deweak.free.fr/mp3/Sans_titre_aout_2010.mp3This is my new song's basis. I still have to write the lyrics, here is a first version, straight from my studio ! In this song, the guitars are out of my AX-Synth (Roland's distorted sounds are very fat and heavy, I love their grain) and all the synths are Fusion ones. Drums from Superior Drummer, as usual. The game is : can you recognize the three main influences in this track ?

OK I'll play ... I can hear Ten Years After in this track ... not sure about the other two though. (To Jesse above ... just download the track by clicking on the link ... it worked OK for me.)

(sans titre auot) Very nice drive! But that repeating riff gets on my nerve somehow. It's almost a relieve when it stops. But nice when it comes back later near the end of the guitar solo. Perhaps something can be done about it's repetitiveness? Either silence it the 2nd or 3rd round or change the riff pattern? Just an idea. But maybe it's just me being oversensitive to repetitions in the mid spectrum -- repetitive basses are fine . Good guitar solo with balls. Energetic! Fine overall sound. Compact, but not too bombastic for it's style. The start of the tune really comes in convincing and groovy. But it's magic seems to fade after that. (perhaps this is just psychologically due to the repeating riff? An effect like "so... this is it". Removing the riff in one chorus and substituing it with a string-pad could 'keep the journey going' so to speak. I do like the tonal changes in the riff, but it's not strong enough to be really varied). Sorry for 'messing' with your composition. I just write what comes first in my mind. It's a fine piece actually, but it doesn't seduce me to listen to it over and over, because that riff gets tiresome. Taste, pleasure- and annoyance triggers are ofcourse subjective, so this is a very colored view. Oh, the crash cymbals are perhaps a bit too loud? They appear to be on top of the mix instead of in it. But again this is a matter of taste, so i'll shaddap now. (drum programming is interesting by the way; good variety without breaking the flow). Oh, and the ending is cute .

Yeah, this is a very useful analysis ! Thanks. In fact, as the vocals are not done, I can't finish the arrangement. I agree with you, I'm not happy with too repetitive parts. Maybe I'll do lots of cuts and add some other parts to fit the vocals.
