the programming (how you use them) which is important.

Some chip musicians start out with stuff waaaay to complex to begin with and end up with stuff that sounds like pretentious "art-nouveau" (bollocks) with no or very little structure ending sounding like a right mess. You didn't so, good!

re your mail address issues, thanks for another two bounced emails ;) One thing you need to know is that your account deletion is never instant, it requires approval, and these things hardly ever get checked.

I removed the -REMOVE THIS- from your new email address and manually activated your account, so you should be fine now.
