Description : It has absolutely nothing in common with stuff by Robbie Williams. So if you're into Robbie, then it's probably not your bag.

Hey FR

Surprised I hadn't gotten to this one before, could really see this going off in a night club, brilliant clarity and arrangement my friend, liked the vocal, sort of was left waiting for more to come in later in the mix, but never arrived which was a little bit of a downer:(
Listening to this tune dude, makes me want to have another go at this genre, a genre I haven't done for many years now, even though I do like doing the genre, so maybe next few weeks will give it a go...impressive man...FAV'D...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...

I noticed you have a lot of techno tracks here, and every

track sounds very professional. That spoken word sounds like:

"F**K TOURISM" haha... Great work man ;)

Damn, this reminds me of some bad times in clubs. This is very powerful stuff and some of the kind of music that would really drill into my head in darkened clubs late at night.

Lots of metallic sounds going on here.

1:12 spoken words are a bit of a surprise. Feel like they probably need some reverb. They certainly jump out at you.

I have no idea why you mentioned Robbie Williams. As you have, I'll say I'd like to hear a remix of one of his tracks done in exactly this style. That would be weird.

Based on the other comments, I think we all know what this reminds us of. Dark, moody club. And almost certainly a lot of drugs involved. Not for me, but certainly for some.

I should add that's it well produced. Otherwise, I find it a bit hard to analyse and appraise.

My fave sound is 4:27 insane note that just keeps going and going. Is that just one hardware synth note plus various knob twiddling?

Ends a bit abruptly!

Is that the club's sound system being switched off and the lights coming on?

Sorry for the tardy reply. I've been meaning to get more involved with the site for a while but haven't been able to actually finish any tracks. I thought i'd better drop by and catch up with the folks who have been kind enough to listen to some of my stuff, so thanks for the review and ideas.

The vocals were good. But with them only being used in the one spot, they almost seem they don't belong. It would be neat to hear them chopped and used throughout the entire track. That's my only thing with it. Other than that, I really dig it, man. Especially how all of the synths have a metallic resonance that make you want to give your brain a tetanus shot. Good work, man.

Take care.

What makes it great is that you've considered every second of this and worked it with so much care and attention. Best drop for months - at 1:28 you actually start feeling yourself coming up...:) Whoosh ;0

...Until the end, when the cops seem to burst in and switch the lights on.

Bummer.

Whoa, I wasn't sold on this track until the break and the following build up, holy crap that's potent! The panning and mixing sound great in that build! It is kind of a flashback to like 2004 or something I think for me, but that may not be accurate so don't quote me on that, I'll just say that it seems like a different life. Thanks for the comfortably disturbing recollections! Faved for sure!

Cheers Spiv.
I've not been finishing any tracks recently and this is the first one i've (sort of) made it to the end with so i figured i might as well post it.
Glad you could stop by for a listen.

Bangin techno mate, not really my thing but the production sounds spot on! Even on my in-earphones!! Its quite dark as I'am listening to it again, it doesn't swing both ways not like that other p$*%k I am glad to say!! Nice mate!

FreeRadical replied 22nd Dec 2013 - 11 years ago
Ha ha! It's about the only track i've finished for ages so i thought i might as well post it. I've been a bit lacking in inspiration and techno doesn't require much effort, so techno it is.
Anyway cheers for dropping in and leaving comments on this piece of cock custard.

Chased haha great description! I feel that for sure :D Mix sounds good to me. Downward we spiral as we're being chased by.... that just adds to feeling of fear no knowing what is chasing us 3:) Love it! Great track here! You should fade out the end instead of just stopping, My only suggestion here.

FreeRadical replied 21st Dec 2013 - 11 years ago
Yeah it does kind of stop pretty abruptly. I'll probably play around with it a little more before i move on to the next one.
Thanks for dropping by and leaving your thoughts on the track.

Hey man, how ya been? Glad your back putting up some tunes. Really dig this. I like how the song seems to attack, the synths are very aggressive(to steal another reviewer's word) and they give that great feeling of intensity, like a feeling of being chased in a movie. Welcome back!

Your tracks are still amongst the most powerful ones here to me, my dear N !! I'm so glad you're back !
Laughed at your words about Robbie, your descriptions also are inimitable !
I'm not a techno fan but listening to your track was a pleasure as you constantly titillate the listener's interest.
Very nice listening . Perfect to start the week with .
Thanks a lot my friend,
Do take care,

Yeah i'm going to move away from techno as i probably make far too much of it. It some how means that little bit more when someone goes out of their comfort zone to listen to a track.
Thanks for stopping by Carole and leaving your thougts as always.

I'm not a techno fan but this wasn't bad at all.... maybe because of the Need For Speed Type Tune going on in it :)

Very aggressive psychotic track, pretty good. The vocal effects are pretty fun and a good way to progress to the new part. Nice use of reverb throughout the track gives you a feeling of bit of spacy track which is nice. Thanks for sharing
FreeRadical
FreeRadical replied 15th Dec 2013 - 11 years ago
Thanks, It probably needs a bit of mixing down as i did it all wearing headphones (which usually leads to dissapointment when i play it back on a sound system.)
Thanks for stopping by and checking out this tune.

Description : A short minimal tech track that I made earlier this year. It's about understanding a wild animal's loneliness, fear, and pain. I would understand if they hated me, and for sure "Us." I hope it effects you. I released this on Soundcloud previously, but thought the Looperfam might get into it. You can get the new Spivkurl album "Charting The Anomaly," which includes this track at the We Are... Records Capitalist Market found here: http://www.wearerecords.com/capitalistmarket.html

Mysterious intro continued by a hypnotic yet very energetic trip through different techno productions. I have at least 2 more techno parts to add and a few more scary booby traps. All together a 3/4 more mins to stack behind it. After that i'll run through the piece again, finalize mixing, master it and upload incl. download. Any feedback is welcome! MMMMMMMH FRESH MEAT!
