Robert Nickson - Twisted by Design (Massive vs Paolo pres. Vindication Remix) <256>

Been ages, but finally something is finished!

So surfing the TA midi site, i saw the MIDI and went playing a while back, added few things changed few things, and left it allone.

Today in the morning, Paolo heard it and wanted to join, and yes it worked out great. We both are satisfied since this version adds something new in the climax.

Our collab allias will be Vindication and this is Trance at 140bpm not the usuall prog hehe .

Feedback and comments are welcome

Save Target

Fahad and Paul.

Very nice tune u got here , i like the bassline , i suggest improving the pre-melody's synth...i dont like the pads , seems to be weak...
overally nice track but i like the original :P
Peace out mates!

wooo twisted by design !! my fav' tune at the moment. let me listen to this, i'll be back in a little time for some commenting


ok here we go !

IMO:

* kick is very nice
* dont really like the clap
* percussion is very well done, perhaps a bit simple
* dont really like that 'harsh' synth that comes in around 2:00, would be great without this and with a nice pad in the background really ! take this off please
* overall sound is nice and clean
* now's the break: nice pads, main synth comes in, with a nice relaxing sound behind, i like that !

Overall production quality is very nice as usual, i think that the climax could have been more big tho

well done !

hey Massive.

Never heard the original, so all I can say is that this is very moving and sounds like it took a lot of work! The pads, IMO, are the best feature! I do agree with Perry on one thing though...the pre-melody synth doesnt do it for me. I love that midi loop that you have layered on top of the pads....excellent. @7:00 I like the new synth that comes in.

Great Job you two!

production wise it's good, but i dunno, it is so plain really


Posted by Andy Sevil on Nov-14-2004 20:57:

From listening to this - you two are goin to be some team - cause this is fuckin tight!!

It all sounds gd to me - especially the percussion and synths! - I thought the break could have been better - maybe a few more sounds thrown in there? who knows - but gd job guys!

well listening in my headphones here: kick and bass line not bad, leads are as somebody mentioned plain, and have some of that "digital emptyness" , nice pads in the breackdown. Overall nice try, but need to work the sounds, especially the leads in there a little more, to make it sound real good.


Posted by pho mo on Nov-15-2004 02:32:

Nice work guys, there's lots of elements in here that go really well together. The pads are completely lush, and are the best part of this remix. The mixing is superb. I do agree with Montana though, there's some overall dynamic lacking in this version. Excellent production quality though!


Posted by Massive84 on Nov-15-2004 05:47:

Well thanks everyone

ya pho am very happy you liked the breakdown am so pleased with that part.

but the lead i do agree, am not 100% happy with it, am gonne try to adjust it with paolo after school, but i REALLY tried giving it a different sound but am so done with Reason, i can't do original things anymore, time to move on soon.

thanks for listening everyone.

I can hear some synths that surely needs more reverb to fit into the song. You have to work on that. Almost every sound you use sounds very dry. Make it more dreamy --> Add reverb. I like the strings though!


Posted by Mane on Nov-15-2004 16:34:

i dont like orginal one so i hope you made something good with it :P
i dont like clap :P, very good bassline, nice acid sound, all fx are very good , but i dont like melodie (its not your fault:P) everything is very good except sound of melodie it sounds to "computery" :P


Posted by Beyer on Nov-18-2004 00:02:

Great pads! Very cool bass. But I agree with those who said that the lead is abit plain. I love the original, and I love this aswell! Great!


Posted by thoughtlessjex on Nov-18-2004 04:34:

Are those frogs?

I like your bassline.

Are those effects supposed to be completely in the right channel. I'm feeling a little unbalanced here.

Melody needs some atmosphere, IMO.

Not a bad track, but certainly not the best I've heard. To tell the truth, it kinda fell flat, energy-wise. This is much more of a listening track than a go insane track.


Posted by Massive84 on Nov-18-2004 05:15:

Well thanks for the feedback all.

I agree, the main synths lacks, trying to imrpove it and will upload a 256 version this week.

Am done making Trance with Reason, this will be my final thing, it's just not possible anymore for me, i can use my Furor presets and stuff but i am not like that, i try to be different with each tune i make.

EDIT.
frogs? if you mean my avatar, i have no clue hehe.

very well produced clear production. i like that distorted guitar.
add some more reverb on the main lead or put the amp env release of the lead a bit higher

Ah cheers Renco .

glad you liked it.

Anymore? .


Posted by RickyM on Nov-18-2004 22:24:

Superbly produced song!!

PLease lose that lead though - its way too bland for this song! Change the lead and you have got a masterpiece!


Posted by Sunquest on Nov-18-2004 22:25:

mmmmm how did i miss this
the quality (mastering) is fucking excellent, only thing i dont like is that synth u got that goes up and down (from the original) 2 much reverb on that, its not sharp enough if u know what i mean :P
i looooooooove the pads part, in the middle, i like it more than the original, but the synths im afraid need a little work
keep @ it boys


Posted by Timothy on Nov-18-2004 22:57:

Die strings in de break klinken erg lekker. Als je die melodie in de break toevoegd, probeer eens de filter van die malstrom ( of welke synth jullie ook gebruikt hebbben ) vanaf 0 langzaam helemaal vol open te draaien.

De intro was erg spectaculair maar de middensectie is wat minder helaas. Het is te gewoontjes imho.

En doe a.u.b iets aan die synth die rond 2:00 geintroduceerd word.

Goed gedaan jullie twee. Ik ben benieuwd naar jullie volgende nummers
