A Work in Progress....

Yes - I know this is repetitive - I'm working on melodies right now...

Any advice?

Cheers!

I'd do some processing on the drums. Either on individual channels or in a drum bus. Like some Tape distortion.
They sound a bit "straight out of the box".
And maybe increase the piano's volume some

 

[Adam_Gill]

Thanks!

Yep - working on the piano. It is UP but fades after the first 8 bars of intro. I've amended drums and took out the nasty "glitch" tap. A;lso added a Warm Synth to replace the piano, towards the ned. Shaping up as a good intro. Now gotta think melodies...

File is updated on soundcloud ^

Drums sound better indeed

 

[Adam_Gill]

Getting there - it's too long and it lacks a lead/melody... but I am working on it!

Maybe think about an intimate breathy female vocal on it? My first listen to it triggered the start of this Chem.Bros tune in my head (well, the bit with the vocal), got a similar kind of vibe to it.

You could squeeze some nice acoustic guitar in there as well?

 

[Osmose]

Acoustic guitar would be a nice addition indeed

 

[Adam_Gill]

Yep yep - on it.... more tomorrow....

 

[vocoderboy]

reverse it, time stretch it and bit crush it with gating and side chaining

 

[Osmose]

Don't think Adam is the kind of guy to do so

 

[Adam_Gill]
