LOL...I know exactly what you mean. If there was anyway here to combine genres, I would most definitely include pop. I did categorize it as cinematic due to its melody which can be suitable for background music in films. I don't know but I've seen a couple of wedding videos lately that used upbeat music...and amazingly it works. Hehe. This is my first try at creating an original song so yeah, it needs a lot of work still.
But anyways, reviews like yours are those that help the most. So thanks for that. Hope you do share your inputs on further tracks that I'd be uploading. Again thanks. Keep it comin too.
some really nice vibes here on this track... smooth...I would have liked to have hear some more sub,even more snyth work and sfx but maybe thats just me... I like my dnb a little more heavier... some nice ideas.. keep 'em coming brother
some nice work... reminded me abit of some of junior walkers stuff ya know?
with a more modern twist to it kinda junior meets 80's duran duran with a little bit of funk from curtis in there as well...
it's very hard for me as an electronic artist to critic something like this because I'm always looking for something electronic I suppose!!..
I enjoyed the listen but for me you do need some kinda extra element in there as well as the blistering sax solos...maybe some bass runs like bootsy colins did in superbad or even a short drum solo just to elevate it upwards kinda like the thing James browns band did in his 70's heyday...ya know what I mean? anyway I enjoyed the listen thanks for sharing brother... keep 'em coming
some nice ideas... the vocals are great perhaps just a bit more mastering and they'd sit a better into the track.... other than that I enjoyed the listen thanks for sharing... I'm with Spivkurl it really does remind me of that whole trent reznor sound.. keep 'em coming brother
Thanks NJ! ...Vocals are so damn hard to get right. I will def be working on them more throughout the next couple of weeks. I was kind of going for that mid 90's NIN sound so it is a major compliment you and Spiv have given me. Thanks again!
some great ideas here brother....has a old skool meets new skool feel to it with that bass.... would have loved to have heard some more drops.... I have to say I agree with Spivkurl and sn76 theres a bit of clipping in there and also I would say you high end needs cutting a bit.... you still using reason? I completely cut the high end in my master combinator using param 2 I turn the freq up to full,gain down to 0 and open the parametric up 32.... it kills that high end tinnyness that reason tends to have... anyway nice track.. keep 'em coming brother...
Thanks man, yea the high ends, especially on the beat are hard to control, though it is definitely something I'd like to master/know how to do properly.
Send me a message on what you mean by drops.
Thanks,
Steve
some really good ideas here.... loving the harsh beat but for me it just needs a few extras to really bring it up...maybe a vocal for extra texture or a few lfo led reeses... still enjoyed the listen though...keep 'em coming brother
Oh man, I hear yah on that one, this is part 1 of 4 and obviously if you listen to the 3 preceeding tracks (time shift, warp and flex) they have, for me at least, grown in something I wanted to produce. So I've been planning on re-producing the 4 tunes to get what I've learnt into these and hopefully make them better projects.
Thanks for the checking the tune man, I'll definitely check out one of your tunes. :)
Steve
some nice ideas... I have to question your genre choice probably would have been more suited to electronic genre.... the track itself is nicely done the productioin is good ...I would say that you gotta watch some of the levels... I got a bit of clipping my end... never be afraid to turn it down a bit full is not always best... keep 'em coming brother
oohhh loving that bass brother.... noisia trick?... this track is a great listen... you still got your own old skool vibes on here but it just seems bigger.. nice one brother... keep 'em coming
some very nice old skool sound in here.... loved the snyths took me back to the good old days of throwing shape in the church of dance off me face.... would have liked to have heard a little more variation on that sub but still nice work.. keep 'em coming brother
there are some nice ideas here... you've got a very 80's sounding track which is very different for dnb for me though I'd would have liked to hear a sub it would have filled this whole track out.... don't get me wrong I enjoyed the listen and your use of acoustic instruments works well I just think it could benefit froma little more electronic help....keep 'em coming brother
some nice ideas... for me it felt like the bass was tucked in behind the drum track... having said that I liked the section from 2:47 ish till the end there the bass and drum track seemed to match perfectly... don't get me wrong I enjoyed the listen... keep 'em coming brother
some good ideas here brother... for me the whole thing suffered a little from too much distortion it takes away from a hard dark tune... maybe lay off it a little... like I said some good ideas just spoilt a bit for me... keep 'em coming brother
there are some good ideas here brother... it ends really abruptly which is disappointing... the thing is for me it's a nice listen but it lacks the strength that I would expect from dnb... especially if your using reason 4 too many loops... I don't want to be down on your track because it's good but try checking out daves "darkstep" tutorial it'll give you some ideas to add some more strength and thickness to your tracks... keep 'em coming brother
Thanks for listening and reviewing!
It stops like that only because I'm not done yet. I'm gonna add to it but I just had a huge urge to post it so far. I'll definitely look at that tutorial too. I saw it on there, but didn't really watch it.
there are some good ideas here... the bass line is a little over powering... maybe your just need to work on your EQing a post production skills a little brother.. I wonder what it would sound like with out that bass because the drum track works well.. theres no shame in going back to the drawing board.. we all do it especially me I'm a demon for it... like I said some good ideas maybe all it needs is a rethink... keep 'em coming brother
there are some good ideas brother... for me your basslines needed to be thicker and your kick needs to be meatier... having said that I did enjoy the listen but the track needs a little work... keep 'em coming brother
some nice ideas here... abit too pendulum for my taste though... I would have liked to hear that sub come through a tiny bit more... I would also like to SHAME the person that downloaded this without saying a thing sorry but thats just rude... some nice ideas as I say just a little too clean for me brother... keep 'em coming
once again with that style... you just don't hear this sound anymore and I miss it...and it certainly is your calling card brother...for me I would have like to have heard a little more sub... but thats just me I think... nice one ... I enjoy every second.... keep 'em coming brother
some good ideas here brother...I think for me you need to inject a little more space.... maybe change the bpm(not sure if that would work)... it a great start... maybe a few sfx in the first 30 seconds would make it wider ... spacey glitch sounds or something like that would work well with the lfo's... nice anyway looking forward to hearing the finished track... keep 'em coming brother
I think I'm going to keep the BPM the same, add more effects, stretch a dnb loop about 8 times and play around with the LFOs some more, I think it might sound good with those added.
some nice ideas.. not really strictly dnb... whats the bpm here? the track is well produced all the snyth and bass sounds work well.. maybe it might be an idea to check out some of the other dnb on the loop to see what I mean.. not bad for your third track brother... keep 'em coming brother
some nice ideas here... you got that old skool sound going on here... I like the snyths... for me I would add abit more sub to really get that favor going.... may be some vocal samples would work... just an idea... I love that guitar it's got that police feel to it... nice... I enjoyed the listen... keep 'em coming brother
great stuff.... some really good use of sounds...for me that high end is just a little too full there seems to be a lot of space in the mids... the drum track is fantastic ... nice trac... I enjoyed the listen... keep 'em coming brother
some nice ideas... and done in a style that I haven't heard for a while.... for me this style needs to be peppered with a large sub bass line... I'm with EzIcarus as well the drum track needs a bit of a boost... but as I said some nice old skool ideas..keep 'em coming brother
nice track brother... I like the use of that pella... also the use of that light airy vocal gives a nice atmosphere to the track... it's really got that roni size vibe to it... nice track I enjoyed the listen... keep 'em coming brother
Hey thanx man... I just updated this. The part where the tweaked out amens come in was too loud.
So I hope it sounds better. I appreciate the listen man. You're one of my favs here. So that does mean a lot to me... Thanks again man I'll be watching ya here and on SoundCloud...
P.S... shame on those two people that downloaded this track without so much of a thank you... seriously there should be a way to sort this... cause thats just plain rude... nice track
on The Beginning (Edited) by andredeville
the track sounds like the script without vocals... if you get what I mean...
never the less it's well produced but it doesn't have much substance or bite to it... kinda like the script with a vocal!!
keep 'em coming brother
But anyways, reviews like yours are those that help the most. So thanks for that. Hope you do share your inputs on further tracks that I'd be uploading. Again thanks. Keep it comin too.
