New song! With doubling technique!
For this new song, I tried using the playback/doubling technique that's typically used in eurobeat songs. The vocals here are combined from multiple takes, although a few parts only had one take so I kinda had to cheat it a little bit but I think I was still able to make it blend!
Anyways here's "Supersonic Drift" featuring Renchi Pegasasu on vocals, and yes... I was inspired by the one and only Initial D to create this. :3

Re: New song! With doubling technique!
The vocals sound submerged. Idk if that was intentional or not, but I'm not a huge fan of it. I do like the music, but the vocals aren't doing it for me.Galaxian Recordings wrote:For this new song, I tried using the playback/doubling technique that's typically used in eurobeat songs.

It doesn't sound like your vocals are all that bad. You probably had too many layers and too far apart. They actually sound like something Bobby-O tried a few years back with Robotik vocals. The riff is awesome. Very HRG Attack. and I also like the 80's Hi Energy Italo melody. I think it needs more diversity between the verses and chorus. The chorus should be the hook, but it stays in same tempo as the rest of the song, when it should be the part that stands out. Other than that; the song sounds pretty solid.
On a final note;
Don't take a page from SCP and try to shorten your song to SEB edit legnth. The song clearly needs about a minute and a half more to really make an impact. The hell with it. make it an extended version.
I would probably just shorten down the artist name to a something that fits the racing theme title.

I'm glad you all seemed to enjoy it! I was surprised to find out that I got over 50 views in less than a day, especially considering I was at my first day of an anime convention called Anime North today after I released my song! I guess you could say I over-produced Renchi a little bit, which I can fix for the release of Volume 1 for sure! I guess listening back to it I realized some of the echoing was a little bit harsh...surprised this wasn't mentioned. o.o lol
Oh, and by the way...those 3-4 minute versions I upload, they're just radio-edit shortened versions. I use this as a strategy to get people looking forward to my album which indeed will have extended versions that are 5-7 minutes long just like regular Super Eurobeat, Eurobeat Flash, Hi-BPM Para Para Eurobeat, Maharaja Night, etc. Also it helps me get my songs possibly being on radio. Speaking of that, a DJ at the local dance I go to played "Not Like The Others" and we all jammed out :3
Ryuk, you mean like that shinigami creature from Death Note that appears when Light writes the names on the book?! That's funny actually because tomorrow I'm going to be cosplaying as L at the convention! And I'll admit... I kinda rushed the artwork this time because I wanted to get the song out before I went to the convention. Others than that, I've been practicing a lot of anime wallpapers with OCs using Adobe Flash and Adobe Illustrator so it's a work in progress. That reminds me, I gotta stop being lazy on DeviantART and GET POSTING!! o.oxiao wrote:Also... work on the name; people hate pronouncing/typing long names that sound like a Lisa Frank book. I'd shorten the name to just Ryuko or Ryuk, & Renchi to Wrench or Rench... something suited to the Japanese kids's palates. The illustrations need lots of work too - they're charming but... if you can't score a decent illustrator just use a random anime pic, or take a good photo with a DSLR like Sugano does for his covers.
Oh my goodness, that's a good one. I should try using Pegasasu Team for sure! Only thing is there are two other Pegasasus that will appear on my second album (songs from Vol. 2 will start being posted from late June and on). Giggles and Goku Pegasasu will be making their debut. Maybe for Pegasasu Team, I can do a song with Renchi, Giggles and Goku doing vocals while I can maybe do some raps. lol.drnrg wrote:I would probably just shorten down the artist name to a something that fits the racing theme title.

LOL xD And yes, mwahahaha...well actually I get to prove Light Yagami that the Death Note is mine after all. And awesome, sounds like a good idea for sure! I can definitely take this into consideration!
And thank you so much, I am having a lot of fun at Anime North and I've been cosplaying there for three years! I was doing autographs for Galaxian Recordings yesterday even!
