    Excited to see who wins, this is good competition even with the small number of participants.

    This is such an amazing effort by every single one who created this. I feel extremely proud to be involved in such an amazing work, and represented by such great staff. This is truly amazing, I can't stress on that enough. Thank you!

    Thank you, I very much appreciated your reply. I'll definitely try out other sounds, I like to try multiple styles, for one doesn't know what he's best at by just guessing.

    I guess that summarized lots of what I needed to say; I'm horribly bad at music terminology, thanks!

    Another pure D.A.W. composition, this time with a little more to it, being the longest composition I've created to date. As always, my music feels unrelated, but they still fit each other some way even if the theme changes midway, and this one truly has a theme twist that I'm very humbly satisfied with. If you think about it, it's like a tale of a wanderer who lost his way, and describes some of his adventures and/or experience(s) along the way. Such experiences would be excitement mixed with fear, as in the excitement to explore accompanied with the awareness of whatever could go wrong. Then true adventuring as he goes through his way, learning and adapting to his surroundings. Followed by challenges and obstacles that come his way, and how he fights through, using all his previously gained experience, then roaring through his way. Then comes the emptiness or the disappointment (could be pictured as betrayal of an ally), as it amplifies into anger mixed with regrets and sadness, and later.. vengeance & determination. That's how I like music really, when it tells a story just by the music itself, lyrics are not necessary, but this leads to what happens in my tracks like the feeling of detached unrelated parts, and my goal in this musical journey of mine is to accomplish the mastery of such storytelling through music without having gone too much out of the general theme in such a quick time. I hope you enjoy it!

    Felt a tempo mismatch between instruments on first listen between the percussion and the other instruments in the beginning. Also, percussion is a bit too loud. However it's very good for the musical output.

    My brain kinda goes to sleep once I'm done with one design/idea, soooo I'm saving for the best

    Thanks for the reminder, I have it in mind, just staying on hold in case I get a better inspiration.

    This happened to me multiple times, however when specific users post. In other words, an attachment can appear perfectly fine while another one in the same post posted by a different user would appear as in the picture. How can this be explained?
  10. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    You're always teaching me something new and incredibly valuable, I'm surely going to keep your reply bookmarked for a while, re-reading it for quite some time. I'm very thankful, and I surely see your perspective, my storytelling surprisingly matches my musicmaking, if it's a novel it'd have lots of chapters, each with little yet concentrated details & scenarios, yet seeming unrelated or happening in different places, to recollect in the end.

    True.. many of my melodies feel 'disjunct', I always create a melody that's too short, and fail to expand it or lengthen it without sounding like I created two different melodies and attached them. The hardest part for me to get past in music it seems. About the repetition, there are small differences but they might not be heard on the first few listens, but yes this composition in particular has much more repetition than others, so I understand your point. Thanks for your opinion! I'll work on fixing such errors in future compositions.
  12. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    Here I come again with another creation, almost 2 months in the making. This is one of my favorite creations up until now, it might sound repetitive, but I believe that would only bother whoever doesn't find it atmospheric or following a certain pattern that they'd like and/or expect. All opinions are appreciated and loved, your feedback is what makes me keep on creating such music, not giving up.. if it were for me I'd have given up long ago haha.

    Magnificent Transition!
  14. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    Does this version represent it accurately? Does it sound good enough? I don't know how the alto saxophone sounds incredibly different, but I assume the marimba(s) at least sound good enough. Still struggling with uploading issues..
  15. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    I loved the slower tempo part, it's awesome! I encounter a problem now though, my plan was to merge everything together not in their audio file state, but rather as .midi files (notes), then assign instruments to them. Unfortunately I don't have matching VSTi, I'll try to find something that fits though.
  16. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    @Maarten Bauer can do some magic and set it up, the factor lies in the transition though. It will be nothing short of awesome however, the sudden change will be shocking as well as mesmerizing.
  17. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    Nice, I hope it generates new ideas and melodies for you, it always takes that one unusual track to expand one's imagination in composition.
  18. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    I prefer them, since I'll most probably have the instruments' base, so I'll be mixing them all together. Although, I'd prefer if each midi track was labelled with what instrument it's to be played with. If it's the same order as in your quote, it'd sound like the attachment in very basic instrument sounds. Does it represent what you created? I'd be surprised if it isn't, because I like it haha Now that I've heard your part, I might even adapt my own part more to fit it. I'll wait until more opinions are posted though. -- For some reason I can't upload it on the forum, so I used another site to upload it. I hope that's not forbidden or anything, http://vocaroo.com/i/s16Fe2YIAiVk
  19. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    Make both answers 'yes' ;)
  20. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    "When the answer is no, you do not have to answer with no in this poll." what's the point of the no vote then? (P.S. I voted yes, just caught my attention)

    Is the radio interactive? i.e. Can I for example choose favorite genres/preferred lengths (ex 5 min. ~ 10 min.)/certain composer/etc..
  22. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    This is such a wonderful thing to have, I was actually wondering if some sort of a toggle-able radio or music player could be embedded on the forums playing all releases on it (select-able genre(s) would be awesome).. Then came ET Lux. Looking forward to try it out. Is there a minimum length for the tracks on the radio?
  23. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    I wish I could add some vocals too. It would help so much, since then I can create verses/chorus/etc.. and have a justified method of repeating music without boring the listeners. Thank you for your feedback, it really helped!
  24. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    Newer version, few edits from the version before, a new minute added + an actual ending. This might be the final version, it's satisfying for me.., even though I feel like I used a similar melody before.. but it's not the same exact one, so that shouldn't matter.. I guess.. I hope you guys like it, I personally loved that ending.
  25. Vadrif D. Zobrist
    Participation has been closed. Now it's time to begin this project. I've created a starting theme, pretty much following the example format I posted (33 seconds instead of 30). The way I see it, this composition would follow a slowing down style, starting with my 100 bpm tempo, followed by @ilv's undetermined tempo (which can be 100 bpm), then @Maarten Bauer's 90 bpm tempo, finalized by a raging/angry climax from @Monarcheon at a rather slower tempo. If you have any notices on the intro, I have no problem in editing it to suit you.
