Glitter Boy 16,215 Posted October 29, 2022 OKAY so here's the first concept demo for the instrumental. Tried to follow some of what's been said regarding the sound, but it still needs A LOT of work done with it. I will try and rework it asap. Rough af, not even mixed properly but you can get the vibe i guess? it's just the first half and will get bigger towards the second half. Any feedback is more than welcome! idea 1 instrumental 3 minutes ago, KingsMotelPart2 said: Don't worry, I understand perfectly, I once tried to do something on FL Studio and ended up with a broken head, but it can always be fixed, so cheer up, and I send you lots of love and good vibes!!!! thanks a lot babes! probably if i let it rest for a little and come back with renewed energies i can make it work. will give it a try tomorrow along with the comments y'all provide! <3 9 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just listened to it, it sounds very atmospheric, the beginning reminds me a bit of I talk to Jesus!, I even tried it with a random melody I came up with, and it went very smoothly for a first idea 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plastiscguy 58,043 Posted October 30, 2022 By the way, should we create a group chat or a discord server so we can share the audio files easier? like, maybe have separate channels for each parts of the song, like one for songwriting brainstorm, one for the production, etc? I don't even remember if LB had an official server or not Anyways 4 Quote My rose garden dreams set on fire by fiends... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UGH LEGEND it means a lot, thanks <3 yup, it's 94 BPM but it will probably be slower considering the very on point suggestion of @Surf Noir, which I also considered first. Spoiler don't k1ll me but I know nothing about chords, lmao. this is what i came up with - applies for piano, strings and that orchestral-esque synth. as for how to read it, i have absolutely no idea 4 minutes ago, plastiscguy said: By the way, should we create a group chat or a discord server so we can share the audio files easier? like, maybe have separate channels for each parts of the song, like one for songwriting brainstorm, one for the production, etc?

I think that would make it easier to interact and stuff. however i don't really know how to create one 2 Quote "I'm wild, I'm free, no man can handle me" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
