hey guys.

as you will have noticed, my tracks have been a bit techy recently. this track is pure me this time. deep atmospheric and dreamy.

i wanted to make a track you could just fall into without knowing.

as always i hope you like it and id like some constructive crit if you got any:)

ps. bass is yet to be sidechained to the kick- i cant work out how to work sidechaining in cubase and it really needs it here..:(

hey there! :D.
yea i notice the bass needs sidechaining ;).
youve got some cool sounds in there right now though.

isnt that much too complain about in this tune, the melody that comes in is cool.
i think the bass "pad" is being to loud, you maybe want too lower it.


good job ;)

Very laid back, definately not my glass of tequila but I like the sounds. Very easy on the ears and nice progression throughout the track. Bass pad I dont like though. Gets boring after a while.

Aside from that, everything seems well done.

Hey Rich,

The track is not playing on your myspace, as soon as it does play I will check it out. Looking forward to it actually :)

hey rich.

unique sound.

i think the best of this track are the percusions and the pads.

percussions do have a good flow, kick is very solid, i like it. good work on the pads. sounds great in the break. pretty dark.

bass needs to be sidechained indeed. but instead of sidechaining you could add a long attack to the bassline and drop the bassnote on every bar. i know its not the same but it sounds good sometimes.

alltogether your track sounds solid.


cheers, nik.

Good percussion. The synths sound very nice.
The track lacks drive, but I'm thinking that will be somewhat sorted when you sidechain the bass. Maybe add a longer "clap" (pink noise, snare or whatever) on the 2nd and 4th beats.

As said before, "this track should keep blood pressure down to safe levels" :p
Very relaxing, nice to listen too. A sidechain would do great, make the track even better.

Perc is nice, sounds like they are phasing sometimes and that makes them very nice to listen too, and it also helps to build the atmosphere.

I love the melody! Just my style :D Mystic.

I don't agree about adding a clap. Your clap is perfect as it is ...

Seing forward to the final. :)

Rich mate please for the final and last time: USE HIHATS!!!! You are incredible in the atmospheric department, I am totally digging the whole track but it lacks the drive that M.I.K.E for example has. For godsake, hihats are the easiest part of a track. Just one open hat going behind the kick on every bar to give the track that normal drive. And then just add two quicker hihat loops , pan one to the right one to the left. Or use a shaker or a cymbal in a quicker notation.

For the rest I am loving this atmopshere and all other elements are superb (when u sidechain the volume of the bass to the kick it will even become bigger) mate, but you are very very stubborn son :whip: :D

Cheers!

Hey Richie

I agree with Menno mainly, the atmosphere is excellent, but the track lacks drive in the percussion part. I wouldn't say it is uplifting either, its quite a sad reflective melody.
It's definitely your style though, but I think to make it more driving and interesting you will need more percs , as well as the bassline being sidechained.

Cheers!

listening with some buffering problems..

hmm.. Marcus Schulz style.. personally i find Schulz`s music too be boring.. and so is the first part of ur track.. it gets more interesting at 4-5 minutes though.. but im having some serious buffering problem and it halts.. the bass and kick is nice.. nice sounds..
