Nice tune,

Like:

- sounds used
- effects uses (delays, reverbs)
- transition into break
- Percussion
- Some nice melodies

Needs work:

- weak kick (maybe thats what you want)
- track structure
- play around with that riff that comes in at 1:40... whack a filter of your choice on it... and automate the cutoff. Because that riff was getting really repetitive and boring by 3:00... around with it.


good work mate
Teknoscaper.
This is tight.

My recommendations: Lose that melody loop thing that comes in at 1:40. Cut it completely, or do some max James Holden style compression. It sounds really bad. Leave the breakdowns as is, they rule.

Worq the bass. Make it a little more noticable, and you'll have a hella funkai tune.


Nice.

this is fan in tastic.
bassline is there but not quite?
but i like it like that.
love the atmosphere of the pads + progressions.
workin the music theory? :)
love the little reverse hats

only qualm is melodies. flat.
i think you can expand on them while remaining subtle.
hell, throw a few more in the background.

just suggestions. but love the work.

edit: what's with the names? lagoona, serengeti?

wow thanks guys.

yeh im gonna sit down now and work on something to fit that first melody to make it more interesting.

wade, ur right the highs are a little muddy, will fix that.

regarding the bass, yeh its extremely low in frequency, but i think it goes nicely.. sorta reminds me of Lemon 8 - 'NY NY' (not that it can compare or anything :p)

jaykue: dunno why lagoona, just thought of it and sounded okay. serengeti - huge wildlife park in africa, i think it suites the track hehe (gilmista actually thought of this one!)

I like it a lot.

Well done Jace.

Not heard any of your other tracks but this one is great. Not really my style to be honest but like it a lot :)

i like the theme.
reminds me of ferry's tagalog [fillipino] track titles.
just thought they may have held some significance to urself.

if ur still doing all this in floops,
i really don't think u'll need to be changin sequencer :)
jåcë

Wouldn't it be something more like if you're doing all this in FL, imagine what you can get out of a more professional sequencer?

but man. that means time out to relearn a new program's interface :(
i ain't a pro but slap me ears silly if jace's "serengeti" doesnt sound quite the pro production already.

serengeti does a little i guess coz im originally from sth africa
haha

yeh.. i dont really use fruity that much, just for melodies (using imported synth samples)

i do all my sequencing in acid pro and use a load of samples

moving onto reason soon though..
