Please check out my new track 'Simon Says' and post your comments here!

Just tried to get a bit out of the structural demands of DnB. Thinking inside the box only causes endless repetition.

i actually quite like this mate, creates images in my head, nice dark sweaty room, very late at night, this is actually quite "hard core", one for the crack heads Wink

love how you have used unconventional sounds, especially the kick and snare, and have purposefully strayed from mainstream ideas. The minimal changes in the synth work keep it moving along nicely, nice to hear something refreshing, at least to my ears.

Cool, different "snare" Smile
Nice how the bass builds and builds!
I did feel like the drop at 3.43 could have a bit more impact somehow. not ure what's missing...
It does get a bit repetitive towards the end, but otherwise very cool track!

Indeed.


Track is a nice experiment. Starts off with simple techno shaker-hats + a dnb kick&snare, then gets more dnb-ish with extra shakers, funky stuff. Like how the bass is out of rhythm.

You've sure got your own style, I can definitely recognise it in this track.

Very different, not sure how to rate this one, its definitely out of the box, at first I wanted to move on but the more I listened the more interesting it got. The breakdown at 3:30 is very nice. I think the snare could use a little work. Mixdown is very well done, and everything sits well in the mix, cool track.

Liking the beat, reminds me of some Jonny L
although the 'snare' is perhapps to loud in the mix.

not quite sure how i feel about this lol Big Grin
I want to not like it but now its rolling im grooving Drummer
yeah man percussion that just came in is sweet.

would drop that lfo that comes in on the bass, cheapens it by being a little too obvious? if that makes sense.

yeah man sweet tune now i've listen all the way though. Always chopping and changing Big Grin

Hello mate long time no speak Smile

Love how you are trying out new things and new sounds, kinda sounds like some of the stuff I usually here on IDM channels on youtube, really cool!

Technically this is really really well made, but the idea isn't really to taste unfortunately but, think you could have added more spice to this track somehow, sounds pretty empty to me :/

Keep at it mr BattleDrone Smile
