I guess there is not much I can do about that. "Patrol" is a very old track
that used a much more limited synth selection and was created when I was still
quite new to this whole music thing. I appreciate your frankness (I just had to
say that! :-) and respect your opinion. I have always created music that I like
personally and have never really worried about whether other people liked it or
not.
> the song "patrol" you title as goa...have you ever heard real high energy
> goa or psytrance...?? this track has not 20-30% the energy and feeling...
Yes, this track is older and was limited. I would like to think that my skills
have improved since then. :-)
As far as genre, it is often difficult to find the right genre for music that
is not created to fit a particular genre. Here is MP3.com's definition of Goa:
- Goa -
"A form of trance that favors a more consistent beat and melody throughout its
entirety. Sounds like: Spicelab"
So, there is no mention of high energy or fast pace, etc. I do agree that I
would not consider "Patrol" to be Goa (nor would I consider Spicelab to be
Goa), but it seemed to somewhat fit the description that mp3.com provided. I
would be very interested to know what genre you would suggest for it. I can
always use help with that.
> the first song on your page was a little bit better...
Well, I'm glad you liked this track more. It is my most recent and uses a
better variety of synths. I have had very good response to this track. It seems
there are plenty of people that really do like it and other tracks I have done.
So, that makes me happy.
> perhaps you should concentrate more on building up the single song,instead of
> producing that much stuff....
I don't have much interest in going back and reworking my older tracks. I am
happy with them. They hopefully show a progression in my music abilities. I am
not embarrassed by them in any way.
Music is a hobby that I truly enjoy and I'm happy to have an oppurtunity to
share with others. I produce about 1 track a month, which keeps me busy since I
have a "real" job and other life interests that take much of my time.
If you are interested in checking out some of my more popular tracks (you only
tried 2 of the 45 available) here are the ones I would suggest:
Oasis
BeyondTheZone
Convoy
Outer Limits (you already tried this one)
Galaxy
> just my opinion....no personal offense or something like that...
None taken! I would like to hear some of your music so that I can get an idea
of what you think music should sound like. Please let us know where your tracks
are posted. I am always interested in hearing other peoples stuff.
