Check out my new tune!

It's been about a year or so since I posted a song on here, and I'm happy enough with this latest one to feel confident enough to post one for you guys

. There's a lot more top quality players and recordings on here than last time so it's a lot more intimidating now!

Anyhow, the song is called "Omnipotence", and I set up a soundclick site because the quality sucks on myspace

Here's the link straight to the song's page: Soundclick.com

It's more of an idea type song than a finished product. It'll have vocals and more sections etc. when I get around to working it into a full song for my band. Don't expect any super shredding on this, because I'm not a great lead player (yet

). I'm not too sure about the little lead in the middle, so I might scrap that.

Anyway, guitars were done with my 7620 w/Tonezone 7 into my PodXTpro direct into an Mbox2, with DKFHS for drums (which I got 2 weeks ago and couldn't be happier with

), bass is pitch shifted guitar and synths are some random soundfonts I found on the internet, so they're not top quality. Mixed on Beyerdynamic DT770 headphones, so I dunno how great the mix is. I was really surprised with the tone I got from the pod, considering I hated the Tonezone before

Anyway, enough talking. Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated, and I hope ya'll enjoy the song!

Fucking awesome song man. I love the ambient feel the keyboard samples put into it. I think it makes it sound more epic. Keep up the good work.

After listening to the song over and over, I noticed something. The ending kind of just drops off. It need to have some sort of finale. IMO

Fuckin' superb stuff, Ben! Has an SYL vibe to it, in a cool way. When completed to an entire song then I'd imagine it'll be an album highlight.

Very very good!

Great job man to be honest I quite like that little lead bit in the middle, I'd keep that sonofabitch in there!

Shikaru · 01-24-2007, 03:56 PM

Thanks for all the kind words guys! They're very much appreciated

+Rep for all of you

Yeah, like I say, it's by no means the final song structure etc. But thanks anyway, Chris

. I'll try my best to come up with a good ending for it!

Sounds great! Guitars sound real meaty, just the way I like it.The choir sounds really give it a cool vibe. The lead is pretty cool. I agree that you need a proper ending for it.

Ror3h · 01-24-2007, 06:08 PM

Wow that sounds great man!
I like the guitar tone too, and agree that it has a little of an SYL vibe to it

I too think it needs a good ending, its kinda building up to something towards the end there.
Good stuff!

Very cool mate, better than anything I've come up with so far! So no look in for my old RG7621 then? I'm very surprised at how good the TZ7 sounds there, I never managed to get on with it.

Needs some kind of craziness to explode at the end there I think.

Wow this is better than I thought it would be.
