Hi,
I fully agree with what Steve wrote. The way you integrated Stellas vocals is really interesting. For the genre you listed, the low end might be a little on the light side, but everything is well intonated. The drive is strong, and your stubborn chord progression hits exactly where it should. Interesting and well done.
There is only one tiny thing and those who have known me for years know I am very particular about this. The ending feels a bit rushed to me. A proper final chord would have rounded it off beautifully.
But apart from that: good work also in the mix and master.
Kind of an interesting interpretation of drum and bass. Very Light on the D & B, with more of an emphasis on R&B. Sounds good, though, and in the end that's all that really matters.
LloydLand! Some awesome work here. You have perfectly captured the essence of house reaching back to my hot mix days. Yep the BMX days with Farley Jackmaster Funk! Thanks for taking me back!
We dont hear as much good house genre stuff as we'd like, especially stuff like this. Anything but Tech House lol. Also hearing Charvox on a lot of songs lately, nice work there. But we all agree - and there are 6 members of our group, including our producer Pnnywze - that this brought us back to our "Club X" days, from 97 to winter of '99. Club X was a unique and among us, legendary long-defunct night club where all of us would hang out, even back the spirit of The Monzder Squadd was taking root. Anyway some of our earliest (and best) experiences with the club scene were had in that place. I mean, it was called Club X for more than one reason lol. Remembering those days was alot of fun for us, thank you for sharing your song. Also impressive u just used an MPC to do this. They are capable of storing much more information than they once did tho. Anyway nice work!
Thank you very much for the listen and your story. I'm very grateful to hear that my track has brought back great memories for you and your squad on your "Club X" days. Appreciate it.
Very nice! Got a great beat that you could easily dance to. I really love that quick tapping sound that comes into the beat at around 0:09. It drives things forward in a very satisfying way.
Nice work sir. Like Dimestop and Richard said, a very clean mix. I love relaxing deep house with a groove I can take to the gym or for a jog. I love that bounce man.
Respect!
great house vibes bro, i could bounce to this so clean, great perc, like a harpers tap sort, the production is tight, nice arrangement and a dancer for sure Lloyd.
the MPC is a great piece of kit, lots still use it and prefer it to a DAW, and as you have proved here the results are just as good as a DAW production, i think lots use both in production also, you have brought some bangers recently bro, well done
Hello LloydLand, very nice deep house sound, vocals on this are great.....percussions and effects stand out as well, this could rock some dancefloors......great job.
I really admire the gear you use and how skillfully you handle it. The results are, of course, outstanding. You've created an excellent song on Akai's MPC using a DAWless procedure, making the most of your hardware. It is a perfect showcase of imaginative creativity. My compliments to you.
Best regards, Anthony.
Thank you very much for the listen, Anthony. Very grateful for your feedback. It's a personal preference for me to go with a DAWless procedure. I feel less distractions when working directly with the MPC, allowing me to focus on the "feel" of the music.
Great creation! But what impressed me most was reading that you don't use a DAW, that you work the old-fashioned way. That's quite an achievement these days.
Thank you very much for the listen and the feedback. Definitely a personal preference for me to work directly with hardware vs a DAW. For me, there's less distractions, which allows me to focus on the "feel" of the music.
It has been a brilliant idea, spoken words have an impact on their own, so giving them a beautiful wrap with music makes things remarkably good.
Best regards, Anthony
