> Well, as many of you know by now, this song sadly didn't place at Wired96.
> Personally, I can't help but wonder if the "bleeps" in the playback were

> the fixed ones. I do know that when I played it to Statix and Screamager,
> they both loved it. Statix gave me 1st place in his votes, as did Cygnes.
> (Thanks, guys.) Anyway, hopefully when you hear this tune you'll love it
> just as much.

> I guess this means I won't be able to afford the trip to TP6. That upsets
> me; I was rather looking forward to it. Oh well.

> Here's the original song message...
> ...........................................................................

> Since the start of this tune, I've made a massive amount of changes, all
> of which have improved it beyond belief. =) Here's the list of "bugfixes"
> if you like... :)
>
> - cut the first three channels to ChanVol=48 to quieten the backing piano
> [HB]
> - added twinklechimes and rain to add atmosphere [VelluV]
> - added volume envelope to rain loop to make it a little more fitting
> [HB]
> - added variable volume to the overall piano to enhance feeling [HB]
> - changed the crappy "choir" type sample with an analog synth string
> [VelluV]
> - added more variety to the bassline throughout the song [?]
> - swiped Big Jim's guitar frets cos I KNEW they'd fit perfectly [uhh, me]
> - cured the song of Pattern Repetition syndrome :P [umm... me again]
> - switched the echo volumes from 64/32/22 to 64/24/16 cos the echoes were
> just too damn loud, basically :) [HB]
> - placed a few carefully-positioned note-delays on the piano backing to
> give it a more realistic feel [HB]
> - added portamento-to-note throughout some of the flute melody cos it
> sounds artificial (ugh) if it's retrigged too soon [uhh, me. Again. :)]
> - changed the bass sample to something FAR more suitable ;) [The Zapper!]
> - tweaked the bassline near the end of the song
> [uh, actually, The Zapper did that for me. :} ]
> - added more guitar throughout the song [Ballistique]
> - chopped off a big lump to stay within the 4-minute limit. Boo.
> [the Wired organizers. d0e!@]
> - made the bass fadeout in orders 22-23 more gradual [yep, me]
> - Lead into main melody in the 4-minute version more "gradual" (doesn't
> just jump in) using bass piano [ditto :)]
>
> And here's a list of the points raised which I disagreed with a little, or
> just thought were basically plain WRONG... :)
>
> - "You really need a bit of percussion in there..."
> - "It doesn't go anywhere!"
> [Yeah argh, I know, but like you said... it doesn't NEED to. ;)]
> - "It's beautiful, but it's not likely to win a party compo... they
> always tend to go for techno and commercial crap. :( "
> [They didn't at TP5 Gryzor, or Asm95... or NAID96. Lets just say I
> have a good feeling about this. ;) ]
> - "This 'ere string sample is better than that one you've used, I think"
> [Look HB, I'm telling you, that was histrings.hiqual.marcato under a
> different name and it was duff. :) Besides, the one I used has a kinda
> crispness to it which I really like. But thanks anyway.]
>
> If you think they were right and I was wrong, tell me so! My email addy is

> cmslhes1@livjm.ac.uk

> ...and I'll probably reply to it unless I forget. :}

> Greets to everyone at Wired96, especially the ppl I met there. Personal
> greets follow...

> Gandalf: I've already had a taste of the Mods Anthology CD I bought off
> you at the party. I imagine the samples on Ace CD 3 will be useful too,
> as will the source code. Hopefully I'll learn more about coding than
> this lousy Software Engineering degree I'm on. :) 1500 belgian francs
> for a total of SIX CDs! What a bargain. =)

> Vivid: Man, you guys were COMPLETELY robbed. Your tune should have EASILY
> made it to the final. The vocal samples really chilled me. =)

> [NOTE: if you don't have it - "The Mists Of Avalon" - GO GET IT! ;) ]

> Screamager/DD/BassQ: You were all robbed too. I guess they don't
> understand the concept of the "pre-selection jury", huh? :I
>
> Welti: Thanks for the samples! I look forward to using them in the future.
> I only wish I had some to give you. Damnit, I need a Yamaha PSR520. :)
>
> Statix/Optix: Hmm. Somehow, "UK Wired Intro Domination" doesn't really
> have the same ring to it. :} You sure rocked their asses tho. =)
>
> Aquafresh: Thanks for helping me get thru customs. Next time, I really
> must remember to bring my passport with me. %)

> Lobster/MikkE/Arjay/Spansh: See you all at Tesko 97. God help me. :D
