EM pres. Opium - Evolved (Original Mix)

Hi there TA!
Started to produce under a different name as you may have noticed.
Anyway, i tryed to produce something in the ASOT style but with a small touch of my own style . Comments good or bad would be more than appreciated, as always .

Cheers!

great tune mate the best production I have heard from you. I see on this prodcution you have spent time to work on the melody, as your other productions the melodies were quite cheesy.

Neways great track and good luck with it!

Nice tune man!
Defiantly your best tune so far, comments as I listen through:

I love the intro, thought there isn't enough percussion at the breakbeat parts it still sounds good, kinda chilled...
When the 4/4 beat comes in al those background effects sound really good, the filtered synth gives it a great feeling.
Bass could use some more work but it sound ok...
4:33 - its nice that you use breakbeat elements in the intro and breakdown but you really need to add some more drums and percussion layers to make it sound fuller and more driving.
The melody is nice, 6:00 the mix really sounds good at this point.

Overall the tune is banging, its diffrent from your usual style and thats what I like about it, good to have you back sir

I really like this song. great job dude. I know some people are gonna say you are light on the bass. But I for one think that its sounds fine on my end.

Wow, thanks everybody!
Origin: Wasnt sure about the bass either, but i thought a simple bass would fit here more .

Posted by Fundamental on Feb-16-2004 23:09:

Wow man, this totally took me by surprise. It's so different to everything else I've heard from you. You've obviously spent a lot of time getting everything sounding nice. FX are superb.

Will definitely listen to this some more.

Comments as I listen:

-Cool pads in the intro, though maybe a little too harsh on the high end of things. Some *slight* EQ'ing might help, but this is minor.
-The way the bass creeps in there is awesome. Really awesome, fucking dope in fact
-This has a lot of nice drive to it, but I think the kick could use some beefing up and the bassline could carry more low end to it.
-Background FX are quite good. Percussions are pretty good but could use a little more beefing up IMO.
-The hook is pretty nice, but possibly a little softsynthy sounding. The overall drive at 3 minutes is really good, could see this working quite well on the dancefloor.
-The pads in the breakdown are really nice but could benefit from a basspad in there I think for added phatness.
-Lacks a little energy at climax, due mostly to the bassline. Really needs some more sub-bass in there. Otherwise really nice.

Dope tune here man, it just needs a little more work on the various elements. The melody, structure and arrangement is all bang on, it's just that some of the individual sounds need some fattening up in order to really give this a professional sound.

Cheers!
