Dad3353 Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Good afternoon... Here's a track I've just finished... [url="https://soundcloud.com/dad3353/because-i-can"]Because I Can ...[/url] Comments welcome, both positive and (slightly...) less so. Just for fun, of course. Enjoy. Quote
HowieBass Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Listened to it - found it a tad irritating to be honest LOL, mainly because it never offered me a 'pay off' or a resolution - before I looked at your explanation I'd have guessed it had either been created through some structured 'chance' process (rolling a dice then doing something based on the score) or it had reversed note sequences based on motifs you'd created previously. Bet it took you a while to get it all put together anyway! Quote

[/quote] Yes, that's one of the 'downsides' to playing 'open-ended' funky stuff that could (and sometimes does..!) go on all night. It's basically just riffing over E minor; I could pop a 'finishing off' couple of bars, I suppose. It doesn't 'go anywhere', I'll agree. That's what I'll find in next week's lesson, maybe..? Took a while..? Not really; just two evening of nowt on 'telly, as usual. Into the small hours, just the same, on both nights. Many thanks for listening, and doubly so for commenting; much appreciated. Apologies for the irritation suffered. Calamine lotion may help to reduce the urge to scratch..? Quote
Mykesbass Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 Very well constructed - would not have worked out the secret. Sorry, despite it being both clever and artistically sound I didn't enjoy it at all Quote

I'm not blessed with good taste, so can't really judge whether stuff will please or not, although I do try, honest..! Thanks for commenting, of course. Quote
Chiliwailer Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 (edited) Fair play, was a wonderful imitation of poor Jazz - that's a compliment if you know what I mean? Shame the drums weren't as real and live as the other samples. You need to get on the kit Edited April 17, 2017 by Chiliwailer Quote

As for sitting behind the kit: would that I could..! Ops to be programmed for next month, then we'll see, but I'm now quite rusty. Not that that'll show... Thanks for the comments, compliment or not.

Happy Jack Posted April 17, 2017 Posted April 17, 2017 I haven't listened to it, or read the comments about it, but I just wanted to say how wonderful it was. Quote
