Talk about creepy (New Song)

Hello again, everyone. I've got a tune that I made recently for your listening- another creepy piece, I've yet to finish any of my other work haha. Anyone have any comments on mastering or production quality, that would be great!

Here it is:
I, Shadow Of Emotion

I appreciate the listen!

Thanks as always,
Alaster

    Mmm - not one to listen to late at night, that's for sure! Nicely done though.

    Alaster,

    This is really cool. i liked it all except for the voice thing which i thought was a bit cheesy and contrived. Very effective evocative piece with clever rhythmic construction.

    Heh ... I have to agree with Rick. Voice thing was a bit cheddar. The rest of the song was cool. Instead of the voice, take what you were doing with it all the way and use white or pink noise in its place. I think it would be more effective.

    Cheers

    I'm not sure what you are looking to sound like here. I liked it to begin with. sounds like it would be great for a movie like SOTL or TCSM.

    I liked the vibe, I would like to hear it vocalized like a NIN song though instead of a horror flick kinda thing. Nice production.

    Very interesting soundscape....like the "drum" sound that pops in and out like at 0:20 in...pretty trippy stuff....

    Hmm.

    Nice little thing you have here, but i would say you need to rearrange it and maybe even "kill you darlings". Or make it double the length.

    You use too many different drum loops that sorta "pops in and out". Choose one, and let it carry the whole song. Or at least make each part longer. 16 or 32 beats, not 4 :). As it is now, i find it "vulgar in the wrong way" when it hits me 0:20-0:30. I hope i make myself understandable:).

    the 0:52 "sound effect" is a bad choice, as the one at 1.15.



    **

    The good thing is that u have cought a really good ground to build on, the scary voice and deep sounds. I am not much into electronic experiments (have done just a few pieces), but if i were you, i would play more with the quietness, make it longer and build it up.

    Anyway... again:
    Nice little thing you have here! I enjoyed it.

    cheers
