I love me some industrial, and this song does not disappoint! As a matter of fact I love it! Those are some grooving synths, and the 4 on the floor effect is not lost on me. The vocal samples were cool, though I'll admit that the actual words went right over my head... alcohol will do that. Either way, this is totally my style of track! Adding to favorites!
Gran tema industrial, también lo encuadraría como banda sonora de alguna película de ciencia ficción, me gusta mucho como suena. Gran trabajo amigo Valve. Paz y salud.
Nice work. I've noticed industrial elements resurfacing with better sound quality in a number of genres. Nothing wrong with a little 4 on the floor, especially when you have the right timbres... likin that noise-snare, once again, nice work.
Thanks, man. I appreciate you taking time to listen and comment.
I made that snare in sylenth1 by layering a Noise setting in one OSC, and a sinewave in a second OSC. Adjusted the ADSR and the High-pass, and bam-o! Noise snare!
Hi ValveDriver, I really like the boom-in at 1:04s, the sounds are truly classic sounding and the snare has really good presence; the sounds at the break definitely gives the track a darky-edge, the drone-like sounds remind me of Contact; by the time 3:mins in, the semi-acid synth works nicely with the snare/kick--it keeps it moving. Only thing I could think is that it doesn't feel like it has a "theme", it pretty much runs the same nearly throughout. A melody change or addition, perhaps a section that leaves off some instruments and then a bit later brings them back. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for listening and commenting. I appreciate the feedback for sure.
As far as the "theme" goes, yeah. There really wasn't one. Typically there is in my work, but this one was kind of the one off dam-breaker. I've been in a creative slump for about a year and I had to finish SOMETHING in hopes that it would get things moving again. I guess we'll see, huh?
Again, thanks for the taking the time, and like I said, I truly appreciate your input.
Great soundscape. There is a lot of details in your drums. I like the metallic low-siizling noise generator modulator stuff. It can hear a lot of different qualities of dynamics in your instruments. razer sharp but also set in an hell of a room. I´can almost touch the instruemts but also get knocked down by them. Im working on my next tour and i tried wo find a title track to get up on stage. I can´t imagine another track. would be nice if we can get in contact.
Hey Aaron, my master of darkness ! Excellent production as always.
The intro sets the tone for the track really nicely and everything else just flows smoothly throughout. It really has a kind of cinematic touch as someone already mentioned. Absolutely well done my friend...keep 'em coming !:)
Leon, thanks for stopping by. I always appreciate it when you do.
Like I said to Jynxz about the cinematic aspects, I think the reason that always seems to happen is because I'm an artist first, and a musician second. I have a very visual imagination and the music ends up being the soundtrack of my minds eye. Like I said to him, "I paint with sound". I guess maybe that's where the "signature" Valvedriver sound comes from, huh?
I'm also glad this is getting a few positive comments because it's not my typical style. Not to mention it was one of those half-forced projects. I've been in a creative slump for almost year and needed to complete SOMETHING. So, to have a half-assed project still come out okay is fine by me.
Again, thank you for taking the time time to listen and comment. I always have looked forward to hearing your opinions. There aren't a whole lot of people left here that used to be. So, it's good to hear a familiar voice, too.
This track has a "Cinematic" feel to it, to me, I could imagine hearing this behind a action movie. It's super clean and crisp your tracks always are. Great track.
Thanks, man. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Most of my work does have a cinematic feel to it. I'm not sure how it happens, I never mean for it too. Maybe because I paint with sound? Who knows?
Great sound production on this and very skilfully put together with vox and synths and beats nicely interwoven with some cool transitions and breaks adding interest and keeping the listener engaged
Real dark track Valve, drum and bass are both arse kickin, synth work is great, with great, impacts and drops, the vox are spot on and sound production quality
Thanks man. I reworked a few parts of it since you commented. I made a few adjustments on the secondary kick levels, and added a whole new synth-arp. It's still basically the same though.
Thanks for listening and commenting. I appreciate it.
Take care.

Description : My grandmother was from Belarus. She was the lone survivor of her family after the Waffen SS massacred everyone in her village during a retreat from the Red Army. She escaped soviet occupied Belarus & through a series of wranglings by the international red cross, found a family to adopt her in New Jersey in 1947. She was 14 years old then. She was the strongest person I ever knew & I miss her terribly. This song is for her.
Description : Not really 'industrial' although some aspects might fit with the genre...generally robots and stuff...hehe...and a hint of heavy metal is also there...:)
Description : I used Serum and Sylenth1 to create all the synths and basslines. It's not dubstep, and it's not Drum and Bass, but it's elements are heavily drawn from both to create an experimental industrial track in it's own class. It's heavy, aggressive, and driving. Either you will like it, or you won't. I don't think there will be an in-between. Take care. V.
Description : Another weird blending of genres I am working on. Track was all composed by myself using some sampling and an old 1983 Memphis Strat of which I am totally rusty on due to a serious left hand/wrist injury several years back.
It's been a long time since I've made anything so... Metabolical? It's chaotic, fast and drum driven. Yet to go through mastering. To add a heavy bass or not?
Description : The legendary Grim Reaper is dead but that didn't stop him to play is last dark Industrial metal song. This is the first time I try to make a metal track and I may be crazy to accept my own challenge.Im pretty proud about my result any constructive comments are welcome others kind of comments too. Special thanks for 3 person who helped me a lot for making this heavy metal track: metaled for his extra vocals (part 2 and 4) HeinzFourie for his main vocals( part 1 ,3 and 4) SintheticRecords for his awesome drum loops(I did add some fx) Extended version here https://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/168304
Description : Started off as a rework of an old song. morphed into some kind of IDM style song. Really came together after I happened upon some of MetalEd's acapellas. This one was a perfect fit. Sounds like some fightin' music
Much Love- EazyBeatz1250
