A hardcore killer - very nice experimentation.. mixing/mastering is good as well..

I gave this a listen and the first thing that I think you should do is give this some tempo. It's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to slow for this kind of track. Sound too tame at that speed, at least 140 or so.

For this type of track you really need to work on the percussion as it's what makes good techno. It's too minimal at the moment and get's a little boring because of it. It's also loosing the energy that it promises in the beginning.

Percussion is one of the most important things in techno and I can hear that this song has some but it gets lost in the background.

Your sound is clear and seem to have an idea where you want to take this track.
Keep this one going as I would love to hear the finished piece.

Cheers
Nem

And I thought i was weird.

This song gives me the impression of a merry-go-round in the middle of hell.

Hey Sirocco,

Im checking this out right now.
Ill get back to you with my very very humble impression in a bit.
Merry-go-round in the middle of hell?!

edit:
First of all, I would like to say: What the Fuck?
Not my usual cup of tea, but I do like it!
Id have to agree with Nem though, increase tempo!!
Also, you sound like you have awesome percs mixed in the back of the song. If you pay a lot of attention to the percussion loop you got going on, which does sound real fantastic, it could drive the song.
Lets hear some more treb on them!

I like it a lot so far. However, I hope this doesnt get to well-known. Because Im sure if it did the murder rate would sky-rocket!!

Oooh. A new Siroco (Land Dweller) track. Currently Downloading, although it's a bit slow. Will let you know impressions soon.

EDIT:

okay, I like how it begins. It's slow, and I like the tempo the way it is. I like some of the synth effects, the light filtered percs, and the 'wind sounding' FX you got going on.

The MADNESS IN THIS SONG! I LOOOOOVE IT! The melody is pretty cool with that synth, and that weird snare roll/bass has this wicked feel to it.

I'd like to hear the full track man! I can actually appreciate this kinda music. Reminds me of a mix of Techno, and IDM! A nice mix that would be!

thanks guys i rarely have time to work on tracks anymore i got school for 35 hours a week and work 32 hours a week so its a bit tough to get things dobe

Posted by djHollen on Feb-04-2004 23:05:

thats all right sirocco!
obviously work and school are very important too.
when ever you can though, you know?
just keep at it even though its tough to make time.
we all love your music

If you guys think this is weird, then you guys should listen to some crazy IDM - WarpRecords has a good source of crazy Electronic Music.

Or this one song I made called "Go Away" It freaked a few people out, and turned them off. Sirocco, I totally understand this song! Valentines day SUCKS!!!

haha.. I wouldn't say it sux.. it has it's perks (you're guaranteed to get laid) but besides for that it just costs money.. damn world..

Posted by tranzMental on Feb-06-2004 05:12:

So it costs $$$ to get laid. So technically, aren't most women prostitutes that day?
