Please check out my new track 'selfish motive' and post your comments here!!!


another not exatly finished, there are still cahnges to be made for the second drop (yeah this time I actually made them) and deff. some other structural and sound issue fixes


this was made using a new idea filled by bits and parts of older (unfinished) stuff which was lying about, so shouts to sykotic who gave the idea

Ive used the following:
Reason 2.5 + free virus refill munki c gave the link for
drums were layered with breaks from the site Big Grin
one royalty-free XXX sample Big Grin

constructive criticism welcome Bigup


This track has been deleted on the producer's request

Nice level's, track sounds great on my speaker's. Love the sounds, free virus refill? What's this? Is it for reason only? You did a gread job recycling all those old bit's and part's, sounded fresh! Does get a bit repeatative, mabye some mad change up's would do the trick. You should ask Sykotic to re-mix and or master this track once you finish it up. Sykotic has those mad scratching skill's. Anyway cheers dude, nice work. Bigup ++Stu Maggoo++ Bigup

it is repetitious, track was developed over a short time.. I would make edits and changeups but they take a terrible amount of time (for me at least) and I wanted to share this now Tongue

Im allways open to for remixing projects, we'll see..

the refill is reasons format for samplepacks

thanks for the review Bigup

Cool stuff, with all the virus sounds. A bit more structure in them would be nice though...

Like how the drums come in.

Ah, things are becoming more structured, good.

Please cut of below 30hz, you got some slight subs going on in the 0-10hz range...

Like the sound of your drums.

Not a bad efford, but it left me with an unsatisfied feeling afterwords, I think you're missing a strong theme to keep things together...

I'm having trouble with one more insane synth that would accompany the other sounds and make the theme you speak of.. so I thought to drop it out in the preview..

Ok so it goes smooth and the track is rolling....
Interesting basseline, but I agree with Surya about the subbas...
Very good drums and very interesting virus synths....
Whats the main part of the tune???
The second drop is somehow repetitive???
But whatever good sound quality....
I rate this 9/10 Bigup

Nice crisp intro sounds and the breaths make it sound really tight. The synth sounds are very cool that come in but are too dry and some hit quite a bit louder than others - very cool nonetheless - check out T.Rolls last two tracks - he's got similar interwined sounds that are mixed really well. Once the bass kicks in it levels eveything though and this track really gets going. I think the drums should change when the sub comes in - something much more in your face and louder - hates need more attack, snare needs more crack and bd needs more punch. The dark rolling melody to this is very cool though. I'd like to hear this one beefed up cause its a cool track. I've been looking for a track like this to remix, so let me know. 7/10

i like it ... these are all virus sounds ??? very nice ... i like the drums and the edits

your drop was good too ... Bigup nice work blending all these sounds together ... there seems to be something missin though and i can quite put my finger on it though ...

i think the kick in the drums is a little on the weak side ... puch it up a bit ...

i like the cut work at 3:05 very nice touch to break the drums a bit ..

Nice raunchy synth lead, breath samples are cool too are they from porn? Good job with the beats. Not much of a bassline in this tune is there? Track has pretty good sound quality and you seem to have skills...it's just a little uneventful, just a lot of the same stuff... You have some really good ideas here, just needs some more changes and some reworking.

thanks to all who took the time to review

@nosrac: I'm changing some of the stuff and will let you remix this once it's finished Bigup
you will need that refill tho free nova/waldorf it's the third down from the top. reccomend to all!

@arkitekt: not all, but 90% of the synths are from the refill

@sykotic: pretty sure it is a sample from porn.. I cant remember where I got them

ok lets start Pleased

i dont like the kick its kinda soft for dnb , but its my opinion Smile

make sanre more punchy

nice synth sounds but the backgorund is empty , you need to put there some sound fonts to make your track more fat and interesting

drop is nice Bigup

yeah the breakdown part is very nice , nice bassline Wink

make more variation with drum lines

make cymbals or ouh shit forgot the name , ah make hihats a less loduer a bit , just a bit and give they high freq. it will make them sounds more quality

more work with 2 part , add some new synth or change the melody , i know you can do it Bigup


track is very well if you work with him more then youv got i think very sick track Bigup

you can just put some interesting tinny pads with delay and some fx sounds to make background atmospher , there is many variants , you can just add some strings on the low octave to make dark atmo just experiment man Wink

drums sound fine this time in the intro...but there arent any hats really...get some hats in teh intro to spice up the progression like you do later on...they sound a tiny bit quiet compared to the amens but i think that was intentional...after the drums sound fine...a lot better on this run...

Low end sounds thin...boost those subs a bit more...give it more umph...

Really like the ideas and melody's behind this track...it could really be evolved into some good shit...as for now its still unfinished...

but good stuff so far...levels did sound fine to me as well...only beef is maybe compress the drums and some more hats...fallows by some boost in teh sub...

The rest of the track evolution is up to your immagination...

for now...id give you 3 for the productino, and 3.5 for the ideas behind it... total of 7/10
