i'll check it out. i'm an ambient fan.

edit

i like it, but imo it could do without some fx/samples; sometimes less is more.

I have to ask this and I hope I'm not offending your creativity... but is there a problem with the file format or mp3 compression? Or is that the way it's supposed to be.
If it is meant to be like that then I am definately not feeling it. But to me it sounds more like the data is corrupted.

Hmmm, wait there is something going on in the back ground... I think it's the file that's got a problem.

the distortion, fuzz, and droning are all intentional

Eeeek, I goes I put my foot right in it lol! I hope I didn't offend. This track isn't really for me then and I don't have the knowledge on the genre to offer any constructive criticism.

what software did you use? i've been thinking of producing sme ambient for some time now, but i am not sure what software is more appropriate for it.

lol this was entirely done with absynth, used through fruity loops
definitely not the best chocie, but ya know
it works
hopefully in the next few days i'll have 2 more cuts up. this song originally came to be for a video project my friend is working on, needed something atmosphereic, background stuff. and so the first half starts in a trainyard so i'ma be adding some fuxed samples of trains and shit to it, and extending the length to like 8 minutes. hopefully when i get that done, if the train shit doesn't sound that great, i'll have 2 versions, one thats what i imagined, and another that was used for his project
thanks for the comments everyone

Hey thats pretty good, I would sample between 1:15 and 1:45 and use that little melody to lead into something creative... something trancey... hehehe.

Not sure why that would be a worse choice than any other Softsynth and DAW?

That said, I actually enjoyed the full version more than the original posting. It's not would I would choose to listen to but was a nice break from the usual stuff here.

Good job!

link updated one last time with the final version

hey mate, dont get me wrong.. i tried to listen but had to switch off half way..

im not a "ambient" listener, so i i really couldnt say if its good or bad for that genre. i only hear atmospheric pads.. imo it could use more melodies, and a bit shorter aswell about 4/7 mins should be good,

not my cup of tea, but keep up the producing though

greetz,


Bidor
