Anyways I gotta say man around the 1:30 mark where the piano chords and the voices and distant gunshots came in there came about a eerie and powerful feeling that gave me the goosebumps. Not many tracks do that. Then at the same time that transitioned to a more uplifting and bouncy tracks. It created this nice contrast.
Great job I really liked it!
I am deeply humbled by your response. My goal was to make a house tune that would stop people in their tracks and have to think about war.
Your comment about the piano part giving you goosebumps gave me goosebumps. That's what I wanted for this tune.
I appreciate your comments

Just to say to you that I've been trying to apply external thoughts/concepts on sidechain compression which I guess is very crucial in/at house genres. In other words I have tried sidechain compression but couldn't even touch that kick light/delight pumping as present on on your track.
Very cool one track otherwise!
Sorry for a comment in negative regarding to my efforts. I truly enjoyed listening!
Best to you, Alex

I made a track in the middle of the 90's with the name - shutup and dance! - Right now i would love to say that loud to all this "War horny leaders and followers"
This is a nice one Steve. Didn't listen to it befor, cause it came up befor i was on looperman. So nice that you updated it and i see it :)
stay tuned

Wise words my friend. Wise words.

Your title is pretty much composition philosophy/technique - keep throwing stuff at a track and see what sticks and keep on going until you hit on a really cool riff, fill or whatever.
Anyway: I like this.
Intro has a bit of fairground organ feel. That's what they play on the trance Merry-Go-Round.
0:07 much dirtier and then a bit of a music box type of melody and sound.
When that dirty top line kicks in 0:31, it all comes together, even without that much of a bassline. That is such a cool riff. What is it? It's quite a bit guitarey.
This has some of the dirt of grunge but it's very much a dance track so congrats on bringing those genres together - something I also like to do.
2:50 bongo grooves plus metallic percussion are good.
3:36 another synth with some cool movement and timbre, getting more intense around 3:52. shit building nicely before the next breakdown.
4:23 and it sounds a bit like a DJ changing record. Definitely at 4:38 as it sounds like a new track.
Aha my fave riff is returning but then drops out a little before 5:34 when another synth part takes over.
6:07 bassier synth moving about playfully.
Ending is too abrupt though I know it can be hard to do something else that fits nicely.
Overall: an accomplished piece of genre-merging dance skill.

Not Exactly as I was very new to this at the time as I did it adn I really had no idea what I was doing or why I was doing it but it seemed to work when I mixed this with that and then with this I would mix that. It's my first post on looperman and one of the early tracks using Acid. It also was the genesis for me to start mixing genres, and that that was OK to do that. I should go back and remix this, but I think I will leave it as a monument like in a museum. It will remind me where I have come from.

I also enjoy this track since its a mix of many genre with that stategy you can make more favorite since more people will at least like 1 or mutiple part of that track.
finally I foud that funny for the intro to have a cute and innocent xylophone with a beast and a bit creepy bass sound.
like the title of your track keep it going
Peace.
