It's fine my end, David.
Yes his attack and phrasing is indeed great. There's some unique tonality there too and I don't what it is.
I'm sure Harry would be able to enlighten me further. I'm sure it's about how he twiddles his knobs.

But you like Dream Theater so our standards of composing vs noodling may be a little different. ;-) |
Yeah, that's understandable. I think those first few songs, particularly ones like Lost Wanderings, take definitely more than a few listens to catch any sort of compositional structure (that one took me the longest of any song on there, I think, or is at least up there). Nonetheless, they accomplish what I wanted them to---they're much more reliant on mood than melody or any initially recognizable form of composition. I did spend nearly two and a half years on and off on this album though, so there's something there. ![Smile Smile](smileys/smiley1.gif)
Which tone/song? I actually used quite a few, so it depends on the composition, and I also mixed tones throughout the same song.
|
The one that's dominant in the middle to end of Cosmic Entrance (and another song too that I don't remember). I just think it would be funny if they had the same name, although I guess it wouldn't be surprising if you're using a Yamaha.
Also, you really should just put a Megaupload or Rapidshare link to it on your site. |
I am using a Yahama, so they might be the same tone, haha. My model number is DGX-500. What's the point in using Megaupload now though when only one person is downloading it at a time? It should go at about 80 KB/s now.

well I've been twiddling my knobs for years and I don't sound like that, maybe if I were English my knob-twiddling would be more appreciated

I'm feeling pretty nice.
It's just kinda lame cause I was thinking about going to a party to see one of my friends tonight before she leaves for a year in Europe but I just realised that was yesterday.
Let's hope she isn't pissed off at me.

Oh, that sucks. Good luck with that. Glad to hear you're doing well besides that though.

80 is still slow. :P
I have a digital piano that has been discontinued so we got it half off. I don't even know what the model is.
