Please check out my new track 'CICADA ROCK' and post your comments here!!!

Please check this tune.

It is a new angle, just a dubby stepper.

Thanks

drums sound nice and clear.... but slow...

i like how the sub creeps in.

good choice in sounds.

your lead could use a boost.

beat gets a bit boring


nice track it could use some more variations.

boring, i can't rate this, sounds good though. to repative. nice effects going on.

but event he drop it's missing a lot, it still feels like an intro.

the second drops got a bit more going on, but still that would have been better for the first drop, and something a bit more spicer for the second.

it's your song, and you put effort into it, but honestly, you need something to follow, and after you do any thing for more than 4 bars, it becomes inivisable. liek scanning through the song, the piano note you repeat and the vocals and the drum loops that all go into a delay, i stopped to listne to that, but the drum loops just go on and on....

dnb is for the lowest attion span if you don't have something new going on you lose em. even if it's something subtle like an instrument fading in over 4 bars.

Name of this one caught my attention. Momentous intro - fantastic mix of trad jungle sounds, reggae rolls and some dark ass atmos - lovin' it!! Pure killer dub shit - deep and heavy with sharpe clear percussion - great panning/reverb placement. This is some seriously unique shit - like nothing else I've heard on here. The cicada sounds are key - where did you get them? Evolves nicely - no real big drop or memorable lead/melody but this one has serious groove and guts - a soundtrack to coming off of some aweful drug. Although this one isn't brimming with bells and whistles, it is clearly a more mature track than most on dnb. 4/5 I'll be keeping my eye open for your other tracks.

Great metalic delayed snares in the intro, love those!

Hey, thisone is downtempo, didn't expect that. Nice bassline though!

A kinda chill but dark tune. Well made!

Cheers Nosrac, it's nice to here a positive review about something so different. I was going out on a limb with this and it reinforces my belief to make music from the heart not the trend lol

I know alot of producers here are into straighter styles, which is all good but sometimes don't seem to appreciate different angles.

Each to their own and I respect that, but to always expect 'drops' etc.. is a little close minded.

But thanks to everyone who has checked this.

Btw i'm in talks with a couple of labels about this. YAY!

PEACE

Yeah, but you can have a 1000bpm downtempo track. Just depends on how you place the kicks and the snares Smile

iNSiGHt: I'd love to remix this one - and I'm not the kinda wanker that goes around saying this to everyone - in fact out of all the tracks I've heard on this and other sites, this is the only one I've asked about. I can't get enough of the groovin' bass in this one - it's a permanent resident on my hardrive. PM me if you're interested.

very good dub track. nice drums. all in all it is a very clean track. if i played downtempo i could spin this. i will show this to my downtempo friends to see what they think of it. i give it a 4.5/5 and the only reason i didn't give it a 5/5 is that i am not really into downtempo unless i am trying to fall asleep(downtempo is very good for that purpose.)

very nice track!!
really!!

the only thing, and that is really the only thing...what bothers me...is that, sometimes the sound is disturbed...it's going faster and slower and slower and faster, maybe it was ment to be like that...
it's like lying in ur bed, listening to ur favo track and then suddenly ur dog is doing his thing on ur bed!!!!...

otherwise..suberb!!!! Bigup

Really nice track Bigup
I heard some of your other tracks too, and they were really good.
About this track: I really like the reverbed effects that come by every now and then. (especially the piano and the bongo sort of drums)
Man, I can hardly say anything bad about this, besides that it's not really DnB (but who cares Big Grin ). Just maybe one thing: the beat could use some more variation (but it's really good the way it is now).
Vocals are excellent too.
Man, how long have you been producing?? You sound so 'professional' and experienced.
Btw: I have listened to this track for the 5th time and it still doesnt bore me Bigup
I'd rate this 8.5/10.

Thanks for the positive feedback peeps.

@marine I try and make tunes that have elements that may not be heard the first/second time round. I guess just that litle bit deeper.

I am surprised at how good the feedback on this tune is. It has revived alot of hope in the dnb audience when something this diverse still gets such an open minded response, bith home listenning and on the dance floor. BTW it sounds heavy in a club, I was even surprised LOL Big Grin
