[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]

    Thank you Adrian for the getting the voting up.

    Loved the entries. Great work! :goodtimes:
      Good Stuff

      Stud - you almost get a Twin Peaks- Chris Isaak thing going which is definately eerie!
        Tokyo - Brilliant, the piano bits really make it sound eerie.

          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!
              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

                  Cool surprise Norio.
                    Well done guys. KEEPING THE FAITH!

                    Hasie, Nice one, actually really like progression on this, especially the first half. Subtle and creepy!

                    TokyoPOP: Spooky master class, wish I could fault you! ?

                          There are some albums I've been eyeballin' on Takealot. HAIM's Days Are Gone in particular. Amazing album by three sisters. Give it a listen if you haven't already.

                            Whoop whoop! Congrats ?

                                    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?
