also you could probably safely end it around the 7 minute mark, thats a long ass track |
I really do like long tracks though, but I guess you're right. I don't know. |

After a couple of weeks of experimenting, here is the main groove of something I'm working on. It's on the deeper funkier side of life, bit of dubbism and vaque deep grooves. Monotone evolving with loads of FX and subtle changes.... you can download the snip in HQ if you like

i added a little change during the middle part to make it less boring and repetitive, my next track will be minimal techno so you can all be enthralled

tempest in this?
i really like when it levels out at around 1:10
i think it could use a more modern sounding snare but im not a big fan of analog percussion sounds |

Nice grove, feels real fresh and hypnotic. Nice rich sound. |

Really comes together I think after 2 mins, echos of proggy bands like Caan. Like that second break - very pleasing. |

sounds really quite polished and nice, like the way youve got it almost totally mixed before you got the vocal in place. The synths in the backround and fx are awesome. loads of little cool details very nice - but imo:
sounds cool but to me there defo something not quite right with the sidechain or pumping on the bass, not smooth enough and gives the mix a slightly jerky feel imo
Something sounds not quite right on the mastering side, i noticed it when i turn the volume down really low
I dont master things personally so dont know a lot about it - but just doent sound quite smooth enough overall?, maybe play with longer attack time (if poss)?
just my 2 cents worth |

yes! Indeed really good, you should finish this.
Arrangement wise it's getting there, the flow is good now.
However, turn all you levels probably 1/3rd down and easy on the limiter, your levels are now all over the place, the power pianochords must stay as solid on top of the drumloops as they sound solo'ed.
Now it sounds like everything is squeezed through a tiny funnel, fighting for it's space |

I love the beats and melodies and EVERYTHING! Except the levels, like Raphie said. Also, the change at about 2:30 sounds slightly awkward to me. I don't know how to explain it but I guess the best way to put it is that it's too abrupt... |
