    Bit messy, too long, not a great vocal, but at least I finally, fiiinally got something done...
    I think it comes across better with the volume up. Hides a multitude of sins

    an interesting combination of such music and vocals
    i was thinking about something like electro-punk while listening
    i dont hear any big sins, as for me all sounds good
    and not too long, the part without vocals in the second half of the track sounds great

  • @crouchie delicious bass sound at the start, and then the lead synth/vocal thing is also really cool.

    The call-and-response vocals are also really good, nice idea that. I always love your vocals, you've got a terrific voice that's a pleasure to listen to.

    I like the minimal musical arrangement, sparse but full of atmosphere nonetheless and some really well-chosen sounds. The only niggle is that the ending is a bit long and meandering, I would maybe have gone for a fade out a little sooner. But it's a great track and good to have you back.

  • @theconnactic what a departure from your usual style! I have to say I really like this particular direction, it's obviously much closer to my taste in music. I love the vibe, the instrumentation and the arrangement, it's a beautiful track.

    The only crit I will make is that it would be good to get your voice to sound a little smoother, that buzzing lead sound behind the vocal doesn't really help in that respect, I would kill that, but also you should consider working on your voice to try and sing more smoothly (maybe more quietly would help) just to give a more mellow vibe that would suit this kind of sound better. Vocal otherwise is good, and in tune!

    But otherwise it's really great, love the electric piano and the guitar, really lovely sounds.

    And always good to be back, you do a great job here. V kind feedback. Totally take ur point about the last segment. I kind of broke it a bit by modulating the arps with a filter sweep so they lost their impact, and didn’t build on the detuned lead enough. Just lacks oomph, but we live and learn. Excellent tutorial on Pro L2 btw, u should do more of those. Cheers

    My entry for the month, lyrics in the spoiler:

    Out on the frontier
    You're Floating through the stratosphere
    Right here on the edge
    You're Dangling on the ledge

    Scanning the unknown
    You're Out here on your own
    Where the air is thin
    Where no-one’s ever been

    Living on the edge
    Between life and the mystery
    Right here on the edge
    Of nothing or of history

    Walking down the hall
    Are you two or ten feet tall?
    Who is it you see?
    Who have you got for company?

    Do they wish you well?
    And can you even tell?
    Up here on the peak
    It's not their praise you seek

    Living on the edge
    Between life and the mystery
    Right here on the edge
    Of nothing or of history

    Hey buddy, lots to love here, in fact my only nit is that I wanted more than two choruses, they are the best bit and I would like at least another one in there, or a double chorus at the end perhaps...

    Very nice singing and production. Good, Interesting lyrics. That bass line is awesome...very Sade if I might say! Haha! Not sure how you’ll take that, but her music takes me away from everything and so does your song sooo :p

    Great to have you back mate. :)

    Congrats on getting something finished! We all know what a slog that can be sometimes.
    I always enjoy your tracks mate, they always sound very clean and tidy to me. (despite what you may think) I especially enjoyed the musicy bit towards the end with the subtle bvs. You never overdo anything musically which is great.

    Keep them coming man. :)

    Thanks! Nothing wrong with a bit of Sade, although she wasn't foremost in my mind when I wrote this. She doesn't really strike me as someone who is out there on the edge :o (Maybe I've misjudged her... I was in fact thinking of Jim Morrison when I wrote those words, a death-obsessed alcoholic etc.).

  • Hi guys,

    I’m very excited about this one. It’s a collaboration with a friend of mine from a songwriting forum. He’s known as Jambrains. I wrote the melody,lyrics and he did all the music/production. It’s the first of hopefully many collabs together.

    All thoughts are very welcome please. B) :)

    Was that shades of Tom Petty I was hearing? Nicely done -- for my part the melody is what I usually follow, and this song captured my attention.


  • My first post here. Nothing vocal, but I like this one a lot!

    Many thanks, you’re v kind. It’s got a lot of bits I’d change, but u just have to get them done after a while eh? Will give ur tune a few listens as soon as I get a bit of time

  • @DBecker Nice instrumental with a lovely eastern flavour to it, I like the main melody that runs through after the intro. The track is probably a tad too long though, so if I had been assigned by the label as your producer on this one I would suggest either trimming it down to 3 minutes or adding in additional changes to keep the listener's interest going. The main theme is great though, nice synth sound and an interesting lead to listen to.

    Thank you @richardyot for your comments. The intro is a bit longer than I originally sought, and the song could have easily ended at the 3:30 mark, but I was just having so much fun... :)

    My entry for this month: Craving -

    Hello mate, well, what’s not to love? It’s a great chilled out track that doesn’t try to do more than it should. Nice vocal sample? Adds a nice layer to everything else. (I’ve never heard a vocal in any of your stuff, so it was a nice surprise :) )

    So yeah, I’m afraid I have nothing useful to say other than great job man. B)

    Hey folks. Creating sounds with IOS has opened a new range of exploration for me -- from an avid 70's rocker playing a mean radio dial, to a hippy percussionist at Rainbow Gatherings around the country, to using synths in ways I've never gone before. My selection for the month of April is something I called Kite Flying.

    Hello mate, well I think you came up with the perfect title, cos the tracks enjoyable, but kinda just hovers around in the same spot.....it’s a nice spot though. :)

    I really enjoyed this one.

    The atmospheric feeling with the delay effects was really interesting. The bass line climbing around the pentatonics suits it so well. Gave it a moody Colin Greenwood vibe.

    Cool track man.

    Thanks - much appreciated :)

    @LostBoy85 Another slick production, well put together and well produced track, very pro sounding in every department. A bit big and brash sounding for my taste, but I like a more subtle and laid-back sound and we all know you're a huge fan of the eighties, and this could easily be a Bryan Adams track :)

    Arrangement is very well crafted, great peaks and troughs (really well thought out drums to drive it all along), emotional build, and the vocal melodies are very varied and very good, and great instrumentation behind it all. Especially like the percussive bell sounds in the chorus.

    Did I mention it's BIG sounding?

  • I wasn't really expecting to do a song this month, but here we are. Maybe by putting it up here I can stop effing with it and finish my taxes. This started as an odd little experiment in the YouCompose app that I couldn't stop listening to for some reason. Then the boy and I were reading comic books and I had an epiphany. Super weird, but what else is new.

    I shall make all the universe wild and primitive!
    We must return to primitive living!
    We must end democracy and civilization forever!
    Civilization is a failure!

    We're out to get the money
    In all these New York banks
    And the jewels in every mansion
    We'll take over all the wealth in the city

    If we carry out our plans carefully
    It'll be a cinch!
    First, we'll terrorize the city
    When the cops are all out of the picture, we'll take over!

    I shall destroy all the civilized planets!
    My secret ray is working perfectly!
    When everybody has dissappearred into space
    We'll have the whole Earth, and all of its wealth, to ourselves!

  • Awesome, Aaron! Really liked this one!

  • Is it ok to post s track made with a mixture of iOS and hardware ?

    Absolutely fine, if you check the first post the rules are there:

    And finally, iOS is not a requirement for posting here. If you've recorded your song using nothing but a ukulele and a Fostex 4 track, that's fine.

    The main thing we expect is for you to engage with other people's submissions. Posting a track here and not commenting on the other contributions is likely to mean your song will be ignored.

    :)

  • I often browse sotm but don't usually comment as I don't post my own tracks. The track I'll be posting is about 70/30 iOS /hardware

    I'll be honest, after reading the intro about 70s rockers and hippy percusion i very nearly skipped this one ... certainly not what I was expecting especially the beat which helps it
    Move along nicely but the ending is rather abrupt ,!? Production sounds overly compressed to my ears ?

    Very nice matey. At the beginning it sounded like the beginning of the old Sega/Nintendo "Splatterhouse" games. Very inventive. Nice one. ;)
