NRKulus Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 It's been a strange year, hasn't it? What with the pandemic, nobody was singing my choral music, so I got some friends together online and organized my own performance! (Plus I had always wanted to write a Halloween choir piece, but choir directors were always like "nah, we'd rather spend October rehearsing Christmas music.") I wrote this fairly straightforward piece as sort of a proof of concept, and originally released it back in October. Honestly, I probably spent as much time (or more) mixing the audio as I did writing the music. Turns out it's difficult to get 17 singers--all singing with different recording equipment in different acoustics different distances away from the mic--to sound like they're all in the same room! So I'm especially curious if anyone has feedback or tips on the mix. PDF StrangeIsTheNight(watermark) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterthePapercomPoser Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Wow this is quite rich harmonically! You create an otherworldly atmosphere here with the polychords and glissandi you employ. I feel like I've been transported to this Carcosa you mention. It doesn't creep me out though - just a mysterious feeling. I think this recording is quite good despite the difficulties you mentioned. Maybe someone with more experience with mixing might find more to criticize on that front but I enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
