State of Matter - I Can Smell Your Blood As My Machetti Pierces Your Muscle Tissue (pg. 2)

I just LOVE those synths melodies and pads!! :eyespop:

But, there's some other thins that makes that it doesn't reach quite to the top imo!

Perc and bass.

- Perc doesn't have any spark in them, they just go on and on... I'm VERY picky with percussion! :o For me to give this song a top grade, I would like to have complete new perc.

- Bass, sounds cheap and thin. Doesn't like it at all. Imo it needs a "fuller" sound, like in the AvB remix of ATRC (example).

But the melodies/synths are Great! :D

As always, my personal opinion...

very cool track, love the melody, synths.

Pretty awesome, would love a mp3 version of this for my playlist :P

very good track! an overall nice feeling in the song :D
like the way that it's built, very pro. but if i was you, i'd
try to get Starlight Requiem released rather than this one.
awesome work :)

Thanks for all the comments everybody, appreciate the praise and the criticism. A lot of comments about the bass, I had a heavier bassline in there but it was slowing down the flow of the track. I wanted the melody to just glide and float, and with the already heavily compressed kick it was just too much, so the bassline is there more for the sound than the feeling.

Im pushing for this and starlight requiem to be on the same vinyl, dunno how big of a chance I have of that happening, but Im going to try. Should be sending out promos Saturday.

this track is awesome, the melody and pads are excellent

i prefer it to requim, i think the melody in requim is too loud and raw, over powers the kick and bass

this structure is just right, i really like it and will be playing it in my guest mix this saturday :D

heh i am downloading as we speak :) i won't share them though, don't worry. i'll leave a comment after i've done some listening.
State of Matter
Thanks for all of the comments everybody.

John: Nice, is it a streamed show that I could listen in to or is it at a club?

And yeah, Requiem has some harshness that I'm trying to work out of it, its very very hard to master these humongous saw pads. Thats kind of why I chose to work with softer sawpads in the background for Sapphire.

cant wait to hear your updated version of 'Azure Symphony', thats my favourite tune, out of the ones on the site.

Tweak it and release it, its an EPIC!

I will definitely push for the release of Azure Symphony once it is reworked.

Been listening to ur stuff a lot mate and really like it all. This one is by far the best out of the lot. I think your productions suit the more laid back sounds of Azure and Sapphire than the more energetic Starlight Requiem, tho they all sound equally well produced. Keep it up mate, you will go far.

That's one crazy title dude...
