hi again, just had an impression that the intro drums (0:00 - 0:15) are phase-panned. At the moment I experiment a lot with the effects but I never 'move' instruments like this. of course you can pan them even hard left/right but the drums for the most part drive the the tracks like this so such an effect is a bit strange here, at least for me. I think the 'retro' tracks like this need simply quite different kind of effects. Alex

hi midiman, I much enjoyed a kind of a retro 80s 90s(?) pop sounds in here. Excellent work on this one! the only thing is some strange processing(s) added to the entire track (panning?) and also to the single parts that make it sound so special and unusual(?) but its still relative of course...
great track! Alex

hi Scott/Franco, I really like the laidback kind of harmonic
ambivalence on this track created between the bass, rhythm guitars and vocals. But the sax solo was excatly at point! Some flutes as well. Overall very smooth vocals but still very strange mixture of sounds. Anyway very chill and relaxing despite of the vague chord changes. I guess it depends most of the bass line. Well done. Alex

hi, I never played the game. anyway it sounds really very funky. from about 1:40 almost like some laidback latin groove for sure. Nice work. Alex

hi again again,
ha! my kraftwerk-best-of piece would be definitely 'the model' which is a kind of a 'song' too and the one that somehow defines the style. anyway Im enjoying much that particular kind of a minimal-industrial groove present as well in your recording. Nice work on this one and simply keep it up!
Alex

hi, nice chill club vibes on this one but definitely too short!. well produced and kind of funky.
really good work. Alex

hi, nice song and very fine vocals. It reminds me somehow of 'The Beautiful Ones' by Prince http://www.izlesene.com/video/prince-the-beautiful-ones/5274857 maybe because of the synths and long reverb on the vocals. Really great work on this one and I enjoyed quite original production. Keep it up!
Alex

hi, Farisha's vocals are great but most of them are processed by some weird autotuner. Anyway always wondered how you get such a loud mix and outstanding waveform in your productions.
NIce work. Alex

hi again, I like some of the changes you've made here by rearranging the song. Sounds really good like this. The only thing would be that the e piano which I particulary like (the one playing some nice rhythm) seems be a little bit less present here. Synth bass and pad blend-in very nicely in the recording. Im really enjoying this one. NIce work. Congrats, Alex

hi, I really like your version - its wide and transparent. nice piano fade-in. the drum fill (3:23) sounds also very nice like this. The strings, brass and woodwinds are pretty much 'one' at the end without preffering any particular section which is good. Overall very nice work!
Alex

hi again, there's some really cool bassline in the original one indeed but I preffer your slower version cause it has this nice chill keys, some fine pads and lot of space. the vocals are also better at a normal speed... It happens! Great track. Alex

hi, a very strange and special but nice work. You compiled some industrial vocals, noises which I find great into a kind of a weird dance track... but somehow I'd say that I like its athmosphere and unsettling image... Alex

hey, very nice song. really interesting main theme that could be used as a cinematic soundtrack as well. I think the reso-filtered bassline (0:42)which sounds very metallic doesn't work quite well with the rest at least at the very moment you introduce it. Although there's many elements that sound even more metallic in this song... You could also change the drums at 3:00 - maybe they are just too repetitive throughout the track and seem to stand out from other instruments at times. That will give maybe some more live and flow to the track... hope its useful.
But anyway it is quite nicely done and I enjoyed your work. Alex

hi, really nice sounds and very smooth production. I do not know the original one but this song is very good: really chill and kind of funky indeed... Simply nice work. Alex

hi again, so the brass section and the percussion work... and of course the world 'war' in the title make me think of your track being inspired by a Shostakovich's music - extremely dramatic, melodic, very nostaglic and expressive. Some of the sounds you get from your midi orchestra (you don't need any better software anyway!) have this quality of his music... Its a bit long piece (ca. 50min) but I think you may find yourself in it... Alex

hi,
I really like the concept behind the song: the continuing presence of some repeating bassline. It reminds me of some classical baroque period (or renaissance) pieces being variations and improvised elaborations on the 'basso ostinato' or 'ground basse'. What I like also in here is the tone of the bass guitar with a little of warm stereo delay effect. I think the drums you're using could be dryer and closer, especially the snare one. From 1:55 its not so easy to get the proper feeling of them when listening even though you somehow 'doubled the tempo'. But anyway they have a nice and gentle tone which I like... So I just thought that might turn your song into even much more 'acoustic' one and help the really good guitars in here. Nice work - I enjoyed it and am looking for more, Alex

hi, niiiice teaser but quite different dnb from your last one... more dark and intense but a bit melancholic.
Very good start for a song.
looking forward for more. Alex

hi, nice tune, more trance-like than house for me but really good music with some relaxing vibes... really nice work. Alex

hi, this is really well done. It definitely reminds me of Shostakovich's Symphony nr 5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTqsU7tQW48 I really liked what you did here - this is very expressive and interesting orchestral composition with really fine arrangement. excellent work! Alex

hi Ookami, this song sounds quite different from your other songs I was listening last month... Im really enjoying this. it is really relaxing and nice played. Dreamy.
Alex

hi really interesting and quite original piece with some unexpected twists... constantly changing. I like all processed dark-ambient-creepy-cinematic type of sounds. I think the female voice at 0:36 needs also this type of distortion or filtering to cooperate more with the rest, other than it stands out a bit... but still this is only my personal preference. I like the synths around 1:26 and 1:39 - it sounds really interesting. this part seems to be a sketch of some other minimal track itself...
really good work. Alex

hi there, very cool retro music with lots of twists and interesting loops. Very nice piano. Laidback guitar playing at the end - it blends in so smoothly... I love it!
Great one! - very chill and relaxing.
Alex

hi again, just wanted to add something more because this is a great tune. I really like minimal tracks in a way and you did it very well eventhough there's not so many elements in here... But everything sounds balanced and right in place! I mentioned Kraftwerk because this is definitely a bit old-styled 'robotic' music. Never heard about the band from the decription but again the song reminds me of some 80's german electronic. I enjoyed the stylish synth sounds you're using here and very interesting sampled vocals and industrial noises. The reso/cutoff filtering work on the loop makes it sounds very classic and retro indeed. Very nice work on this one! Congratulations. Alex

hi, really nice chillout song. I like the strings and some delayed synth sounds. I think you might just remove some strings chords or change the harmony when you introduce vocals. they don't work always well with the same loop and seems like there's something in there that clash slightly (about 1:08 mark). but the vocals sound very nice with the bassline and with the piano - it just one or two chords to adjust. Overall the song is fine and I enjoyed it. Greetings,
Alex
