Lost Soul

A lost soul just wandering around, wasting his life. Sometimes he will hit a high but immediately falls back to wandering and wishing his life away. He never does reach happiness.

BiaB styles:
Main style = Oreg Slow - Slow New Age World-B - deleted the strings and drums
Drum style - -NSE16^2.styl - Nashville Even 16
String Style - Question.styl - Smooth Jazz

Instrumentation
Bass = AmpleBass Upright - effect = compression
Piano - EZKeys - Dream Machine
Strings - Kurt Hunters Diamond Orchestra - Pizzicato
Drums - Presonus GM kit
I played my wind controller using Screaming Trumpet sound source

I used reverb on all but the upright bass and kick drum.

Very atmospheric! Almost creepy.

I liked the different melodic themes - it kept things interesting.

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

Mario,

Awesome! Loved this.

You are really doing some unusual - and delightfully satisfying stuff with BIAB!!

An Earscape. Excellent mix.

A great listen...

Hi Mario,

This is excellent... just like all your music before it.

You've developed an admirable ability to create fine atmospheric music. As I listen, words that sprang to mind were: haunting, mysterious, sense of longing, aimless wandering.

I enjoyed this. It was another satisfying journey.

All the best,
Noel

Sounds a bit Bipolar to me smile

But seriously this has plenty of mood and feel.
Well done Mario. Rob4580

Moody and musical. Loved the playing - trumpet sounds great.

A very evocative composition.

Wow Mario. First that wind controller is such a cool instrument. That back track was something else. I just loved it. Well done

Very nice, Mario. Like the sparseness. The pizzicato strings really add a lot to the atmosphere in this one. Really nice job of arranging! Very cinematic (like so many of your songs).

Mario,
the Pizz strings are great as a foil to the smooth Midi trumpet.
"Filmic" seems the best adjective I can locate.
Lovely.


Cheers

Hi Mario,

Well you got me again, I absolutely love this. Echoes of the cold war/ spy movies of the sixties and seventies, but would work perfectly today too.

You really need to be aiming at some sort of movie/tv placements with these, they are too good to not be out there!

Fantastic job. smile smile

Dark & emotional...
But poignantly conveying your concept...
Lost Soul...
"wandering around, wasting his life"
Very nicely executed!

Thanx Floyd. BiaB give me lots of ideas and snippets to work with. I like experimenting with it and coming up with different themes.
