Hello Andrew!
I suppose improving your brass - and woodwinds - is due to playing. You
might distribute your brass across the stereo spectrum. If you have chords
break them up, not in the middle, but in a nested sort of way, something like:
C G
eb c
If you want it even more lively than that, when changing chords, do it not
all at once - if it feels good at the time -, but drag the notes one by one.
Or when you hit the new chord, start with a sus4 and from there go to the
minor chord.
I found the staccato clarinet part in Infinte nice. It sounded real. perhaps
it was just played as a real clarinet player would do it.
Oh another short thought: I think you had a lot of octaves in the brass,
avoid them a bit more. I can't help myself, but especially when sampled
libraries are used, this sounds extra canned.
These are just thoughts, opinions I gained by simple experience over time.
They may not really fit your bill or there maybe other better suggestions. I
suppose mainly it comes down to: Think of what the instruments can play and
how they'd do it and roll with it.
Kind regards
Julien
