Just listened to the track and like it. It's got a hard feel to it, but, yet, has a dark and almost progressive feel to it as well. Really like the bass, particularly.

Hey. The kick in this track is pretty thick and full. I'm loving the bass as well. Theres a slight touch of some mid 90s tech-house in there. This track is borderline techno as a whole though but good progressions. Honestly, I'd drop the vocals or have someone sing them because right now, they jsut seem somewhat out of place. If nothing else, just time sync them to make the vocals flow better with the song.

Cheers,
Zac

Hey, don't diss the Pubahs! Krafty Kuts has even used that acapella!

That's a fun track man. It's probably not going to find its way into DJ Tiesto's regular rotation, but it's absolutely the type of thing that's needed to spice up those monotonous hardstyle mixes.

listening to it here is my input.

first off not my style hehehe, but i'll try and give some feedback

i really like that synth that comes in around 3:30. it sounds really well made and the sound is crisp and nice.

i don't really like the synth that carries through out most of the tune. the one that first comes in a little before a minute into the track. sounds to me like a poorly made version of the synth in Tilt - The World Doesn't Know if you know that tune. maybe it is the difference in style or what, but i really think if you worked on that and made the sound better that it would help the tune along. i'm trying to think of why it doesn't sound right and it's hard to say (i don't have very good speakers hear at the moment hehehe ), but i don't think it's full enough.

i think anything else i would say would just come down to personal taste hehehe...so hopefully that was constructive and clear as far as what i was saying...

oh and also the percussion sounds good...maybe the reason the synth sounded funny was i felt like the percussion out did it...i dunno...

u mean the bass? i sidechained the bass' (external) filters and compressor with the kick as trigger.. it should be plenty full, may also be a bit too much on the hi's...

giva acapellas
besides from that bassline is great. vocals are great.
clap isnt my style but still i like harder claps.

the synth doesnt have the special feel if u know what i mean (maybe u dont) but other wise i like it! right through!

congrats on a great track

Posted by netroM on Sep-09-2005 19:50:

Pretty bad-ass track this one m8, lots of energy and kinda cool vocals

Posted by kopi_luwak on Sep-10-2005 02:01:

LOL, those vocals are out of synch and place imo!
The kick is a bit overcompressed IMO, but my opinion sux so take it serious .
In overall, nice hard track .
Kopi =o.

lol.. overcompressed was the sound i was going for anyway lol :P

but, the vocals are more or less synced with the tempo of the song, and they are at the "right place"

Posted by kopi_luwak on Sep-10-2005 02:16:

As u say it chief .
Kopi =o.

i actually really enjoyed listening to your song "sandwiches" and i think the vocals are fine... in fact it's hilarious in a good way.

i'm glad you are doing your own thing.

p.s.

p.p.s GOOD SONG!

Hey

Nice kick and percussion at the start, Percs that come in are cool, nice work with all the percussion here. Nice kick in effects, the bass is a bit mid and synthy (z3ta+) not my style. vocals are great lol, now that has came in the bass fits . The synth is arite too but im losing a bit of intrest. Its certainly a change of scene .
