Czech the MySpace for another fresh cut, a little proggy acid number with a nice housey bounce to it. A chuggier electro/tech acid remix is coming soon!

Due to this being slated for a fall release, no downloads are available - yet. |

I liked it. Don't hear much of this sort of stuff these days. Or I don't anyway.
Impossible to comment on the production quality 'cause Myspace makes everything sound like garbage.
The groove you've created with the kick and bass is really good. The acid sounded nice and deep and trippy (just as it should).
Dropped at the right time in a club, I think this would go down really well.
Maybe my only criticism would be that I'd have prefered to have heard a bigger peak or climax where the track really kicks off but it never quite came. This is, of course, merely personal preference and I'm sure others would like it as it is.
Good tune! |

Glad ya liked it! Indeed, there isn't enough of the acid sound in trance today like there used to be.
If a peak/buildup/climax doesn't fall into place while I'm making a track, I don't ever force one in there. I don't feel that there's a need for there to be one in EVERY track during the course of a night, so I make tracks that are pretty much 4/4 straight thru.
If you want a nice buildup, see the remix of Perry & Rhodan's "Voicebox" i just got done bootlegging. :D |

k I'm listening:
Nice beginning, I really like the congas, this raises the expectations of the rest of the track!
Kick starts, not sure if I like it , sounds odd, could be myspace, could be stereoeffects?
Hmm second kick sounds higher in pitch , you hear that sample alot in jump trax, maybe try something else there?
Vox come in , I love it !
the acid sounds come in, nice.
Very interesting track! |

Thanks for the review, but that's a review of my remix of Perry & Rhodan's "Voicebox".
The first kick is tuned to a very low A pitch, the second an octave higher at a touch of a higher volume. The lower one is the "beef", the higher one the "punch". |

well nice groove going on in the bassline part, you really like those bassline machine patterns huh? :)
the semi chord synths are nice too... nice acidish sound, maybe a tad too loud... im 4:45 in the tune... im missing some massive change, a break or a new idea coming in... it just keeps on going.. i think you can take this to new places and not keeping it at the same place... thats my opinion... |

/me loves the 303 bassline sound, yes! :D
I'm not one that believes that EVERY track has to have some massive build/break. In fact, I like tracks that DON'T do that, to keep a flow going on the floor without stopping for too long (this is my perspective as a DJ). This track at 8 minutes is about as long as I like to have that type of "tracky" type track be (I figure about 3-4 minutes of this should be mix in/out time, leaving you 4-5 minutes of song to dance to).
Now the remix I've got in the works is going in a totally different direction, but is built up around the main 303 bassline (the one that starts in this mix at 2 minutes). |
