Nice! I like it when I hear an Electribe branching out beyond club scene beat pulses. Used smartly, an Electribe can be fit into any kind of music.
Perhaps there will one day be "Sonatas for Unaccompanied Electribe"

Update!

Go there for the final product (as of now*) for our song.
I'm sure it won't appeal to a lot of people, but the people that are into this style of music think it's pretty dang awesome.
Have a great weekend everybody and let me know what you think!
Thanks

Not bad there man , your programming is pretty good but the transition between intro and band sound needs a little bit of work to sound right .
keep going tho

here is an idea
if you motion sequence the cutoff you can really make the synth part evolve into the song
right now it is kind of flat sounding (unchanging) and you can bring it out and make it sing with a little bit of motion sequencing
also if you have the guitars maybe feedback over the last little bit of the phrase it will be a smoother transition in the final mix
you could even just cut the emx drums out and leave the synth part playing into the song to give it a little more cohesion
i used to be in a band of a similar style but we didnt use electronics
good job making it to cornerstone with the new voting system

Thanks a lot, Zalo!
We actually got asked to play a couple stages and generators at Cornerstone this year. We didn't have to get voted on, thank God.
As for the song, it's just a rough draft right now. We recorded it all ourselves. We're going to go get our songs professionally recorded after Cornerstone, in late july.
When we play the song live, we do have the guitars feeding back and it sounds better than jumping so abruptant from the intro to the song itself.
What do you mean by motion sequence the cutoff? have the cutoff all the way to the left and gradually push it to the right? I'm still pretty new to the electribe and I'm super fortunate that there is this forum where I can get the help I need. Thanks

I agree, I challenge someone to create orchestral on electribe

lets hear them gongs and strings.

read up on motion sequencing and modulation in the manual
and then mess with knobs and settings and just play around
you might come up with something that grows and sounds even better
