Title: Music: Sunstorm
Post by: blackhole on July 12, 2009, 10:10:34 pm

Finished a while ago, but I might as well post it. I'm getting sick and tired of my techno style, but this is a very well designed and produced piece even if it lacks inspiration, so I'm sort of half proud of it. Maybe. :p

Had a listen - probably the second best out of Renascent behind "Now."  :yes:

I think you should try something different now - you've got a lot of "techno" stuff now that seems to lack some of the "emotional qualities" that some songs in your previous albums had. Not that they're bad, I just like emotional songs of a particular type... :tongue:

By the way, do you ever use modified versions of some of the original Sytrus pre-sets in FL? Because I got surprised and slightly excited when I heard a few that sounded very similar... I'm still trying to decide whether to start my synths from scratch or use some modified ones...

edit: oops, spelling mistake... :nervous:

That's why I said I was sick of my techno style - its all purdy sounding but its got no feeling. Unfortunately changing genres is proving very difficult.

Everything was done from scratch.

It's a pity you abandoned the type, as you seem to have about perfected it. :P

Nah I think Eric has got the right idea. He hit it spot on and thus now he needs time to properly express himself as an artist does. Something techno is either impossible or very very very difficult to do!
