Hi mate, what a great sound. You really are starting to get a feel for the genre. Atmospheric is a good description or Intelligent D&B, I'm a big fan of the latter. Yes defo start with the bankers! ha ha

I'm enjoying this one very much! I especially like the drums, the fills are very well crafted! The tempo is very good for this style, and the mix sounds excellent! I kind of got bored of the vocal part after a while, but that's nothing said about your artistry or anything. Haven't been listening to much DnB lately, but I'm glad I checked this one out! Looking forward to your new tracks!

Hey Friend

Thank you for the review and support my friend, glad you enjoyed the track, sadly only had one vocal snippet to use in track, tried to place it so didn't get to boring, think it worked overall, but would have been good to have a little more, but that happens, even tried to break up the loop, but didn't sound overly good...Will be last DnB track for this year, looking forward to uploading pop track next week, then house track, then back to trance, keeping the artist that helped under chains at moment....all will be revealed when uploading...Peace n Respect matey...Mosaic....

How do we have peace on Earth? Good question and I'm sure many ideas as to how we could achieve it. First we need to make everyone in the whole world listen to this track, then listen to each other. Cool concept type song with a good point. The drums were pretty cool, not too much in your face like some dnb tracks are. It gives the track some space and allows the nice pads, vocal sample and sounds you picked to come through in places. Like it, well done on the mix, nice job mixing in the vox and a cool vibe overall.

Hope all is going great in the land down under, take care my friend!

Creative coposing ideas Mosiac...the big beat up front but those peaceful easy-flowing pads and chimes etc in the backing....neat concept....I wouldn`t know how it fits the genre...but it fits in the good listening genre for me anyway...kudos to you on trying some different genres..its not something I have yet had much success at..."Peace on earth" is not something humanity has yet accomplishes ...guess some of us are fortunate to have been born in countries that at least have a good measure of it compared to the many less fortunate tribes.....keep on....Ed

Thank you mate for stopping by, pleased you enjoy track and concept, when loading knew it wasn't going to suit everybody, agree some of us are luckier then others for sure, can only hope for world peace, don't know if achievable or not, can always hope!
Yes been enjoying branching out doing other genre's, have a very nice pop track coming next week, then house, then back to trance for sometime, Yep found the piano loops was talking about in review, haven't found track made with them yet, will look again today, if okies might upload to here...Thanks once more Ed...Peace n Respect...Mosaic...

Thy Age Old question:
When they stop acting like Cavemen, beating People, Countries over the head and taking what they want...When industries are built on resources NOT outside
of their domain...And they stand on their own not on the backs of the poorest
of the poor...When there's no more Greed....

Then there may be Peace, on Earth...

Smokin Track... Kinda knocked me back for a second, like getting kicked
into reality....If you get my drift...

Hit the nail on the head with this one: Outstanding.

Peace...TG.

Mozzy, every track that I've listen to of yours so far has some sort of semblance to it, I don't know if its the right word, but I'm always getting picture memories of things in the past, scenes I've watched in movies. A subliminal signature to your music, perhaps?

If anything, this is the scene of a bloodied guy pace walking and ready to get some retribution..

Great job, Mozzy. Looking forward to your Pop track, I need inspiration!

Thanks for the review of this one, as said to ZEE not my fav genre or easiest to do, didn't I would do another so soon to the last DnB put up, maybe got it out of my system now lol, maybe is something to do with my style on your thoughts matey not sure, maybe I do it because of what I've been through in my life, plenty of shite happened matey believe me, so very pleased mate for the review and that you enjoyed track, guessing this not going to be everybody's cup of tea so to speak track wise...Very excited about pop track mate, rate it up there with Circles Never Open but without all the hair ripping out, compared to that one this pop track was a breeze, especially with the help of the 2 talented guys from the loop, not letting names out of the bag until uploading track lol....So don't ask lol....Peace n much Respect Ozzy...Mozzy... :))

Nice intro with the sampling and break beats. This is already an improvement on your last D&B track. I like the riffs and i like the atmosphere. How do we have peace on earth? Well getting rid of the bankers would be a good start. I like the way you've kept it pretty minimal and the beats are great.
You've done a cracking job here mate. This is a really nice track to wake up to.

Bonjour Estefano ....

It is sometimes complex to be able to mix and arrange several musical sources.
I listened here several times what you have achieved, and I am impressed by your "work" ....
This is really good, and also very professional ....
All the intrumentations are in place and the voice is very distinct.
I'm really impressed with your concept .... Yes! very good realisation.

You are like a good wine, you you enhanced with time.

I like the chill vibe and the whole track sounds great. My only criticism is that there seems like there should be more of a build up in the section of the song where most of the audio drops out at the end. Other than that, I'm a fan.

Well, I'm sorry my friend for not listening to this earlier, I guess it's good to hear a version that's more perfected. And it really does sound pretty much perfect! I don't really notice any more timing issues on this version. It's pop music, so I'm not going to go to far on critisism, as it's not in line with my listening preferences. I enjoyed the piano parts very much, and the drums seemed very appropriate. Definitely sounds like it could be a popular one! Great work!

Hey Spiv

Friend thank you for the review and kind words, lol as you know this is not my genre, so basically new ground for me doing these genre's especially working with vocals, have to say this one was a nightmare to do, Instrumental was very easy to do, came up with that straight away with in first day, rest of the time was trying to get vocal to work in the piece, sounded very close but just wasn't doing it for me, nearly trashed can it many times, but in doing the piece it sounded like it had potential to be an ok track so kept fighting with it, glad I managed to get it done, so glad Bear was able to be fresh ears with track as I was over it, listening to it well over a 100 times plus, you become punch drunk so to speak and everything sounds okies, then you miss slight error's, have to say this was the most simple instrumental track to do, but one of if not the hardest track I have had to do, if that makes sense...Anyways my friend again thank you for the review and your continuing support, Have another genre coming on weekend, cinematic piece called Myths Of March...Peace n Respect dear friend...Mosaic...

Well it's good to see you've got some intelligent and helpful feedback on this. I don't see enough of that on this site, more's the pity. It should be one of the key aspects of this place. My record is six separate comments on one guy's track as he uploaded different versions, making improvements each time.

Anyway, I'm hardly a pop music fan (though of course love undeniably great stuff such The Beatles and Michael Jackson) but this sounds good to me.

I've read a little on the vocal problems you had but they seem to have all been fixed so well done with sticking at it.

Fairly chilled out but uptempo beat with a neat little bassline. Nothing to interfere with the vocals, which are the main focus. Kicking straight off with the vocals works just fine.

Quite a 'pop' sounding drum kit.

0:30 extra percussion makes think of sleigh/jingle bells. Maybe it's a tambourine.

Piano supports the vocal well and the pad provides some chillout vibe.

Ah, 1:49 I found a tiny little vocal pop 'error' (during 'them') though I imagine most people wouldn't notice it (I only have my ears so can't be sure).

And another one on 1:10 but that's probably a (lack of) pop shield problem on the vocal recording. Very minor point!

I guess the track's quite samey in terms of instrumentation but that's fine for this sort of music as it's all really about supporting that vocal so I think you've done a good job.

I've listened to this about 4 times now and I agree with a previous comment that it sounds like radio quality.

Mosaic replied 20th May 2014 - 11 years ago
Hey man

Thank you so much for a great review of this piece, yes cause a lot of grief and headaches trying to get it right, agree radio quality as previously mention, guessing that's why I keep going with the track, rather then throwing in the trash can, believe came very close a few times, on your comment of the vocals, hearing track so many times can not find fault, but could be down to the vocals have very limited FX on them, as other version load have wet vox with excess amount of FX on them so wanted to keep it cleaner in sound, overall very pleased way track turned out now, considering only used 9 loops in total including 2 of them were the vocal...Peace n Respect mate for your time and review...Mosaic...Will be doing reviews Friday so will head your way then...

These timing issues can sometimes be a real pain, as you found out. The problem is if you move something like vocals a half step in front of the beat or a half step behind, it really does make things sound a whole lot different. In the business we call that syncopation. Some music is designed for syncopation, others not so much. But you persevered and the end result really is well done, and hopefully worth it on your end. This is a solid track, well mixed, nicely balanced, and a real pleasure to listen to. Thanks for letting me lend you my ancient ears, hahaha. I hope all is well.

Thank you mate for checking it out finally, so glad to get this piece to where it is, nearly was trash can fodder, agree does have radio quality about it, prob that is why I pulled so much hair out trying to get it right as I could, on the vocal, as close as I could get them to fit sorry...even though I cant pick any errors at moment with it, maybe listening to it again in few weeks might?
This is a quantum leap compared to the version I had up earlier believe me...Peace n Respect matey...Mosaic...

Bro, I have to give you major props for sticking with it and trying to make the vox work. And they do in spots, especially from the 2:38 mark to the end. But the verses are just not quite in synch through the first 2:38 of the song. My advice, the music is outstanding, so perhaps keep only the chorus parts, or just get rid of the vocals altogether. Instead of trying to mesh the vox into the track, perhaps change to a synth lead or something and not worry about the vocals. As I said, the backing track is outstanding. The vox are what are really throwing this one off. Kudos for your determination. I admire your tenacity. I would have given up a long time ago. I hope all is well and that the hair is growing back in the spots this song made you pull, haha.

This piece is killing me, slowly but surely, seriously just feel like throwing in the trash can, that's how much it has pissed me off, seriously think it is the effects more then anything on the vocals that are driving me crazy, might do what you said get rid of this version for now and look at the dry vocals to add to it at a later date, seriously think that will make a big difference, will private message you with email addy so you can point out what parts to remove etc, will upload instrumental version in next half hour, would be good if you check that out for me, will go sort that out now...Peace mate and thank you...Mosaic...So will hide this one once again...

Ok right at the 30 second mark. Go into Acid and make the measure margins to 64th or 128th notes. there you can manipulate the vocal loop to be just a hare forward. I hear the vocals starting just a little bit soon. Play with that and you will see (hear) what works for this track. It's a great track, just needs the sync of the vox. I think the tempo is ok for the vox, just needs to fit the beat. Your gonna get it right soon, I believe that!

Sounds like this one was giving you fits, lol. I am listening to a newer and revised version I would guess. It sounds fine to me. To me the vocals seem to come in on the "and" between 1 and 2 as you are counting it off. I can see why it would be tricky lining up the vocals. Adding vocals adds a new dimension to the mix, literally. I have tried using some a capellas that were just a little off timed and it was tough, I had to chop them up to get them to fit properly.

The music is fine, upbeat, dig the piano here. Bouncy cool bass. On listen 3 now. I like the delay on the vocals. Cool pop track, a bit towards the dance end of the spectrum. I like it, dig the woman's vocals, they add a nice touch.

Well done, hope you are satisfied with it! Sound good for a new genre you are trying out.

Interesting concept here. I'll be honest, I love the sections from 1:14 thru 2:00 and again at the 3:30 thru the end. Seems like the vocals mesh really well with the instruments on those two sections.

The other parts of the song have a lot of syncopation which adds to the feeling that those sections are just a bit off beat. But it works, and that's the amazing thing about it all. I enjoyed the effort and think you should try another rock tune. You have a feel for the genre. I hope all is well.

Urgh I feel so frustrated for you. X3
You did a good job of the music but again it's the vocals that are letting this down, I think they're not synced right or something? I don't know. But if you get them to fit perfectly; you sir will have a really nice track on your hands! But yeah the syncing is honestly the only negative thing I can say about this. Everything else is good. :)

Thank you for feedback, been frustrating track to get right, guessing more so as it is not my referred genre to do, so all new to me, going to look at adding some delay to vocals when get chance when not at work as suggested by Crucethus, hopefully will make the difference, fingers crossed anyways, agree it is a nice piece, fairly catchy I think, considering amount of samples used to make it, Thanks once again mate...Pleased you enjoyed mostly...Peace Mosaic...

Ok now that you have synched.. there is still a disjoint. try delaying the vox slightly to to the beats as it still sounds just a hare off. what loop program are you using? FL or Acid. The vocals sound almost a slight bit rushed to these ancient ears and I think if you adjust with just a hare trigger to the future they would match better. Please let me know...this is good work and has great potential.

Hey Steve

Thanks again for giving feedback one again, really appreciated, I use acid pro7 for my works, because of my lack of loops for this type of genre, struggled to get loops all at same tempo, guessing that is why you are picking up what you are, used a total of 9 loops to make the piece, that's including both sets of vocals, so as I said a simple track, will try and add delay when not working to see if that helps, guessing still sounds okies, but like you said could even be better, thank you again for feedback, that is what makes us grow and become hopefully better at what we do...Any thoughts on anything else...you can contact me via tab...Again many thanks for your help Steve...Peace Mosaic...
