It's a piece of art, I am totally gonna have to save up and get reason...
Once I do, I will badger you incessantly for your knowledge.

Great track.

Nice work.
I was sort of not getting it until 1:20 when the scratching kicked in.
Very nice.

Great track. Like it a lot. Has almost a latin jazz sound to it. Real nice. Just love the melody line. Simple yet great.

The bass in this is like continental drift..super deep from under everything..middle of the planet stuff......everything emanates out in an ever expanding groove ..the FX are sweet....great work!....cheers planet

YO Transparent the track was redone but I am having trouble to update it, the server is so busy It always times out. I will see if I can uppage the updated version this Saturday for the looper crew and I'm kinda busy with a LOOPER HEROES drawing for the past comp. I am using Reason 3 for the past ! and a half years, if you need advice mate on how to make beats ,loops and bass lines ,the latter being my specialty I am glad to share it with you. Thanks for checking out my track I'm on my way to yours now.

Thursday ,was the plan but I forgot to copy the Reason extension file to rework it, I'll have to wait till I go back to my home town to fix it , but all is good in a weeks time then. Thanks for the listen mate.

Ooh I'm looking forward to this already...

You've already said about cutting down on the kick...so other than that I'd say that this track could actually be classed as a banger...

Thanks Splish , yeah man my ears was so messed up of fine tuning that I opt for more bass and pushed the levels beyond what it should be. No need to worry though I'm on the rework ASAP.

cool track.. i dig the melody and the vast anount of sound through out the track... i have mixed feelings about that kick,, it does seem over powering on my headphones too but its like right on the edge and i kinda dig it but it does wear on the ears after a bit.

Spot on mate,looking at that power full boomer today, I'm automating my vintage warmer to get that peculiar sound, but as I listen I know I must do that less. Will have a new version up tonight.
