hey whats up! its cure, been busy, lol... took me about 1 hour to do the whole track, a bit of a rush job still have to put it on the eq, also a bit of mind play on the vocal. by the way this track is awsome, so mutch i could do with it, european house and trance is where its at.
hey cure, im gonna stubbornly try to find the track you were talking about, btw thnx for the comment. Dunno much about european house differences, but trance often gives me inspiration to try out something new, probably cause most of the real mainstream trance is wickedly simple assembly line, take care m gonna search.
lol I was reading IGN's review on the new Need for Speed Hot Pursuit (which I defenitly wanna get!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) and this track totally got me in the right mood cuz it totally reminds me of the kind of music the play in the main menu of NFS games ;)
real nice
love the intro and the main drums :)
I fav'ed this one although I don't really know the connection between this track and my 'Acid Trance'?
thats sweet man! nfs been a while ago for me, but glad my music has any impact on the listener,
p.s.
I'm now trying to get a remix going with Jayanti's vocals (Girl from Mars-waiting for authorization) in similar theme
peace dude.
Hey Man! Like the underground techy mysterious feel of this track!
Dark and futuristic at the same time it creates a really cool atmosphere! ;) Perfect for playing in an underground rave event!
Really inventive and cool stuff! :)
Keep it up!
Faved it as well ;)
Hey I totally dig all of your lyrics, I'd love to do a collab. There has been much going on in me life lately, so I've been a lot less active online, but i will start shaping something to see where we can orient the work on. Got loads of ideas and theme hooks we can use! can't wait to see if we can shape something. hit me up anytime on me email or on looperman, perhaps you got some ideas too? I say we exchange inspirations a bit to form a tight collab, I'll email you my late ones in a few days, just gotta compile a lot of writing into something workable. The themes have a lot in common what you talk about in your lyrics, so i think we'll make it fine and prime.
Nice blend of styles here mate. And I dunno why, but for some odd reason I am reminded of that rival gang in the movie Break-in 2: Electric Boogaloo and that one scene where they have the battle under that bridge. Anyways, moving on- I think ya did a pretty good job at pairing the two together. And for a second I was half-tempted to ask ya what kind of effects ya threw onto the vocals until I saw that you wrote that they were raw in the description (perhaps that question needs to be directed @ Sireone). The grittiness of this also reminds me of the UK underground scene (parts of it atleast). Taggers doing graffiti who turn out to be Freerunners fleein from the cops. Nicely done mate. Lates!
Hi, I'm very glad you commented because this is one of my own favorite tracks and I'm surprised to receive such little feedback. Anyhow, to answer the question about the vocal-It's fully uncut and unedited in it's structure, YET it Is in fact edited with effects in reason 4. The effects are multiple and vary through out the track in their gain/application method, but the base for all of the tiny tweaks, was to FIRST put the scream distortion (overdrive) on it, and THEN add some reverb -i can't recall the patch. This is my common setup, for working with vocals, of course varying in it's installment. It gives that metallic twitch to the vocal and makes it stand out, without totally desecrating the tone of the voice. he-he i hope this makes it clearer. I got fined for doing graffiti once (5000 euros), and that's how that scene ended for me :)-also I never seen the movie but now I got a reason to live another day, gonna look it up. thanks a lot for your comment,
Lev/Neon.
I always find it interesting where our inspiration comes from. Yours is a good example. Here's mine- a long, long time ago I was inspired to make a waltz-ish glitch tune after sitting outside n smoking a cig and hearing something banging around in a nearby dryer.
Getting back to this track, I'm really digging the fluctuating synth action you've got going on here. 'Specially when mixed with that jet take-off SFX. And the percs add a nice touch, me thinks. Though I'll be honest, it'd be nice to hear a bit more on the lower end of things (like some pumping bass action to come in and compliment the bass that's already there). Other than that this is a pretty interesting composition mate.
thnx for the comment D, you're most probably right about the track being on the shallow side, thats how it was intended, as a quite empty route to expand a new theme from, which to be honest didnt get very far yet, except for utilizing a few noises from here. as for inspiration, i'd really like to point out for everyone that it's a myth, of course depending on your beliefs, but I say everyone already has everything of his/her complete package at birth and so inspiration doesn't play any role in creation, sorry if you find it disappointing, its merely my point of view. I prefer a fairly hedonistic approach, but while denying it's existence, i do have moments of inspiration myself, its just that they feel to come from the deeper self, rather than anything in our, -illusion? hehe- philosophy I find great, existentialism can get you far but Im at the point where existentialism is where I end up when i feel empty, mhm, picking up my little sister from school, casual use of drugs when alone, mastering mind over matter techniques is mostly what sets off the drive to create in me, as for a few things, while things like trying to create a model of sustainable, resource based existence on this planet and study of most random subjects within the fields of psychology, science and mysticism provide me with ideas often. Remove this comment if you don't like its size or content, but im always open to speak about such interesting subjects and find discussions upon these, healthy. Another great part of what one might call my inspiration would be life experience, with me it's quite impactful at my relatively young age i guess, experiences which i wont get into on this page. Write me an email or something I'll be really glad to talk about this and curious to know more about what you think your inspiration consists of, if you still think such thing exists. Been traveling lately, gonna check out ye page now, traveling by the way is something i enjoy more than making music. peace out, perhaps we'll clutch in the forums in the near future on some interesting discussion! peace,
Lev.
well my comment well be more about your beat.. dude it is phat. has a dark kinda vibe and very deep feel. i the kicks are placed perfectly.. i loved it man.. fav'd man. the hard bass with high reverd is just awesome made my speakers bounce man and the wired break down in the middle of the song sounds out placed, but still sounds very cool.. and the vocal tracks were sick to. a master pice
dude i saw your comment on BS's page and i thought i would look into your music.. this one is epic.. i am not a fan to much of trance music, but this has a slighty trance vibe, but soothing at the same time. a really deep song. i could not tell you anything to amp up or to cut. i loved this track brah.. great one.. 10/10 ill look over the rest of your work.. i kind ahve to know maybe you have another masterpice laying around
This is an inspiring track to listen to! I love how unconventional this song is! Great guitar accents! Awesome bass and beats! You've done some spectacular alchemy with this song! Great work! Faved for sure!
Wow, great intro, it sets this song up nicely! This has a really intense mix to it, I love that! Great groovy bass work! Those synth leads are awesome too, kind of rockin! Very good drum work, especially those fills! This is a really good fusion of styles, making for a great electronic track! Excellent work!
Wow, I love the build up on the intro! These distorted sounds are totally awesome in this setting! Definitely a unique style of trance! Great drum programming and fills! I like the subtle detuning on some of those synths! Great track! Faved for sure!
I started listenin to this and thought..WTF..BUT i kept listening and man its really really good! The way you have sort of meshed the out of time sounds with the in time sounds is great and the melodies in here are genius!!!! Well done!! Gr8 and very original work!
Appreciated :) hearing it back once again I'm thinking it would do it well if I'd cut on the percussion towards the end/middle too, thanx for yer review.
to me this sounds massive and heavy, screeching sound but somehow all together it works really well. nice how you do your rhythm, also in your other track, could you upload a few drum loops that you used in this track and ones in caliber also, please? peace,
-tray.
Caliber drum punchline is not processed yet but uploaded, as for the rest I forgot where I left my drums, they don't sound challenging without the entire piece, and I only started on improving with them. Right now I'm practicing on merging kicks. Thnx for yer comment, glad you appreciate the extent of me doing drums so far, it'll only get better, peace bro
gets me flying, somewhere out there, in the trance atmospheres... nice view truly. sounds a few bpm too fast, but totally rocks the rhythm. the end parts sound a bit choppy. It all still fits the context, unusual style and a fave of mine. Good work!
very well mixed to start off. I like how I can hear everything the whole time. Very cool effects, percussion is great, i'm glad you focused on that. Super trippy track. Does this border Psy-Goa? I vote yes! At 2:50 I really like that kick line that comes in. farrrrr outtt!
ye and great that you can hear it, I started out with a slightly higher bpm, aiming for goa psytrance kinda thing, which also was my inspiration on this one, but then added too many weight. Glad you like it.
Hey Man! Yes you are right.This is definitely an atmospheric and energetic track! Really like what you've done with it! Those haunting vocal effects sound great with it too adding to the great atmosphere created :)
Keep up the good work man! You were absolutely right to share it with us :)
I like that atmos feel in this, youre dead on about that, the rhythm really creeps in! its also very different, not standard on 2 n 4 syncopated percussion. The tiny synth details really make this track stand out, great use of altering that X n Y LFO :P
When that distinct kick comes in it really moves the track along, and when that piano like sample with the Amen breaks kicks in it REALLY makes me feel like this track deserves an extension. either that or a part two? lol This is a favorite for me, and it deserves it.
thnx scythe, cool that you could hear that manual x&y editing, cheers, partially as a result of your comment I'm thinking of a way to add part two to this track. thnx all
This is a really unique style of trance! I like that main synth arpeggio type thing, it's got a very heavy sound! To be honest there seems to be some competing rhythms in the drum beats. Maybe it's just a delay that's out of time with the tempo or something. Either way, it doesn't ruin the track. It still sounds top notch! Cool stuff!
thnx man, speaking about heavy, I was just about to start on something that i want to make an ongoing heavy wall of bass, but yer comment throws me off a bit now, since I considered this one more into ambient - very interesting stuff to think about. Making music is the best thing on this planet, passion everybody.
Also reading and hearing this back- you are absolutely right about competing drum beats. I guess i should put more effort in custom drum lines, luckily i can fall back on a friend of mine who happens to be the ex drummer of Anouk (a dutch rock band that made it to big stages a while ago, Anouk being lead vocal) I'll try to contact him and see what we can mold together.. i better get to my phone
