Hey everyone,
This is something that’s been on my mind lately. Long story short I’ll compose a track, with full intention of it being an electronic/instrumental piece, but in the end it sounds like it’s…missing something. More specifically it’ll sound like an instrumental where the vocals were simply lopped out, as opposed to something that can stand on its own. Currently experiencing that feeling with this one:
Now I’m not opposed to adding vocals, since it’s something I’ve done in the past, but I’m just curious why it doesn’t have that “full, complete” feeling that a lot of electronic music does. Is it the mix? The arrangement? The melodies themselves? All of the above? Would love to hear people’s thoughts on this!
Edit: I will say the B section at 2:00 feels a little more full. Maybe it’s because the Moog is louder?
