xgsjx Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 That's a crackin' idea, naming all the instruments & DAW used. It's good to know what people are using. I think I might follow in your footsteps with that one & hope many others do too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fingers211 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 (edited) Hoooray! This months' effort started as a meandering mix of sounds and keyboardy noise but, (we was gettin' nowhere,so Charlie and me.....) has ended up with some sort of structure ! I really wanted to enter this months' competition, only because it was last May that I entered into this malarkey for the first time... and I've thoroughly enjoyed it !! Anyhow.. We're in..

paul h Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 I think I might get back on the composition challenge horse this month! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikki1984 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Here's my entry for this month. It's a bit of a rush job I'm afraid - I've started a new job this week so I can't spare much time to get this composition as tight as I'd like. It's a shame really cos I think it had some potential. If I have time I will have another go at mixing and mastering it. It seems I had a similar idea to Nigel (nice track btw!) with a dystopian future ending in a rebellion of sorts. https://soundcloud.com/rikki-boyes/fight-the-fight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Here's mine, mixed & mastered. https://soundcloud.com/gxmix/a74 I may go back for a further bit of mixing & mastering if I get time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skol303 Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 Well done guys! A fine crop. I'm lagging behind this month... nothing started as yet but hopefully time to get something down as I love the picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TorturedSaints Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 A late and rushed entry for me. Somewhat of a departure from my normal style, I've definitely gone for the sound-canvas and thrown lots of metaphorical paint at it . . . Using about 6 different sounds from Camel's Alchemy VSTi and some vocal FX from Izotope's Nectar Elements. And a confession - there is no bass guitar on the track. Is that grounds for automatic disqualification? [url="https://soundcloud.com/torturedsaints/dirty-city"]https://soundcloud.com/torturedsaints/dirty-city[/url] Ralph Enjoy!

xgsjx Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I've managed to get mine a little better. I wasn't completely happy with the lead sound, so I've stuck a little dirt on it & added a 2nd instrument & mixed things a little better. https://soundcloud.com/gxmix/a74 Looking forward to listening to everyone's tracks next week.

I've finally made a start - been busy with a new band who can't quite decide if it's funk, jazz or experimental noise it wants to produce. It's a mixture so far! Anyway, y'al'll be pleased to hear mine's got bass, and no brooding future-synths, just a sense of oddness and some Tibetan roaring... Hopefully ready by Monday!

BirchTree Posted May 23, 2016 Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) Here I come skidding with my entry for the month..If I had to defuse bombs for a living i guarantee it would not be done in a timely fashion, (if at all !) [url="https://soundcloud.com/jaedry/static-dystopia-2"]https://soundcloud.c...atic-dystopia-2[/url] I've been thoroughly enjoying everyone's entries this month. I might even have been listening to some on repeat! Looking forward to the voting tomorrow! (and perhaps, a few more pieces done by souls tardier than me ? ) Edited May 25, 2016 by BirchTree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I mention that I'm colorblind? Hoping to finish something tonight. And hopefully start it too This will mean doing so once my lad has fallen asleep, whilst he and I are camping in the garden. I might also tie one hand behind my back for good measure. Have something very Vangelis in my head, so if it ends up sounding 10% of that then I'll be happy. Voting will commence sometime tomorrow.

Skol303 Posted May 24, 2016 Author Share Posted May 24, 2016 Ok I’m done. I’m minding the kids this week (more like zookeeping than parenting) and had a two hour window of opportunity whilst the smaller one was snoozing and the larger one was glued to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles… http://soundcloud.com/skollob/shoulder-of-orion It’s as rough as a badger’s arse, but it’ll do! Mixed using ear buds on my laptop, so I’ve no idea how it really sounds - and in hindsight it was probably a bad idea to include a load of sub-bass. But heh. It’s supposed to be a sort of tribute to Vangelis’ work on Bladerunner (especially the synths during the second half). At least that’s the vibe I was aiming for. That and some John Carpenter thrown in for good measure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
