New house track - Briannas Musings
Let us hear you!
Yes, as Rob says, this is certainly fonky shiz! Great swing on the organ - is that you playing it in live?
I second Rob's comments, and would also like the mix to sound a lot chunkier and fuller. Sounds a bit tinny/thin at the moment.
Still, very musical and enjoyable to listen nonetheless!

Wow this should be fun. I remember a great tutorial I saw on youtube where the guy only uses 4 tracks and the tracks were legitimately so good.
EQ/Mixing tips for vocals
General Producer Chat
Hi all
I have posted about this before and got some good feedback, but I thought I'd ask some more questions.
I do a fair bit of vocal recording with my Rode NT1-A microphone, and the results are pretty good, but I often get a nasal/boxy sound without any EQing. I have been playing around with EQ, Soothe, and other things, but I'm not sure I understand the fundamental technique of making it sound better!
Cheers

Hi everyone,
Here's my entry:

And, yes, before anyone says anything, I know it's not Christmas! - but I've always loved this song, and it's a classic 'banger' in my opinion.
I hope I've done the original justice. A fun assignment, thanks
[/quote] Didn't really think about it yesterday but hilarious that you've done a Christmas song in June. Do you live in Australia? Very well made!

This is a bona fide tuneeee! Proper good. Similar enough to the original track to be noticeably derived, but has it's own flair. Especially love the classic piano sounds.

OK, this project got slightly out of hand for a while, I could really have used another week on this, but here we are ...
As I said, my point of reference is Paul VanDyk's 'For An Angel' - one of my all time favourite trance tracks, brilliant simple melody hook very cleverly arranged and produced. Can't help smiling and dancing to this one whenever it comes on. Classic banger.

Original, is in Am and 138bpm, Dm Am C DM progression I believe.
Of course I wanted to do something a bit different, so I've attempted an EDM/Future rave track, taking it down to 128bpm, and slightly changed the chords to DM AM C G DM. I have also changed up the melody to try make it my own.
I'm not sure the original is too much recognisable anymore, so hope I'm not falling outside the scope of the assignment here ...
I've called mine 'What I Love', and here it is:

I hear you Petter - mayeb you needed a bit more finishing time on this but I think it's an admirable effort regardless. Your tunes are always pretty strong so I'm not surprised

Gutted, but the bill paying day job has just go the better of me in the last couple of months so I am no where near finishing my banger. I do want to carry on with it though and will post once completed for some critique, if not prizes! Might take me a while though!!
[/quote] Sorry to hear that Manix, although we're treated to your music regularly in the 'Let Us Hear You' section, so that's all good
