BCM Posted June 17, 2006 Posted June 17, 2006 (edited) From the start I LOVE the acid riff.....think the kick drum may be pitched down a little too low though, getting a bit lost in the overall mix IMO, wicked bubbling vibe throughout the whole track - really like the change around 1:20, with the bit of reverb on the kick - that's pure class and a lovely accent to the track as a whole. Nice hi-hats, but they seem to be lacking a little high-end? Could just be my headphones, but I think sould do with some EQing....Last third is really nice with the little kind of middle eight bit with no acid. Yeah, it's another acid belter Miss Llewellyn! Nice work. Safe. Edited June 17, 2006 by BCM
Guest Promo Posted June 17, 2006 Posted June 17, 2006 Sounds phat. Sounds like you're going for some low octave acid action. Feelin' like it need more percussive action after about 1 miinute to really get the boogie goin'. Feelin' like I need some pads or summin to kick in after say 30 secs to help with the vibe. Overall am feelin this. Mmm nice percussion around 1.30 mins. Yeah some pads would make a nice addition as you've fundamentally got a pretty fuckin phat groove goin'. I could boogie to this for sure but just to take it to the next level some pads would have been real sweet. Nice shit - very dancable!!
ascdi Posted June 17, 2006 Posted June 17, 2006 i'm not completely sold on the kick either, but i'm only listening through a crap wave radio at work, so who knows. other than that, it's fab. i'm assuming there's some compression and eq on the 303, right? isn't there usually a big differential between the volume with the res down and the res up? this is recorded well and does not suffer from that problem.
m.leafeater.dl Posted June 17, 2006 Posted June 17, 2006 sweet acid goodness, had me taping my foot and nodding my head once again. i love the main acid line, and the bass drum sounds pretty damn good too me. i want more!!!!
Guest Ant Acid Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 thanks, it's very rough, as have all my acids! but i'm trying too loosen up, as my previous musics was way too overproduced. getting back to a more visceral style. re: compression. i use a valve preamp and eq on the 303 which compresses range nicely! i'm getting hold of a devilfish today! they look pretty ugly, but sound sweet :grin: although mine won't have midi in!
Guest αnalogue ψings Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 LOL, you just broke Chris Moss' heart :laughing:

Look. Er, how??? Who's??? WTF?? People don't just borrow 303's off people and "get hold" of a Devilfish willy nilly....well, not in my experience....
mosca Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 shite boring generic acid wank drums sound awful, not enough tweaking on the 303, bet you wish you were born 15 years ago when this kind of shite would have been lapped up.
Guest Ant Acid Posted June 19, 2006 Posted June 19, 2006 (edited) mosca: i can't hear you, sorry :grin: but i'm guessing it's plain nasty and i was right to ignore you EDITi peeked and i was right Edited June 19, 2006 by Ant Acid

Mosca, just out of interest mate - what sort of music do you actually LIKE? You always slag everything else off and say it's rubbish etc, but A: that's not really in the WATMM spirit is it?, B: you never say anything constructive and C: who the fuck are you to write something off totally the way you usually do - you could be wrong you know....

mosca Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 my stuff's easy to find - do a search for acid hooligan on P168 part 1 (i won that with some acid madness - this was a while back mind you) there's some of my shite over at retropublik.com (took most of it down tho) i like music done well, fieldtriqp, modex, assym head, loaf eye. i don't like 'as took as long to record as it took to write music' i should add IMO to all my posts. I'm glad you all like this track but as i said the drums sound afwul (both production and the sounds used), the acid line does nothing interesting and the track is pretty generic. the spirit of WATMM is to tell the truth and not bum everyone who makes half arsed musics! or at least it was the last time i checked. it's this kind of wanky 'we're all great' attitude that's made YLC the pile of shite it is. It never used to be like this! fuck it mo
Guest Camphor Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 Yo bitch, chill out we's all good at makin acid styles. just sum startin out, sum been doin' it for a years (ant acid, camphor, u know the score). check out sum of the origeonal acidcore crew and let get the party started! ok, peace. that's all to say
mosca Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 you're right fuck it i apologise to all concerned - keep on making whatever makes you happy. mosca
Jaffa Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 I think this is pretty good, its just minimal acid, I found there to be enough tweaking going on in the lines to keep it funky and dancable , and thats a nice mashup of Steve Pointdexter's 'Work That Motherfucker' track on the clap and vocals. Yeah I spotted that.
Guest Ant Acid Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 i don't think it's the best i've done so far, the drums are pretty raggedy and these are only jams you have to remember, the whole point of spending 30mins to make a track for me is to get away from too much programming, i'm a firm believer in actually performing the music rather than just programming it. (although i do editing in ableton after the jam is done!!) :) yeahyou got it! it says "fucker" lol :grin:
BCM Posted June 20, 2006 Posted June 20, 2006 you're right fuck it i apologise to all concerned - keep on making whatever makes you happy. mosca Nice one. That's the spirit laddie!
