Please check out my new track 'The Undead' and post your comments here!!!


So what u think?
The syth sounded a bit swallowed by the other sounds on my monitor, but on my headphones an pc speakers it was quite clear in front, so I dont know what is broken there..(the monitor or my headphones/pc speakers)
Watch the second drop for 16 bars of amen-mash-up hardcore Big Grin

The synth in the intro is from Iblit
and the main one is...
..
..
..
..
junglist

The Undead have rised from their graves Evil


This track has been deleted on the producer's request

thin amen.. but a nice groove to it. don't like the intro synth / could be better in terms of sound choice. the spoken bit could be a lot clearer.

drops here we go the track is rolling allright. not too fond of the melody - cheesy. only IMO, it's personal tastes. that intro synth is offkey with the reece and doesnt fit in. ah more offkey at 2:15 is this meant to be like this?

gets boring quite fast, not much happening. all of a sudden you move to hardcore with that super-loud kick.. hmm not quite diggin it.

I feel this track is going nowhere.. sorry

Yo!
I think you could leave the intro beat longer(to build up the drop).
the vocals are nice but the drop needs more build up. The loop is cool tho.
I like the drums but the kick needs boost. The snare is nice if a bit low imo. Those synths are nice but could be more prominent. The bass is nice: dark and catchy but the whole loop needs more variations.
In all there's a good song in the works here but could do with a bit more attention
cheers 4 the listen

i've filtered out the stuff below 50Hz from the kicks, so the 50Hz boosted sine bass (where the reese is layered on) would get some more space, and clash less with the kicks. I might have cut out too much, but on my hp's it sounded ok, but since there broken, it was in mono, so that could make a difference..
I've been trying to make the track mono, but i didnt find where i could make the switch between stereo and mono in FL?

break = Home made break + Balance of the forces-break + Firefight

then I guess you took too much frequencies. making space in the eq spectrum is really just taking a notch, so push the Q knob right until it sounds ALMOST the same. that's a harder method, and I very rarely use it, it's better IMO to notch the reece a bit - cause you really need that kick and it should peak in a very narrow band

use a wave editor for that and convert to mono. I think LAME encoder also does conversion but it would be of use only for the final mixdown

Cool stuff, like the atmosphere here, can't really see the point in having the hardcore drums there though, if you're going to keep them you should do something more with that whole part of the song, otherwise there is no point, then it's just the same thing with different drums.
It's not a bad idea though, maybe run everything through lots of distortion and scream over it Big Grin let it last for about ten seconds of mayhem then go back to the other drums hehe, that ought to scare them, it's the undead we're talking about after all.

Production-wise it sounded good on my speakers.

Great! Keep it up!

bangin intro , synths fit well in it .
vocals dark , could be louder.
hardtek raves comin in Big Grin
Drop comin in too early imo , so intro could be longer (drum fade gradual , some more ambi maybe) but it blasting hard boy.
bass is eq'ed well , no clipping .
i hear the variation , but still some sudden drum stops would be cool , some more tweaks too.

waiting for second drop...

Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin haha , cool man , phat 909 in my face.
'overgang' from hardcore to dnb could been done better (some overlapping , bass fade , fx , ...)
So you're still able to make nicely eq'd productions on yo crap pc. Tongue

good job here , just some more variation , tweaks n finishing touches.

In the second drop, you've got that stuttering reese, and yes, indeed 2 sudden drum stops Wink

and yeh the thunderdome-style comes in a lil too quick maybe..guess i'll have to go make some stuff to make it less sudden..

Hey man hows it goin? this shit is pretty nice - your production skills are definitely improving.

The beatz are nice & crisp but I think your rides could be a little more prominent. Also some twisted edits & fills would be good to give it some variation coz it is a little repetative at the moment.

Intro could be a bit longer but the overall choice of sounds is good & it drops nice. Its been said before but the vocals do need to be clearer they're not really that easy to understand.

Your reese is massive as always Wink love the stutter after the second drop. The other synth sound works well - maybe you could expand on it a bit? give it its own identity, vary the melody a little or something.

Love the hardcore breakdown!! yes that is sweet! nice snare rolls man. amen needs to come back in a bit less sudden though imo.

Overall I think this is pretty tight bro & there is potential to make this massive! Big Grin


EDIT: Just listened to it on my home system instead of shitty work headphones & must say the bass is heaving! good work! all sounds occupy their own space in the mix well but I think your main synth sounds could be just a little louder (not too much though) also the kick drum needs to kick a bit harder though coz you cant really hear it. compare it too the hardcore kick drum & you'll see what I mean.

Hope this helps, peace Bigup

dont think the vocals fit. i cant understand what its saying at all...
the lead is nice and so is the drop. bass is also good. the tune needs more variation though, gets boring pretty fast. some fx in the amen (it always plays the same) and some diffrent reeces to get dynmic into the track. production is on a high level though.

tune is good but i dont like those simple amen tunes.

haha the 4 on the floor bassdrum in the end ahahhaha Bigup

Well, this track really is a fine peace of jungle-ware. Very good breakbeat, enjoyable rawbass and nice effects. I think the rawbass actually sounds like it has something to do with the undead, real dark sounding. The ambient sounds and other synths are really well balanced. The drumline is kicking, and that's what I like... The trance-like drum variation is cool, because it makes the track more variable.

As a conclusion I'd like to say that I don't have anything bad to say about the track, because it's just so well made. Hell yeah I like that one! Big Grin Bigup

drums are pretty cool... i like the intro. vox sound cool. the lil filtered synth before the drop is cool. the phat reece bass is nice. could probably have little change ups with the drums... drums change pattern which is cool, i think i heard a main pattern change... yes, yes i did.
the synths n shit are cool. you could probably add some stab fxs... maybe some extra percussion... or change up the bassline with some distorted stompin sub or something. arrangment is fine... although more change ups could happen to keep the interest. break is coool... do not like the gabber kick... just hate gabber personally. although some gabber kicks in a break beat are alright. drops fine after the gabber stuff. and i think the gabber kick is abit more powerful then the normal kick. like crushfuk said.
but still cool to listen to... keep those dark stompas comin.

hell yeah man i like the theme you got goin. i actually think its very good all around.everything fits in together real tight like the different vitues fit as one piece of song better than ive been able come pull through the final. i thought it was a good pace to the groove of it ya know energy and some drive pretty good it had me startin to think i was about to have to fuck something up wich is very good.yeah though i would say for suredont stop the break at that and keep layering more complexity to the to the progression like its too much the same all the way through.but its fullo enough i think and yeah the bass and lead parts too twistem and rapem around moreand youll be chillin fat on titties for sure. titties. i love titties.

i've put it on a cd-r yesterday (went to someone who got one), and played it on my home 2*185W system
I've gotta agree with cynik now, the kick from the break could be more puchy, and the hardcore must be less loud..
As tomorrow there will be a general strike and after a weekend and a complete week off i'm gonna work some more on it Big Grin




(btw this is again one of those 'bored sundayafternoon' tracks, like resurection of evil was Big Grin )

Intro could use some length and depth, build it in a little slower. Don't care for the vocals at all, but like the synth in the build and I like the drop. Amens could use some beefing up, try layering the snares and kicks. Over all it's a good listen! Bigup 8/10 Z

if this is one "of those 'bored sundayafternoon' tracks", then i hope you spin alot of such a tracks on bassbashing, this song has really something, improve it some more and it'll be massive Wink (just do whatever you like, people always talk about improve, but i know shit about EQ'ing, i i guess i can't really help you)

Nice thick sound! Lovin' it!

That bass is a nice change. I've been hearing a lot of liquid lately and I've been dying to get away from it, thank you!

Good roller track, lacks variation but that isn't really a problem.

This thumped the crap out of my shitty little Logitech X-540s! 3:20 thereabout, lovely and deep but I can feel the drums getting soft.

Interesting idea with the hardcore, but for me this doesn't at all go with your DnB feeling. The kick is way too loud in that section.

A definite thumper though! Keep it up!
