Have a listen...

Have a listen to this music I recorded a while back...

Clicky

I know what your thinking, it's not your average band. But it's more rhythm that melody. It consists of a vibraphone, a couple of marimbas, a drum kit, xylophone and various other percussion instruments. I'm on one of the marimbas (unfortunately I haven't learnt the drum-kit fully yet.)

Constructive criticism would be nice.
 
loving it,it's only 10% buffered and it sounds great.

Only 50 secs in loved the Xylophone, i don't know the other instrument so i would'nt know if i'd heard them yet.
 
Right off the bat I loved rhythm and the sound as well as the way the second player was introduced, though those first three notes, should have been much softer to create more of an impact. Afterwards very melodic and consistent with the runs. There were good dynamics around 2 min, with you guys playing very soft and slowly building up the sound, but I feel like perhaps it got a little too loud at your loudest point around 3 min, but it could just be the recording. The ending seemed a little drawn out to me though. I think it would have been better ending at 4.20.

Was this an song you guys wrote or was in preexisting. Either way I thought overall it sounded outstanding. I love the sound of Marimbas and other such instruments; they are so pretty! And it's there is a lot of melody in there, it's just that perhaps those who aren't musicians wont be as quick to notice.

That was actually written for our band by a friend. Mind you, he's about 25, and has a lot of talent. More music from him coming your way!

Yeah, this was recorded in a crowd of people so we had to play a little louder, but it didn't do much for the recorded version.

The ending seemed a little drawn out to me though.

This actually isn't the proper ending. I'll try to get the full version for you, but i'm not promising anything.

What I am promising, however, is more music heading your way. Updating soon (as soon as my other computer is fixed...)

Feel free to post more comments, I like hearing feedback!
