well hello again, i just finished my first song of the year 2004 (and the first song i've done in about a month as well i think) and i would really really appreciate it if some of the xltronic members here would listen and tell me what they think. its about 9.6mb/7min/192kbps and it is un titled: thank you |

very atmospheric. the piano needs to be a little more gentle, and the mental scratches are unneccesary. althought i love the synths ambience, the helicopter sounds, and the majority of the piano notes. good stuff |

i would call the song "deusexmachina" cause its such a powerful name. seeing as the helicopter coming to retrieve the near dead was seen as a "machine of god" back in the war. and this is such a war song w/o the scratches. |

I like the beginning very well, its a pretty good track. You know something funny, I was taking a shower earlier and the words Deus Ex Machina popped in my head, however I don't think that should be the title, thats too common, think of something original to call it. |

Mmm this is good stuff. As it started I was thinking Boards of Canada, then the percussion type beat kicked in and I thought eeek that don't sound right. But then I figure what the hell its fresh maybe I ought to have an open mind. Yes this has kinda confounded my expectations especially with the piano and all. Yes this is a deep piece wouldn't necessarily put it on to boogie down to or really to put me a good mood but this is good. Very filmic, the piano work is exceptional. Some serious quality on the board these days. I don't think one can fault this to be honest, certainly not from a technical or aesthetic point of view. And you've carried the piece well over the duration without it becoming boring which was a big fear when I had when I started listening. |

thx u (i don't want to say "thank you" because my last 3 posts in this thread begin with that :P) this is a bump (and hopefully the final bump) i am sorry if this annoys the people who don't want to see "my new track" topics. |

yes, I like everything but the glitchy scratch stuff, which kind of seems out of place with regard to the rest of the track, I love the synths , the "helicopter-sound" and the piano though. I agree with gwelymernans that the paino maybe a bit too harsh sounding and could use perhaps a filter of some kind, but that's only a matter of taste, in the end it comes down to what you think it should sound like. This maybe the first track (coming from this site) to stay on my HD since Virginpusher's Lucidikah stuff. p.s.: If you have a version without the scratchy sounds I hold myself available to receive it ;) |

the "scratchy" sounds were actually the main focus of this track when i started it and i just sort of added the piano as a sort of interlude type thing or soemthing. i suppose it wouldn't be too difficult for me to do an edit of this without the percussion but i don't have one available right now. maybe i will get around to it sometime.. also (random information ahead!!), the "helicopter sound" is actually not really a helicopter, it is a JPEG file i opened in goldwave that sounded a lot like a helicopter (which is strange because most jpegs are just static/noise) |

Oops, I guess I ruined it for you then. But I really love all the rest, and that's really a rare occurence in my case. |
||||||||

??? what did you ruin? i don't think you ruined anything for me.. i hope you don't think i was offended by something you said or something :) thank you for listening |

Interesting track - starts out BOCish, gets into this Snaresy sounding noise, then the piano mixes it up even more. Could be shorter and more focused but it's a very interesting listen. |

My response was supposed to be: "oops I didn't realize it was meant for the scratchy sound to be "main thing". And then place an emoticon such as: :S or :X |
||||||||
|

|
|
excellent track! |
||||||||
|
|

well that was just my original intention, as i developed the track i think the piano part became much more "powerful" than the percussion. and once again thanks to everyone who listened (and if anyone else listens in the future just pretend i made a post thanking you because i feel guilty about bumping the topic) |
