Layne Posted November 5, 2023 Posted November 5, 2023 Good afternoon, fellow people of the forum! Today I bring a song I actually made over the past hour and a half. I have titled it "The Dark Lord Dances". In this I really tried to keep things going where normally I incorporate a slower section. While this has that, it doesn't do my typical style of slow down and the song keeps moving forward towards it's conclusion. This was made in FL Studio using BBSCO Discover and Intimate Strings. So, all sounds are free except for some strings as Intimate Strings is one of their paid-for VSTs. Can't wait to hear your thoughts and hope you enjoy the listen! 2 Quote
Bjarke Posted November 6, 2023 Posted November 6, 2023 Sounds pretty good and thanks for your comment on my composition before 🙂 If I were to give some feedback I think more rythmic varity could maybe improve the piece. Your continuity seems really good which is important but i feel like after some time the rythm becomes too predictable. My guess is to get the listner excited throughout it would add some extra with more varity in the rythm. Maybe a variation on the rythm and more modulation? I think you had a really intersting harmonic language in the piece. Kind regards. Bjarke. 1 Quote

I definitely plan to further build and work on this piece, as I did it only about an hour and a half to get it to this point. I agree and thing that varying it a bit more and changing it up would keep it interesting. Quote
PeterthePapercomPoser Posted November 12, 2023 Posted November 12, 2023 A great quality rendition! I can imagine this as background to some kind of boss battle. I think the gradual adding of instruments and the rising contour of the progression (before returning again to the start of the progression) isn't enough to build the intensity of the music. Maybe you could have included an accelerando or some kind of phrase to break the even numbered phrase lengths. Those are my thoughts. Thanks for sharing! Peter Quote

I absolutely see what you're saying. I think that could help it too! Hope you enjoyed the piece! 1 Quote
