Nice Filtered Intro. Synths Remind me a bit of Moments in Love from The Art of Noise...back in the day. I almost feel the vocal line comes in a micro second too soon in some phrases. The reformulated bass piano sound at 1:45 is nice and counterpoints nicely with the melody. Over all a pleasant listening experience.
Nice work.
Steve
Steve - hello!
About the vocal coming in a bit late - yes I Think I can hear that too. I wanted it to come in a tiny bit late for the most time and synced the other times to give it that laid back vibe but now when you mention it, maybe you are right - it should come in late every time to not loose the rhythm. Even for a microsecond.
Thanks for listening!
Hey thanks my friend for the words! That is definitely one of my favorite styles of techno, but I'm no expert. This is one of my favorite songs, especially considering I've never felt good at techno. It's enough to shed a tear knowing what it came out of. I always appreciate your listens and your viewpoint!
Smooth, minimal nicely done, reminds me so much of NYC circa 1998. well done my friend. Bass is driving home the sounds.
percussion is sublime and yet perfectly done. like a masterclass in the genre. well done
Cru
Cheers man and sorry for the late reply. I went on a four day binge session with a mate and sort of forgot about this place for the duration.
Glad you could stop by and check out the track.
FR
Thx crucethus. I had Kraftwerk in mind (when dont I? ha) but I didn't set out to duplicate. It was just the way I approached the sound, more raw than polished I guess you can say. I didn't think the end result sounded anything like them either...that might be still yet to come :)
Thx again cruce, always glad to hear you thoughts.
As others have pointed out this is like the intro to something bigger. I could see you adding so much on top of this to make it incredibly complex (my musician brain) But what a nice idea you have spawned. keep at it my friend.
cru
thanks crucethus. that has been part of the struggle with this one. all the options. but starting to make some decisions and some choices and get organized. thanks very much for great comment and stay tuned. regards - Dan
Hey great topic, good song , I totally get the mic thing, it's so hard to record vocals without a good one.

It's called Moral Awe and has vox clips of the late great Betrand russel giving us perfectly sound secular advice on how we should conduct our daily lives.
thanks for the nice sounds
Cru
Love that intro, the percussion is amazing especially with the ethereal sound lingering in the background. to those who know this genre you have created an amazing piece of work here. Only thing you need is Spiv's vox over this.
Nice job
Cru
Thnx a lot for the useful feedback. It was quite a pain to get this bass sound. I think the walking bass slides well underneath it.
Who knows Spiv wants to give it a try if he ever get to listen to it.
If others have any ideas or what so ever than they can download it and do what ever they feel like.
That's really kind of you to say! I really tried to be in the moment when I recorded these, and I think I atleast captured something in a humane sense. I always appreciate your listen and comment, thank you!
Very Very good sound you have created here. Funky yet refined and tasteful. Then you kick our arses with that synth solo sound via Ultravox! and Pete Bardens. And then there is a nice distorted synth with some awesome pitch-bends. very nice work indeed. You get a fav for an awesome arrangement bridging many styles and sounds together.
Steve
You're too kind! You know i grew up with the sound of Ultravox and i have some kind of a cover of Dancing With Tears in my eyes on the Commodore 64. The funny thing was that i did not have the actual recording myself so i had to memorize the tune before i tried to create the cover.
I'm pretty sure that all my influenses is from the 80's
it's nice and U2 like in some ways without Bono's vox..(your own) which are nice. good guitar work. this is a labour of love I think. Well good work my friend.
Hey crucethus,
thanks for turning in and comment,it´s not me singing this song, wish Bono came along for this track but that´s only a wish, nothing more, nice review.
DRO
It's like the Tourettes version (in a positive way). I really like this one..nice creative work my friend. I was bobbing along to this.
all the best
Cru.
You are the old-school master my friend. I am in awe of your mixes and sounds. This was such a pleasant sound in my ears tonight. Mucho props. Fav'd est downloaded.
Cru
I dunno, i listen to your stuff and think it sounds like better old school than mine. I just chuck a load of loops together and then occasionally "paint" around them with a synth or two.
Glad you could drop in and leave your thoughts on this track.
FR
I recognize and have used some of these loops before. Your voice makes it very nice. almost ethereal.
I love how artists on this site take these loops and make them there own with there interpretation of the sounds. Great work!
Cru
The mic is OK the mix is slightly off. I love your voice and the pan treatment on it. That arpeggio pan needs to be further in the back round of the mix. The Bass just clouds the sounds and the vox. I hate that I don't hear your voice halfway during the mix...because it just becomes "The same Thing" so quick synopsis, I love the beginning and your voice, better mix and you have a cool tune. lose the rappers (not that I dislike rap) there not going to help you as you have a great voice, just make a traditional song.
Cru
Sorry, I didn't understand a lot of that comment. I didn't record the beat, as I said in the description, I just recorded the hook for it. I was considering it, and I might make a version without rap, but I wanna play around and see where it could go.Thank you for your feedback!!!
It is interesting. Today I was listening to early Atari Teenage Riot with their invented genre digital #####. I see some similarities in your music with some of theirs but not quite as biting. I enjoyed this nevertheless as it has an interesting vibe to it
