OSAM 2014 - Departures of our lives

Post by Lguelpa »

Hallo Everyone

This is my first submission to OSAM 2014. Just a little bit about myself and please don't judge me on it :lol:

I don't use VST and sequencers so everything is recorded live. I use a KK61, Motif XS61, Moog Modular V2 soft Synth. The song is not perfect as it is still in a very early demo phase but it is the main idea that i want to use. I still need to add some stuff to it to finish it off.

I hope you guys enjoy it and im looking forward to your feedback.

Departure of our lives :shock:

Very atmospheric. Makes me think of an old gothic cathedral with gargoyles. Like you said, theres plenty of room for you to add some nice arps, a lead melody, and more percussive elements in there. Once the composition framework is laid out you can move on to the production side of things, balancing levels and stereo placement etc.

Agree with Charles, very atmospheric - Felt like a journey too. I have a lot to learn with my own songs after hearing all these tracks
