Hey!
Here is a quick song I wrote for an experimental university project I'm a part of in which we created a simple reaction-based game that tests people's reflex time in response to visual cues, and it uses this music to see how the tempo and beat of the music affects the reflexes. As such, you'll notice that around a minute into the music, the tempo suddenly speeds up. It sounds a little sudden, but it needs to be that way for our university experiment.
Nothing out of this world and totally out of my comfort zone, but I haven't posted music in a while and I figured I should release this one to inform people that I'm not dead :).
Plugins used: Omnisphere, 3xOsc, default FL effect plugins, and Vengeance drum samples.
Check it out on YouTube for a video of the FL project file!
That is very interesting! Good!
I am not one of the people who really like this genre, but I must admit that this is very well done, I hope better things :3
Groovy instrumentation and nice sense of suspense in the first minute. The frantic melodies at 1:02 are a good fit, and I love the grouchy bass. If I had to complain about one thing, it might be that the underlying rhythm of the piece is pretty square for most of the piece. That said, you did a good job of keeping it interesting with all of the automations and secondary melodies. I would've liked to hear another climactic moment towards the end of the piece, but I'm sure it fit the premise of the project well. Kinda reminds me of "Imminence" in that it doesn't quite max out on emotional highs. Anyway, glad to see you post on the Grounds again, Step! ^^
Step responds:
Thanks for another review! Nice to see you still around :).
You're right about the rhythm being pretty monotonous. In general I kinda toned things down in this track compared to my usual more bombastic tracks. Using subtlety as a way of maintaining interest instead of resorting to climactic, in-your-face stuff is something I continue to struggle with!
Thanks again.
Fun :) Made for good background music as I wrote my emails this morning...
Step responds:
Glad I could provide the soundtrack to your morning bureaucracy! :p
Thanks for the review!
