An Ominous Noise

Another quick throw-together from a week or so back. I'm terrible with names for instrumentals but this is what came to mind. Maybe simply "Ominous" would have been a better choice. Anyway, here it is:

I changed just about everything from the original style (Doodad Ambient, etc.), except I kept the bass and original drums. I added two more drum parts and the lead guitar.


File:An Ominous Noise.SGU

Key=Am , Tempo 90, Length (m:s)=3:22

Style is _DOODAD.STY (Doodad Ambient RnB Synth Solo)

RealTracks in style: 2741:Bass, Synth, AltHipHopA-B Ev16 085

Alan,

This sounds great - would be perfect for a Tarantino movie. Sounds awesome turned up loud - killer mix.

A good crisp mix and I'm liking what you did with the percussion.
To me it has a nice bouncy overall feel.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Very cool sound going on here Al. I wouldn't even know where to begin to try to put together an instrumental, and you are a master. Loved the guitar work was nice and I liked the percussion in there as well. The mix was terrific.

You are the man with the full on BiaB writes and productions.

It sounds great ... like studio musicians who've long been working together.

Those multiple drum tracks are amazing! Great choice on the solo RT also.

Most cool!

Alan,

Excellent.

You ALWAYS do a great job of putting together a solo guitar track!
(...and all the others sound great, too).

Excellent mix.

A bit of a Jeff Beck vibe to this - like it came right off one of his records.
Impressive.
Loved it.

Lovely textures added ---cool.

Lovey work. A cohesive instrumental and you always get the guitar tracks sounding like a solo rather than a bunch of licks.

Very nice.

Quickly thrown together as it may be, it sounds really good! The mix is powerful and crystal clear.

You've made an excellent choice with the Brent soloist (his RTs are always awesome).

Well done.

Al, this is fantastic.

Great work on that guitar solo
The whole band sounds like a live jam - brilliant work
Super mix

Me, it's not about how many times you fail, it's about how many times you get back up.

Love it. The driving rhythm, hypnotic beat, powerful mix with timely held chords for variation. It all makes for a great track - one that would fit well in a movie or TV.


My music may not set the world on fire but if it causes a glow in just one person's heart, it has all been worthwhile smile

HI Dan ...
