I didn't know this tune reached 7 mins long and I wasn't trying to make it so boring. I was aiming to tell a story rather than making someone want to groove. Hope you guys enjoy it. I really like my mixdown. Let me know what you guys think and please give me comments both negative and positive. Respect!

All this seems to made of a lot of samples, I don't really hear a tune yet... this needs work... this reverse piano pad thing is way too loud and nerve wrecking. Take it out at for at least some periods of time. Add some melodies, not just sampled melodies. __ Check my soundcloud (exclusive tracks on there) 27-05-2011 22:56 amptek Jan Amparo Registration Date: 04-08-2010 Posts: 148 Helpfulness rating:  quote: Originally posted by BattleDrone Drums are too much in the back, use sidechaining to make room for them. 7 minutes is way too long.

And yeah 7 mins is too long for something repetitive. I'll get back onto this over the weekend and see what I can do with it. I do appreciate your honesty Respect!! OH, can i get tips on what to sidechain exactly for the drums? PM or respond here either way appreciate it! 27-05-2011 23:20 shir_pan Cool Producer Registration Date: 01-02-2011 Posts: 205 Helpfulness rating:  track has a nice idea, but the melody doesnt sound really right to me, some tones are biting each other imo. would be better to cut the song to 4-5 mins i guess. drums could be louder a little. nice vibes at ~5mins (but the melody is still troubling me). maybe check those tones and adjust them if necessary, could be a nice chiller-tune. cheers __ http://soundcloud.com/shirpan 28-05-2011 13:52 Mikowsky Newbie Registration Date: 28-05-2011 Posts: 1 Amazing vibe, real jazzy but with an original twist. 28-05-2011 18:22 timmehhurts Her Jade Eyes Registration Date: 14-03-2011 Posts: 90 Helpfulness rating:  you would like your mixdown, you did it! i love the reverse piano got a cool haunted vibe going on love the bass line and it sits well in the mix some of the sounds in the first verse are a bit odd but your mixdown is wonderful love the pipe kinda thing, reminds me of prodigy i didnt find it boring, good job __ I <3 Bass Her Jade Eyes Soundcloud Facebook 29-05-2011 02:20 prism Newbie Registration Date: 28-05-2011 Posts: 1 not something id dance to but definately on the come down list,nice tune 29-05-2011 06:07 amptek Jan Amparo Registration Date: 04-08-2010 Posts: 148 Helpfulness rating:  Thanks everyone! This tune actually went through a revision because i took BattleDrones advices regarding the overall tune itself. I have the updated version on soundcloud but i'll upload it once I get this one deleted by one of the admins. I had to look deeper into this tune and remove a lot of repetitive sounds and so here's a link to the new version if you guys want to listen. http://soundcloud.com/amptek/lost Thanks everyone for their kind words and comments regarding the first version of the tune. Enjoy and Respect! Amptek PS. Yeah this isn't something to really dance to at all but more of a come down or lounge type deal. I've been feeling really trippy these days if you will 29-05-2011 07:02 drumnbass.be forum » Production » Tunes » amptek - Lost In Your Game
