[b]BEGINNER[/b] [b]Hasie "Lurking in the Dark"[/b] [i]http://guitarforum.co.za/gfsacomps/mp3s/Hasie.mp3 This is not up to the standard I would have liked. Did three tracks. It might be horrifyingly bad. 4/4 at 90 bpm in the key if C minor Recording Setup: Yamaha YDP-162 -> Behringer UCA222 -> PC Yamaha APX500ii -> Yamaha THR10 -> PC[/i]

Hasie

Thank you Adrian for the getting the voting up.

Loved the entries. Great work! :goodtimes:

Squonk

Good Stuff

Stud - you almost get a Twin Peaks- Chris Isaak thing going which is definately eerie!

Squonk

Tokyo - Brilliant, the piano bits really make it sound eerie.

V8

Nice work to all the entrants - that wasn't a easy topic?

Hasie : I dig the volume swell-y/synth-y line adding some somberness, though it eventually felt dirge-like towards the end. Perhaps the melody guitar giving it a bit of a rip would been a counterpoint.

Studmissile : Not quite sure of the halloween-ness of this one? Still a fine track...though, should I mention the drums? ?

Tokyo - Great work, instant slasher movie theme tune! Had me thinking "One, two, Freddy is gonna". Were ya not tempted to throw some drums & bass in for the last 20s?

Say no more. I tried and got nothing!

briang-telkomsa-net

Agreed that this wasn't an easy topic (as reflected by the dearth of entries, perhaps)

Stud - playing recording quality = amazing!! (depth, space, placement, clarity.....need I say more)
Tokyo - Cool, "scariness" emphasized in that last interval?
Hasie - "scary" intervals used effectively I thought

NorioDS

I was going to say that given the season, something "beachy" could make for a cool challenge, but perhaps thats better suited for the longer challenge?
