Hmmm.
Gotta love when you get an idea and decide to work on it before it goes away, eh? The rhythm an the beat work together, giving it that -slight- spanish feeling to it. The string choice are alright IMO (...or is it a trumpet? Can't really tell), but the composition itself is great.
Nice job, save for the repetitiveness.
Thanks, yeah, it's very repetitive. Yes, they are trumpets, but it does sound kind of like strange strings as well.
This is one of those songs where I didn't truly intend to pour any time into. I need to do things like this more often since I usually tend to forget ideas often.
¡Es Fantastico!
quite a marvelous job and spanish-themed sound which is a refreshment to hear on NG. It does fit the RPG Sandy Town theme very nicely! The chord progression is very nice, has a nice latin touch, and sounds good with the plucked sounds you use for it. The bassline sounds brilliant too, and I like how the two rhythms play in accordance smoothly with each other. Claps are a good fit, and I like the simple but upfront beat in the later portion of the track. The brass sounds are real nice (and was what I was hoping for when I heard the intro :] ) and calm over the top, and together they just blend together with quite an exceptional sound.
it is a bit short and repetive though- but its damn nice for what it is and the 45 minutes that you worked on this for. Again, such a great creation that is quite well polished, but has the potential again to be an amazing track. some repetivness in the chord progression, like you could try changing the voices in the progression a bit more- and incoporate an authentic spanish sound by using a chord progression based from the phyrgian and the harmonic minor scale (if you know music theory). There's also room for a melody or two more in here, on a lead instrument that plays a relatively fast riff (a perfect fit would be a nylon guitar or solo trumpet player in maybe an interlude). and again, percussion is great in here and overal l sounds well-rounded, but if you were to work on more- look into including some latin based percussion such as castanets, maracas, guiros, etc. should be a great fit! and some latin based rhthyms with some triplets would be cool too-i think ive gone overboard with suggestions..
but really man, great job with developing another sweet composition. you always develop some very memorable themes. did you have three songs in the top 30 this week as well? congrats!
Thanks again for the wonderful review.
I suppose in the future I may turn this into something much fuller and completely remastered.
Your suggestions make perfect sense. I just became a bit lazy and grabbed a few sounds to finish it quickly, haha. Thanks again for checking out the goods.
Butterscotch!
Nice, I love the Spannish feel to it. Could have done with a few more instruments though.
