It was great working with others on this, even though my contribution was with a background animation and some inbetween help, but I love what the final result turned into! :)

Great job everyone

Path Less Traveled

This deserves to be in some kind of horror short or game. Very ominous and eery, these drones are a perfect fit for this. The kind of drum pattern which you are using here reminds me a lot of a 90s drumloop from the Distorted Reality sample CD. You should really give the OST of Rayman 2 a listen some time, some of your ambient tracks remind me so much of the work of Eric Chevalier on the Rayman 2 OST.

Great use of percussion in combination with the synths. Not a huge fan of the distorted part around 03:33, but the advent of business around 04:00 and later adds to the 'storyline' in this piece of a chaotic and unknown path which leads to strange ways and an unexpected journey.

That hi-hat effect around 04:45 is very nice.

Where did you get the bird samples from? Fadeout and outro work great.

Magnificent piece.

Wow! Thank you for such a wonderful in depth review! I used to listen to the Rayman 1 CD when I was a kid. I never got a hold of the 2nd game though. I should look into it for a listen. I suppose this song could be dark or light themed depending on the visuals used. I like when music has a broad bandwidth of emotions to work with. It’s more like real life that way IMO. I’m so happy you saw a story line in this. It was written as such. It’s to be expected that there will be elements people like and ones they don’t. I’m glad you enjoyed the journey though! All the samples were made by me. I used a field recorder to get all the chime, bowl, rain, bell and bird sounds. Only stock sample was the thunder. : )

That bass loop and piano part around the middle are interesting!

It seems like you were inspired to do upbeat and simply happy sounding pieces lately. I am not sure if I would personally have done the percussion a bit louder, I might be wrong but I think they might be a bit too soft. I can imagine this as an intro to some kind of adventure or journey in medieval times, if you get what I mean. This is most likely due to the orchestral instruments in the beginning and something in the rhythm.

All in all a nice piece! :)

Getting to learn new software can be difficult so it's cool that you are getting a hang of how Cubase works!

Yo! Yea, definitely been more upbeat lately, but don't you worry, I will have some shoe gaze, ambient hellscape concocted soon enough ha. I can see why you may prefer a louder kit, to be honest, if I did a tiny wider mix and rolled some reverb off it would likely punch through better. I like the imagery you have. I do try to create atmosphere, i never know where I land.

Nice relaxed feel, I like the bass line a lot. It's a bit short, but it's a nice beginning groove, I am interested to see how you could continue and expanding on this to let it rock out, if you get what I mean, using a cymbal after that last part and completely rocking away the scene. At least, that is what I would find interesting as a thing to do with this, as I see that you mention this is a thing you are working on.

Like somebody else here said, sounds very clean. The trumpets around 0:40 really give it an additional relaxed feeling.

pitbulljones responds:

Yup.

Lots of work to be done. I'm trying to sort things with a new band. It's hard being all parts to try and not be me innit lmao. I know my b section which will help.
