The Wastes (music track)


Distorted

Recommended Posts

So the other day, I suddenly realised, "Hey, I could use the sound files from one of the old mini CDs for something!" 

 

A day or two after ripping them from the disc, I had this:

Would love to hear your opinions on this! Thanks!

This sounds really cool! It sounds like it could have actually been a song used in MNOG or something like that. The narration really adds a nice touch.

I do have one critique, though: at about 2:15, there's a 16th note hi hat pattern. It all is kind of just loud, without any variation between notes. Maybe some kind of accent pattern would help that?

Thanks! I did mess around with the positioning and velocity of those hi-hats, but unfortunately didn't do anything to vary the pitch between each hit. I'll definitely lower the volume and vary the pitch around if I ever make a new copy.

It's not the pitch that would change, it's the velocity or volume. It's a very minor thing though, I only heard it on my second listen.

No I know, what I'm saying is I remembered to alter the velocity but I didn't bother doing any pitch-shifting, which I should have done in retrospect. :)
