Dawn of Man
When God created us , He said "It is good". This was a cause for celebration. This song might represent that celebration of the "Dawn of Man" http://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=12274464 Peace and Blessings, John

You're certainly brimming with ideas as this track demonstrates, and your production skills are first class. I would have preferred to hear one of the ideas expanded into a more cohesive single track to be honest, but that's probably not what you were aiming for.

blip, Thanks for listening and for the nice compliments. I don't think a single cohesive track is in my mind. I kind of like to make things a bit epic as much as possible, then hopefully the piece will be remembered. Some day maybe a movie producer will have me do something for a real movie. That would be kool. Peace and blessings, John

I was wondering if all the samples flow together smoothly in this piece? Do all of the different beats overlap and flow together right? I used a long reverb to make sure the samples flowed right into the next sample and wondering if anyone can find anything that doesn't fit in right and if so where in the time line? Thanks for taking a second listen in advance.
Peace and blessings, John

I don't do well at dawn :-( Not really a morning person?
I didn't get the transitions, i.e., 54 seconds, 1:18, 1:49, etc... it seems like it's a song that got hit on the head and is transitioning from one memory/personality to another. It seems to jump too quickly and too dramatically to me.
What it needs is to continue coherently on one of these good themes, then a break/chorus, and some meaningful words that talk about the creation (IMO).
Sittin downtown in a railway station one toke over the line.

Robbie, Sorry you don't do dawn well and are not a morning person. It is the best part of my day, every day. As for the transitions I'll have to adjust the long reverb - longer and that will take care of the problem. As to what you would do sounds like a good thing. Maybe on a future piece I will try your ideas. Sorry the piece didn't work for you. It did however seem to work for others, based on what they had to say. Guess we can't please all the people all the time, although that would be nice. Thanks for the listen and for your comments, they are always appreciated.
Peace and blessings, John

Hey John, well for me the production and sound of this is spectacular but it felt like there were four songs on the radio and someone kept changing between the channel...you`re just getting into the groove and it drastically changes. Though all the ideas in here would work into major cool tunes on their own I feel structured correctly.
Whoa.... to you ...oh...earth and sea...
for the devil sends the beast with wrath.....
because he knows the time is short.....
let him who hath understanding.....
reckon the number of the beast.....
for it is a human number...
it`s number is.....
666 So if JESUS rose from the DEAD Does that mean he`s the ORIGINAL ZOMBIE?

I like the production, although I'm not into trance music. My worthless opinions: I don't think the changes are drastic at all. In fact, I think the beat was repetitious and could have used some changes to it and a key change or two could be a plus as well. If I think of this being utilized for the credits section at the end of a movie, or played for disco dancing, then it would be just fine as it sits. As a 'listening' piece, (as it sits) I would prefer it to be no more than two minutes.

alkie, Thanks for listening and for your thoughts on this piece. You are correct in your thoughts and the reasoning is because in a video piece, at least when I create then have room for footage changes throughout the video. So, when creating many of my video pieces, I have to allow for various changes in the music and that is why it is hard to place it in here on the forum for review, because not everyone will get what various changes in my work are for and how I pre-think and plan for future additions and subtractions once I link the music piece to a video. Hope this helps you to understand where I am coming from when I post these types of musical pieces. They are not just a listening piece, but a complex work of art preparation awaiting video production.
Peace and blessings, John

ScottyTunes, Thanks for listening and for your comments, they to are much appreciated. Again, as I explained to alkie, this piece is for a video, with intended musical changes that could be shortened, lengthened, volume lowered or increased, etc, that would work out with markers in a video production. It is a complex idea awaiting its' master role in a video production work, not just a listening piece.
Peace and blessings, John
