NRKulus Posted January 10, 2021 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
PeterthePapercomPoser Posted January 10, 2021 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
