For the first gun barrel (the default video on your channel):

Take it easy on the compression! You're really smashing the detail out of the audio. It also sounds like you're punching the hell out of the highs and lows while killing the mids.  That's a mistake a lot of people make - i.e. the smile curve.

Second gun barrel (going down the list of uploads)

You're still putting way too much emphasis on the highs.  This one specifically has ONLY highs. Fill up the spectrum and this one has some potential.

Gun barrel 5:

It doesn't sound quantized to me, but maybe that was intentional. Idk, it sounds pretty messy in terms of timing. Sorry, don't have much I like about this one.

Quantum of Solace car chase:

It started out nice, but as soon as the action started, I felt like I was in an 8 bit video game. I don't mean to discourage you, it could very well be that your samples and synths simply suck hard. From everything I've heard, you really love that high end of the spectrum. Balance it out and give the mids and lows some love.

Sorry for coming across negative, but keep doing what you're doing man!

This belongs in your other topic. Why make two topics about your gun barrel music? Also, why make the change from youtube to megaupload? People are more likely to listen if they only have to make one click, as opposed to a captcha and a minute wait.

No lol, I have been working on these for about a month, took the time to orchestrate it, i have always wanted to do this, i have played the piano for about 6-7 years. The Frigate at the end sounds bad because it isn't finished and missing a key instrument.

Not a bad start - there's definitely a lot more opportunity for this piece to grow.  If you don't mind, I just thought I'd share a few things that I thought while listening to it:

I'm not sure how it's coming out on your setup, but on my setup, your mix could definitely use more bass.

In addition, it might be nice to get away from the chorus / phaser periodically - it has a tendency to cover the melodic things that are happening in the other patches.

I'm curious to what exactly you mean by "orchestrate," because the term usually implies instruments, and part from the strings in the middle, the texture is mostly electronic.

At around 1:17 you use a tritone to imply a secondary dominant.  I was disappointed that it didn't modulate or re-appear later on.

Those are just some thoughts...overall, good start!

This isn't the overall finish piece, This the basic runway, i am added other instruments (Orchestrated) with different notes added. I understand i need to get away from the "synth" I also think it has more opportunity :).

Here is a new Goldeneye Multiplayer theme I'm working on, It's a WIP, and the guitar needs to be reworked, other than that i think it is worth showing.Tried to stay original. Here is the link:



Feedback would be great.
