Niiiiice work Freefreddy. I always love hearing other people's musical creations. You have a really nice melodic line running through out the piece. The first few beats actually reminded me of the marimba part I played for the opener of our last field show. You've also created a really cool ostinato effect with that opening running line. This would actually sound really sweet for a mallet arrangement (marimba, vibraphone, and bells would be a sick set up.) I really dig the modulation of the melody that occurs around 1:11. It keeps the piece interesting. How many running lines do you have total in this piece? I think by the end I counted three or four lines having run simultaneously. The only thing I would change, would be the ending of the piece. You have it set up for a nice cadence, but you add the last arpeggio in there, causing it to seem a little unfinished. I would continue the ritard and instead of having the last arpeggio ascend, have it descend so that the E minor chord (it is e minor right?) ends in a lower register. I would suggest playing the first two notes of the final arpeggio, but instead of completing the triad, go from the G to the F#, down to the D, then UP to the E and add the B G E below it. That is just my personal preference though, and I apologize if the above doesn't make much sense. I get carried away sometimes, and I actually had to refrain from using some terms But over all, amazing job man. I'll share some of my stuff with you once I figure out how to get Finale to save the music to sound like something other than piano.
Edit: Or you could do much simplar than my above suggestions, and final E in the arpeggio, but an E either one or two octaves below it to give it a more rich feeling ending, and it also adds some...what's the word...well, it's a stronger resolution. Make it subtle, but it would sound nice in there. |

Hehe, you know, I understood only a half of the technical terms you used in the post above. It's more than 14 years ago since I stopped to play the piano, and since then I forgot almost all terms of music...*sigh*
Anyway, you don't need to know much musical knowledge when creating music in trackers. Rather almost pogramming them . Though without a tuned hearing and a sense of the music you won't be able to produce anything interesting, either. Unis 669 Composer supports up to 8 simultaneous running lines (or channels, like they're called technically there), but I used only 4 of them, 3 for playing the instruments and 1 included just for having a complete "channel-count" (an Amiga MOD uses 4 simultaneous channels). This "song" was only my first try on the composer. The next one will be very different, be sure of that. |

No, I meant it can play up to 4 channels with instruments simultaneosly at once (so you can hear only 4 instruments playing at the same time). And 669 or Unis 669 formats support up to 8 channels at the same time.

Liked it very much! Some of the parts remeinded me of other musical work, can't really determine which ones, but very nice - especially the tempo at the end... Well, don't know exactly how to put it... But it did not sound melancholically to me!

Well, I guess it's more simply to recreate already existing music piece instead to produce one made completely yourself...
I'm working on a new music from myself, but I jumped over to another idea right now and recreated a music by Jean Michel Jarre by using some own instruments and some taken off the original music. Here's what came out. Chronologie Part 4, recreated by me in Scream Tracker 3 I'm sorry that I didn't post something made completely anew by me, it's just these dreams I have last time... Anyway, next time I'll post a song completely made by me, promised. :bye: |

Niiiiice! k:
I love how your music flows, even if you did use an existing track for inspiration. And it's hard to manipulate music that way, I personally think it's easier to deal with making it up myself, but that may be because I can't read music, hehe. Can't wait to hear what you come up with on your own |

Here it is. Affected partially by the current nightmares and by the grey days here. I know it's not that impressive. I'm not that good in making music, I guess. Still, I hope you'll like it, but beware, it's 9MB large (MP3)!
