Race to Win

Post by hummingbird » Sun Oct 26, 2008 12:47 pm

One of my goals this month was to go outside my comfort zone and try a couple of different things, like dance/electronica, orchestra/choir, and this... which I hope is sports/action.http://vikkiflawith.com/audio/VIKKI_FLA ... _Win-3.m3u

Yeah, Bird, I get sports out of this piece. Extreme sports, like snowboarding or skateboarding and maybe even downhill skiing. The beginning is really abrupt and sounds like a crash of noise. It is a lot smoother at :21. Perhaps you might start the piece there.Wig

Wig - thanks for that feedback!!! I think you're right on the money. I edited it to start later & uploaded it. Better?

Better?Yupper, Bird,Now I'm hearing a Gatorade commercial. (You know, when they say, "Is it in you?") Just about the right length, too for a 30 second spot.Cool. Lot's of energy. I think you might have a winner here.I like the verb on the big percussion instrument. (bass drum?)This also reminds me of the opening ceremony of the Olympics in China. Remember the 2000 drummers that jumped out of the boxes.That was cool, too. Good work, Wig

Hey H'bird!Yeah it's got that sports/action vibe to it, BIG & POWERFUL sounding. Now all ya' need is some other instrumentation ta' go underneath it. Sounds like EWQL is callin'! I-468

Sounds perfect Vikki, although I admit to knowing noting about it except for watching sports on TV once in awhile.Cam
