[Done] "Pillars" - Electronic/Metal Fusion

[ItStartsAtDusK]

Hi everyone! My name's Dustin, and I'm an independent composer based out of Indianapolis.

I'm here to submit a track; "Pillars".

Version 4
Listen: https://soundcloud.com/itstartsatdusk/pillars
Download (WAV): http://www.itstartsatdusk.com/otherp...%20Pillars.wav

The entire idea for this track was to make something groove-based and aggressive, and reminiscent of some of the more hard-hitting tracks from the UT soundtrack, such as "Save Me". It's designed to loop from 0:12.63.

This track would probably be best for a close-quarters map with an industrial or "tech" feel to it.

EDIT: I'd also like to mention that I'm totally open to create tracks for specific maps. If you're a map developer and want me to make you something special, give me a shout here or email me at dustin@dustinbmusic.com.

EDIT 2: Version 2 is up. Reworked some of the synths and minor mixing tweaks.

EDIT 3: Version 3 is up. I made quite a few changes based on feedback here and OC ReMix. For the first (roughly) half of the track, it's mostly mixing tweaks and changes to synth character. I've also put in about one minute of new music. Huge thanks to everyone who has given me feedback on this so far!

EDIT 4: Version 4 is up.

EDIT 5: Marked Version 4 as done.

Great sound

Really like the composition, it sound retro and modern at the same time

The only thing that I found is it need to be longer, 3:00 - 3:30 is the average.

The least I can say it's that it is an awesome start!

[Raste]

This sounds exactly like one of the 2K4 soundtrack, can't remember the name though

[excavare]

Aww, seriously good work! One of the rare perfect fits so far, imho

Just one Thing to note ( just my personal oppinion):
The Saw-Lead starting @ 0:53 sounds quite Cheap, at least unfiltered. When the lowpass Kicks in it doesnt sound this bad anymore. Though, as you need the drive from it with its frequencies spiked out, id mayb replace it with a better sounding synth.
BUT- this is the only thing i dislike - as i already stated, perfect work apart from that!

This is a sexy track, very nice guitar stuff The drums are also great, not very keen on all of the synths though, some of them could use a little bit more flavor, kinda like excavare pointed out above.

But this would go great with some hectic DM map like DM-Nicktest!

Version 4 is up; basically just a couple of mixing tweaks from version 3. If I see no other feedback after a couple more days, I'll mark this as done.

EDIT: Marked as done.

I know I'm late to the party as this flagged 'done' but anyway... Really diggin' the riffing, but synths are kind of too dominant for my taste. Especially between 0.55m and 1.30m.

Awesome work

Made a post at my blog and V. 4 as been added to my collection

Sounds remarkably like Kevin R's track for UT2k4.

In that their both guitar-driven fusions of electronic and metal music? Yeah, I could see that, but I definitely wouldn't say "remarkably".

[TrickyVein]

That's your prerogative.

[Frostbite83]

Is a very cool Track for Unreal Tournament so cracy

[Krokussify]

Could be the Razorback of UT4. Nice.
