More than meets the eye

This one is for the Transformers cartoon fans out there hehe.

I only just started to tinker with this one (a tinker draft), and most likely will add some nice extra sophistication in bits later, and maybe put some extra take on it. This one is from the P-515, with stock CFX sound. I also like the Bosie sounds - which is mellow.

Not familiar with the cartoon, but I enjoyed listening to that. It's nice and relaxing. You should develop it more.

David B Genuine thanks David. Thanks for letting me know you find it relaxing and nice. I'll remember what you mentioned, and work on it more. Much appreciated.

sounds cool sp, that's from transformers ? 😄 or are you riffing?

SouthPark

kawafanboi KFB hehe …. the general tune/melody is from the old cartoon Transformers. And then we just re-style it a bit hehe. I think you are right though - it is probably riffing. Choosing standard-issue chord pattern, with the regular sort of arpeg, sometimes going up and down pattern, and occasional contrary motion. And changing things up a bit every now and again. Thanks KFB (and David)!!

I started tinkering with this one yesterday --- and this one is for 'new' transformers fans. It's the movie era one. Still getting used to the motions, but once all under control, I'll later do a new one with nicer flow and nuances, much more feeling etc.

Quite a nice tune by the person that composed it. There's more to the tune. I'll just pick out more bits that I like and add.

I like the first one better because it has a prettier melody. It seems like many times remakes in movies tend to not be as good as the original. I'm not sure if that's the case with old/new transformers, but if the song is any indication I wouldn't be surprised if the old transformers is preferred by many of the fans.

David B Totally agree with you about that David! I like the first one more also, due to the melody. The new one tune does pack some orchestral punch/energy once it gets going, and fairly nice movement and sound. But the first one certainly is prettier. Totally agree with that description.

For the new movies, they were probably hand and leg tied to the mandatory 'formula' for plots. Like sound effect and computer animation, and relationship between guy/girl etc. If only we could take over and inject something new and fantastic -- would be nice!! But those directors are always locked to formulae. Although … interesting … the Oscars night saw some change … with the 'everything at once' movie being very well received.
