War, when is it coming? War by computer, destroy the infrastructure using code. starve the people by decimating the digital experience. You have captured that here.

The intro really spoke to me! I'm not one who listens to industrial but this was quite an entertaining listen! I like the changing patterns and BPM, really told a story using such strange effects. The highs were a bit harsh, as others have mentioned; this is my only critique of the song. The structure and the story, everything was done well. Great work! Thumbs on this one. You're pretty good at this stuff, if I may so myself.
What I like about this is you didn't take the route of sound effects like helicopters and machine guns men screaming etc. Easy to do that way but not as artistic.
You took the artistic route and painted the mood and the place without recourse to that. Nice angry feel to it.
There's room for some blood to spilled now I think .....
I don't normally listen to industrial like this but I like it.
Maybe I would suggest using some limiting or compression to tone down those highs a bit. Also, I would add something more bassy and flat, without a lot of trebble attack. I think the music has too much highpitced sounds all the time, could have less, be more dynamic. Just my opinion though.
Keep it up man :)
there is a lot of power in music both to purge our own frustrations and to effect change in the world. this could very well be an anthem for the true uprising against the waves of violence rocking the world right now. Civilized society understands restraint - but there is power in restraint. I feel restraint as well as power in your driving track. Fav. Dan
Thank you Dan, I couldn't agree more... It probably took you no more than five minutes to listen and comment but what you wrote has given me a perspective that will last a lifetime. This is why I love music (and musicians!). Many thanks :)
Man, this is some track! I agree with Danke, I would think it's Industrial, but on the other hand who cares for tags and clarifications? Even if there was no description from you I can sense the anger and frustration, so you did a good job in transforming this via electronic music, which is much harder than when you play a stringed instrument for instance. Hope you feel better now, too.
Hahhh...what a dangerous and special track (maybe just for me, cause I donno dnb) but I feel it's a special segment of that style...it easily could be industrial or weird too...the frustration is of course there after a terror attack like that...no comment...
Nah I'm joking.. Don't do drugs... Honestly dude I haven't the faintest idea... I just do, it comes out... My approach? Heavy metal is dead, time to bring the heavy music into the future.. A more technical answer, lots of experimentation, automation, rule breaking and above all ya just gotta feel it man.. Thanks for listening it's much appreciated :)
This is pretty crazy man! Music like this can adjust your attitude on the spot. I just listened to something completely different a few minutes ago and while this was playing my blood pressure went up 40 points, lol!!
Great idea overall and excellent execution all around on it's construction and mix!! Totally dig it!!
Hey Met...I`m diggin this one...Mary actually did have a little lamb..If I can`t come up with a melody in my head when I`m playing I just recite one of those little old nursery rhymes to myself while I play so I don`t hit more notes than necessary..man...this is creative stuff (not the usual canned stuff we hear a lot of on radios)...I really respect artists who create their own sounds rather than try to emulate ones we heard already...great job....Ed
That's not a bad idea! I usually just go with the flow and my imagination does the rest.
Thanks man! I want to cut this down, deepen & lengthen particular sections...
My trick is having no idea what I'm doing!
Field recording is a sure fire way to add a little uniqueness.
Last year I worked on the rails for my City's Metrolink system and when the trams were stabled they would produce this noise that sounded like the coming of the four horsemen! The problem was it sounded off at random times so I could never catch it!
Love the intro. After that was expecting it to explode more, still, I do like your weird rythm thing, much more interesting than general mainstream dubstep.
That's a good ear you have there.. It did explode a little more originally, I brought down the decay on the first bass sound to experiment.. I thought it sounded groovier.
Hah, the rhyme was a last minute addition.. I may expand on it :)
Ableton drum rack mannn that thing makes everything so much easier I literally write entire tracks using that! Quickest way to mess around with stuff
and that's sick that you used real life sounds and stuff like L4D I love that game! that's what creativity should be about big up from me man! keep it coming
I don't use vst drums.. I use samples that I've either grabbed from somewhere or recorded myself.. Combined, manipulated, processed.. The snare is my favourite.. It's a combination of a metal baseball bat hitting the big ass bin at my work with two axe hit sounds from Left for Dead and a standard DnB styled snare, taken from an Amen break.. Still needs more work though.
But if you mean DAW, I use Ableton and the in built drum rack to host my samples.
Dude, you got some whack sounds on this. It's got a swing to it. Just curious, are you mixing loops or is this from scratch? And ya gotta love some new cans right? What did you end up getting?

Thank you, you'll be glad to hear there are more added now and, I hope, I've fixed the mix, it was quite lack lustre.
I really appreciate your generous comments :D

It didn't feel right doing such a thing, I entertained the idea, put it into a few bars, it felt very cheap & generic so I removed it .
Even more room now it's complete! I hope you enjoy the final version :)

I agree, I always have too much high-end, I've been experimenting with how to bring it down, with moderate success, although this is a first draft..
My ears are in need of a Doctor.
Thanks for listening dude and even more for your suggestions, I'll be sure to keep them in mind when I come back to this :)

When I say microphone, the same goes for anything being directly inputted to your interface/soundcard. Mic, synth, bass whatever.
The volume difference you are hearing is your soundcard bringing down the levels of everything not being recorded/inputted at that time.
Again, it has no effect on levels within the DAW itself...so your mixes are just LOUD \m/ .. \m/

From scratch dude, I'm not a fan of looping, synth and sampling all the way.
