Hey all,
I've uploaded the full 192 kbps mix of one of my new tunes to my server. You can download it here (right click, save as) :
icone-everywhere__original_mix__192kbps_ [updated]
I'm not sure yet if I will keep the (recognizeable) vocals in this tune... Might make things a bit too obvious and predictable. Lemme know what you think about it :)
Cheers,
Wim |

Great track as always. I have a few nitpicks though.
First, the choir, great melody there, but i don't think they should be solo'd for so long because they are pretty obviously synth choirs. Maybe filter them some more or put different kinds of effects on them to make them not stand out as much.
Also, the bassline is excellent, but imo too loud when coupled with the kick, sometimes overpowers the lead.
Other than that great work. Love those strings. |

great one, as always, could use it in one of my next mixes :)
just 1 thing: the vocals are too quiet... |

| Track has a lot of energy and at the same time a very calm break that fits perfectly into it. A combination like that isn't easy to achieve without making the track loose it's power, but you have managed to do it perfectly. I do believe that this might be the best of you that I've herd so far. |

SoM :: thanks for your comment once more mate, you're free to spill your opinion(s) towards me, they're always helpful ;)
Well, I didn't sing those choirs myself, of course they are synth choirs :) I honestly wouldn't hear the difference myself between a softsynth choir or hardware choir though, what makes it that way?
DJ NGE :: I know about the vocals, I will probably leave them out as a whole and master the track up again. Glad you like it :)
Digital Rain :: thx mate! I'm glad to see you like it. |

Nah, I just mean synth choirs in general, software or hardware. Im not really a fan of them except for in certain cases, like with MK-S' tracks because they are gated. Maybe try out some different effects with them.
They sound incredible in the last couple tracks you've done cause you've backed em up with other sounds, its just that solo bit that bothers me. |

| You need a couple of Voices of the Apocolypse samples Wim. I'd love to see you incorporate those into your work. :) |

don't like the vocal... some vocal like that's in it now would be nice.. but not the matrix vocal.... and you have already used it.. hehe ;)
otherwise it sounds really nice.. agree with SoM thou about the lenght of the choir... if it would have been a real choir it would have rocked.. but not a synth choir
anyway.. great track as usual :) |

Thanks for lightening that up mate :) You think maybe a volume effect to gate them might work better? Or should I just get rid of that solo part in your opinion?
Thanks to the rest, I'm glad you guys like it. I didn't know anyone would remember the previous time I used those vocals, was like ages ago ;) I'm gonna update the mix and remove the vocals this afternoon, first gotta do an exam :) I'll upload again when ready. |

awsome song as usual. ;)
didnt mind the vocals in the song.
one of the synths in this i would really like to know how to do, it comes in at 1:16, sort of a pizzicato sring type synth.
great work. :D keep it up |
Thanks mate!
The pluck synth is a Pro52 synth, I love this synth for that sound specifically (and some sound fx) ;) What I did was setting the keyboard follow to zero, filter decay to a little further than halfway, same as the volume decay. Release about the same, maybe a little further. Resonance to about 25%, you'll have to see what filter cutoff freq suits best. As for the oscillators, it might already be enough to set them to sawtooths and detune the second one just a tiny bit.
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Wim |
