Hey dude,
U have improved a lot since your last track, this one sounds way better done, the build up it's better, the FX are very good, and the cut offs are great. Also I think you are geting your style .
The only thing I noticed,, it's, that instead to decrease/increase the velocitie of the synths, you should do the job with a filter, Low/High, will make the synth take a new sense .
Very good work keep it up mate .
Kopi =o.

Not really my sort of thing, but well produced!

The only thing I can spot that's maybe wrong is that about 3:00 the synths get a bit to loud and drown out the rest of the track. It might just be too much reverb or delay.

Thanks Kopi and Nautica for your replies, Ill have a good look at the synth, and then ill mod it, again . damn this keeps being fun.

Anyone else who'd like to review my soundfile ?

Good loud/killer bass,

Good funky bassline cept for the velocity/note bend towards the end of it.

Towards the second half of the track, the kick sounds to be completely drowned out by the other synths (that become louder ?).

Nice use of Fruity though, bass is (bleep) powerful.

Do not know where you may take this track in terms of adding sounds, but you can throw in a catchy lead (not overdone, not cheesy) to go along with the bassline maybe, to make the track more interesting in the later minutes.

This track is an interesting one. Heaps of changes through it. The bass line is especially good.

lol love the electric guitar break.

2.50 love how that poly morphs in. Great layering.

3.00 the bass drum could be harder. The bass has such a huge sound, I think the bass drum needs to be a bit louder to match. Also, the hihats seem drowned out by the bass.

This track is short. I would love to hear a longer version.

Great work Takkra, I am impressed!!

- i like the percs/hats, they remind me of some old max graham productions
- the change in synths that play that main melody works very nicely.
- i like the atmosphere of that break at ~ 2:20
- i felt you needed some longer elements in the background, like a nice interesting pad or strings.
- you should implement a more intense buildup, maybe with some simple dj effects, like looping ever 4 bars, then 2, etc.

Nice track man, I like your style, but I think it needs a bit more variation. mayB a longer version will be better for this style, because then you are abled to stretch the break and get a huge build up for the climax, that is what I miss in you track a real climax.

yea.. Im making some research for some tension, but I cant make any good snare rolls etc.. the filterwork in the climax is a bit lazy done too here but th�t improved.
