Sage, you responded to my track so I will do the same for you Smile

First of all, this track is extremely professional sounding and quite unique too - It has the 'tech' feel to it, but not in a scary / dark way, but rather giving it a more melodious and positive vibe.

The usage of the snare rollup, lead synths, 1:40 stabs and the grand finale of this track are hints that you are also / or were previously a producer of techno / house music! Forgive me if i'm wrong but I can hear some trademarks from other genres in there too, and that's one of the things that make this track so interesting and lively.

For sure, this one would go down on LTJ Bukem or Fabio's dancefloor - brilliant breakdown at 2:50 by the way!

Keep it up, and let us know when you have any new tunes available.

Thanx a lot Watermeron! Smile Well, if it walks about trademarks from other genres it was my intend to blend in this track Wink However in past i was inspirated techno music and especially trance so here we got the answer Smile Sometimes i try to use unconventional methods in my work mixing some opposite styles or genres so don`t be surprised when you`ll hear a darkside folk next time Big Grin -just kidding! Cheers Watermeron!

Very nice tune, fine production & definately a big time floorfillah.
Only critics i got is that maybe the kickdrum could use a little more low-end, but that could also be my speakers.

ps: the low number of reviews is quite usual unfortunately. Last mix i posted has 900 and a bit dld's, & only 5 reviews or something. Gonna try to put up a better one shortly.

Well produced bruvva.
Soundquality is very good
Like the wobling bassline Big Grin
Some trancey and techy influences indeed, but well done.
Very dancable.
Maybe the snare could use a bit more punch, but that's just a detail.
Maybe it all sounds a bit too happy for my taste, but yeah, that's me, I like dark Big Grin

Very nice!

4/5

Very nice track...I like the trance-e-ness to it. Bassline is awesome...I agree the kick could use a bit more umpff to it, but otherwise nice solid track!

I quite liked your track indeed, the idea is good and most of the sounds fit pretty well, the arrangement is second to none and i find no faults in this tune what so ever ! but as for the person that said this would go down well in a Bukem set i'm sorry to say i have to disagree with that comment as i've been in2 Good Looking Records from the very start and i have everything GLR have ever released and none of their releasing are quite like this, there are a few cheezy sounds in here that sound like samples that were being used in the early 90's and not 1 GLR record has any of the cheezy elements and their music is alot better than this by along shot sorry to say, i mean if u listen to any tracks by Big Bud, Intense, J-Laze, Makoto,Tayla, Blu Mar Ten, Sonic Generation,Seba, Pariah, Aural Imbalance just to name a few then u will see exactly what im talking about....
Nevertheless i think your track is really good but there is no way i can compare it to any GLR stuff as their music is on a completely different level from this.
Most if not all the producers that have been signed to GLR were making music way b4 vst technology came about so therefore they were using hardware synths etc so its no wonder they make beautiful music with beatiful atmospheres, but to make music of that standard and quality with software is kinda of difficult as most vst softsynths are more techno trance orientated right now and can be very difficult to use to make what we call Atmospheric dnb, so to me your track sounds much more like tech rather than the kind of stuff GLR put out.
I'm not slating you my man, not at all i am just commenting on the persons comment about Bukem
would play this, cause beleive he would not as this does not fit in with GLR's music at all.
i myself am trying to make atmospheric dnb and to be honest i think most vsti synths absolutely suck for what im trying to make ! Don't get me wrong there are some vst synths i like such as Korg Legacy, Novation V Station, Albino 2, Dash signature Eve, Luxonic Ravity S, Reaktor 4, Artoria Modular V and MiniMoog V, Spectrasonics Trilogy, FM7, Virsyn Cube, Steinberg The Grand and a few others, but beleive i only like a handfull of the presets in each synth but if i was in2 making nasty noisy dnb then i would be in my elements with all the nasty sounding softsynths out there right now.
Good luck with your music, there is no doubt that you have skillz and a good understanding of structure and all the rest, keep it up and i wish you a good future with your creations Wink

yeh cool tune

but maybe it sounds too wide?
no? i do have the intention that it could sound more compact if you alter some sounds, like the bass, and pads. i feels that the drums float between them, or maybe the drums need more body compared to the other sounds. just a personal feel i guess.
good & clean sound

good job

I like this track. good melodie. That wonky bass line is what makes it for me. Cool futuristic noises. The drums are a bit weak.

nice work

Wobble bassline = cool
Trancy sounds/melody: bwah, ok.
Drums = could use some tweaking
Reminds me of some fast-speed car-games.

This is a very good first track!

It's actually so good, I'd like to incorporate it into one of my sets.

Feelin it - would love to share it on the dancefloor...
