on Disturbing Your Sleep eYe540 Edit by StylesMusic1

Love the white noise in the intro. Bass is amazingly dynamic in the mix. The Rap reminds me of early early "Aussie" rap like this...

very interesting and nice professional mix.

StylesMusic1 replied 16th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Cru. Thanks for checking this out. Glad you noticed the dynamics of the bass (it is quite dynamic). Amazing how a track can become far more dynamic when compression is used to your liking. Just having fun making traX here in NC.

on Dancing With The Devil - with ISMB and AndAWan by ProgRockDan1

Very Eclectic and nicely done. I love when artists on this site are not afraid to reach out and go for it , sometimes. Avant Garde and very cool. The Dubstep section was unexpected.
Cru

ProgRockDan1 replied 15th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Thank you. I like to throw a few surprises into apiece. This one has a lot of unusual elements. I hope it is not too strange.

on See Through by MisterBloodworth

Very nice song, I do agree that the VST takes away the human element which would drive this song so much more emotionally. I can see why you love thissong though, brilliant chord progressions.
peace
Cru

MisterBloodworth replied 14th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks Cru. This is one of my new favorite songs done by Pentatonix, so I just had to do a piano version of it. Since they only use their voice, and no other instrument, it was possible. Thanks again!

on That Whiskey Diet by topvega

Gritty, Dirty, Driven and just down-home-style rock.. loved it. Awesome groove. as I listen to this my head is shaking up and down to this beat. It needs a Chris Cornell like vocal to complete this.
great work
Cru

topvega replied 15th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks bro. I feel ya on the Chris Cornell. Does have a Sound Garden vibe. Thanks for the kind words and the listen and comment.

on From My Heart -RnB Freestyle by TuneDef

Okk Agree with other comments. very good song you need to back down the gain on the vocals and eliminate or minimize the reverb if you can. When I first started recording I was so wary of my voice I used to try to hide it with verb and chorus but I have learned there are other ways to make you sound awesome on this song. If this is mixed and mastered properly you would have a very nice song..
Cru

TuneDef replied 14th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Totally agreed gaining knowledge takes time and effort, plus the experience of hands on...first hand knowledge trumps all....there's no magic button you press and suddenly it's there...I have less than a
Year of recording...and have owned my first mic less than that. I appreciate and need feedback, but it offers me nothing if it's not gear to my learning curve...

on I wish I could fly promenade remix III by promenade2239

Much Much Better now. I think if you end it with the way you did on the first remix I would love this version.
Cru

promenade2239 replied 12th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

hi, thanks for your comments.
I just made another remix (the last one) and updated again this track! - it's quite nice too, a bit in a breakbeat manner. I started again from scratch.
You may like this one also. Greetings, Alex

Just in time to celebrate the 25 years of bringing the wall down, this is a nice journey your skills always shine through. Really long fade out!

Yeah deffo! Always glad when you come by and leave comments.
It really is appreciated.

on Younger Days w ShortBusMusic by MWRatridge

First notes of that harmonica made me feel like on was on a moving train in the prairies. Your voice reminded me if I combined Dylan with Dan McCafferty of Nazareth fame. gruff gritty and emphasizing the consonants.
Nice work Gentlemen

on Maybe Now by clindsay

Ok where do I start. First and foremost good job, the eclectic nature of this tune makes me smile as I love to do the same thing. The intro was eerie, spooky and full of good things even if her voice is just slightly out of tune it adds to the dissonance of it. Your chord structures were gorgeous, again with a diminished chord stuck in the riff just made it for me. The use of a few styles throughout the mix was nice as well. My only complaint (small one) is I would like to hear a more complex percussion added to this one.
Otherwise brilliant song
Cru

clindsay replied 10th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks Cru - I appreciate the listen and the kind comments. I take your point on the percussion but I tried to keep it dancey - I'll try some variances and see if I can add better percussion.

on I wish I could fly promenade remix III by promenade2239

Very cool, Once I disassociated the sounds with my original I could appreciate your more drum and bass with jazz version. The Sax was nice and I liked the ending, nice work Alex.
Steve

promenade2239 replied 8th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

nice double post:) - thanks again! maybe I will develop or edit this song soon. I wanted to make some sweet and liquid electronic drum and bass but finally this is an instrumental fusion (as always) - probably my second attempt on dnb ever.
really glad you liked my work, alex

on Tournament by Byleth

I was waiting for the guitar. and lo and behold 2:05 there it was. Very dissonant and cool that you made this one. A great artist spreading his wings a bit is always welcome.
Steve

Byleth replied 7th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Hello Steve , thanks for the spoiler (was a joke)to be serious I would thanks you a lot for these words "A great artist spreading his wings a bit is always welcome." one of the best thing a person tell me !

on House Movement Remix by KooLKYLE

Very cool deep house. It's like one very long denouement with no climax. Almost as if the song to come after will be the release. Keeps you listening for that moment. Clever Idea.

on Angel and a Demon by MOONLYTE

Great work my friend I love the electiveness of all of it. I think if Static Nomad reviews this he will comment on the reverse cymbals. ;-)
I love how it changes dynamically. Mixing wise I thing you may have used a bit too much low pass filter on this and maybe a bit more EQ is needed. The drums are awesome in this one and I wouldn't listen to any one who says to remove them. Epic Job my friend.
Cru

MOONLYTE replied 4th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Haha thanks for the kind words crucethus :) And dont worry, ive left the sam drums in, just mastered them better. I thought they fit as well

crucethus 4th Nov 2014 00:56 - 11 years ago

on A Beautiful Day by kdlucas

A Beautiful Day Indeed!. I love the Fret-less Bass work. Raw Vocals reminds me of Joni Mitchell in some ways. Then that awesome guitar. I could see Tumbleweed loving this one. Then the Harmonies just cemented this one for me. Great Job!
Fav'd

kdlucas replied 4th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks for your detailed comments. Lacey indeed has great vocals, and she can do harmony on the fly. Badhuman cemented the original guitar work, and did some stellar work with it.

on One With The Stars EazyBeatz Edit by EazyBeatz

Lovely Intro. nice fx. then the pads bring it into definition. but the drum beat defines the Zeitgeist of this tune..

thank you for you mindful and humble thoughts on this composition Crucethus. I can tell your wisdom is the zeitgeist of your heart :) -EazyBeatz- :)

on Starlight Soaked Bud Nova Burst Mix by visionarysoundsystem

Intro Pan was extraordinary. Had to listen again. love the bass line. Sly & Robbie are the standard I judge all dub tracks. And I feel a bit of there influence on this one. guitar is just perfectly placed in the mix. love the Rhodes as well. The only thing I would like to hear in this is maybe a phased synth. other than that nice work gentlemen.
cru

visionarysoundsystem replied 13th Nov 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanx Crucethus. I grew up listening to dub B.sides and Sly & Robbie were often the rhythm section on those tracks so yup doubtless a bit has rubbed off on me. Thanx for the comment my friend. Maybe a bit of phase on a remix . . . .

Thanks Cru. Yello were a huge influence in my electronic education. One of the first and best. They've both done interesting solo projects too. :)

on surreal ambiences ft DanceDemagogue by promenade2239

Very nice, minimalist arpeggios sort of a hybrid of techno and trance but like you I enjoy Phillip Glass and a very minimalist structure so I think it's just fine the way it is nice work Alex
Steve

promenade2239 replied 29th Oct 2014 - 11 years ago

Thanks a lot Steve. It's really nice to hear you enjoyed this track. I am happy you had a chance to hear developed version - the song was initially quite simple. After reading the MWRatridge comment I thought of reworking it again but didn't know how to make a progress - DanceDemagogue sent me today his remix - my new version is based on his work.
I really like minimal-music. Probably the 'Variations for winds, Strings and Keyboards' by Steve Reich http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xb6vtl_variations-for-winds-strings-and-ke_music will be my favourite ever - I can't remember how many times I was listening to this.

There's a lot of things happening along the track now so I do not know if it's 'minimal' anymore, but of course it still can be, if needed...
Thanks for your time and nice comments on this track - it's always appreciated. Alex

on Willful Ignorance by Spivkurl

I would call this Aceed-Step. As it has elements of old school dub-step and even older school aceed (acid-house) with a sprinkling of Electro. Super Creative and spivtastic (A new word to secribe great electronic music)
Steve

Spivkurl replied 5th Dec 2014 - 11 years ago

Hey Steve, thank you very much for your comment on this track! I really can't claim to know much about old school dubstep, I just took a ride on the wave (2012-2013) for a little while and then nearly lost myself in the undertow. Acid though I've been enjoying for quite a long time. I like the acid from the early 90's and the early zero's especially, but I can't help but listen to new stuff when it comes up. Coming from someone who knows their classic electronic music well, your comment pleases me! Appreciate it!

on Ginette by Byleth

Il est Parfait! J'aime les "overdrive" The slightly distorted sounds and the haunting pads are perfect for this maudlin Franco-Ballade! I enjoyed this.

Byleth replied 28th Oct 2014 - 11 years ago

wow, merci Crucethus ! thanks for this positive comment imlooking forward to hear some more of your tracks since I hear your Ottawa.
