I like it but it's missing something to drive the tension it seems to want to create. The best example I could come up with is the scene in the gay bar from the film, Traffic, when the music drops climaxes and drops into this contrapuntal cadence between the drums and the TB-303.

Not that you should emulate Fat Boy Slim (or let me hijack your production, for that matter), but I kept wanting that drive that didn't come on your changes.



Just start the video around 5:00 to get to what I'm trying to speak to.

If you can't hear this mix distorting then I don't know what you're trying to do. Perhaps you like it, but I seriously recommend you lower the master volume and stop limiting so harshly. You'll hear a whole lot of problems open up.

Put an end to the loudness war. Don't limit or compress your mixdown until mastering; leave the master channel alone.

Contact me for mastering.

This is madness. I haven't heard EDM like it. Who knew subtleties could be so banging? Your handling of vocals is top stuff, as usual.

However, this isn't something that I personally would listen to. Still, I appreciate the obvious effort.

The picture gave me a chuckle

I must concur . Everything sounds crushed fella.

For tension use fx. Reverb, delay and Bit crushing may help here.

I like the sparsity up until about 2:00 minutes, once the other elements are added it gradually becomes really squished. It has a good flow to it but the ending is filled up too much and all the elements seemed crushed together.
