Drums sound a bit death, they could use a bit more splash, especially the snare. The drum buildups need work. Bass should be a bit heavier, meaner and could do with a bit of extra variation. Not too fond of those snare snare snare drum variations.
But hey, it's a preview. Not to worry.

Brilliant Wormhole-like beats! The bassline melody is pretty good, got me head bobbin to it. Very nice indeed. Not too keep on the main synthline... doesn't really fit the track I reckon. They are too ravey, I'd do something a bit more moody and dark.

But yeah, a nice basis for a bangin tune! Finish it Bigup

ez

I am too of the headphone massive right now but my 2 cents...

As above, liking the Wormhole beats, would suggest pulling the snare up a bit. Loving the dark synth & fx build up! - this is where your snare starts to get a bit distant (32s). Brighten up the snare and/or notch and bring the synth down a bit, it's dark and rolling like I love but perhaps a shade too prominent?

Not sure about the euro-esque arpeggiated synth, as above, I think its not inkeeping with the dark synth, too trance/ravey - keep it dark! Devil

I like the sub underneath it tho.. were you going for a wormholey type thing? If so, maybe some crunchy warped synth, eh, thingys Roll Eyes sitting in their own space. ie not a constant line, more spaced out.

Nice but - I'll check back on the progress.

Peace,
wT

wtf is going on with the ratings again

like the live feel of the sound, some smart reverbs going on. your production has changed and I like it, its not as clean as some of your previous tracks

cool dancy tech vibes

reckon it needs more ripping basses ala calyx teebee

keep at it and let me know if youre up to collabing on it

p.s. Im on aim again

@Cynik

Know what you mean about the rating system, 2 stars? really?!?

Nevermind....

seems people arent too keen on the arpy synth.
its just something i've liked really.....the dark mixed with trancy elements. Cuz there some old stakka tunes and some old tech itch with the ol arpegiated lead i used to love.

anyway, been working on this.....made a bit more of an intro with more of a build to the drop. gonna change the end of phrase rolls as i dont really like them anymore.Big Grin

will post a new version when its nearer completion.....


Got the morning off tomorrow too so i'll get on to some reviews Big Grin

Cheers Teeth

Wow! This is really nice. I don't hear much stuff like this now day, well not now I'm located in New Zealand... The drums are nice and strong, but I think the snare could do with a little touch more reverb. The synths sound fantastic, I might have to upgrade my copy of Reason now! I really like the background fx. I am having trouble finding much at fault with this tune... Maybe increase the sub base, but then again, its probably my stereo that I'm listening on. Maybe do a rumbling type of bassline. Cool

Really good mate. Work on this track Smile

ps. Any chance of you uploading your combi patches again. Would like to check them out, not so much for production, but as a learning tool.

this tune is badly rated man - should be much higher, wot d rassss!!

anyways, loving the beats - true say what the others say about the snare mind

loving the bass - like the edits u got on it and the way it subtly changes

the effects are spot on

anyways - made me drive faster to grand tourismo so u did a top job imo, some people on ere r on crack i reckon...

peace

your synths are good as usual but the beat needs a bit more life and brilliance to it.

just eq the beats a bit to make them shine out a bit more n you're laughin.

EZ Jimmy

Solid beats mate. Could maybe do wiv some extra breaks or summat to add a bit of mid splashiness??, like the gated vocal thing, really nice.

Reece is sweet. Is that done with Thor? sounds good.

Must get upgraded to 4.0 soon meself

Not so keen on 1:30 onwards where the gated synth bit comes in.

Well worth finishing though Jimmy :Bigup:

Cheers for all the good feedback....been working quite a bit on it.

@Shinyuri

It has been quite badly rated, must be some beef towards me with some people....oh well fuck 'em


Beat is now a bit more crispy Drummer ....worked a second drop....few more variations etc

Will up it soon

Thanks again. Big Grin
