This works really well, Vince. I can just picture that random swooping shape shifting formation. 14:23 Definite earthy folk undertones which give it a wonderful dark texture. Shades of the rather macabre string arrangement (The Gravel Road) by James Newton Howard in the film noir, 'The Village'. Just wonder whether Col Legno (bass) counter rhythms would work well in place of percussion to firm up the string thing depiction of the wholesome image of a murmuration of Starlings.
I really enjoy these music breakdowns. In terms of bass for cinematic music I would love to hear your opinion and views. I tend to use too often very low notes on the cello or contrabass for too long on a track. I think that should occur on a certain moment only but I keep making that mistake. Do you have tips to structure/arranging a track without overuse the same ranges?
Heya! Glad you enjoyed the video. It really depends on the style so I think the best thing to do is listen to music you enjoy and make notes about what is filling up the low frequencies in each section. I agree with you that it’s a good idea to leave space and to mix it up between sections. I quite commonly use a pure sounding synth sub bass to layer with the contrabasses for extra depth.
Love the percussion section. That cycles hit is amazing
Great!
