on Spinnny-2012 feat ethic by Spinnny
Was it supposed to suddenly cutoff like that at the end? That was the only thing that I felt detracted from the song the last go round. The only other thing I could suggest is maybe adding some effects on the vocals to make 'em sound gritty or dirty and kinda like their comin out of an old radio or something. Beyond that this was a pretty solid track mate. And I really dug the wobbly bass sounds ya had on here. Later on!
on When Hippos sing with Frogs by n0mad23
Hmm, this one does come across as a bit odd. Kinda like I could picture this being played in the green room or something. Or even better, I'm thinkin this'd be cool to play on one of those Scion commercials. Coz it's different or in a way it sounds experimental to me. Course, this would be really cool to pair up with some song that has more melody in a mash-up mix. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on Kali with Peanut Sauce by n0mad23
I'll readily admit that 'dub' isn't a genre that I know all that much about. Though lately I've been wanting to rectify this situation by listening to more (as I have done with some other genres on www.di.fm).
This one has a decent lil mix of indo-chinese grooves going on (with the sitar sounding synth). And the drums kinda remind me of reggae fused with either hiphop or pop. This is kinda trippy stuff ya made here mate. Later on!
on Were gon' party - Vocal Mix by TIHunused
Yer right, this is pretty powerful. I like the in-and-out sweepy sound ya got at the beginning. It fits in rather well with the drums. And the Pianos were nice too. Cool stuff. Later on!
on Techno-Beckno by DanielGtrman
There was a part of the beat that sounded like it was just a little outta sync (the click-pop sounding one). It kinda reminds me of when I'm playin with the metronome on. Beyond that this track was really put together well. Though I wonder where the Guitar parts were here (scratches head). Anyways, nicely done guys! Later on.
on Dreamland by Strict_Policy
This track kinda reminds me of the 'bass-centric' artists from the 90s (Techmaster PEB, Bass Blox, Bass Incorporated, etc). Mixed with a little bit of Expansion Union.
As for the intro sample of Super Mario Bros at the beginning, if ya hadn't said that you had made this for a local skating rink I woulda questioned it, but it kinda makes sense with the skating thing. Heck, I betcha this'd be cool as all get out to skate during the lights out rolo-disco thing they do. Smooth grooves here. Later on!
on z75 - Broken Dreams by Zooloo75
Given it's short length is it safe to guess that this isn't done yet?
I really like what you've got so far, though I don't think it could be classified as traditional breakbeat (maybe Progressive Electro or Dream Pop, maybe). I also liked the lil effects ya threw onto that one part of the song. Cool start here. Later on!
on The City talks by Bosco
Yeah, I agree with Finn, ya gotta work on the levels of the vocals coz they're too hot compared to the rest of the mix. And you could maybe work in some kinda fade for the vox for the part that it repeats "Noise".
And given it's short time, you've got alotta room to work, ya know? Later on!
on Plum Henry's Revenge by Kazm
Nice lil retro fills ya threw in here. Reminded me of those lil ray-gun keychain toys from back in the 80s that had like 5 or 6 different weapon sounds on it. The only part I didn't much fancy were the vocals, beyond that this was pretty cool. Later on!
Peace and thanks,
Kii.
on Freedom by Teksketch
Parts of the synth on this reminds me of games like Bubble Bubble or Super Bust-a-move. And then others remind me of those old jewelry boxes. The vox on this kinda remind me of this former looperman member, Catch22 (who's on TalentTrove.com if ya wanna check him out). Very interesting mix mate. Later on!
on till end (short version) by Forkye
Sweet start ya got here mate. Though given the time I wish it was a bit longer, but hopefully you'll post the full version of this soon.
I really dig the lil drum break downs ya got on here. And for some odd reason this is remindin me of the way some of the songs sounded on old NES games (but not as cheesy with the 8bit sound as they were). So it's the vibe, I mean. Kinda like playin somethin like Gradius or Contra or something. Very bangin. Later on!
on Fallen angel by RobbDutton
Pretty funky track mate! Though in a way I wouldn't say that this is conventional Breakbeat, I'd be more inclined to call it a cross between Down-tempo and Trip-hop, but that's just me.
And the way ya worked the acapella in gives it an almost alien atmosphere, ya know? I could totally see people trippin hard to this. Later on!
on Throw your Hands by DjIrwin
This is the first true Breakbeat song I've heard in this category in a few days.
And ya, it is a real shame that ya accidentally deleted the file. I kinda had that happen once when I mistakenly saved over a song I had been working on with this new file that I had started. Lost like 30% of my work (or a day and a half's worth of mixing). Isn't that such a pain in the a**?
Okies, falling back on the track. This reminds me of a mix between Baby Annes stuff and this one song by Deepsky with the deteriorating synth sound ya used on this. And the vocal sample ya used reminded me of Trip Theory. Pretty cool stuff mate. Later on!
on Don't Know Why by YukonSleemanakaYukMC
Yeah, this track took me back too. Dunno exactly what style this reminded me of (acid rap perhaps, in the same leagues as that song 'I gotta feelin someone's watchin me'). Mixed a lil with Green Velvet's style (some offshoot of House whose name I forget now too). Pretty crazy stuff to say the least, thanks for sharing. Later on!
on Electro Ripper by DeiSenDra
Yeah, this is a very sweet song, very progressive. Kinda balistic with it's flow, but ya pulled off mixin this together well. The only thing I could suggest from the last time this played is working on the end a little. Maybe just fade it out quicker because it kinda sounds like this was about to go into another mix and was cut off right as the other one was starting. Anyways, this is fantastic mate. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on Iowa 39 by Matsumoto
Given the length is it safe to assume that this isn't finished?
Cool start ya got here, but ya might wanna work on yer transitions and the way the different parts play into eachother coz they sounded a little muddled (or as if they clashed). I def dig the concept though. Keep at it mate. Later on!
on Shamen / Essence - Computer Program by Shamen
Yeah mate, nicely done! Very retro quality to it, ya know? Kinda like stepping into a time machine and popping out in the year 1984 (when break dancing was at it's commercial peak). And I'm pretty sure you could stretch this out even longer if ya pull up the entire arrangement and do kind of a pairing thing with having a female sounding vocoded type of voice (or maybe do what Daft Punk did with that one track they did their vocoded voice like they were playing keys on their synth). Excellent stuff here. Later on!
Greetz from Hungary / Shamen from Essence SINCE192
on crossover time by DJmacrocosmtrip
Is it safe to guess that this is a work in progress (given it's length)? You've definitely got a good start here with all of the things you got goin on here. There are parts here that remind me of this and other parts that remind me of another thing. It'd be kinda interesting to see how this progresses (if ya continue mixing it). Later on!
on Only In Your Dreams by jgmuzic
I'll admit that this is a pretty cool groove, but it also sounds like ya needta work on adjusting the volume levels just a tad, because the bass-like synth seems to overpower the drums a little. And the vox sound like they could use a bit of tweeking too (though I like 'em for the most part). Like at first they sound drowned out by the bass-like synth and then as the song progresses they sound too pronounced. I'm thinkin that beyond leveling 'em out ya might wanna consider thowing an effect or 2 on 'em too (like light distortion with flanger or somethin). Which is one thing Garageband is great for. Anyways, this sounds like a very decent beginning to a bangin song worthy of being compared to some other artists like Primal Scream, NIN, and similar (with a slight twist of Tricky's off-the-wall style). Later on!
on summer 09 FANFARE by DJ_COSMOS
Diggin the breakish drums ya used to start this along with the panned synth tones. And though I dig the dream-like part ya move into I think ya might wanna work on finetuning the transition between the intro stuff and the pads. Though given it's length am I right in guessing that yer not finished with this yet?
As for the description, I totally hear ya. And I tell ya that last bus ride home was the longest and yet the best. Just knowing that in 30 or so minutes there would be freedom for 3 months. Cool stuff. Later on!
on GEBRA by EDECHERS
Man, I recognize some of the loops ya used in this. Did ya use Cakewalk software to make this? And from the sound of it ya used a midi keyboard? I think my favorite part of the song were those crazy drums and drum fills ya used on this. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on Are you alone- Dj Mohsen by DjMohsen
As for the desc, why are ya goin to Canada? I almost hadta go to Wisconsin with my resv unit, but luckily didn't get slotted to go.
As for the track, interesting mix mate. Seems like ya found 2 genres that were complimentary of one another here. Thanks for sharing. Later on!
on Runner Up 3 - DJ 4 REAL - 77 Points by AwakeningComp
on Test Track 1 by Dion549
Nice start you got going on here. I've got Sony too, but don't use it that often. Anyways, I like how ya mixed a sorta cinematic into this and would kinda like to see how this progresses out (if ya mess with mixing it more). Later on!
on STRAWBERRY WOMAN by Rockym778
Play 2 now...
Okies, since 'Experimental' isn't a current genre choice on here I'm gonna recommend that ya put this in 'Wierd' instead, because this doesn't sound like a conventional Dance track.
Though for yer first mix with the program I'd say that yall were getting a handle on it pretty quickly. The only thing that I think this track is missing is a pronounced drum beat. I can hear what sounds like effected percs, but they seem kinda dull without the "boom boom" of the kick drum, ya know? Interesting stuff otherwise. Later on!
