Hey folks

It's an electro house style track from Nem.

Just gave it a go to see what I came up with. Anyways, thought I would share the final result and here it is.

Take it for what it is, it's not what I usually do but I had some fun doing it.
Patience ran a bit thin in the end but hey...

Electrononsense Click on ME!

Cheers
Nemster

Tja Karl!
Bassline is good, even though i expected it to be more driving after this 1:15 break..
Great percussions, subtle but effective, sounds very wide too.

+3 mins, now its taking shape nice pads and soft synths.
Kinda cheesy vocal, but fits in the track.

hmm, not sure im liking that lead, you play it on very high notes, disturbing imo
This would have done much better more minimal, skipping that lead and maybe add some more strings and subtle synths. Thats my personal style though... I like how it developed before the lead came in, really great there.

this is cool

real nice original and bouncy sound you have mate.

great rolling bass and warm kick. id like more slap in the highs of the kick a bit.. a boost at 3k maybe?

gated sine is cool id prefer it one octave lower tho.

overall a great piece

if you could just re render with the sine one octave lower and in 320 and send me a link id really like to play this in my next set... if not then a 320 will do:0)

no crits on this other than what i said. very good balance and sound.

HI nem!

Nice track. did nt expect you to do this kind style. But i like the track. But i would like to know how it would be with saw wave sound with a dely on right side and left it dry on the left???

Cheers

excellent clarity from the start.
nice kick, nice hats....
drumroll little cheesy....
not crazy about that synth that comes in. not enough presence to it. for how strong ur percussion and kick is, the synth seems to be trailing behind.
i think if u through the that dark synth through a bunch of processors, compression, excitment, with some stereo imaging...it would sound kick ass.
really like those light chords go'n on there, nice touch.
not liken that piano at all...if thats what it is, not to sure.
such a clear productioin u got.
some sounds are kinda cheesy, but the great percussion work and shear clarity of ur track help to bypass that.

Good bass and kick, but that high synth that comes in just annoing my ears. Otherwise, a nice chill track!

Hey Nem,

Really nice work, an overall solid production. You especially succeeded in energy, you've got a great bouncy bassline hook.

Everyone is mentioning the high saw lead, but I think it mostly works except for its final note. It just ends up too piercing, perhaps a faster fadeout would help. Or a wider sound and/or ping-pong delays might help soften it up.

I also find the rimshot to be a little too pronounced, especially considering how far it's panned to the left.

But seriously, excellent otherwise.

It's a bit 90's, I would put it under progressive trance, not electro house. Nice bass line but it went no where and the builds are a bit cheese (snare sample a bit old??), rythm is nice but blue-balls like hell.

I want more but don't get it?! :-(

The 90's are the new 80's

the 90's are not the new 80's the 90's are all sample-base sounds. The 80's have cool elements that make the sound raw... i.e. sawtooth wave in its pure fat form... the trick is to mix NOW with 80's, have that fat bass line but with more cut-up sharper sounds... i.e. leave some gaps in music, dont blur out your song with a pad like a blur tool in photoshop. you need to take the best from both worlds and i would say stay away from the 90's

Firstly...

I don't normally take critique badly or personally, but Ithink you have missunderstood me a little.

Take it for what it is, it's not what I usually do but I had some fun doing it.

When I said "The 90's are the new 80's" it was tongue in cheeck to suggest that whilst I new it sounds both cheesy and unoriginal (One of the reasons why I opted for a Jam and Spoon sample) it was a mocking way of saying it's ahead of it's time but not... if you get what I mean.

Secondly...

Whilst I know there is no bad intent with your comment you are severly wrong, so don't worry... don't want to turn this into a flame war but I feel I must answer.

Are you really telling me that Dance music in the 80's wasn't sample driven? Where you even there?
Dance music almost came to be because of the sampler or hold up lets have a think, ah yes, the DJ who used to drop the breaks of records, kind of like sampling but more skill involved.

You must have heard lines like...
Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Na Nineteen...
House House House House Nation...
Woooo.... Yeah..... Woooo..... Yeah.... (Sampled from Lynn Thomas the female preacher, Think - From the second James Brown's Funky People album). Used by tons of copy cats.

Let us not forget that the 90's gave us some amazing trance tracks.
Cafe Del Mar - Energy 52
Gouryella (Ferry Corsten made some of his finest tracks in the 90's)
Push actually wrote strange world in the 90's
The list goes on.
It was also a fabulous time to be a DJ and to be honest, these days the enthusiasm in dance music has gone. The crowds don't have the same full on hedonistic outlook and by comparison it's dull these days.
Trance has disapeared up it's own arse for the time being and the clubbers are bored.

The 90's also gave us the Prodigy, various Breaks artists (Although a lot of their music is based on 80's Electo, or samples of it (Which in turn was based on samples too).
Massive Attack are heavily based on samples although they are masters of making it sound natural.

The reality is that the 80's could be held responsible for poor/over use of the sample and it wasn't till the 90's that we grew up a little.

When I write my music I always have intent. And with this project it was just a question of seeing if I could rather than anything else.

Don't get me wrong, I still love trance, still love DJing, I didn't get offended by your post but I did feel I had to answer. No bad blood I hope.

Cheers
Nem
