Bravo maestro!!

Hello ....

Even here, legs itch me .... This is really good, and as I've already written on another page .... "which leads us to slam fingers, and in a frenzy of dance.
Congratulations! very very interesting orchestration. You are a master" ....

and I would add: "in your genre" .... don't change anything.

This is very nice. Great construction and lovely synth work and I think the echo timings are pretty tight. The filter cut offs are smoothly opened and closed and blend beautifully.

I like that every idea comes and goes about the right speed, with hardly any flat spots where nothing new happens, which holds the attention throughout. Solos are top notch.

Not sure about that skip at 6.35, others might disagree :)

It's a good mix of genre as others have said...I get that totally, and it reminds me a little of Steve Hillage's greatest ever piece called Cyberboogie, for a long forgotten computer game, but is just fantastic...

Well done anyway! Really enjoyable listen.

Well, I didn't plan to write so much. But, once I got started, I kept finding so many things I needed to mention and praise. Gotta let you know I noticed them. You've probably noticed by now that I write as much as or more than pretty much anyone on this site.

Check out all of Underworld's stuff. Their most popular are their first two albums from the 90s but my favourite is the bizarrely titled Beaucoup Fish. It contain tracks like the aforementioned Jumbo and outrageously good, groovy dance classics like this absolute monster:

Underworld - Shudder / King of Snake

So, I of course listened again. 4:26 is that funky, filtered guitar? I'm not sure but if it's just synth, it's very guitar-like and clipped and funky.

That other lead, chilled guitar seems to sound better this time though perhaps doesn't fully develop into something more powerful.

Sorry, but I still don't think you've got the stutter edit right. It's awkward and out of time, needs to last a couple of beats more or not stutter at all, just go into the slowdown effect at the end. Gotta be careful to get stutter edits right.

Check out the killer hip hop stutter edit stuff from another 90s classic electronic act, the Chemical Brothers. This is done brilliantly and I've seen it screw people up trying to dance live at Glastonbury (I was there watching this in 1997).

Man this is a great track. really enjoy it keep making more of these!!

Nice number you have here, liked the feel of this, put me in a good mood. Pretty upbeat for chillout but it's great music to paint to or just having it play around the house in the background. Mix sounds clean, nice job!

Great Track bro. Fav'd for sure!!

Yo. You're really very good at this upbeat chillout thing.

A term I came up with in my teenage years, and one style of music I knew I really wanted to make, was 'upbeat ambient'. I probably also enjoyed the supposed contradiction there.

Here's a wonderful bit of upbeat ambient from a group very influential to me in my teenage years:

Underworld - Jumbo (Album Version)

Back to your track:

Good, held-note pre-intro. Then arpeggiated part is cool and driven along nicely those tasty reverbed, kickless drums (kickless so you can make the track take off when you bring it in).

Tat's a pretty mean and massive kick - sort of takes this more into a harder type of dance than chillout stuff. As does your big bassline on 1:58.

Everything's sitting very nicely - sounds like it could go on for ages. What's that crunch you have at the start of the bar eg 2:27? Sounds like some distortion there.

Very tasty little keyboard fill on 2:34 and pleasant, sparse little solo after that.

3:26 it sounds like a vocal has come it. No, something else - maybe even guitar.

Really banging now.

4:25 and we is gettin funky. But only for 15 secs or so. Gotta get back to main banging theme.

Next couple of minutes are enjoyable returns to previous themes, without doing anything especially new in them. Net awesome thing for me is fill at 6:37.

So, you've done some sort of stutter edit there and then slow down. However, I'd say you haven't got it right yet Needs to be smoother. Sounds a bit too awkward before the slowdown eg on 6:34. Should probably continue for a couple more measures. Sounds too much like and effect gone a bit wrong rather than a cool way that the track moves. I still like it - I just know you can make it better and more natural-sounding.

Not so keen on the fadeout ending but the rest was damn cool. Good length too.

That should give you a few things to think about!

it's always a pleasure to listen to your wonderfull synth usage . I have always loved your musical elegance & selected levigated sound . JennY is a very good singer for such msuical styles as U usualy use her pellas . althoughT track was perfect as well too . I really having no guess what are U waiting for to publish a professional stylish album ! take care Steve . best wishes my tallented friend.___Behnam
