By "stop-start with the drums" I mean that I would like the drums to continue uninterrupted more often rather than breaking down and stopping and then building back up again into a main, solid groove.
Breadowns, pauses, fills and drum changes are all great for providing excitement in a track and I love doing them. I just think this track would flow better if you didn't do those breakdowns and pauses so many times but kept the beat more constant. Also, if you do it too much, it loses its appeal.
I haven't heard of "Aren't You Clever" by Laurie Webb but will now look her and it up.
Good luck with any improvements or alternate mixes.
Okay I see now..
It's not the rhythm of the kick it's just the flow of the entrance of the track overall. I get you :)
I actually did that on purpose to convey a more dramatic feel to the track; to make it sound empty in the first half, bring in the beat for a foreshadow, then take it back out to bring back what I wanted to be the overall feel of the track; more dramatic than just a constant beat.
I can hear why this is your fav Sevenola.....has a nice rolling along vibe & the kind of uplifting feel that leaves a smile on your face..The string stabs are a nice contrast with the beat & synth pad & the breaks/variations keep it interesting listening....enjoyed this one....Well done....Ed
Hello. This is some quite creative and complex stuff. Strange, complex structure to it.
Big bass drum you've got thundering away there.
Good vocals and a classic sound for this genre. Whose vocals are they/where are they from?
I like the skittering, panning shaker/hats that come in on 1:54 They make a real difference to that verse. Maybe they should have been brought in sooner (just an idea).
Strings also sound great. Delay on them is just what I like.
Perhaps a slight problem with this, with reference to the slightly strange structure, is that there's too much stop-start with the drums. It's creative but maybe this would do better with some steadier beats.
But it's really good stuff with definite commercial appeal so I can understand why it's one of your favourites.
It's fairly an old track that I created maybe a year ago when I was much younger on the trail of producing/mixing. The structure may be strange because it's actually the extended version that I pretty much deemed the original after a while. And I'm not sure what you mean but the stop-start of the drums, are you meaning the kick line at the intro that carries throughout the song ? It does seem a little redundant and strange with the clash of the 4-beat kick when it gets sort of "poppy"... so I think I know what you mean.
The vocals are chopped up and from the song "Aren't You Clever" by Laurie Webb.
I've been meaning to re-do this song and maybe even do a couple of different mixes of it even.
Thank you again for your comment, much appreciated !
:D
superb progressive electro...I feel rock and dubstep in it, too...like the drum rhythms, specially uunder the first vocs...the whole track is flying and it doesn't bored in 5th minutes, neither...
Description : Feel free to check out the video on YT as well (Alan McLaren Project - Upside Down) of this 6min journey from electronic to rock with some psychedelic moments...
This is my latest, but also one of my earliest tracks.... any feedback is more than welcome, thanks :)
Description : 'The main point of this song is really about the frustrations of living in the overload of today's World of Tech. The consequences are impaired communication and that if you advance too far you end up diminishing what you had to start with, so you are way worse off.' Enjoy a 60s Rhythm with a modern deep Bass, a Sitar, a Piano from EvilPianist, a lost flute from UniverseHuston and some Oscillators :-)

Description : A demo of one of my current projects. The chorus vocal sounds like "Aaaaraashe" to me. The song is in C# minor with a nod to C# pythagorean on the chorus. The beat on the verse was inspired by the Peter Gabriel song Intruder.
Description : This is one of my earliest productions that I did at the start of my recording career. I did not have a keyboard at the time I made this song, so I improvised and used my sister's iPad and a 5 dollar GarageBand application instead, and plugged the headset jack into into my PT6 rig and did my best to turn each individual track (which were mono and there were about 25 tracks or so) into a stereo image. Then recorded vocals over it. My computer was so old and slow that I had to mix my music and then BOUNCE it to a new session - four times. My computer (which had 512 MB RAM and an 80 GB hard drive) couldn't handle more than 8 tracks at a time or it'd stop working because the processor couldn't handle it. Took me FOREVER to do. But I got it done. Had a lot of fun doing it too, even if it isn't my "best" work. I'm still happy with it, considering I didn't have many tools to choose from at the time.
Description : Long time lurker first time poster, pretty new to production n stuff, this is my first track in Ableton Live.
was going for a darkwave/synthwave sound, reminiscent of Justice, Carpenter Brut, Perturbator, ect.
Looking for some feed back, constructive criticisms or even just your thoughts if you liked it or not. This is just a rough cut on this current WIP, just the bones of it if you will.. If you have some cool title suggestions, would love to hear those too.
Thanks for listening.

Comment much appreciated !
I really liked the vocals here.
A complex track, as Static Nomad put it. Very interesting and it groes all the way.
The vocals are from Laurie Webb's song Aren't You Clever.
& thanks !
