WTC

WTC by Mathijs Middag is probably about the 11 September disaster.

The track contains a string most of the time, with some ( out of tune ) flute sample playing along side it with no rhytmical pattern at al.

You realy need to do better.

This song is just total rubbish. WTC is probably meant to be a thematic song (with a link to the events of the 11th of september?), but is in the end absolutely nothing. I am really proud of myself that I managed to listen to this track 4 whole times, because it just isn't music. There's some bell-sample, a low filterpad, some noise, a wrongly looped panflute and, er, something that is beeping. If you care to listen, here's what you will hear:
a bell melody...nothing...a filterpad...noise...beep beep beep...bell melody...panflute...something undefinable...(attention!)a filterpad and a panflute!...nothing...noise...a bell melody...beep beep beep...panflute...nothing.

This is just plain nothing. I somewhere understand the intention of this wannabe-thematic song, but it is so not-worked out. The envelopes of the different, er, sounds are wrong (giving a static effect), the, er, sounds don't fit eachother, the, er, sounds don't have quality, the structure isn't giving any excitement at all, there's no atmosphere...etc etc.

Nothing.

To the artist: as you can read above I am not very fond of this track. If you plan to make a thematical song, focus very well on the ambiance that you try to make. The basspad needs much more frequencies & should be darker (more scary), the envelopes of the different instruments should have some fluidity in the form of fading in & out, their should be some form of cohesiveness between the different sounds, the structure should go somewhere and the melodies should build up the audible enviroment. Good luck!
