Yo.

I'm really just commenting to say that I'm very much enjoying listening to this one again.

I couldn't tell from your track description if you've updated it (eg in the last two weeks) and I'm not sure if I'm hearing anything other than before when I reviewed it.

So, it's a rare review from me as I don't have much more to add on previous reviews. But I think it's worth saying that, a couple of months later, it still sounds great to me.
I'd be very interested to know how people's views might change/progress over time listening to my music. I'm sure that would happen quite a bit. Maybe it does with most music.

But for that to happen, I'd have to get round to releasing some goddamn material as I have so much of it. Probably about 12-14 albums now.

Big congrats again on a pumping, well mixed track.

Oh look - in the end I did say a fair bit. I just can't help it...

nice!

Yo again, Outdoors Chap.

I have no idea what 'dubstairs' is. No doubt just your little dubstep joke, which I like. Probably more than I like most dubstep, though I'm talking more about the type of harsh, growling dubstep people obsess over. You know the kind - no actual dub in there. Original dubstep, which is just a wobbling progression of dub, is actually pretty cool.

But this sort of unmusical, effects-obsessed, histrionic stuff that's always brickwall mastered I find pretty damn horrible.

You can hear some dubstep-style bass wobbling (LFO automation) in my track A Little Bit Of Infinity but it's a very musical piece rather than just someone wobbling away because they have no other, more musical elements to add.

Anyway, yes I can see the track was built around the bass. That's quite common and how I also often work. No, "cute" synth seems pretty good. But go ahead and modify it or switch it out for another if you think you can do better. If you think you can do better, you probably can.

Yes, sub time is good. I'd like to get more sub stuff into my music but it can be tricky. I think it might work best if you leave things sparser on top of the sub. So, maybe have sub and then higher frequency stuff so not much midrange. Just a theory - I'm not a technical sound guy whatsoever.

I'd prefer to hear you do something with fat grooves that isn't just a club track (I know you can). I tend to find that more musical and interesting. Club tracks have to be very good for me not to be bored. I wasn't bored with this one (I prefer Klokwerk) but I'd probably rather the elements were used as a fat groove 80-110 BPM thing. Just my preference.

Take care.

I haven't heard this sick electro bass in mainstream house for a while, and I didn't regret when I clicked the play button. Really nice job :)

Hey, this is pretty cool! Definitely has a dubstep edge, even with it's "full time" rhythms. Anymore, I can take or leave dubstep, but hearing elements of the style used in a creative way is generally enjoyable. I'm not sure what you meant by the "blocky noises"... It's hard to tell why you would experience this on looperman only with your songs. It's possible that there is minor clipping and looperman's streaming method is more sensitive to this??? don't know. Very much a club sort of feel to this, and while I've never been a clubber, I can appreciate the vibes... after all I have been a high roller at times. The last section is quite potent. How's the hardware transition going? Good song man!

sweet track man loving the beat

I like it! Does need more work from the percussion side of things; but you can fix that.

Keep it up!

Greetings.

More solid dance stuff from you. I like it but don't love it. But then I'm not exactly a house guy so nothing for you to worry about.

First synths are quite compelling and almost "cute". Bassline is strong and gets filtered a bit later to become prominent. Drums are dry and tight. No criticism of them

1:00 and it's sub time! Lead synth gets much cooler. The little effected bits just before the start of the new bar are especially cool.

Drumless breakdown and then the rise back into same as before, with added percussion to move things forward a bit.

2:28 and it's getting more dubsteppy. People love that kind of stuff.

Not that uch new stuff after that for me to comment on (apart from some strings). But it's decent dance stuff that will definitely get people moving. I wouldn't actively listen to it at home but I'd be happy for it to be playing.

Just some of my thoughts though I can't imagine they're of much use.
