8 Synths

Featured Replies

Something I drew up as an experiment with my computer's synthesizer sounds. Instrumentation is actually 7 synthesizers and an electric bass (kind of synthesized, right?) It also uses a hi-hat, but that's hardly important.Enjoy the Reich-esque music- comments are appreciated!EDIT- sorry, uploaded the wrong version if the score...

8 Synths

Nice minimalist ambient, I liked all, but I think I'd like a clear pretty melody on top of all that, before 3:02, then is very fine, major 3ths making a lot of major 7ths :thumbsup:

at 5:00 it kinda loose its good feeling, at 5:20 comes back (that break was :hmmm: ) then the harmony becomes a little confusing compared with the previous one, 6:47 that melody saves the pieces, the hat beat sounds good, then the end wasn't very good, but I know end a piece like this is very difficult.

There is meant to be no melody from numbers 1-20: it's just a simple layering texture that maintains a constant 16th pulse despite the different rhythms.

The section before 5:00 is a musical substitution, exchanging notes for rests, until nothing is left but the Mario-type synth sounds.

the section at 5:20 alternates between A minor 11 and E minor 11 flat 9.

The end is another substitution, and is meant to drop off like that.

Thanks for the comments!
