Please check out my new track 'Alien Arrival' and post your comments here!

Really dark and intimate, silence is an instrument too. I tried to create mystery and darkness.
The CIA is expecting aliens to land any minute now and when they arrive things get rolling.

Melodic aspects are ok but not entirely to my liking. Some effects you made don't work for me (the bleepy things, 01.02, 01.57, 02.08, 03.25, 03.36, 03.59, 04.09, 04.20, 04.31). Also too much silence in the middle for my taste. Work on the breakbeat/hihats is excellent, only part of the track that's truly dark though a bit to heavy to be 'intimate'.

Not much more to say about it; it's your music, you're not exactly doing too bad a job, so; yeah.

ez BD- thats a wicked intro text!!!

typing as im listening..

wow- moody as FUCK man!!
Sub stabs at 0:17 work well
great radio samples..

the crazy alien stabs arent quite to my taste- but they add a real different texture..

some of the fx seem a little loud when they pop up - not by much tho.

4:39 is badass!!

Got tons of potential and just needs a more melodic hook i think the melody you have is a little atonal in places..

Nice work!

the intro sample is sick, the intro is dark and moody
i think the hats in the intro could be half time but thats a minor thing

this track kinda rolls into the verse rather than dropping which is pretty sick, the bass sounds in this are all really cool, and its definately rollin.

silence in the break is unusual but adds to the atmosphere really well


mixing and mastering wise all is sound. nice one

great sounds in this tune, very deep track. snare has too much high-end imo, id boost the middle range a little too. also would like more variation in the sounds, repetitive after a while. really like this disturbing athmosphere in this tune! cheers

Wow. I'm loving this. Wicked atmosphere, it's like the aliens are above my house in a UFO and I'll be abducted any minute because of the song Tongue

I think there's a bit too much silence in the middle and there's a bit too much high end but other then that I have nothing else to say

No man, it's good that way.

Maybe add some synths during the silent bits, like in this one..

Really nice atmosphere to this, love those abrupt drumbreaks coming in here and there, nice touch. Melodies are good all the way, main drums are maybe a bit to thin for my taste though. Lots of cool sounds and effects going on. 02:45 I think I see what you're aiming for, but it doesn't really work for me the way it is, maybe add some ambient sound lying under there.

Nice one!

Drums are a bit clumsy, but I'm lovin the bass sounds.

Also sometimes an fx sound sounds a bit misplaced (03:36 for ex.)

Solve that, adjust the melody and you'll get my support!

Nice moody intro. Like the hi-hat. That farty bass sounds cool. Very sinister vibes. Some sounds you have used remind me of Callide 'Supreme'. Very cool palette of sounds - has a very modern feel to it. I think this is one of your best yet! Really boost that sub. Love the way that some sounds just blurt in and fade out, really catches your ear and rapes it, good stuff, respect.

Feeling this, like the dark mysterious vibe. Drop could use a little tension still. Love the Alien sounds, very good theme and sounds to go with it. Nice work. Z

Hello mate,

'Really dark and intimate, silence is an instrument too. I tried to create mystery and darkness.
The CIA is expecting aliens to land any minute now and when they arrive things get rolling.'

Ha, great intro text mate made me very intriuged to listen...

0.45 OK liking the intro especially the dark sweeps and menacing low synth. It sounds as if the sweeps and synth are interfering with the bass which could be cleaned up quite easily.

1.48 Pretty twisted tune dude, theres enough variation to keep the the interested but theres definately some elements fighting each other which needs to be addressed.

I like what you ve tried to do using the silent parts n stuff, it works quite well but needs some more variation I feel and some eq. Nice work mate.

real nice use of effects on the intro. atmospherics really creating the atmosphere i love! somehow that bass synth sounds the wrong octave to me though. real nice bleeps and sound effects. still left waiting for some kind of drop though which doesnt seem to happen. i feel the track hasnt been knocked into 'top gear'. theres a lot of neuro like that and you may have wanted it that way, but its just not my taste. i like my spor/noisia/evol intent type neuro.
Classy mastering on this track. everything sits nicely within the mix but i still feel that some parts sound a bit dry and could do with some more processing. saying that, i have a bad habit of over processing things myself so it might just be my ears.

It's just military mumbo jumbo conversation on radio from a sample site.
I don't know Burai Fighter.
