"A composition for a scene in a story that involves the resolution of long blood feud between two clans that has spanned many generations."
 
Sorry to say the piece did not evoke that feeling. Also, not my genre so I may have missed the mark here.

Nice piece of Electronica.  I'm not heavily into this genre, but you make it interesting on this.  The use of the different types of waves on the lead synth and how you blend them held my interest. (I'm tempted to get my hands on the Z3ta+2 too)  I also like the textures. Great!

Wow! I am really happy you liked my piece, especially when it isn't your favourite genre. I don't really have a genre yet. It depends on the picture I have in my head and the sounds I am playing around with. Many thanks for the time you took to listen and comment.

Totally not my thing, and I loved it.  I always like it when a genre I'm not really into manages to pull me in for a minute.  Nice job. 


I had a lot of fun creating this song. Thanks for taking the chance to listen to it even though it isn't your favourite genre. I am really honoured that you liked it.

Thanks a lot for listening to something that isn't your genre. I was going to explain the scene I had in my head when I was composing this, but I am not sure it would mean anything. I don't know how useful the description part is, and I have been thinking about not putting so much in that space, because music is very personal.

I'm that way too.  I have experimented with Electronica.  I think I produced one song in that genre years ago.  I'm like you in that I go with whatever I think the song calls for.

That's fun, I liked the part around 1:40 the best, and the ritard at the ending . . .  I'd like to listen to this while I was wandering around trying to capture Pokemon whatevers, if I did that sort of thing, which I sadly don't. How uncool of me.
 
Mix-wise, I'd try to give the kick drum a little more weight. Is it eq'd to cut everything below 150hz ? Or did you mix on headphones perhaps? You might check it on other listening systems?
 
nice wobbly, glitchy job! You know your synths.

Thanks for listening. I am glad you liked it. I was out chasing Pokemon, until I used my monthly wireless data up.😟

Thanks too for the advice about the kick drum. I will try boosting it. I don't know much about mixing or mastering. (I only started using a compressor recently). I do use headphones- or did before the ear pieces broke off the ones I was using yesterday. So until I can save enough to get new ones, I will be using other listening systems. I haven't been using any equalizer that I know of but I will certainly take a look.

I really like playing around with the synths, their are so many ways to make interesting sounds. I mostly use z3ta+2 and Dimension Pro.
