Like I said in a different thread, I picked this up because I felt I could use it, which I did, and it wound up putting me to sleep.
The only thing that gives it any sense of development are its two (?) breaks, but even that has all the functional effect of an optical illusion.
Maybe if he trimmed things down by several minutes, I would be somewhat more hesitant to assign this as one of the most boring tracks of the year.
Until then, this is one of the most boring tracks of the year.

Well I'd love to hear what it is those of you talking about "doing something" with this track is that makes it quality - because on it's own it's a giant piece of garbage. |
I don't think there's anything to necessarily dislike about this track, so I wouldn't at all be inclined to call it garbage.
When I decided to pick it up, I felt it had all the right elements that fit the bill I was looking for, which was a steadily moving, percussion dominated track that would provide a useful foundation for more interesting things to come. So although it doesn't fare off particularly well as a stand-alone production, I felt it would prove contextually meaningful and useful- though I don't at all suggest that this somehow elevates its inherent level of quality to a whole new level.
The problem I noticed in using it this way is that I don't have much material that's quite as sparse and uneventful as this, so it stands out as some awkwardly placed section of heavy drums and light background effects...so it doesn't even work in the way I had hoped.
If I do play it, I don't at all let it run its course, fading out of it after the last break.
