August 17, 200718 yr Here is another new age piece for my upcoming CD release (hopefully) called Boundless. There is a synthesized voice, saying "Dreams of the dreamer knows no bounds," which give the song its name. It took my about a week to finish this song, and I haven't done any "polishing" yet... which is why I'm posting it here now, for help. As usual, no major structure... you'll hear me use two themes several times, adding in some steel drums near the end. There are also two "breaks" in the piece with different feels to them. As this song is still in early draft, any comments or guidance will be greatly appreciated. Start Player
August 17, 200718 yr Great melodies and harmonies. Neat effects. You got a lot of talent and it shows!!! You asked for suggestions, so I will give you one. If you got a sound font for a nice big Gong, I see a couple of places where it would fit nicely.
August 23, 200718 yr hey! first off: i'd like to say i like this song quite a bit. Its fresh and has great instrumentation. Secondly, i was wondering whether you are using a synth or a program or something, because the quality is excellent, and i am currently looking for a program to write my music in.. thank you.
August 23, 200718 yr Author Thanks! I use FL Studio 6.0 with Garritan Personal Orchestra as a plugin. It's a good program if you're writing electronica or techno music in, but if you want chamber, piano, orchestral, etc you'll probably want Finale.
August 23, 200718 yr Nice piece. I have to say that I think I like the song's intro better than most of the song though. And also the "bridge" section at about 3:00. Maybe the rest of the song could use more variation and dynamic changes though (do you use the same instruments throughout the majority of the song?).
August 25, 200718 yr Author Mostly the same, yes. The violen typically has the lead, switching off with the flute.
