Title: Sonispherical Post by: impablomations on August 10, 2010, 01:00:31 AM Well I've had a week to recover from Sonisphere, now I remember why I havent been to a festival for years... it wears you out! >:D
Bass line came 1st, and sort of built intro around that. Totally unintentional but a little bit of an Iron Maiden vibe to the guitars methinks.. I wonder why? lol Now to spend a good while catching up on all the nifty tunes I've missed ;D Title: Re: Sonispherical Post by: impablomations on August 10, 2010, 01:18:15 AM Forgot to add, I "borrowed" the lyrics from a Hawkwind song called The Golden Void, one of my favourites, as they seemed to fit perfectly.

Totally unintentional but a little bit of an Iron Maiden vibe to the guitars methinks.. I wonder why? lol Now to spend a good while catching up on all the nifty tunes I've missed ;D Great little tune,I enjoyed it mate,very nice Rui Title: Re: Sonispherical Post by: kara on August 10, 2010, 02:56:54 PM That Iron Maiden guitar sound is perfect, very very close to the typical IM sound, very well done.
I personaly would bring the vocals a bit more upfront, a question of taste I guess. I somewhere agree with Thom, it misses a bit that grand finale typical to those rocksongs, I was waiting for the energy to burst off and it didn't happen. You could perhaps extend the song a bit ? k Title: Re: Sonispherical Post by: impablomations on August 10, 2010, 04:52:16 PM I know what you guys mean about it not sounding finished, I have an Idea, don't know how it will pan out but I think I'll give it a try.
Make it part 1 of a 3 part song, part 2 obviously more upbeat then into part 3 as it winds back down, like part 1 in reverse. A bit like some of the old prog rock songs with a common theme across 2 or 3 songs. The final thing will probably end up over 10mins long, but who said tunes had to be 3 mins? lol Besides I haven't attempted approaching a song this way before, so it will be a challenge :D Title: Re: Sonispherical Post by: kara on August 10, 2010, 05:12:54 PM I know what you guys mean about it not sounding finished, I have an Idea, don't know how it will pan out but I think I'll give it a try.
