Went directly to this track because of the title. For a while now I've been thinking of music itself (as a language) as an "emotional amalgam" or "aggregate." What you've done in terms of fusing genres and traditions really solidifies this idea for me.

I kind of had the same reaction to the beginning as Dextdee, but on the second listen I feel like that it adds a necessary tension that's resolved and is actually more satisfying that it would be without that initial sense.

I like this!

You're right the synths in this are very beautiful! Nice progression and arrangement! I like the claps and finger snaps, they really bring the rhythm together. Very relaxing song! Nice work!

Blunts...this is freakin' amazing! Awesome 8bit tumbles in there. The melody is epic, I like when you thicken it up with the synth guitars. The production is nice and robust, too. Definately diggin the dubstep beat and bass (great wobble and tone on the bass, BTW) with all the trancy synth pads.... Its like cinematic dubstep. I like how everything kind of sounds re-sampled. Great work!

thanks a lot man, means alot comin from you after hearin some of your stuff! I am glad you noticed the synth guitars, thats prolly my favorite part haha.

on Melodic Filth by BluntsAndBeats
diggin the intro. ima sucker for piano melodies..
it fits together really well.
love when everything drops off except that little organ sound.
there was like one little wobble that kinda comes at you a bit more than the others do. dont know if that was intentional or not.
its a good smooth dubstep breakthrough track!
keept it up homie!

-celest

UPDATE (8-21-10)
right around 0:48 when the "WAOW WAOW WA WAOW" hits, the 3rd wobble comes a little bit harder than the other 3. sounds to me like you have a phaser on it and that might just happen to be when it swells out at you. which if thats the case maybe try soothing the phaser a bit. its nothing BAD that will kill the song, just something that happened to catch my ears. once again, keep up the good work homie!!
BluntsAndBeats
BluntsAndBeats replied Unknown
thanks for taking time to listen and review man, i appreciate the honesty. if you can be more specific on the time of the wobble that you thought was a bit off, it would help me. I mix through 40$ headphones so its not always so accurate. again thanks :)

update 9/18/2010

thanks man for the update!! i just now saw this, i wish i got an email for updates! will have to fix that, thanks for the tips!

to be honest with u man when the track started i did not really like it, but after 30 secs when everything kicked in with the melody. so i rephrase, really good compilation here. and it is a big fusion of many other genres if u did not notice, sometimes i heard hip hop, sometimes i heard electronic and others
nice work on this one. i really like it and enjoyed listening to it.

I just checked out your beat and i need to put vocals to it, if you understand :) As a songwriter/rapper I dont choose the beats they choose me and this one did, I can hear words to the music. Let me know if you would want to colab!
BluntsAndBeats
BluntsAndBeats replied Unknown
I would love to collab man, email me at enthused1286@gmail.com and I can send you a copy. Throw whatever lyrics/vocals you want on it, and any other songs of mine :) I have no way to do vocals so this is kinda cool for me.

Good one.

Epic.

Spreading Bass Pad is my initial fav. The entire beat is just filthy. I'm starting to hear lyrics too. maybe something like;

Some times some things
You can never take back
So keep rollin on
Don't ever look back

I don't know its your track, and I'm sure whatever you do with it will be awesome. Props again B'n'B. Burnin down for this one.
NOICE WORK!!!

Im feelin it B&B, I can even picture an mc on this, if there was a nice soothing female voice for the chorus. Either way beat is legit, drums are my favorite

What else can I say that hasn't been said? Scooby Doo scoops his own poo. JK this track has plenty of layers that interplay nicely, the chopped up filtered synth is sick, drums are insanely lovely, melody is captivating, bass line is subtle yet powerful (huh?), keyboard is playful around 1:30, effect at 2:15 is discombobulating, synthline at 2:40 is fitting. Roger roger check check. - DF

I love when people are blending genres, and makes it sound like this. Like total awesomeness. Great mixdown, even everything seems to be in perfect balance.
Very good job on this one Blunts.

What a very unique electronic track you have on your hands. I like the progression from quirky synths into the electronic guitar. The overall vibe on this track is very chilled and sort of reflective. Would definitely jam this on Hippy Hill in California. Keep the music alive bro :)

hey djwings thanks alot, it means so much! i would love to visit and share music @ hippy hill, it sounds like an amazing lil place from what ive heard.
