[Melodic Psy] Lakeus - Bossa Nueva

Hey...

This is my new melodic psy track...140 bpm, little bit Infected Mushroom-style. Yesterday I was glad to hear that it was accepted in Cybernetica�s TA psy mix. All comments are more than welcome and I�ll promise to comment your track if you comment mine.

Lakeus - Bossa Nueva ( 128 kbps )

then right click and "save as target"

Cheers, Lakeus

This is seriously awesome Lakeus.

-The chiming tones are exquisit. The initial chord struck me as interesting & I was captured & taken into the tune...
-The beat is tough / energetic.
-the bass seems muffled. I like the groove though.
1.35 chimes come back in.
1.58 the howling sound in the background in mysterious. It confuses the tune bit; Out of tune a touch, i like it. ...nice transitioning..
2.29 i like the decending high synth
2.40
2.50
3.15 sweet tribal break beat.
3.36......
3.40 the high frequency pads come in a bit too fast. I love the sound, adds a dramatic edge.
3.50 the pads are great.

4.30 awesome high synths
4:40 the sudden beat comes as a surprise
5:10 ok, im digging this. euphoric high chimes to the left, nice mids to the right & high female type pads in the middle. The whole sound of the tune is really full now.
6:20 ....great ending.

I liked the layout of the tune.

The hihats seemed distorted & overwhelmed in places.

Mate, Id love to hear a high quality verson of this. I cant wait to here this in the TA Psy Producers mix!

Mate, really enjoyed this. Excelent piece of production was gonna go more indepth but it's all covered above.

Excelent though, really class.

The intro is really nice.
It sounds middle eastern.
I like the beat but the bass is a bit unclear.
I reached to the break.
I like the atmosphere you have in the break.
Cool arp.

I like it.
8/10

Returning the compliments.

Good quality track.
It's really nice to hear when someone does something different here and this fits the bill nicely. Just proof that you can do what you want and make it sound really good.

Top notch mate, keep up the good work.

Cheers
Nem

Hey...

Thanks Nem for your feedback! I�ve tried to keep it original...

Cheers, Lakeus

Kind of annoying high tones at 0:26. It's really piercing.

Cool tribal tech feel when the kick comes in.

4:40 is really fun.

This will be an excellent addition to the Psy Producers' mix. Good job.


Posted by iloop on Mar-03-2006 22:41:

this track has some nice elements, but overall it loses me because the theme just shifts so many different places and doesnt leave me with a memorable melody... bassline/percs are nicely done and intro melodic progression/vibe is nice, but doesn't stay long...


Posted by Lakeus on Mar-04-2006 16:25:

Thanks guys for your comments... I appreciate them!

Cheers, Lakeus

Love is in the air

hey! cool tune! its really pumping with a .. ethnic (?) twist!
i really like those sounds in the background and the flutes that come in is pretty cool. there is some kind of clipping (?) percs in the background, they kind of fit.. i wouldnt be so sure about them..
the really cool thing in this is how everything fits together!

ah the beloved bongos! . i love those, great work. and the sudden twist to an emotional touch from a pumping and hard style! lovely!

your break reminds me of the metal gear solid theme (oh that magical theme) your pluck sounds doesnt fit in with the rest of the tune i think, i would go with something supersawish but this is really good anyhow and gives the track mystiqe wich serves the tune more then anything else .

great work.

Hey,

I like the intro a lot. Nice melodies with a kinda medieval feel to it.
1:06 ... nice bassline thing. Maybe you could make your hihat section a little more interesting.
I like the overall atmosphere here. You got some great layering of sounds. Your sounds work together very well.
Your track flows by just nicely. 3 minutes have passed and I didnt get bored at one single moment.
Good breakdown then. The beat stops maybe a little too abruptly, but thats only a small detail.
Nice arpeggio melody, cool sounds in the background. Now this reminds me a lot of Paulo Der Munoz' tracks. I'm a big fan of him so take this as a compliment ... about the mastering issue, most has been mentioned already and I dont need to get into detail about it anymore I think.

Really good job, this would get an 8.5/10 on my personal scale. Keep it up!


Posted by Four_On_Four-er on Mar-05-2006 04:31:

Thanks for the words...

I like the introduction as well. I've kinda been out of the loop lately, so I'll try to comment as best as I can.

The buzzy effects are good. The medival themes are mixed with the march of sci-fi noises with psy-ish clarity that's demanding my thorough attention.

Love the clicky percussive element you added 1/3 of the way through. Good move.

Congos are good. Similar to the "Metal Gear Comment", I could see this working for a first-person-Tom-Clancy Arabic Dessert theme. Well done.

The transition to the tail end of the break seemed a bit rough. Maybe a few more moments of cross-fading could repair some of it.

The arpy stuff at the last 1/3 was very inspiring. Good musicianship here. I really do like this track.

Sometimes I feel like the kick and some bass elements could be brought up front a tad more, but that's just me.

On the outro, I have to say that that kick sample is pretty dope!


Posted by Four_On_Four-er on Mar-05-2006 04:37:

As a matter of fact... you have any other tracks in this style?


Posted by funkysouls on Mar-05-2006 06:46:

nice..


Posted by Lakeus on Mar-05-2006 17:20:

Hey... first of all thanks for all of your comments!!!

Dj Cola: I like the beat very much also, ethnic stuff is always really cool!!

Cybernetica: I�m gonna work still little bit with the track when I�ve got the time but I�m already pretty satisfied with it.

Four_On_Four-er: Thanks for your comments, if you would like to hear another track of similar style check out this track which I made last autumn.

Lakeus - 140 bpm

Cheers, Lakeus

listening:

nice intro synth.. nice percussions, nice drive.. cool effects..

cool break, wonders what it will lead too..

4:38 it comes too sudden.. no transition, nothing..

and after that i feel it gets a bit repetetive.. it kinda lead to a bunch of notes playing with a bass and percussions., and which none is interesting to pay attention too.. but gets better when u introduce the arab sound..

very nice work.. could use some adjustements imo..

what do u make music with?


Posted by canadian didjer on Mar-07-2006 02:00:

eastern.... good driving start. powerful....

whoh ramping acid synth around 1:10. into cool driving minimalism...

this track is ver rich, though i think the verb is alittle toooo much... maybe turn it down

OOOHHHH!!! the drums around 3:23.... kewl

relaxed pad coool gates after 4:00 and tiny arpy... me likes

this actually is kinda uplifting heh... don't know if your going for that sound but... if so... you nailed it
