In an attempt to express my love towards _____________ ___________________ J E A N E T T E ___________________ _____________ I dedicate this song to her. March 30th-April 4th The samples in this song have been ripped from modules by Awesome, Warder, Spin Dizzy, Skaven, Walkman, Pulse, Jase, Purple Motion and others. Sorry I still don't have my "own" samples library, but I had to finish this tune at all costs. Forgive me =) April 16th I had VERY much trouble with this one... after some weeks' work (didn't have much time this month) IT saved all the instruments as pure garbage because Windows was clearing its cache files at the same time... grrrrrrrrr... It took me several days to reconstruct the samples - yes, they were ripped, I admit it, but the finetuning and resizing was very unnerving anyway! Now the worst part. Today they played a song of Gheorghe Zamfir (performed by James Last) on the radio, and to my horror I realized that it sounded quite the same as the starting notes of my module... no wonder, since Jeanette likes Zamfir a lot and the vague memory of his work must have interfered with what I had proudly called "my idea". Well, that is kinda different to the story with that Mike Oldfield touch of "A Knight's Tale"... (greetings to Zaba, BTW) but heck, THIS really upsets me. I think after finishing this song I'll let go tracking for a while... April 19th Resized some samples... and discovered something strange but useful: By increasing the size of a sinoid sample (like the flute) with inter- polation, in some cases the dreadful clicks between notes seem to vanish or they get fainter at least. Too bad it didn't work with the female voice sample. :-( April 22th/23th/24th Cannot find a way to write a DECENT alternative theme for the last part ... the guitar is getting on my nerves... I don't even know whether it is actually POSSIBLE to PLAY these notes in real life, using only one guitar and two hands!? ;-) May 4th I added the finishing touches yesterday night. There are still some little errors but I hope not too many people'll find them out :-) If you copy this song to a tape, make sure the equalizer of your stereo equipment is in the exact middle everywhere, and turn off any bass amplification you have. Dolby B recommended. Gargoyle '99 Email: gargoyle.mk_gmx.net This file was downloaded from the TuneStore Current URL if not changed: www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Stadium/1822

I felt that the main melody was to widely spread, it mainly kept going on and on, and never really came back to repeat some patterns, I know repetition is a bad thing, but I do believe a little bit of it throughout the whole song would be nice. The soft beats added a nice effect to the song, and really made it come alive. Overall the artist did a good job, I will wait for another release from him. The artist made good use of vibrato, and fade in/fade out, and from listening to it from a surface point of view no serious mistakes can be picked out. Although I am not sure about some use of certain samples in particular areas, but it still sounds nice. Sample quality is high, but not to the point of perfection.
