Welp. I did it. I finished a song.

I FINISHED A SONG HOLY SHIT!

It it terribly long? Nope. Is it cohesive? Ehh. Do I care? Nuh uh.

Thanks Fezuke and everyone else who encouraged me to stick with it.

This is really cool, and i'm glad you finished it!

You've got a good ear for composition, I think

Awesome! I'm also glad you finished it!

This makes me remember those old days when I would make some covers with VRC6. Nah that's not so relevant to the subject, so I have to say that many effects you used practically stunned me. Also, I don't quite remember where you left the song last time, but now I feel it's like really fresh, and it sounds cool. I think I had never seen someone to alternate between Saw and Saw+Tri basses. Sure gives a neat feeling.

Well, that's all for now. This is a fair good track!

This... just... holy flubbing crap. This sounds so AWESOME! And you made it! And it's finished! And that's not a contradiction! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!

EDIT: upcoming stereo on soundcloud link maybe?

Me too! Thanks.

Heh, it only takes me a billion revisions to get it right.

[quote=Mr_Master]Awesome! I'm also glad you finished it![/quote]
Woo ya, it feels good to use those C00s.

[quote=Mr_Master]I have to say that many effects you used practically stunned me.[/quote]
Great, it was fun to try the technique of cutting in a bunch of weird and varied sounds to keep things interesting. I feel that frame 10 is one of my favorites in that regard.

That's fair.

I KNOW RIGHT? I don't know who I am anymore! (and thanks!)

[quote=CheeseGuy99]EDIT: upcoming stereo on soundcloud link maybe?[/quote]
I've never done a stereo mix before. Sounds like a fun challenge though. Any tips?

Very cool stuff man, I love your use of noise in this piece, very glitchy.
It feels a little empty in a few spots, but that is just my personal preference, for example, frame 18-1C, it feels like it is unpolished there.

But overall this is a very cool piece, congratulations on finishing it

Thanks. It makes me want to make something REALLY glitchy and just go nuts.

I hear you, and I know it's generally good to maximize the use of each channel but tend to like music that has a lot of dynamic contrast (like silence before a big drop) so I think sparse sections are perfectly justified if they compliment the more dense parts.

With that said, those frames were the last things I wrote and I was itching to call it done so there may have been more I could have added to keep it from feeling unfinished. I thought about harmonies but it didn't feel right for the end of the song.

You did it! I'm really happy we helped you get motivated enough to complete it. This is great for you, and us.

You were one of those do0ds I kept wondering why you refused to complete anything, when you clearly got the skills to do so. I always love your sound design and general feel of your tracks.

Yay!
