Love the booming bass and the vibe of this track in general - it's gotta a surreal, mysterious feel to it. Nicely done.

I really, really like this track. Excellent use of the vocals and the pads/synths are smooth. A great combination of funk and the more abtract side of hip-hop [sort of reminded me of Hudson Mohawke]. My one tiny complaint would be that I wish the drums were a little louder. I imagine it was probably a hassle mastering this with the different sounds and vocals, but the drums seem to be drowned out at certain points. Other than that, this is just perfect.

Heady,trippy music. Love the outer space feel of the track. I'm amazed this was made 10 years ago and the process sounds like it must've been quite a task. I'm sure it was worth it at the end though, because this sounds excellent. Really liked this track as a whole, and I have to specifically mention that I love the outro ie the last two minutes or so of pure atmosphere and fx.

This is beautiful. I'm surprised this hasn't gotten any reviews yet. I guess with a song like this, the listener is put in such a calm state that writing or thinking of what to write isn't exactly what one wants to do. The percussion throughout is nice and the pads are lovely. I like the little switch around the 4:00 mark where it gets dark, but what I like more is that you quickly bring the listener back to the original calm state. Keep up the good work man.

Excellent stuff. Love everything about this track [drums - excellent, bass - solid], but what really stands out for me is that mutating synth line or whatever it is that you slowly bring in from 36 secs onwards. Also, the fx throughout is perfect. Really well done track.

Okay, I mentioned earlier how you haven't lost your touch, but I've now come to the realization that you've also improved. Once again, deep and nasty bassline, without being over the top. The snares/claps from the beginning are great and hit hard. I especially the part after around 2:42 where the bass switches up and becomes a bit more trip-hop'ish. I think that's the part that goes best with the vocals. Also, the liquidy fx is perfect.

Love the spacious feel of this one. The fx sounds throughout are pretty trippy and the bass is perfect as well. I only wish you'd let the bass run another bar or two before the song reaches its end because I wanted more of it (I'm a greedy guy). Either you could let it continue as it is, or maybe switch it up by just eq'ing it and making it more of a sub sound, or even change the pattern a bit. But that's just me. All in all, I really liked this.

This is a fun, energetic tune. I like the way the orchestral instruments drive major parts of the song, and then that bass around the 3 minute mark is just absolutely mental. Keep up the good work man.

This is wonderfully demented. Personally, I'd change just a tiny little thing and lower the volume of the synth that goes "bip bip bip bip" at certain points(don't know how else to describe it. it particularly pops out 55 secs in). It's a subjective thing, but I feel that synth sort of takes away from the humourously evil tone of the track when it's the focal point and pushes it more towards the humour side. Anyway, this was an enjoyable 270 seconds (heard it thrice). Nice work.

Well that was short and sweet. I'm going to assume you haven't uploaded the full version here for some reason. Anyway, I liked what I heard. Pretty ominous stuff. Never been a fan of the midrange bass mutations except when done well, and you've done it really well here. And, well, I look forward to hearing a full version. Nice job.

Agreed with both the reviewers below - Great, great beat and your flow compliments it perfectly. I see you mentioned that you uploaded the wrong version and corrected that, but I still think you may need to up the volume on the vocals just a little bit more. Nice work nonetheless.

Man, this is one of the best hip-hop tracks I've heard on this site. Absolutely love the beat and the lyrics and flow match up to it. Really good stuff.

Short and sweet. I like it. The beats have sort of an old school feel to them, and the cut up vocals fit in perfectly. Did you intentionally end the song that abruptly? For a second, I thought something went wrong with my computer.

I'm gonna go with "Pretty Instense" and not "pretentious" (it took me a few seconds to figure that out. I initially thought you just like unnecesarry brackets)(like I do)(I'm kidding). Okay now onto the song - this is indeed intense but in a brooding, atmospheric way as most drone/ambient tunes are. I love the big guitar(?) sounds and I'm guessing you must;ve you've a lot of reverb on everything because I can't really figure out what those sounds are. But what I do know is that I like this track. Good job.

This one's an interesting track. The strumming guitar, vocal samples and bass gives it a reggae feel, while the atmospherics and the chord progressions are more on the trip-hop/electronica side, as you've mentioned. It surprisingly fits together really well. I don't think if I'd ever heard a dark(ish) reggae song ever before until this track, and I really liked this. My only advice would be to extend the intro by just another couple of bars before the guitar strums enter in order the let the track breathe a bit before being unleashed.

Nice. Love the spooky keys, and the deep bass. Except for Dungbeatl's excellent advice on taking away the piano for a bit, or chopping it, and then bringing it back, I can't really think of any other way to improve this. So yeah - nice work.

This is from the Dj Shadow (circa "Endtroducing") school alright. Too bad the guy's sort of disappeared lately, but I think I read somewhere he's coming out with a new album. Anyway, on to your track - I like the jazzy sax, and I especially love the pad you've layered below it. Really adds some soul to the track. The "machine gun drums" (perfectly put by the reviewer below) are great as well, and even though they seem a little crazy for what is a laidback tune, it fits perfectly. I think it helped that I've listened to some of Shadow's earlier stuff, because otherwise I wouldn't know what to make of this, if you know what I mean. Like is this breakbeat? or is it old school hiphop? etc etc. Sometimes there's this need to categorize music so that you can then get a better idea of what the artist is trying. Anyway, I digress. Good music is good music. And this is good. Simple as that.

Instantly liked it once the beat dropped and the soothing keys played. Love the chopped up samples. The only suggestion I could give you is to maybe drop the volume ever so slightly on the female vocal that's not chopped up, or maybe put some reverb on it. Other than that, love the beat and the vibe.

Nice. The bassline is a good one, but I particularly love the bright synths. The transition towards the end is a bit abrupt, so I'd suggest making this a bit longer and maybe adding a couple of little sounds around the main melody and bassline. Other than that, this is good stuff.

You like injecting funk into most of your work right? Because of the songs I've heard of yours, they all have a very loose, funky feel. This was fun to listen to, and as to the final line of your song description - yes, this is good.

The first minute or so is just blissful. Really relaxing stuff. I thought the transition into the beats could've been smoother (i.e. maybe have 'em automated and come in at a lower volume before really kicking in), but that may be 'coz I'm really sleepy right now. I've heard the acapella you've used before and you've made great use of it. Good stuff.

Nice. Love the melody and the bass. You an Autechre fan? Because the drums at the start reminded me of some of their work.
