[psy/hard] Xelphore - The Synthetic (320kbps full)

Been working on this for about 3-4 days on and off. Sounds like a kind of hardstyle and psy blend.

Whoever can guess where the vocal sample is from gets a cookie.

Hey,

commenting as I listen

The kick seems a little dry to me. Might get a little juicier in combination with the bass.
1:08 - getting evil here. Great dirty sound... and some nice FX inserted too.
1:51 - awesome lead there. Its a little too much in the background if you ask me.
And now the acidline.. dear god. Close to pure ownage now. That dirty, filthy bitch of an acidline.. I love it
We definately got something in common in our taste :P
4:50 - thats a Vanguard preset, that "ticking" hihat line. Maybe change it a little so that its not that obvious :P
Deeep layers. very very dark, and somehow synthetic. And the FX!!!
Holy shit. This sounds just like a tune I've always wanted to make. ...what are you using to produce? I want to remix it, NOW

About the contras:
This stuff is kinda overdriven. You might spend some more time on a little mastering. Nothing really big though.

Awesome work. And I really mean it!

ok first of all, im not really into psy, but the hardstyle part speaks alot more for me love the fx!
great filtered synth in the start! nice acid too.. very nice acid! how did you make that one? vocal sounds like a sample from startrek, with that borg-girl ? ah yea that melody is sweeet! great eery pads! no cool melody after the break? that sux man very anti climax still a sweeet piece of work

*shifty eyes*

Yeah I kinda see your point. I threw that in towards the end when my CPU was so overloaded that it took 2 minutes to do anything so I was feeling kinda lazy. Guess I'll work on hiding that a bit. Maybe I could fade it in later on so it gets less noticable, and then tweak it a bit.

FL5
Z3ta
Vanguard (well obviousely )
couple of 3oscs (for the sub-basses and fx)
couple of wasps (for the acid lines)
crystal (for some atmosphere)

If you're serious about making a remix, you could PM me if you want me to sample some elements for you (unless you just wanna make it all from scratch )

Mastering isn't my forte, but I'll see what I can do.

I was kinda going for that cliche psy structure where you build and build and don't reveal the climax until the very end.

Wow. I'm definitely starting to get into this Psy stuff.

Was never huge into it before, but TA members continue to amaze me.

Great job man, love it. And, as a self-admitted geek, I loved the Borg queen sample.
