[The Quest for Truth]

I don't know how I can describe a piano instrumental as "action packed", but I sure can for this track. I can't believe I recognized the sound of the clavinova. I have a really old electronic one in my house, and this song kinda brought be back to the days of jamming out on it as a kid (although I was never this good). Fantastic work as always! A great listen :)

Why hello there :D
In response to your response to my review, I've been chilling this past week, because the end of 2017 was... "action packed" for me ;)
But now I'm hoping to be as active as ever, and I aim to make all kinds of stuff!

Haha, since buying some piano VSTs, I haven't been using the audio from the Clavinova much, even though it has a nice sound in its own way. The reason I used it here, is because it's difficult to get a good sound for fast solo piano pieces, with the current piano VSTs.

I find that jamming on a "real" instrument is always tons of fun. I got a Ukulele for Xmas, so once I've learned to play it a bit, I might use it for a recording or two ^____^

Thanks for checking this piece out! It's a bit all over the place, but I'm glad you could appreciate that!

Funky! I would try stereo widening the gated synth at 0:40. It would have made this song sound so much... bigger. Also, I wonder if maybe that last chord doesn't really work? I dunno, maybe it's just me, but I would have had a different chord to end that progression.

Loved the synth solo at the end. Nice earworm,

EdKempeper responds:

Hi !
Thank you very much, your reviews are always constructive !
"stereo widening the gated synth" : mmmh, I used a stereo enhancer in some of my tracks, it's a nice idea, I'll try it next time.
" I would have had a different chord to end that progression." : yes, I focused on the drum part and on the bass part for this track, so I didn't spent a lot of time on the chord progression...
Thanks again for your review ! ;)

Thanks Larry!

[You Don't Have To Swear]

Trippy beat, I love it <3

Good to hear from you Quarl!

Quarl responds:

Nachos!! Woo hoo, cheesy cameo :D

[Midnight Drift (Final Mix)]

RARE!

Great track, loving the groove. I just wish you'd use more creative synths (they sound fine, just a little basic. The main chord progression sounds like a default saw sound).
