^^^You guys are crazy!^^^
Happy New Year All!
So, a little note behind this.
A few days ago I was seeking inspiration through my old folders of quirky bits and chunks of music from days past.
Nothing seemed to stand out but I remembered seeing an old sample pack(which was so old I couldn't even tell you where I got it) that had some cool guitar one shots.
Started fiddling around and came upon one particular sample that stuck with me through out the day and eventually landed me pulling up my guitar and over dubbing it into Ableton.
It's a uppedy riff but what followed I did not expect as I just went with the following lead.
What was especially funny was that I was humming a lead vox chop. And I actually liked it enough to possibly put some vox chops of my own. (Oh gawd)
No, this is not my normal type of track but oddly enough it interested me enough to keep going.
Still undeveloped but the composition and arrangement of tones I am liking right off the bat. Hell, this is only really 45 minutes of work,even with 8 tracks of layering on the lead.
Contemplating shortening by 4 bars the intro but otherwise to my surprise it is coming together somewhat fast and complete...this is what I got,whatya think...to cheesy? lol

This could be the 2nd track to my new EP but it's just ok, nothing great tbh

Yeah F3B is crying for a vocal. I that a guitar sample? Have you tried expanding on the guitar lick so it's not repeating as much?
Ocean Roll's sub bass line is just sublime!

Here is my humble WIP in Funk/Disco style so at this point may work may not be a perfect reflection of this style but at lease I will take on this production challenge
Give it a run (I know is short at this point) and let me know if I met this Funk/Disco standards
Cheers,
Darek

Originally posted by TranceLover007 Phil, I can't put my fingers around this track - from one perspective I like this melodic idea but from another, I don't hear anything driving this WIP enough to make me move with it (if you know what I mean). I would start with this guitar (if this is a guitar?) sound at 0:05 sec mark - I would make sure that this sounds really authentic guitar sounds as this is a part of your primary riff elements. Later on (and here is the part I really have a problem identifying an issue) I would try to find a way of clearly defined rhythm/groove/vibe in your production. It is only my view on this WIP so please don't take this too serious if you disagree Cheers, Darek |

Originally posted by SystematicX1 Darek, So ,the version I uploaded for some reason had the sub off. I as well didnt have a lot of channels on for some reason. The new one has those "driven" areas addressed. As for the guitar area...The first guitar you hear is a sample and the second guitar (the scratch strumming) is me. What I believe you are hearing is the "tube" effect...I could be wrong. Or,were you referring to the progression of the notes? Another note...I am most certainly sold on this being a vocal track. I am also composing the track in such a manner, meaning that the vox will start at :08 (yes, on it's own it sounds a little off on the beat count,but there is a reason) The Arp, for now, is a placeholder as I am still auditioning tones but I am thinking it could be a good replacement for a lead. Thus letting the vox stand out more as it is going to need a pretty powerful voice. |

Originally posted by SystematicX1 I like this and I get that funk vibe but I believe (and guessing here) that you might get more of a punchier affect with a tempo increase? |

Originally posted by TranceLover007 Hey Phil, How is your EQ looks like - on my end this track sounded dry and is asking for some compensation in mid-low/low end. Cheers, Darek |
