Title: Shima.33 - The Music Of FOTEPX.
Post by: FOTEPX on June 24, 2012, 09:53:40 AM
As you all probably know, I make music's. And, after a bit of a while, I've finally released my first EP! Get it below:

Oh. You can't afford the £2 price? How about getting it for 20p? Oh, you're interested? Well then, put in the code 'ShadowsEP' when you're at the checkout, and you'll get it for near-free! Plus, listening to it on the site is free, so ain't that swell!

Well, catch ya later!

End of Work is pretty catchy. I think you have to work on your snares, I don't know they bother me.. is it an 808? I like it at 1:29ish (I think you low passed it?)

Thanks for the reply, Duck. Yeah, End Of Work is a pretty chill track, the snares are FL Standard + RJD2 2001 Standard, so maybe the two ain't blending right, and that's what's putting you off. Rest assured, my newer works are a bit more quality-checked.

You listen to RJD2? I just find my snares from random youtube videos of people practicing drums lol.
The snare in this song I made is my ideal snare.

I layered the like 3 different ones + at different pitches.
Also by boosting the 2K range you can get a clap sounding snare sort of, its pretty cool.

Seems like a pretty snazzy deal, as far as snares go. My ideal snare is FL Standard + Revolution909 + Phoenix01.

And yeah, I listen to RJD2. Deadringer was, and still is, one of my favourite albums of all time. It's a shame that he had to drop the ball with Since We Last Spoke and The Third Hand. The Collosus... Ehh... I don't really like it as much as I should.

Would be good if you weren't throwing the cliche house samples over everything.

Well, what would you call non-cliche?

I dunno, but not those samples.  You hear them in just about every house/dubstep song nowadays.

Then don't use those samples.

This is the only sample you will ever have to use - ever. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amen_break)

That's stupid.....


Producing electronic music takes just as much effort and skill as playing an instrument does.

 Sure, you could just throw a couple cliche drum beat samples together and call it a song, but nobody does that.
