doctor who (unplugged) by Potatoes 1 year ago

Sounds like an opening theme for the next time the Doctor goes out to the wild west! In the words of my favorite incarnation "FANTASTIC!"

An interesting song with some nice moments in it. I might have used a woodwind of some sort instead of a harp, but that's just a personal choice. The brass shines well and isn't overused, which I have found from experience is easy to do. On the whole, a good piece. Bravo.

You gots rocks in your funk, but that's okay. Tight cover, sounds better to my ears than the original.

You ain't got no monkeys girl, you got a buncha ooo-ranga-tangs! Jazzy little number too. Very catchy.

Not too bad, though the 'fake' intro went on a little too long and it probably shouldn't fade out. Might try a record scratch or something to transition between the fake intro and the real song. The 'real' bit was tight though. Nicely grove to it.

Clean, basic rock track. Good mixing and a crisp sound. All and all a tight arrangement. Bravo.

I can see what you meant. I think what it wants is a strong bass line of some kind. Lots of high register, not enough down low if you know what I mean. Something slap bass, or perhaps a strong synth bass. Other than that, seems pretty good.

Wow. A great uptempo number. Alot of bounce to it, and some clean guitar work. I sometimes forget, playing with virtual instruments that GB is also just a pretty darn good recording studio. Great work.
Evil Caterpillar by MichaelPinc 3 years ago
Well, Critters 2 has a few more constraints to it than totaly random, but it still is pretty impressive what you can generate. You still need to sift through the channels and find the stuff that works, but it's surprisingly good at generating some gems amid the noise. You're correct in saying that it's not as creative, since the foundation was computer generated. Critters files are always far more interesting as an exersize in composition and arrangement. Thanks for the feedback smiley I've got some more songs to breed.

Not too bad. Got a solid grove going on and a pretty decent use of loops. I would have ended with going down to one instrument, bring everything in again and then fade. This way is okay, but it could be stronger. A good piece.

Not bad at all. Your voice is a much less abrasive version of Axl Rose, which isn't a bad thing as far as I'm concerned. He could be really good when he wasn't screaming past his range. Good instrumentation, good recording and pretty darn good lyrics. All and all, a tight performance.

Got a strong Blue Öyster CÜlt feel to it, which is not a bad thing in my world since I'm a long standing fan of BÖC. Got a good grove going on. Definitely rocks. Very cool.

A nice blues piece. I would have liked more harmonica but that's mostly because I play harp.
Alien Invasion by dr_luis_rodriguez 3 years ago

I'm not much into electronica or I would have rated it much higher, but from a production standpoint it's a great piece. Polished, professional and very well mixed. Definitely someone I'd feel safe behind the mixing board.
Byzantine Imperial Ape in Bb by MichaelPinc 3 years ago
I just wish I actually knew what I was doing as far as programming goes since the guys at grain-brain are looking for people to work in the project. It would be like getting a Mad Scientist Home Genetics kit for Christmas, only with music. smiley Thanks for listening Boris.

Sometimes the loops just say "I want to be this kind of song." Who am I to argue with them? smiley Thanks for listening and the feedback Moptzar.

Night Pursuit and Escape by PupDoc 3 years ago

I got more of a 30's/40's movie serial feel from it, like an Indiana Jones type jungle chase, but it definitely has a chase vibe. Definitely alot of fun.
The Fibonacci Waltz by tfroberg 3 years ago

A fun application of concept. Also goes to show that the human ear and mind are most comfortable with patterns and harmony, all manifest in this waltz. A good choiec of instrumentation too, since as you said, some of the electronic instruments just don't sound right. The ones you picked sounded very natural. I'd love to hear this played by human musicians. The added warmth of real instruments would make this a joy to hear. Glad I got the chance to listen to it.
