oops, I just puked on my keyboard &mdash 01/23/06 - 05:45:54 AM
yep, it got pretty trippy, good prod overall and psych abstract for sure. would have loved to hear a massive drum part at some stage of your track though or maybe more keyboard sounds to build up an even more psychedelic background. this could be a very solid track then!

This can't be good for my migraine... &mdash 01/23/06 - 07:53:27 AM
This makes 'freaky' look normal.

Although, there wasn't exactly a lot going on in this - not enough,
considering how long it was, anyway.
I would've, too, wanted to hear some dynamic change in this with some
drums and more power, something to stir things up a bit.

Nice production, though - You really got away with abusing that panning
effect; it sounded pretty cool.

Homina homina homina &mdash 01/23/06 - 03:52:47 PM
A lot of interesting ideas here just waiting (perhaps DYING?) to be further
exploited in something a little more structured. If you could come up
with a stationary drum beat and driving bass riff and then have these
effects panning around them you'd really be on to something. But I
suggest you make the effects a little more melodic/thematic. Right now
what you have is a treasure drove of potential Psychedelic Guitar loops
for GB users!

A interesting experiment &mdash 01/23/06 - 05:30:23 PM
You got some pretty wild effects going on there. Can you actually pan
in GarageBand or did you use multiple tracks?

I didn't have the patience to listen to it all the way through. I fast
fowarded it to see if it was heading in any direction, but it seem to be
just doing the same effects for the duration. 9 minutes seems like a bit
much.

I really liked the sounds you got and if you incorporated some sort of
change or contrast, it could be a really interesting song.

A interesting experiment indeed &mdash 01/24/06 - 05:34:25 AM
I actually used a Leslie Rotor Audio Unit that I found on the internet. Garageband has many 3rd party add ons that are actually FREE!!! How great is that?

Will re-record soon &mdash 03/15/06 - 05:13:31 AM
This was PURELY experimental and allowed me to get
the feel for psychedelic form with ambient textures. I would eventually like to make this into a more organized but still trippy track. My eventual aim for this song is to use these textures in another trippy song that vaguely resembles
"Sound Chaser" by Yes (without the lyrics). This was only a quick experiment but it taught me a lot about using panning and reverb to create a unique atmosphere that separates this song from that of many other artists.
