Title: "Let Us Prey"
Post by: redmistpete on August 31, 2010, 03:08:59 PM
OK, been away from the scene for a while. Kinda getting my head around fruity loops. It's something I've looked at for a while but could never quite get to grips with it after coming from ""OctaMED" and then "Music".

Here's my first track which is starting to come along as I've been figuring out how to use "FL". It's an unfinished work in progress inspired by the film "Johnny Got His Gun".....not seen it?

"Watch it, it may change your life."


I've got some ideas for the remainder of the track, should be interesting to see if I can manage to drag it from my mind and into the netbook ;)

Also any quick tips for FL9 would be handy - still only discovered the basics, will be watching some YouTube tutorials.

Nice acid!!!!!!!!!
Nice harp, very dreamy and well done, especially with those dreamy pads!
I do NOT like that spooky, disturbing voice sample at the start! Scares me :( (but that is me just being a wimp)
Nice drum rhythm, however they feel a bit squashed beneath the bass which seems a bit "overdriven" to me.
Otherwise FUCKING AWESOME for a fruityloops first timer!

Thanks. lol, the voice is a bit scary - even more so in the film. Yeah, I plan to chop the beat a bit and fatten it up - it just a loop at the minute that I'm using as a place-holder. I like it but I want to build it up as the song progresses and then strip it back just before it drops into the pads. I've got some scary singing for the end ;)
