ambient Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 [color=#333333]Something I'm working on for my degree course. It has to include a wind instrument, either brass or woodwind. I'm using an oboe sample, but I've enlisted the help of a lady oboe player who's very generously donated her time to replace the samples with a real oboe, in return I've said she can use the music on her website.[/color] [color=#333333]Check it out and please let me know what you think.[/color] [url="https://soundcloud.com/ambient-bassist/happier-now"][color=#333333]https://soundcloud.com/ambient-bassist/happier-now[/color][/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) Quite like that mate, very atmospheric reminds me of something by Jesper Kyd. Maybe this could provide a little inspiration for you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcsWMSCBZRM Edited March 24, 2014 by icastle Link fixed.

SpaceChick Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I like it, very moody and atmospheric. Did you decide not to go for a flute then? Having playing Oboe in a previous life, I have to say I think this piece suits the dynamic of an oboe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd still like to use flute too. I emailed your friend and sent her a rough mix of the music, she's probably like me and got loads of work on.

mcarp555 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Very nice. Reminded me a lot of [i]Departure from the Northern Wasteland[/i], an album I used to have by Michael Hoenig. Good production values, although I think I would have dropped the level on the percussion just a tad, as it seemed to dominate the overall aural spectrum. Not a serious flaw, just a personal preference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
