Hey takkra,

This title you have here OWNS haha. The dirty little bitch is clearly audible in the track, nice horny voicesample haha.

Overall quite an original tech trancy track, a bit minimalistic but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Had my girl with me tonight and she sat on my lap while we played your track and it worked wonders I can tell you

You have developed an own style quite quickly and that is a big plus mate, keep it up!

I'm no connoseur of tech-trance... but I must say that it kinda grows on you.

The female samples worked well. The other elements were definately a feast of technological triumph in metropolis music dwellers. Gritty and groovy at the same time -- it somehow felt more tech than trance to me... but I still liked it.

I can also see how this genre could be dance-floor friendly. Like I said, I'm relatively new to this genre of trance, but I'm digging it from time to time.

Makes me want to grab a dirty-little-bitch and funk out at a club!

Review

Intro - Kick is muddy but phatt. Not a fan of the whitenoise effect from vanguard, maybe ditch that?. Nice synth that comes in, my sorta beats here these days . Percussion work is a bit light, could maybe pump some heavier percs here. Not a bit fan of the vocal work imo.

Breakdown - Guitar synth is ok here, i think u need more variation here n there with elements.

Outro/Other - Variation wise, well presented and i like the lackof effects, i dont think tracks like this suit many effects.

Conclusion/Other - Great stuff, check your PM

I like what you did with the beat.
The bass is really cool.
I don't like the white noise.
Woot good sutters
The vocals are nice.
Nice melody @ 2:21.
3:41 good 303 like melody.
I think you need a sub bass.
Good track overall.

7/10
Omer.

bump!

hey mate. i will check this once im on a computer that has decent speakers - not ones built into a lcd monitor.. lol

Posted by Dj Cola on Mar-10-2006 15:54:

damn this is grimy!
cool track nontheless, the synth at 3:40 something is cool a bit anthem like to me ^^.
the track moves a bit slow for me but still has drive and stuff happening so i dont get bored, just a bit monotounus.. just like real techno .

i think a deep sub bas would really fit this good, to get that really groovy feelin..

well awesome track dude . cool stuff that you found your style allready!

Posted by Takkra on Mar-10-2006 21:30:

whoah.

Thanks for the listeners everyone !
I could ditch the whitenoise from vanguard yes.. since I didnt alter it much and.. well it just sucks kinda..I needed it to fill the track up a bit in the beginning.. im glad most of you liked the title hehe.. also glad that most of you liked the vocal .. im happy everyone around here is a bit openminded..
I think I really found my own style its nice to hear that people think that also..
jippie

Interesting track. It could use a little more percussion work and like the others said the white noise doesn't fit so well. The kick is a little muddy, but it fits I'd say. A sub bass would really get this track pumping I feel. You've progressed a lot since you first started good job. I'm really liking that sound at 3:40. Good work

yea the whitenoise thing is annoying me now all you guys said that hehe.. ill work on the percussion need some new oneshot packs..
thanks for listening and glad you liked the song

Posted by EtherealSL on Mar-11-2006 08:49:

hey takkra,

nice work here, some crits:

not liking your kick sample... vocal effects are cool... the synth is downright dirty, but it sounds a bit filtered... would be nice to have it sound really distored, i'm thinking of the lead from "ferry corsten - punk'd"

i don't hear an openhh.

got some potential here... keep it up

Posted by djglacial on Mar-11-2006 11:00:

You should use proper chord progression in that 8 beat bar lead and brass sound. If the brass was snapped to the same chords as the lead, this track would be bumpin.

Otherwise I like it. I think the muddy kick sounds good... but layer something harder/cleaner underneath it to make it punch you in the ears more perhaps?

Posted by Takkra on Mar-11-2006 11:12:

hi ethreal thanks for listening .. the lead isnt filtered.. but ill try eq'ing and putting on more distortion.. hanks for the pointers
djglacial thanks for listening and the idea of that chordprogressing.. but I cant really change it for the 8bar lead.. or else the notes would have to be different and "unfitting" ill see what I can do about the brass(=simple saw) lead

Posted by kopi_luwak on Mar-12-2006 04:06:

I will listen to it and will give you a full review tonight man .
Kopi =o.

Posted by richg101 on Mar-13-2006 09:54:

yo takkra!

sori for the late reply

this sounds great. nice overall sound. nice and clear. i think the vocal somehow ruins the cool sound the track has. it has a electro sound to it with a nice dark trance sound to it aswell.

i would turn some of your percs up in the mix a bit - make them more of a feature. also i would cut way the main lead/bassy synth everynow and then so the track varies a bit more.

3.40 - that new synth kind of doesnt do it for me. maybe add some efx to it/transpose it down and lower the volume. then i think it will sit better in the mix.

this is very original stuff here rico. with the right tweeking im sure the track will be really great. i can imagine this working well on an electro set or as a track on 'club elite sessions'.

definately your best rico

Dirty. Very Dirty.

I like what you've done with the female vocal sample.

Great layering around 4:22.

I'm with rich on bringing out the percs, though. This is tech trance, the percs should be a bit more prominent.

Posted by iloop on Mar-13-2006 23:00:

its got some nice original elements and arrangement, but definately not something i like to listen to on a regular bassis... i think its just not my style. I think the kick and percs could be brought up a bit cause some of the mid elements overdominate in this track, but otherwise fine...

Posted by Takkra on Mar-18-2006 13:00:

Hey guys, im so sorry I reply so late.. school is very busy these days.. ive got anoter testperiod coming up boohoo

Ok everyone convinced me I should bring the percs out more! thanks for that im really glad most of you liked the track! thanks everyone !
