Hello there! After a brief struggle with RB (never had much luck with it) and thanks to a couple of fellow forumers I was able to get it done. I made up this mysterious in a kind of pentatonic scale soundtrack and wanted to post it before Halloween but I couldn't. So here is [Link no longer valid]
Don't get scared it's all an illusion.

This totally fits in with Halloween! Doesn't matter if it's a few days later. It's really good!

Mike,
I can totally see this playing in Halloween theme park or house of horrors.
Fun stuff! (a bit different from your other work).

P.S. It would be interesting for PG to have a competition of holiday or event theme songs. Halloween most definitely be the shinning star smile

Best regards,
Misha.

Very creative piece Mike. Some very cool sounds. Could vary easily fit into a movie sound track

HI Mike,

Cool song! As someone already mentioned - not your usual but it sure is good! I can see this in a commercial venture of some sort for Halloween. I like it a whole bunch! best to you.

Wow - really well done smile Caught me off guard for sure, given what I'm used to hearing from you - but it definitely captured the Halloween spirit. Very creative, and a very engaging tune to listen to.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Misha, Scott,Alan and Deryk. Thanks for the time to listen and the comments. I know that my usual stuff is Jazz instrumentals, however I always felt attracted by ambient and/or cinematic kind of production, so that's what I actually work first before my messing with BIB back in 2007. For that reason I cannot post some of them in here, they were created using other DAWS not related to any PGMusic product. I might produce some more using BIB of RB. Will see.

Mike B.

The horror! The horror! wink

And quite a contrast to the cheerful instrumental the followed.

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Hi Mike,

Very atmospheric indeed!!! The mostly pentatonic scale does the job real well.

What synth did you use? You've got some great sounds there.

Regards,
Noel

Thanks David,Tano and Noel for listening. Noel, I mostly used Kontakt 5 and the bells are from East West Silver edition. The horror sounds are from a library for Kontakt named Arcane, pretty good.

Wow!, that is very atmospheric and cinematic. One would think there's commercial appeal here!

Very cool listen...
