TheGreek Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 Voted - expected more fretless tracks for some reason... Good work fellas... Keep up the good work. Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 Voted. I did like Mornat's, even though I thought the choirs at the end were a little ott for this picture Another good one to fit the picture from Mr. Shot, again. Quote
TorturedSaints Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 Voted. Great photo and great compositions. Quote
Mornats Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 [quote name='MoonBassAlpha' timestamp='1498314651' post='3323815'] Voted. I did like Mornat's, even though I thought the choirs at the end were a little ott for this picture Another good one to fit the picture from Mr. Shot, again. [/quote] I agree with you about the choirs but you know, new library and all that Quote
lurksalot Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 well boys you all certainly know how to put some incredible stuff together , truly brilliant , voted but had to go through twice Quote
Dad3353 Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 Duly listened to (more than once for several...), and tough choice made, so voted. All with a high very standard of execution and production; just one or two that I couldn't really get on with (I'm definitively not a lover of the 'big beat'..! ), so a difficult decision, as usual. However, the Deed is Done. Well done to all, and thanks for the fine picture to work from. Quote
lowdown Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 (edited) My (late) entry didn't get put up... (I think Skol was a bit busy - But no worries, my own fault for being late). Voted. Well done folks, some decent stuff up there. Edited June 26, 2017 by lowdown Quote
Dad3353 Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 [quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1498460762' post='3324683'] My (late) entry didn't get put up... [/quote] Darned shame, as it's excellent; highly evocative, and a fine fit for the theme. Have a 'virtual vote' from me, as small recompense, and be a bit more prompt next time, eh..? Quote
Skol303 Posted June 26, 2017 Author Posted June 26, 2017 [b]Late entry by lowdown now added![/b] Quote
MoonBassAlpha Posted June 26, 2017 Posted June 26, 2017 I've changed my vote to reflect the quality of the late entry. There's some good orchestration and phrasing going on there, and gets the mood of the picture well, for me. Quote
Dad3353 Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Any more late entries coming down the pipeline..? No, just sayin', as with the passing of time, my already modest share of the votes is shrinking..! At this rate, I'll be owing votes from [i]last [/i]month..! Yes, I know; if my contributions could be of a higher quality I'd keep a few more votes; don't rub it in, chaps. I'm painfully aware, but the standard of the other entries mounts from month to month, and I just can't keep up (but I'm trying; very trying... ). Edited June 27, 2017 by Dad3353 Quote
Chiliwailer Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 [quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1498581456' post='3325686'] Yes, I know; if my contributions could be of a higher quality I'd keep a few more votes; don't rub it in, chaps. I'm painfully aware, but the standard of the other entries mounts from month to month, and I just can't keep up (but I'm trying; very trying... ). [/quote] There has been some great quality for sure, but what I love about this is that some people take it very seriously and others just have fun. I've only done the past 3 months and each have had different levels of quality / care and attention, it's just the taking part that's fun for me. I'll never be able to take making music on my own seriously (talent and desire that is). Anyway, I always look forward to your entries as they have a genuine honesty about them Quote
lurksalot Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 I seriously try to have fun The trouble I have is the more I try to get my output sounding like a true pro arrangement , the more I realise I know so little on how to do it , so I have the craic and publish Quote
Dad3353 Posted June 27, 2017 Posted June 27, 2017 [quote name='lurksalot' timestamp='1498587496' post='3325732']...I have the craic and publish [/quote] To the benefit of us all..! Quote
