sneaksta303 Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 New Chune. Haven't posted in quite a while here... sorry for not giving more input guys and gals but i'm back! Tear up mine, I'll tear up yours. It'll be fun No way to describe it except Braindance I guess... So sue me... As always, constructive critisize me! Also, I chopped up the old school loops in the Chopper in Acid 3.0, the drums and everything else in reason, then Cool Edit Pro for the final master (if you can call it that...) PS! Listen to it all the way through for MAX effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dpek Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I really like it. It certanly has some feeling in it, it doesn't sound just like a lot of random noises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TEXX Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Yeah! This is really great, as it's not just drum-wankery, and it didn't bore me. It could have been a nice piano track, but the drus add a drive the melody lacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tht! tne Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 i really like this. it reminds me of drukqs. the only thing i would change is that a lot of the sounds recall presets. i also dont like synthesized piano all that much; idve used a fender rhodes or harpsichord. you did really good to not be too repetitive too. it has very strong and compelling melody.

Guest Promo Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Mmm quite nice piano. I could probably have just settled down and listened to a whole track of piano. Yes and your beats are certainly pretty wack. Mmm more impressive than your earlier stuff. One of the problems I have with this is that the piano initially came across as a little detached from the beats. However on 2nd listen it made more sense. As the track progressed, you should have added some chords because that would have underpinned the whole thing and given it more emotional juice. Overall my main gripe, as nice as it was, was that musically it just didn't blow me away and leave a strong enough impression. 6.5/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest horse Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 As the track progressed, you should have added some chords because that would have underpinned the whole thing and given it more emotional juice. reminded me of some of aphexs more frantic beatwork, some tight venetiansnares drum edits too. definately think it need some pads or something underneath everything else towards the 2nd half of the tune just so give it somepower to carry it thru, like promo said "emotional juice" like it a lot tho, big fan of intricate drumwork Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr. Elemeno von Hat X: PhD Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 yes, i liked it, the drums are very nice, especially the slow leadin at the beginning. agree with peoples drukqs + vsnares comments. it was aphex until the chopped breakbeat came in, then it was vsnares. a minor mix gripe - make the melody a little louder! not too much though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneaksta303 Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 EVERYONE! Thank you! This is the best critiszm I've gotten. Usually it's just random smart ass bullshit that doesn't help me at all. I wasn't going for a v-snares nor aphex sound (BUT! I think the chopped loops sound more like []pusher more than anyone, especially since its not random and in 4/4, but...). I was told by the peeps that have heard all 40-50 of my songs and they are NOT BIASED, they tell me when shit sucks, but i was told that this sounds like me. Thats it. Me. I'm not discounting your opinions, considering afx is prob my fave (v-snares = 6/10) BUT it was not a conscious effort. Keep the insults flying people! I need more! I wanna get better! Mastering probs? Mixing? Let a African American know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest idf Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 i really like this track!! its very []pusher-ish, and you have tweaked the beats and grooves very good!! since im just listening on my imac it would not be very EZ to comment on the mastering, but the mix sounds great, every little item that needs to be heard, is there and no frequencies are annoying and so.. sounds overall GREAT!! :) sorry for my badass language.. im tired and from sweden..

beneboi Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 I like your drum programming, not big on the melodies, but thats just my taste. id listen to an album if you released one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"the only thing i would change is that a lot of the sounds recall presets" Whats that mean? "i also dont like synthesized piano all that much" Hmmm... It was real... i wonder if the verb made it fakey sounding.... hmmm... Thanks though for the comments people. It helps me grow. Hit me up anytime if ya want some input.

goffer Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 great track. it had a bit of everything in it. the melody needs to be more involved and take a stand. It just doesnt seem right that its behind everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kenneth172 Posted August 7, 2007 Share Posted August 7, 2007 You can hear the Venetian Snares/Squarepusher/Druqks/Tuss influences in there, but that doesn't matter. It's a good effort with some variation in there. Well produced. Nice. OH, and the piano bit at the end is the best bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
