   Check out my band's new song
  My friend and I started a new electronica/rock band recently. We have a couple of songs recorded so far and you can listen to them on http://www.purevolume.com/alifeelided. Just finished recording "To the End" today. I'd apprieciate any feedback on it. Thanks.   
  I just finished listening to "To The End." I thought it sounded fairly good, but I felt that it was too repetitive. I didn't think it was very exciting or interesting.   ;  It's not my genre of music, but you've definitely got some talent.   ;Quote:Original post by ArchWizard... I felt that it was too repetitive. I didn't think it was very exciting or interesting.Seconded.   ;  Not bad.  I don't mind repetitive music, but personally i prefer more of an electronic influence for music that repeats often.   ;  I don't mind repetitiveness, and I like what the song wants to sound like. I'm not a music producing pro, so I can't put my finger on exatcly what is missing, but the song feels empty somehow, as if there is a void somewhere in the sound so to speak.   ;  I like the simple and depressing sound of the track, definitely.   ;Quote:Original post by EnselicI don't mind repetitiveness [...] but the song feels empty somehow, as if there is a void somewhere in the sound so to speak.I'd bet what you're missing is variation.I hear some melody voices far away in the background at some parts, maybe you should try to bring them back up front and make the rhytmic pattern fall in the background, and cut out alot of the parts inbetween thats just repeating.   ;  Thanks for all the comments so far. Ratings up for taking the time. It is the kind of music that repeats often (well thats pretty much what that genre is).Quote:Original post by EnselicI'm not a music producing pro, so I can't put my finger on exatcly what is missing, but the song feels empty somehow, as if there is a void somewhere in the sound so to speak.That void could actually be tone. We went for a very hollow and thin sound for most of the songs.   ;  There's a guy on here named Sean Beeson.  I was pointed to him earlier today by one of the members here.  You can check out some of his music @ Sean Beeson.com, and/or Download his music pack from an older thread.  You may be able to pull some inspiration from him.
