MarioNintendo + piano

**MarioNintendo** · 08-2-2012, 12:49 PM

lol what am I doing with my life. I'm no pro piano player, don't expect anything fancy. I just recorded myself with my iPhone this morning and wondered what you guys thought about this improvisation. (The clipping noise you might hear in the background is actually the sound my pedal makes when I press it rofl

)

You think it's that good?

Here's another one then:

Notation / composition-wise it is very enjoyable, yes.

The only main gripe would be the bad quality recording otherwise this is very pleasing to the ear. Both works.

Well remember I'm recording with an iPhone, I don't have a studio (yet?).

I made this for you two minutes ago I waited for you to post because I didn'T want to double post

Beautiful :')

Love the jazzy feel of the piece, the increase in pace... excellent and don't forget the vocal intro haha.
This is really sweet for improvisation, definitely keep making more and I do like good piano music like this.

Now we need to get the talented steppers (perhaps you) to make a simfile for that. God, I would really like these songs in studio quality -- I dig this.

PS: Tried my best to master it considering the source and without reducing dynamics (**** loudness war) I think it sounds a bit better now

(Use this if stepping)

I'm honored :') Someone, step this! It'd be good on FFR :3

I'll try to come up with more stuff, I didn't expect you to like it CBR :>

Despite the poor recording quality, you have a knack for composition. Keep it up, haha.

Ben Cooper (and I'm sure many others) likes to record live piano with 2 or 3 microphones. You can set up one on the left and one on the right to capture a stereo image and on the back (a bit further away) to get the room's acoustics. I wish I could try it myself but I don't have a real piano

hmm, nice idea, how do I mix the audio, though? I'm sure iTunes can't do this, lol. Do I simply make both tracks play in garageband, for example?

Here's another one. I didn't stop making songs, I just forgot about this thread LOL
