Suspiria by Shred 3 years ago
Thanks herrsolera! If I can remember correctly, the drums were a true pain in the rear when recording this piece smiley

And I can't believe I found someone on here who has heard the piece age! I have not heard anything from that cut, but I will definitely make a point to check it out. Thanks for the recommendation.

The_Battle by Merlin 3 years ago
No way! This is some great prog, and amazing job at utilizing software instruments. My only comment would be the drums lack bottom end and power, but that is only a minor concern. Great work.

How did I not know we had a prog-rocker on the site? Well I do now! And what fine work, really cool.

I don't normally give ratings but dang was this cool. Thoroughly enjoyed all the emotions conveyed. Great work!

Jon
What->If? by AshleyBeanHead 3 years ago
I am such a huge funk fan, and this just killed! Great drum work, and very pro quality. My only suggesting would be to add some wah to those guitars, just a smidget of wah smiley

Regardless, sounds great and I definitely enjoyed!

Jon
The Drones by Lapskin 3 years ago
I agree with feenixx, this is most definitely music...And great work at that! It definitely has a nice ambient feel to it mixed in with the industrial.

Gorgeous composition. The emotions really do flow out of your playing to creating a soothing atmosphere. Thank you for that.

Where I Am by herrsolera 3 years ago
I can't believe I passed over this piece! I thoroughly enjoyed every moment, as I felt like I was hearing something totally new. I was not convinced of the song being metal at the outset, but it proved itself as the song progressed. The vocals worked great through the track, and the brass fit surprisingly well. Great work. Props.

I really dig this! You have some really great grooves goin on, and I could totally hear some sick solo work in this. I too love both jazz funk and metal, but to bring them together is always the hardest part. I'm actually working on one myself at the moment!

Anyways, I love this, awesome job!

Jon
Where are my pills!?!?! by FrozenEntropy 3 years ago
An incredibly interesting sound-scape in this one. Your choice of drums is perfect, especially the almost tribal sounding ones in the beginning. Great job!

Comeback by Shred 3 years ago
Thanks everyone! I'm just glad it was enjoyed!

Haha, I'm not sure I would call it straight forward power rock, but I'll buy it since you enjoyed it smiley
Comeback (Preview) by Shred 3 years ago
Wow! Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome!

I didn't realize quite how short this was when I posted it, but hopefully it served as a tempter.

The final is on its way to completion, and I think it will have a couple turns you guys weren't expecting! I look forward to hearing your comments on the final composition.

Really killer track. Enjoyed. Playing was awesome as always.

Shred
State of Grace by IbanezDude321 4 years ago
I agree, that is an amazing piece they collaborated on. Playing wise, you did an amazing job. I actually preferred your tone a bit more than Petrucci's because there was less gain, which I feel fits for this piece. I do feel you could have had more reverb on yer master though. Regardless, amazing job!

I listened to this once and I had to listen to it again it was so awesome. Great groove!

We must collab again. I still have that Incubus track.

Shred
Thunder Roll by morkjt 4 years ago
Great guitar again, but drum wise I heard some kickin double-bass rather than so much hi-hat. But that's just a minor thing. Good work!
The Wizard by morkjt 4 years ago
Great guitar work. I can't believe I've missed your work on iComp!

Now THIS is good. Amazing production in Garageband. keep it up!
Accretion by Shred 4 years ago
Thanks Macgawd!

The bass definitely needs to be more powerful as it doesn't give enough bottom end to the track. And now that I listen to it, the drums are a bit back in the mix like you said. They could use some bringin up. Next time around!

Thanks for the listen and feedback.

Nice riffin man. I think you shoulda gone with a hi-hat rather than the crash cymbal on the drums though, it gets kinda repetative. Nice tune none-the-less.

As it is, this synth is very empty, however. WIth guitars and drums would sound incredible. Would you let me try to do sumthin with it? All I'd need is the tempo and I could have a go. Let me know.

Ray, I was first to comment this piece, but I just have to say I'm amazed at how incredible this is. It's on my iPod and I listen to this track as much as I would a Dream Theater track. Absolutely stunning. I just wanted to thank you for your incredible work.
