Please check out my new track 'Reggae Dance (Nosrac presents Stu Magoo)' and post your comments here!!!

This is the first track by my best buddy, and long time musical counterpart Stu Magoo who has just recently started producing jungle (blues/jazz/metal background). The levels need some work (some blaring going on) and Stu will tell you (despite already spending nearly a month on and off making this tune) that it is nowhere near finished. He would very much appriciate any comments before going back to the drawing board.
The myriad of sounds were made from scratch using mainly a hardware Korg analog synth and Kontact. Samples were taken from a wide range of live sources including even a girl leaving him harassing phone messages. Personally, I feel this is an incredible start to his dnb career and this track shows tons of creativity and complexity not normally heard. Once he gets more practice with the technical aspects of producing, we will all have someone to watch out for!

THis thing wylz's the hell out. I like the bass samples and crazy breaks. Definately need to work on some of the levels, but all in all I think it's well written. Might try a drop or two with out drumz, a sort of a rest. Nice TUne Big Grin

Interesting tune, as the drum's are programed there is quite a bit of work in there, and some really nice effects, sounds and samples. The overall song doesn't seem to have a running theme, one element should be focused on, as it feels like a lot of different ideas in one track. A little more work, focusing on a theme or some elements to bring the tune together and you would have a killer track!

cool intro...kick drum iosnt present enough in the drums...i dont think there is enough hi end in the drums...they sounds a little mudded...i personally dont like the pattern of the durms but hey thats me Tongue

i see you are a fan of squarepusher Smile

who isnt lol... nice bass...good and loud iwhtough clipping...i aggree that there isnt too much of a theme behind the track that its kind of random...but thats also the kind of structure behind squarepusher and experimental kind of tracks...at about 3:30 my speackers clip...this might be my speackers...but it sounds like its in the track...so not good at all...interesting stuff...defffinitely could be touched up...too jungly for my taste though... Bigup

3/5track
2/5 sounds

Nicely produced, very cool sounds and variations

Some of the subs are completely overpowering though Shocked

Take it easy there Smile

Weird groove in the drums, but cool!

Not very danceable though...

3.25/5 for the track
2.5/5 for the levels

I like the FX on the intro after the BIG SLOW VOICE. Not bad drum work, swithes up nicely, like the short breaks and space fx sound alot. Def good. Not much melodic sounds, that would make it a little deeper. I really like the computer female vocoded vocals! Good work. Z
