Title: [Music] New wings
Post by: Razzorman on August 09, 2009, 21:23:02

I made this song to see if I could make something that sounds like I have the slightest ability to play the piano.
I really don't. X)

Its pretty short, but I don't think I could have made it much longer without making it boring.

Well, coming from a piano player, it does indeed seem that you can't really play the instrument.

It feels very piano-roll-ish.

There's also no sense of direction or dynamics what-so-ever. Some of the voicings are a bit off as well, and there's not much backbone as far as harmony goes.

Mimicking the ability to play an instrument entitles more than just having the sound (or timbre) playing some notes. It involves expression, dynamics, rhythm and harmony.

Well, Its not like I didn't try. I suppose what little humanizing I did do wasn't enough.
