Hey,

Been a while since i've posted something here so would love some fresh thoughts from you guys on the track i'm currently working on. Tried to implement a bit of a weird feel so would love opinions on that.

Semirk - 101 Weeks please right click and save target as

Many thanks :)

it has a few cool sounds, though the melody was way to random
didn't really enjoy it :(
Semirk
Thanks for listening. :) I'll try and see if I can make the melody a bit more user friendly.

honest opinion: not feeling it at all. the wierd thing is a cool idea, perhaps for listening purposes but wouldn't work in a club, imo. melodically, this tune isn't going anywhere, but rythymically, some cool ideas here. breakbeat needs more percussion in general. kick sample isn't strong enough, needs more punch. offbeat openhh would put some more drive in the breakbeat. your hats seems to be more in the foreground than your kick and snare itself. pads and bass are nonexistant.

honestly man, i commented on your track only because you complained in that other thread. normally i wouldn't have responded to this because i have nothing too productive to say since the style of this track is not something i can comment on too well, but i tried. just wanted to show you that i have "decency" as you might say.

good day, and good luck in finishing.
Semirk
Thanks for listening and I appreciate the comments. I've never intended the track to be more club purposes, I don't make my music for club or money purposes. The bass is there from the very start, if it doesn't sound like one then its only because of flanger effects. And I didn't know there pads was compulsary. I hear a tonne of tracks without them.

I never complained in the first place, only pointed out. I appreciate the decency factor yes of course but you're starting to sound a bit bitter in that second paragraph.

Thank :)

Hey mate,
Interesting ambiance you have here, I like the pitch auto, I see u are playing more with the panoramics finally :).
The tune itself is very experimental as the rest of ur works mate, not really something I could listen to, the only use I find for this atm it's for the soundtrack for an abstract movie or sort of, ti sounds sort of like industrial ambient.
In overall, you are progressing, but the tune does not work for me, that's only my personal opinion because this has a public, have head this stuff before in other places, keep it up mate ;).
Kopi =o.

Many thanks for the feedback Kopi. :) It is quite niche in it's sound but its nice to provide something a little different around here I think. :)

For sure mate, I know also your pc it's not very powerful so I know you are limited to produce also, I expect great stuff from you in the future, I think it will take you about a year and half to begin to produce some very pro industrial ambient, and a good pc would make all faster :).
Kopi =o.

Thanks mate. :) Its all about making the most of what you've got so I try my best. Should have something more powerful in the not too distant future too, so can't wait for that. Thanks for the encouraging words also. :)

they're not... but in the case of this track, they would help a lot, especially if you're trying to develope a "wierd" feeling. even just a single note pad can really create that unsettling mood. just a suggestion, not really necessary.

Interesting sounds.

Really cool ideas, but it ends kinda abruptly. Is it done?
Semirk
