View this Thread in Original format

Been really busy with school. So I haven't had time to review anyone's beautiful music in here, let alone make my own.

Well I finally got around to making a choon.

It's cheesy psy. I would really appreciate comments. Hell I worked hard on this turd, I would appreciate a reach around!

Shouts to: Xeno, Cybernetica, Bidor, and Mr. Rogers, Chrissi, Jan, Idoru, Alon, Ron and the rest of the incestious ourboard lurkers.

Cool, I'm downloading. Quick listen sounds kinda atmospheric, good sound so far, promising. Will give you more words on this tomorrow, I am le tiręd :p

Thanks Lars, can't wait to hear your opinions. :)

ok, here we go :)

nice intro, very trippy sounds, excellent FX and pads.
Awesome introduction of the bassline!
The kick is ok per se, I personally prefer less clicky ones.
Sweeping and floating pads are awesome.
Nice percussions, seem a little static tho, maybe try altering the velocity a little.
First break, this is interesting stuff with all the filter sweeps.
Some guitars now, they sound a little artificial, but a very interesting arrangement.
Cool sample @3:00. Pretty dark stuff going on now, that lowpass filtered kickdrum makes this stuff sound so evil.
Next break, maybe it has a little too much of "tempo up and tempo down" compared to most Psy I know, but I still think its a quite interesting arrangement, specially with that breakbeat now. Which is really well done I may add. :)
Nice fill @5:44 ... now the part is cool.
I think the track is overall a little fragmented. I am missing some kind of climax... The first half is extremely promising, great atmosphere, but then after the long break at 3:00 you should make it all kick in, instead its going somewhere else, but I dont know where.
It might need a very driving, airy part. At least I could imagine that.

Oh, one word about the production quality: awesome! The mix seems pretty clean, and the elements are equally balanced.

Nice nice :)

Gotta love comparative listening! I just sat there in SoundForge during the mastering stage and had an Astrix track with the Waves PAZ analyzer on it. And went back in forth adjusting the Waves LinMB and the L2. I'm pretty proud of the mixing/mastering as well.

The kick Is just an EQ automation move I think. Everyone says it's too clicky to start with. But once it sits in the elements it fits right in IMO.

As for the arrangement? Yea it's kinda off the wall. It's like 2 different tracks. I dunno why, but oh well. I'll just do better in the next track.

Thanks for the feedback Lars, I really appreciate it.

Wow, Adam, this is a w e s o m e!

The first 180 seconds sounds like one song bridged by that 3rd minute to the final 180 seconds which sounds completely different.

I really like the first 180 seconds.

I really like the final 180 seconds, too, but yeah, it's a totally different tune than the first 180 seconds.

There's so many cool things going on and they seem to fit together quite well.

I've actually listened to this 5 times already since I dled it.

:D

hey mate, reviewing as i listen. intro is very atmospheric and sexy im liking it already, cool beat, expected the kick it a bit harder/deeper... the background beeping/synth, the vocals fit well. this is your best so far, really liking it. the panning of the synth at around 3:80 sounds cool, the guitar effects throughout the track are kind of unique in psy tracks.. i enjoyed it good work. just try and fix the kick a bit.

This tracks seems to land a bit between two chairs. It has a lot of twisting elements (like psy does), but those elements are not quite twisted and/or psychedelic enough. Either warp the effects even more or strip the track down to make chunkier, technoish track out of it. The way it is now it feels a bit awkward.

Kudos for the level of detail in this production though. With a bit more focus this can turn out quite well.

Pretty good. Nothing too special compared to professional productions. But it seems like everything is only a matter of arrangement/creativity. I like the guitar part and the increase in tempo. It sounds very crisp/clean as mentioned before. Great job.

Ive given my opinion on this and it seems like alot of the above agreed with me. THis is a start better than most of the crap that finds it's way to my desktop. Can't wait to hear it upon completion, even though you totally lumped me in with "incestious ourboard lurkers" :p

Mr Rogers
love'n the erie intro...panning is pretty cool, opens up the space nicely.
kick hasn't any punch, sounds way to low on the spectrum. might have to mash up and squeeze another kick in there. That kick would add to the track huge on its own.
the 4 note melody is awsome...fits the track perfectly.
its so hard to get into the track because of the lack of a kick. really cool elements throughout though.
a lot of change up and automation that helps the track flow, and i like the breakbeat u through in at the end.
that electric guitar sound does nothin for me, but thats just preference.
nice job.
cheers
