Drunk Sample: Oceanlab - Clear Blue Water (Remix) - Better Quality!

This i'd say is probably my best production yet. I am getting closer and closer to making a full awesome quality track. I've been working hard in fruity, but havn't been able to get quality till around a few days ago.

Anyone know how to get the crap off the filter? The popping or whatever?

Thanks,
Allen

I think it's just because I put FM compression on it

I'll put the one straight exported up when it's uploaded.


Posted by Allen&Bream on Jul-07-2005 21:08:

Ok, uploaded with no FM compression.

nice melody, overall feels tight and pumped. If I had to critise I'd say the kicks not loud enough - it needs to punch through more. the whole tune seems eg'd very high up in the mix which i think is something happening more and more these days, which is not a problem, but you can forget the bottom end... after all u want it in a club ultimately.

I can see you work hard on your melody - like me. I think melody is very important, half the freaks here only care about EQ and compression, so dont let them put u down.

u will make it - good stuff!

Hey there,

The leadsound is great, the break is nice. The lead itself has problems during the lower parts when it comes up, it cracks a bit.

When all comes together it is a nice sounding track with good energy. The kick itself is a bit light. But I like the sound. Mastering needs a lot of work still. Too much high end compared to the low and mids.


Overall very decent sounding work. Looking forward to the whole track.

Cheers!

Personally, I think it sounds better with the hi's up more. With them lower it sounds dull. Thats why Armin's stuff sound so great. It's played through radios. FM comrpession puts massive hi's on it.

Thanks for the replies everyone

Updated:

Forgot compression on the 2nd melody, added efx, added more to the kick, and cut the hi's a bit.

the strange noise on your filter is probably down to your synth being far too overdriven, personally i think it sounds cool but you need a stronger bass to compliment it.

also, you are actually remixing the ferry corsten remix, not the original. still sounds pretty cool tho


Posted by Signal2005 on Jul-07-2005 23:38:

Incredible

ill tell ya this track just goes to show people what fruity is capable of.

Alotta people put it down like its crap but in reality its one of the top softwares out there weather they will admit it or not its tops.


Posted by dannyc on Jul-08-2005 00:37:

nice ideas, kick is extremely weak thou can barely hear it. bass is also non existant which is the backbone of a club track

nice synths but they are very thinny dont really present themselves. the general atmosphere is good thou you have the right idea alright.

seems to be some major clipping at the beginning also.

keep at it man you'll get there


Posted by Signal2005 on Jul-08-2005 01:02:

The bass is excellent and kicks are good what the hell are u talking about there rocking my subs and it sounds good on my end except for the clipping.


Posted by ichiro on Jul-08-2005 07:34:

Sorry im lost. Is this an original tune, or a remix of a Ferry Corsten tune?

What is the original tune called?!!!

I'm almost sure Luke Terry uses Fruity Loops. He makes some mighty nice stuff with it Personally, fruity sucks and If I had the money to buy a new program and learn it as in depth as I know fruity, I would

As for the Ferry Corsten remix...oops

As for being overdriven...i'll have to lower all the other sounds as the main lead is up fully up or re export it from reason.

[sarcasm]Maybe I can get trancespeeder or DJ Lane or someone from party107 to do the vocals [/sarcasm ]

Thanks for the comments everyone, looking forward to finishing the song

Oceanlab - Clear Blue Water (Ferry Corsten Remix)

I think the lead sounds great in your tune but the rest needs work, especially the percussion, and structure of the tune.

I find this fruity loops debate very interesting. I use Nuendo and I'm finding It produces a completely different sound to fruity. It seems that Fruity 'makes' things sound better easier. What i mean is I have to know more, and work hard to get things sounding right in Nuendo, its taken me years and still im not there.. - so Im asking myself why am i bothering with Nuendo when all around me I hear people banging out great sounding trance tunes in 10mins with fruity loops...!

And as for Luke Terry using fruity I thing he must, there something about his sound and your sound which is similar and has fruity written all over it. This is not a bad thing, but Ive realised you can see the difference. for example cheack out 'PEGs' tune called 'Chiba' he used Sx and vsts and there is a noticibale difference in sound..

anyway enough of my waffle anyone care t expand on these thoughts....


Posted by Signal2005 on Jul-08-2005 10:05:

I disagree about fruity bigtime.It cant just sound like everyone elses stuff unless your not creative in the first place.

And fruity is great software and as proof i offer this.

In another post a person asked how they could get the delayed effect of hybrid/bt (when there beats sort of skip/shuffle)

there were alot of answers that seemed more like a major pain in the ass of a project like chopping the sample etc to make it sound just right.

With fruity its easier than hell.

All you have to do is load a sample into granulizer right click the hold button and edit events and u have that glitch effect wherever u need it.

There people that used cubase reason etc that didnt realize this.

Until u get tottaly in depth of fruity you really dont know its capabilities.Just like any other software you have to dig the hell out of it to find what u need.Its always there if you have the patience that is.


Fruitys not that easy of software.Maybe for someone to write a quick tune in.But im sure the tune wont sound good unless you know what your doing.

Its all a matter of what you like i guess.Fruity offers me a less stress environment and makes music creation fun.I had cubase and i got bored with its blahzey feel.Felt like i was in pc class in highschool running a boring word processing program.

thats how i feel bout that.

Update: http://www.z-plutonia.org/oceanlab13.mp3

I havn't fixed the crakeling yet, but I added another bassline and it should be stronger

No, it was made in FL, I don't know why I has rebirth


Posted by Signal2005 on Jul-08-2005 15:30:

sounds good i hope thi isnt a final edit or anything i would love to hear a full track of this.

I didnt notice too much crackling anymore.Bass sounds good but the track may have too much reverb but then again thats what gives it that amazing atmosphere it provides.The hats (open hh) Could usea little more work but other than that it sounds good.The lead sort of burys your percussion.I can see what you did like alotta of people into this genre they spend massive time on leads and strings/pads but in then there percussion lacks something.Brink up the hats more let em ride longer. maybe some tamb's in there too.and build the percussion slowly with the full edit and also have massive reversed crash sweeps would sound awsome in there.


As for vocals alot of artists dont use the originals if they cant get em.If you have a mic or know someone that can sing and does try recording her doing the vocals.

A good place to look for people local that have good vocals and are looking to collaberate is http://www.myspace.com go under classifieds put in your city and your all set.

thats if you really wanna take this track to the next level and be seriouse with it that is.
