Interesting intro. Sounds kinda housey. I like it.

Glitching effects after 1:00 are really cool and detailed.

What are these samples from? They're very odd.

When things start stomping, they really get stomping. Lots of trippy sounds all over the place, with a lot of drive. Well done.

I kind of felt like some of the percussions focused around one general frequency range, and it wasn't a particularly appealing one, IMO. They certainly contributed to the dark feel, but I felt that a bit more brightness would have been nice.

Definitly an intresting track, but not really my kind of psy.
You've managed to put together some cool things and its really tripping and sounds welldone.
But the track is nothing special..

Anyways, very well produced.

I love your track merlin, still listen to it quite often and i will definitly play it out when i get the chance to play some banging psy.
Would love to hear more psy like that from you

I love this track, it's my favorite one I have produced, and I have never really felt a love for my music like I do for this one...

I kinda tried to sorta make this track in the same vain as merlin...Dark melodies and hard kick drum.

It looks like I nailed the production value, but getting everybody's taste is never easy.


Thanks for lilstening.

This has heaps of awesome elements Frost. I take my hat of too you bro, you've done an exquisite job on Fx & sounds

1:35 cool. ...funky
2:30 Very enjoyable sound

This tune nearly gets a 10/10 but I think you still need to refine a couple of areas IMO.

-The starting drums are weak. I compare them to Hallucinogens Demention of his lone deranger CD, a good reference for you. They are similar, but just not as crisp or powerful.

-Thicken up some of those insane pads a bit

I love what you do to your samples dood. Freaken Brilliant

I think this surpases Merlin in many ways. This is a great progression in your style. Kickarse mate

Thanks for feedback...

The starting drums are weak on purpose, I thought they'd make the later drums seem more stompy...

Do you guys think that's a bad idea? I like it...

Hey,
long time since I heard the last track from you..

Nice glitchwork in the beginning.
hi frequencies are very dominant on the percussion.
1:00 has some nice percussion work going on. Jex mentioned it: they are very detailed.
1:40 nice new synthline.
2:00 is trippy. I wonder how you created that soundscape.
Then a very weird melody, even for your standards this is extremely twisted Psy. The detuning every now and then is great!
One other thing I noticed, before I forget.. the kick seems to be too heavily compressed or somehow pushed away by the snare. Try to make the kick a more constant factor. It is a very hard kick already, I think a slightly softer version with a bit more balance in the mix would work better.
4:40 nice sample choice, I wonder what your sources are.
And were onto an even more crazy ending.
Sick stuff, I dig.

This is maybe your least accessible track but it features a lot of detail and funny elements to discover. Great work on this and the glitchy percussion parts and the detailed melodies.
One thing however I noticed about your mix, it seemed a little empty to me. Some of the elements are thinner than they actually should be. There seems to be some kind of gap in the lower mids which could be filled by a deep and dark background synth riff. I can not listen at full volume now (it is late at night here, the neighbours would kill me if I turned up more), so I might be wrong about the mix. But when I compare it to other tracks it still stands out as somehow thin. Maybe the minimalist approach is a nice experiment but it left me somehow longing for more.

I think the snare issue was caused by me not knowing how to master correctly...I think the compressor did something to my mix that was not bad...If I ever get this released I'l hire a pro to do the master.

As for the lower mids...I don't usally like puttin them in, I think it takes away attention from the kickdrum....So much psy trance doesnt focus enough on the bassline and kick relation ship. But then there is also, I am using software, which is known for being thin.

I'm hoping that these issues can be fixed in mastering. I know a guy mastering guy that runs his tracks through analog gear. Maybe that will help me out...


By the way Cyber, I heard bits of your album...Nice stuff, FIrst Contact is my fav.
