A long night walk

Featured Replies

Hello.

I think it's months since my last visit, but I felt like I should be here again. I learned a lot from you guys and my music just grown much better since I'm a member of this community.Anyway, It's autumn, and the weather is getting cold and breezy (I actually love that!). I had the chance to meet one of the most special people of my life. I had a long walk with her at the night. In a safe, beautiful and uncrowded part of the city. It took about half an hour to reach a place we could order cars to get back to our homes, but it was one of my most beautiful times.

So, I decided to write a piece. I plugged my keyboard and started to playing with the chords and melodies coming to my mind. I could organize them to a piece. I recorded some EBow guitars (you can hear them as pads/soft orchestral sounds) and put them in the mix. I loved the result. I sent the track to her and she said that she likes it, and this is why I make the piece public. Hope you enjoy the music. And, I'm glad to hear your kind opinions about my piece.

This sounds great in the context you described. It does have a hint of melancholy.

It sounds preety nice. 

All I would argue is that looping your ideas makes up for a quite repetitive end-song. That's not necessarily a problem, but is something to be considered.

Many times when one loops an idea from beginig to end, I feel like the piece becomes redundant, as the themes/harmonies/motif/etc. have the potential of going somewhere else, but the dont. At the end of every loop, you have the option of altering a few details in the piece that can make a big dierence. Also, it's important not to alter them randomly, as you can plan and cadence them to achieve greater effects on the long run.

I hope it was of any help,

Cheers!

Yes I agree. The effect you get is that of nostalgia. I don't inow exactly why, perhaps the combination of sounds, the soft pad plus the punchy piano.... But it's an idea of 4 chords... The pattern in 00:45 is a bit sharp.
