I like it, lots of variations but can't specify like the musicians among us.
Now sorry for my comment: I listened with studio speakers and audio headset and heard something strange. From 00:23 to 01:24 I experienced a distortion. So I took the studio headset and heard a sub bass. After running the sound through an EQ I found a 20-35 Hz frequency that is considerably louder than the rest.
Again sorry if this was intentional and my equipment is simply not up to par :-)

That intro makes me imagine a scene where the good guy is sneaking into a huge building and taking out bad guys along the way! A true visionary you have always been, welcome back old man!

trop bien

Pretty wild man, so much going on and ever evolving. Fantastic synth work and like Dennel I was thinking funk when I heard that bass line at the start. All the best Zoot.

Welcome back.
They always come back where it all starts lol
Nice track with great a kind of bass sound...wow!!

Euro -techno to the max indeed! This track was slammin' big time, I like how you opened up the track with some funky bass accents. From 0:53 to about 1:09 that thunderous kick drum was working out my headphones lol! A very fun and enjoyable track to groove to. I also like that you did several musical change ups heading towards the end part of the track.

Very nice production and sound quality.

I agree with Richard, this is 100eel-good song mate :) great work!
And pretty amazing the Yamaha still works, but 199 back in 1997 bought you pretty much a car or a small house I think ;)

Steven! Youve put all the notable funk ingredients for this solid and enjoyable work here. Drums and that thumping bass is whats up! The section starting at about 3:22 is scandalous funk. You know the head bobbing kind LOL. Really great work here. Gotta drop that FAVE! Peace.

I started feeling it around 1:24such a great, positive vibe that makes you move. And the fact that you pulled this from decades ago shows youve always had great taste in music, man

This is straight out cool - love the steel drum effect and funky kick-in Kay0s

this is a cool tune for a 27 yr old baby :)

Steven youve got a nostalgic and not dated throwback that really sounds great. And yep I totally loved those housey piano chords @ about 1:26 with that fire string arrangement that followed. Synths are excellent! Your passion translates wonderfully! Keep on doing what you do! Peace.

Mark

Well I liked this from the first note... it hits you promisingly, then it develops. Keeping the listener hooked is one of the biggest challenges and you definitely knew and know a lot about it! Your synths sing beautifully! A great timeless track.
Cheers,

cant believe i hadn't seen this, 2 weeks wtf, you just featured, lol, there's not much to say than you have been bringing this quality of house forever, whatever style you bring you deliver, you analyse everything, everything is there for a reason, to tantalise, bring highs and lows, your a great talent and about time you spent more time with us and collab with me :))

I only have one surviving track from 27 years ago. Maybe 2 if I dig deep enough in the files. Sometimes I think about posting it, but then I listen to it again, and I just can't bring myself to do it. I still love it simply because it was one of my first completed tracks, but man...it's rough.
There are a lot of elements in this track that take me back to when I first started. I do really dig the synth work at 2:05. I like the cutoff/Reso work.
Cool work, man. Thanks for sharing.

This is a masterpiece of sounds - so professionally composed but v different. Kay0s

I used the Yamaha DJX and hooked up to a Atari ST back in 1998.
Made tunes that were going round the demo scene and rave scenes back then.
I loved mine back then and hearing them sounds sound cool.
I love the tune nice work.

27 years? Man u been in the game for a long time. I knew your were old but.... that's almost as old as me lol. Nice tune. I like that synth that comes in about half way through. Actually, for that matter, all the synth work sounds great. Hope you are well and good, Zoot.

Its nice to hear these sounds again. It really brings back memories!

good.

idk how to even describe this except awesome, and unexpected. I cant say ive heard anything quite like it. U defineitely take great care in your crafting, im a man of similar practice. I can certainly appreciate the level of craft that went into this. I take great pride in my drums, basslines, and percussion, even though im in a diferent genre, but u definitely should, as well. Take a bow, man. bravo.

Do you remember the "Mind's Eye" series of movies? They started somewhere around '90. A bunch of CGI art films set to music. I think there were three or four of them. Anyhow, this sounds like it could have been made for one of the vignettes. it's kind of cinematic, kind of atmospheric. Not a whole lot of that signature, cleverly disguised dark underbelly in this one. You feelin' alright, man? lol
I think it's funny how many people here have commented on the percussion. It's like, "..uhhh, have you never listened to Crucethus before? There's always killer percs, man." I mean, they're not wrong, though.
Fall is my favorite season as well. At least the last half of it. After the days get short and the weather gets cold.
Anyhow brother, I dig it. It does have a good energy to it. I think fun and funky is a perfect description.
Take care, bud.

Cullen Skink Yuk lol we actually live about 20 miles from cullen scotland is one of the most beautiful placed in the world with a rich rich history just our neighbours down the road that puts the spoils on that.

im not even gonna mention everything good, its already been said, but them percs are sic love the guitar work too, your work is always next level Steven, always a wonderful listen , great soundscape, and the funky vibe is right in the pocket, well done mate

great sounding layers and soundscape. i love your intro and how you handled that distortion with a well balanced filter action. transition like butter with those Kraftwerk pluck sounds. those rhythm guitar parts sound creamy dreamy, what did you use on those parts. later you dropped some stuttered delayed guitars, catchy af and decision well made, those are great inspiration. you were always good in mixing but holy cow you get better,its juicy in the eq and clear with all your layers and well compressed. love from a banana
