Arctic Breeze - Avalanche (Original Mix)

Arctic Breeze - Avalanche (Update Mix)

It has got nothing to do with any other tracks with the same name, some guy told me the name was taken by Yahel, but it's happend before and most likely happend again :)

Edit: I have uploaded an updated mix of the track due to some requests of a high quality version. Just tweaked the bassdrum slightly, it was too dry and adjusted the filter on the bass. The start was a bit harsh. The update is 224kbps, aprox 15 mb.

Good bass but again make it mure punchy.
Nice riffs on the first buildup.
303's are too light for my taste :p but I make hard acid some i'm prolly worng.
That riff synth, replace it from time to time.
Make it different.
I don't like the chihats.
Just took a look and the low bass freqs are really low.
I think thats why you don't have any punch.
Nice lead but the start of it sounds like an intro since it's too repitetive and not like a lead. after those 4 patrens it's really good.
Clap is too low on the volume.
Overall nice track 4/5

- At 0:25 and 4:00 and 6:42, that effect is screaming "i'm fruity!", maybe add more channel fx on it or use an other effect..I didn't realy like it.
- IMO you should make the percs louder..and maybe add some more.
- The "break" on 2:22 is nice.
- I liked that sound in the background around 2:31.
- IMO the bass needs to be punchier and louder.
- At 5:22 when all the elements of the track suppose to give you the "rush"...I don't know..they don't. Maybe it's the bass.
- Good melody! :)
Overall..I like it :) 7/10

Could someone please hand over a more punchier bassdrum? :)
I know the takeoff part didn't end up how I wanted it to be, I got tired of playing around with it and decided to just finish it off.
But I'm quite satisfied with the result. Thanks for your comments.

np :)
About the bass, I'm using a bass from a Soundfont bank I've downloaded from HammerSound.
The bank is called HS TB-303...it's description:
quote:
17 different 'instruments' sampled from the Roland TB-303 analog synthesizer. This synthesizer is used a lot in 'modern' dance music / techno mostly for bass-lines and arpeggiators. The 'typical' TB-303 sound has a closing filter with plenty of resonance.

EQ it punchier... boost smaller bandwidths on the parametric EQ (small) gives the punch in that frequency range... scroll around the sweepable freq selector and find what range is punchy and zero in on what you need to boost. :)

Wow mate... the main melody on this is incredible (very driving and engaging and the saws sound great)!! :) I love the acidlines... I'd change the kick anyway... it sounds like it would fit a German Tunnel Trance track, but not an anthem like this (try a Robert Nickson style kick... nice and punchy with some good lowend release). and perhaps a more powerful clap (try adding reverb to your clap and then gating it.. oh yeah and play the clap at a higher pitch :) that sounds phat).. a punchier bassline would help too... try using the decay and envolope modulation on the synth with the lowpass filter cutoff... that way it plucks on every note... and put a bitcrusher on it to accentuate the punch, kinda like what Fictivision does (it sounds raw as hell! I guarantee you)

Try putting a good drumloop over that to accentuate the high hats... since that area sounds a bit empty. You can probably pinch one off a track, and you may have to filter it to fit nicely in the mix.

This tune has potential to be a monster jam! You certainly have the skills to be the next Terry Bones!
Digital Aura
yeah! what he said ^

Very Robert Nickson! Maybe gerry should remix it...he's got some great ideas!:D

I don't think the melody line was all that great...i mean it IS driving... but, cmon, 2 notes for a melody?? Not gonna happen! LOL:cool: It got a bit better after the break cuz more stuff was happening besides the "melody" line.

Still...I liked it a lot! :stongue:

gerrycueto
maybe I should remix it...

the melody is great... it's just in between a dull structure so you can't really feel its greatness.
ilovetrance18
the melody is too busy for me, but it's just personal taste,

i like the kick, it needs to give it to some more punch, though

i would change the whole bassline or make it nore driving, make some kickass sub-bass like above & beyond do, really moving ones i mean,

need to do some massive atmosphere to it too, need more effects,

overall i like the way, this turning out, just work on it some more,

keep it up, mate
