You def have the concept on the kick. sounds great. love the dark atmosphere on this one. enjoying intro of synth now at around 2:43. very musical transitions throughout. nice work. Dan
coming from an orchestral background, with all those old school values, I appreciate how uniquely different your work is from that school and my own style, but appreciate also the mastery and artistry that you have achieved in your style. I hope deejays continue to pick up your stuff and I hope there will be wider recognition for your stuff, and some bank as well.
I know this comment says nothing about the track, and if I "enjoyed" it or not. Your work is an inspiration to me. Your obvious dedication to continuing to grow artistically is obvious and an inspiration as well.
Bundle up my friend. Winter will jump upon us soon!
Technically, part of my background is orchestral, but I did not fit in with the idea of playing classical tunes and being chastised by teachers when I did something "wrong." My cellos were always borrowed from the school, since I was low income. I would love to have one again. I remember how satisfying it was playing pizzicato on the cello, or switching to the back of the bow. It is a lovely instrument.
I was hoping to do some internet radio DJ sets myself again, but the current state of FL Studio made it very difficult, so I set the idea aside for now. There recent additions of tempo automation are pretty much broken in my opinion, since they are based on the grid... Either the audio will stretch to a tempo, or the grid will - so either way, the results are not predictable. The clip will end in a totally different place than where it was when it began. Annoying!
Thank you for noticing my dedication... in all reality, my lack of dedication to music is mainly due to my dedication to many different aspirations. I could spend all day in the studio or practising instruments, but then my garden would wither, I would stop eating, I wouldn't know anything about native plants or fungus, I would stop adding to my blog, and I would have no time for local activism, and and and, well you get the idea. Even as it is, I have no time or energy for local friendships. :)
I honestly wish so much that I could bundle up! We have had many days around and above 31 degrees C in the past week, and today is supposed to be about the worst. We've had maybe .2 cm of rain the past several weeks. It's getting bad, especially with the wildfire smoke and ozone. There are air quality warnings today. I've been watering the garden before sunrise just for safety of myself and the plants.
Don't mean to complain, it's just forefront in my mind. One of those times where I stop believing that winter will come. At least we are getting a bumper crop of tomatoes!
But, don't worry - A song like this is not exactly meant for enjoyment in the conventional sense. It is simply self expression and carrying on the "work" of others. I should have a slightly more conventional tune finished soon.
Thanks for always being there to listen and give your support!
I definitely feel this one. great punch and clarity on your kick. How do you get that? Like all your sounds and the creative organization keeps me interested all the way. I know you can find a cool way to end it. Maybe a little explosive burst that quick fades. great work. big inspiration. Dan
that sub bass sounds nice 0:45 secs in . vocals sound cool. all sounds nice but the subs especially. it is interesting to call this trance. Perhaps there are more sections and breaks than might be expected in trance. i'm no expert on genre anyway. I feel the hypnotic quality for sure, and a tribal quality. very musical, creative work. congrats.
at first i thought you had a carribean thing going - but was feeling the trance soon enough. i did something with e soreni pella also and your use of it here is great. nice work. regards - Dan
feeling kick and percs straight out the gate. Great sounds, washes, drops, like everything. Didn't know about reference track as element in trance genre - that's helpful. However I'm always thinking about how to keep them hooked in the club. Seems the dancing stops for a while. Could keep some rhythmic element driving things, like a hat or something. I think trance track by definition needs more time and I think track length is fine. Congrats on awesome work. Dan
your playing is fantastic. production is awesome also. i like how you bring it all down at about 2:44. We catch our breath and ready ourselves for more. There might be a stronger way through Finale to end. congrats on this awesome work. Regards - Dan
love the build intro. love your synth choices. a little EQ on this one might clear up a bit of clipping in loud sections. Beautiful contrasting (quiet) section and bringing in strings is wonderful. Nice work!
possibly a little evil for dance?! are you going for a trance feel here? Might be interesting to create some variety on your repeating loop. Nice work. Dan
Thanks for your feedback Dan! i really appreciate it.
now that you mention it, i can hear the difference between the "inner voices" and the "louder bits"...i will make those changes and let you know what it sounds like.
thanks again.
Lim
nice build from beginning. so far feeling trance as much as dance! i really need to master that reverse cymbal - good use of it. fantastic sounds and compelling mix. nice work buddy. good to reconnect with your music this morning.
Wow, Orlando. Nice write-up on this one in additional to super interesting track. I've been out of the loop for a while so I don't know how many of these collabs you have been doing with Ed but they are beautiful. Big fav! Regards, Dan
Many thanks for this positive feedback and the 'fav' Dan.:)
Really means alot! We're doing collabs regularly since 2014
mostly within few months intervals, sometimes even less. Our last collab was posted just a month ago and I hope there will be many more cause working with Ed is a true blessing...:)

I like the organization of your material also - very musical - waxing and waning but never giving up the intensity necessary to keep folks moving.
glad to be discovering your work. big inspiration.

I like the long intro - possibly for dancing it might be better to introduce the kick sooner.
It might be that some inner voices could be brought out more and some of the louder bits brought down.
Nice work!
