Nice
What inspired you to make this, and how did you make this?
I really like those sounds at 1:44-1:55, What are they?
Reviews for "Anastassia"
merlin responds:
It was actually inspired by a girl I met via the internet. This is the musical/instrumental version of the song I originally composed just on my acoustic guitar. I made it with the program Reason, and also recording myself actually playing the guitar. So it's all synthetic sounds minus the guitar. from 1:44-1:55 its just piano, bass, drums, and my playing guitar.
Thanks for your comment!
I like it
Hi there.
I like the song, sounds nice. In my opinion, it would sound even better if you changed the leading instrument and introduced more guitars (even an electric guitar at some points) Lyrics or some vocals might be interesting too. It's a great job. That's just my opinion, I'm not a proffessional, but I like it!
Keep on creating your sound.
merlin responds:
Thanks for the review, yomismo! There actually is a recorded version of the song with vocals, it's alot longer, and never made its way to any ears other than mine. I guess everyone's their own worst critic. I'm sure some day I'll get around to recording the real guitar part for the song, it has alot more complexity and originality to it. The whole song is based off a song I made on the acoustic, then just added the rest.
vocals?
nice, but what about vocals? think about it
Keep the peace!
merlin responds:
lemme know what you think! there are lyrics for it, and here they are:
i turn my gaze up to the stars
that's how far away you are
i see you sitting on the moon
i send a note tied to a balloon
i see you smile down from space
through my spyglass as i wave
maybe i'm falling into a trap
into a pit,head over heels
maybe i'm falling for you oh-oh
maybe i'm finally asking myself
why the hell aren't i up there
tell me what is it that you most fear
maybe it's life or maybe its not
can i be something that you could want
at least for a day, or maybe a year
the moon wont have to catch your tears
Anastassia come here
i've got a plan to bring you home
i have to see if this will work
ill pay a visit to your dreams
and tell you how to get to me
raise anchor
set sail
you'll reach me
you will
just follow
the stars
they'll map out
your course
i see you
draw close
so stunning
through my scope
if you're scared
if you fall
ill catch you
from your world
pretty good...
prolly a stronger beat,
maybe some bass guitar(if you think that sounds any good)
Good Melody
I like the melody, you listen to it and after some minutes you still remeber it. Inspired in one movie maybe? The only thing that I think can be improved is the bass.
Probably this song will work much better with a few more velocity (only a few) and a powerfull house bass. Otherwise good work!
(Check out my last track, 'That Sequence Live Mix')
merlin responds:
Thanks for your input! I listened to That Sequence Live Mix, and all of your other songs. I'm very grateful to have someone as talented as you give your input. When I get around to tweaking with the song again, I'll consider the BPM, and bass.
