on wings of wax (downtempo/prog)

A track i finished a little while ago. Ended up being 14 minutes long so i split it into two songs 1 and 2. This is the second and more interesting half. Enjoy

Nice intro, the rain and the thunder sounds good. Like the subtle whisper. A really soft track. Good job!

Hi Leighton_Tyler

I just finished checking out your track. I must admit that is a very nice and mellow track! So what did you use to produce this?

Very nice work and well put together.

Thanks for the positive feedback! This track was a long time in the making. Started it, musta been over a year ago - back when I was using FL. Constructed a pretty good mix of the track and just kind of left it alone. Then a few months ago i loaded it into Abelton Live (what i now use for production) and overhauled it..added some some new elements to the track and it came out nicely. All software/vst's. The background thunder and rain is ripped from "sounds of the rainforrest" hehe. Adds a nice touch to the track i thought. Glad you enjoyed it.

just having a listen now; thoughts as I hear them

good thunder sample and subtle perc and string into - everything sounds more atmospheric with a rain sample (you could loop it a bit better though)

keep thinking this is gunna go into intelligent/jazzy d+b

it kinda does with that bassline.

like the chilled out nature so far.

(oh, you got a "turn up" from me - this is mastered pretty quiet though =) )

getting bored at 2:40 though, needs to keep the build to keep the interest.

I'd loose 16/32 bars there.

fuck me this is quiet.

break is good - but could be so much more if you condensed it and had some lush strings/pads in there - break goes on too long before breakbeat comes in.

this track has potential if you cut it up a little and emphasise some of the elements - like the bassline in the main section.
