Disc image to be posted as soon as I have one.

I've been getting a lot of inspiration from music styles I haven't made much before. I think I'm going to try making more stuff like this again. It's a lot of fun. All instruments played in via midi keyboard with some smaller edits to fix velocity and stuff afterwards.

Enjoy!

Edit: Oh damn, this got frontpaged? Sweet. Thanks to whoever did that, ilu <3

Again, Skye doing a sick track!

Mixing is perfect, all the genres combinations are awesome. Loving that jazz piano melody. Everything panned very well and all the instruments are smooth.

Sweet the melodies around 2:29 are dope :D

Overall, really nice job, you nailed it on every single aspect! Keep it up.

SkyeWint responds:

Hey man! Thanks for all the compliments, damn :D

This piece was a ton of fun to make - it's not even at the point where I'd like it to be, I was somewhat trying to reach the point of the artist Anomalie. But then, he's ridiculously good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_-6z1k5Kbs

Maybe I'll get there someday!

Such a mesh of genres this one. Starts smooth, jazzy; moves onto something else entirely... difficult genre to place (oh hey there's actually a genre for tracks with more than one genre now) but really cool too listen too. Smooth and easy listening, with plenty of variation in pace and style... but it all blends nicely.

SkyeWint responds:

I love genre-meshing. Always fun to mix together genres that don't seem like they should go together and have them seamlessly come together into one cohesive *thing* that feels good to listen to!

This is great, Skye! Love the piano intro and the flawless transition to the drop. :) I think I heard part of this before but not this extended version. There's a side of me that wants to hear a piano-only version of this because I love the the last two sections the most. Keep it up! :D

SkyeWint responds:

Hey McG! I'm glad you like the whole thing!

Sadly, I don't think a piano-only version will really work for this piece, haha. It's not exactly organized in a way that would support it! That said, I might try to figure out a way to replace the non-piano parts in the future. We'll see. :)
