Radio bed

[CTWF]

Hello everyone!

Haven't been here in a while. Hope ya all doing well!

So, this is for direct library brief. What they want: "Radio Beds in modern/youthful styles. Short (2-5 seconds) but recognizable sound logo followed by the music bed (repetitive and easy loopable, but still with some variation) and closing up with the logo again."

What I have so far: https://soundcloud.com/ctwf/happyupdate ... al_sharing

Watcha thinking?

Hi, just a few opinions but YMMV.
Sorry to say that although it might sound like a backdrop to radio news it doesn't sound youthful or modern to me.
There are some rather tired synth sounds in the body, and I think the piano is a bit too full and prominent to sit under news reporting.
The logo doesn't sit with the rest, particularly on the last note (beginning and end).
Hope that helps .

Hey Graham

Thanks for listening and for a lot of food for thought!

Hallo Tom!!
Wie gehts?
i think you have a good starting point but in order to improve your track you can go to some good music libraries; (https://www.universalproductionmusic.com for instanse) and under the "music For" section, click on "news" and there you can listen to some good references so you can have a better idea on how to improve your track.

Hallo Tom!!

Hola Juan!

I tried to improve on the feedback that I have gotten so far. The bed is not necessarily for news, I think. Possibly more for short info bits presented by the host, e.g. information on concerts or other events. Just guessing.

So here is the newest version: https://soundcloud.com/ctwf/happyupdate ... al_sharing

The synths should sound fresher/better and the overall mix should be, too.
