Gloria - buzzmachines composition

[Translucid]

I made a song for music theory class. It's my first real composition in buzz (and one of my first true compositions, as well). I wanted to show my music theory class a bunch of different software synthesizers.

Just download the lofi of "Gloria - Finished." The hifi doesn't work, because soundclick is dumb.

If the song seems simplistic, that's because I will be playing my violin with it in class for the presentation. I'd record my violin, but all of my mic's are crappy. Still, overall, I'm really happy with just this.

Questions, comments, and criticism preease.

I used to think synthesizers were awesome, but this is just weird.

It's composed fairly well, though, and it does sound good. I just don't like the heavily synthesized feel.

Re: Gloria - buzzmachines composition

I wanted to show my music theory class a bunch of different synthesizers, as the theme of the project was 20th century techniques. but yeah, being that all the synthesizers were not meant to truly convey real instruments, it does have a heavily synthesized feel.

Not bad. The fart-esque synth sound was a bit on the odd side. Let us know when you pop in the voilin stuff.

I like it. Just the fart synth kinda sounds like it's going flat or sharp, which is intended to make it swelly and farty, but sounds kinda weird.

Still good though.

ehh, the chord progressions are a bit weird, so when I tried to fix the "farty" (heh) synth to fit it, it sounded like it was going out of tune. oh well...
