i'm not going to reiterate the overwhelming suggestion(s) on changes for this track, but would like to commend you on a nice chilly track. The second your track hit (i loaded like 10 TA tracks into winamp and started reading a book) my head popped up.. I'm a sucker for nicely done instrumental intros.
Sunquest is always a whore about melodies, seeing as how that's his specialty. I disagree with him on this one, what you've got works great. Just fix a few of those things, and see if adding that guitar he suggested works or not. I look forward to a finished copy for sure, in the meantime I'm gonna kick it with this.
As Ron said, you are one of my more fav.s on these boards =)
*edit*
The last half of the track, the melody stays dark.
I would have liked to see the melody regress back to what it was doing in the 3:30 area, where it wasn't continuously spirling downward, but the notes would resound and change and lift up a bit. I'm not saying make this a happy happy track, its nice dark! But I liked some what was going on at 3:30, and again at 4:48! |

As mentioned before, the beat/bass section should be a lot louder in the mix. And after a while it starts to get a bit repetitive, cause there's no melody or so to keep it going. Maybe u can introduce some xtra sounds.
But nice work overall, keep it up. |

ooOK! i think i understand what you are saying about the 3:30 area. i actually have that going on throughout the song, but it's mixed really low to be a more subconscious thing (i like to let some things be mixed so low you don't consciously hear them even though IMO it still affects the listener) and then at that 3:30 part i used the pitch shift tool in cubase to bring it up an octave for that part and you can hear it because it's not drowned by the guitarish sound, but i'll see about expanding on that part by learning how to play it on the (real) guitar and seeing where i go from there. thanks for the comments!

Good track with good atmosphere.
I'd say the reverb on the guitar is a tad too loud. It's a bit too wet. Great sound apart from that.
Nice breakbeats, a bit thin tho for the real good break .
It's more like ambient, and the ambient part of this is quite good :)
Percussion I find a tad too loud and dry. Highs sound very sharp.. I think too much low is cut..?
Same melody now for quite a while... takes a bit too long I'm now waiting for a change.
At 5 mins I feel like something big is coming now. Or a break.
Too bad nothing really happens. Only the bass line is a bit variable and some fx have appeared.
A bit too static, but the synth sounds and guitar in this one are very good. Feels good to listen too. Good work! |

Okay I've listened to this track like 10 times now. Really haunting kind of spacey sound. I had to come back and post. Good job on this one.
