Hey wuts up everyone,
Haven't been around here in a while, but this our follow up to Hydro - Morning Haze. We are really liking the sounds and melodies here. Its not yet complete though. We are still missing sound effect sweeps, and we haven't yet spiced up the breakbeats and builds. We're also thinking of changing up the bassline for the 2nd half of the song. All of that is still in the works though, we're hoping to get this done in another week or so. Let us know what you guys think about the melodies and the structure of the set.

| Awesome, definitely something that would be great to smoke and listen to. Nice job.. my only complaint is the kickdrum. |

Good intro.
I'd make the silent part a bit longer and fade the drums with a filter.
I like the sines and pads. They give great atmosphere to the track.
Nice sweep.
I like the bassline and the choir thingy that comes in.
I don't think that the ohihat should be that long. Maybe it is nice.
I donnu.
I like the conga it's nice.
Maybe add a sharper one in the front that will follow the bassline.
Nice percy riff.
I like the vocals really much.
Cool fluffy thingy.
I like what you did with the sines @ 4:00.
The delay on the vocals is omg.
But I can't understand the words.
OMG Great lead (sines).
Great lead again.
I just expected to have a breakbeat there.
It fits so well. Leave it as it is.
Add a havier bassy string (drone).
Imo you should end it with "Look" with a really long panning delay. Make it loud.
I just thought about this now but in the break, before the breakbeat and while it's on add some light strings. It will be like DAOMG
:p
This is the first track ever (as far as I remember) that I give 10/10 to. It is perfect without my comments but my comments imo can give the track a special thing in my heart.
Two things:
1) Can I remix?
2) Wanna collab?
PM me,
Omer. |

Hey!
A song by weed about weed... I like it before I even start listening!
Awesome intro.. the minimal percs work well, they allow plenty of room to hear all the tasty sounds floating around.
That's a funky bass, though a little low-end boost would be nice.
I like the hi-hats after the first break.. they give the song a little more of a groove.
The songs pretty good - I get distortion on some of the layers though.
Very chilled and fine work,

hey guys... thanks for the comments
this is definitely a lil longer than most sample clips nils... but i figured all you listeners could appreciate the track a little more with a longer clip.
glenns... i got your pm, i would be able to get you a full version once the track is complete. we're gonna be looking at some labels though.. so of course... no sharing, only for spinning.
shibby, i believe one of my friends who listened to my track also commented on the kick drum. a lil bit too trancy and punchy perhaps? maybe we should go for a warmer kick sound.
drow, thanks for such a long and in depth review. we'll think about making the intro a bit longer, but for now, it'll probably stay the same. as for the breakbeat section, we're just thinking of switching up the pattern a bit more, if you notice its just the same pattern looped every 4 or 8 bars. the words in the break are actually taken from an old enigma track mea culpa. we're not exactly sure about the whole legal issue of using those samples (we did own the vinyl from which it was sampled) but i think they say, "turn off the lights, take a deep breath, and relax". as for the break and leading out of it, we still do need to add strings or pads and bunch more sweeps. and also that guitarish sounding plucking thing in the break, we're gonna keep working with that a bit. also, if you'd like to remix, i can send you the midi info after we complete the song. i don't quite have time to do a collab though, because school has already been taking out so much of my time.
hey sooper, the bass does need to be a tad bit thicker, and we're also getting a bit of clipping as well. we haven't really gone through the track to do a mixdown/mastering yet, so hopefully it'll sound much cleaner after we get that done. also, who said this track was weed related!! :happy2: j/kk
thanks again for all the comments

This is really really nice. Like everyone else has already said, gorgeous chilled prog trance. I especially like the whispy and broken vox, haunting for sure! Then the spoken vox during the break works well with the overall theme of the track.
The only thing I could pick at, and it's being quite niggly is the perc is a little generic with that 909 sound, especially in the hi-hat and the crashes sound a little dry, could do with some extra reverb maybe.
All in all great stuff, one of the first tunes ive reviewed off here, have to say the standard is high and i'm well impressed. |

liking this.... bass stands out a bit too much... there's no midbass or anything to complement it? kick is a bit too weak, you need something more driving.
Atmospheric elements are good. Vocal elements and the orchestral elements are great!
@ 5 mins, this track really picks up.... this breakdown comes in faaaaarr too late (unless you're trying to make like a 12 minute song.) breakbeats are nice but the weakness of the kick is really prevalent here. also the break patterns can be improved, the double kick going into the 3rd bar of the breakbeat loop doesn't sit right in a progressive track. also watch the length of your breakdown.... it's like 2.5 minutes long! take out the vocals, they take away from the nice melody you have going in the breakdown.
like i said before, atmosphere built in this track is great... gives it a real melancholy feel to it. good work.

+1 I could not have reviewed this any better ;) Also the vocals seem a tad too loud during the beginning of the track when not everything is in place yet. I liked the track but it should definately be at least 1,5 minutes shorter (1 min in the build up at least 30 sec in the breakdown)
Cheers mate! |
