sort of an 80's-ish psuedo-j-pop throwback vibe happening in here... Jeez, did we go to high-school together or something? John Hughes would approve.

Ahhhhh your description is better than mine hahahaha, I'm glad you like it! I don't know if we did I'm actually 22 how old are you?
aahaha thanks for listening and this comment!!

nice little buildup. I wish the track grabbed me a bit more suddenly though. You've got a good thing going here and I think you can take this somewhere. I like your work overall. There is a ton of energy in this but somehow it feels a bit light? I can't put my finger on it. maybe it's my speakers. Keep at it - this is good stuff.

GameTime responds:

I don't know what it is either. It felt empty in some weird ways. I tried adding a stronger sub bass, but that didn't do much

Nice work... this is just screaming for vocals... Great track tough - keep it up. I want to hear more of this.

S-Rock responds:

Been trying since 07 on here ^^ thanks for the listen and the review.

Really nice track, this. So many elements coming together so nicely. The hard panning in the beginning threw me off for a moment - I was almost going to give my speaker a kick - but as soon as other sounds came up, it all fell into place. This is just a personal preference but I almost wanted the drums to cut out at about 3:16 for a few bars to let the guitar do it's thing on it's own for a bit. All around though, this is a very emotive and lovely piece and in retrospect, of the 11 minutes I spent listening to it, I don't feel like even a second of it was wasted. Well done.

pitbulljones responds:

Thank you LJC for your kind words. Haha, I have new speakers, some m-audio db5's and they really bring out the stereo field so I'm really into heavy panning of my shizz now. I'm doing a remix of this at the moment, as there's some peaking issues apparent. I'll have a listen to your suggestion regarding dropping the drums. I'll let you know when it's done. Again, thanks for the review.

Lovin' this quirky little discobot. I'm so glad to see that you're still dropping bits on this board!

Kingbastard responds:

hello there! Long time no speak;) Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. I don't get a lot of those these days;)

Sick.

jarrydn responds:

cheers brah :)

Perfect!

Shame on Rucklo and I for leaving reviews ;D
- We wouldn't want to influence the outcome of the MAC so early.
...or would we?

This was perfect given the current MAC theme. This is exactly the type of thing that we were hoping to hear.

Thanks for setting the bar so high with this entry!

Cool flippy

The score is way too low on this track. I guess people aren't giving it a chance or aren't able to appreciate it... I do though - I thought it was a trippy little head groove. Damn nice.

snoballandthmonyshot responds:

alright old chap, i knew u would.
what is dis score u speak of?

Noisalicious an' Dirtiffic

Fuxxin slick track. Got a great new-school fusiony feel to it - if that makes any sense... Really nice work all around.

snoballandthmonyshot responds:

thanks old boy

Hmmmm....

As far as timbres go, I'm liking everything except the kit you used for the percussion. Also, not really hip-hoppy... feels a little too upbeat for hip-hop and a little too laid back for anything else really...

Still, nice that you're mixing up a few styles.

A few minor mastering issues here - again, a low cut would clean things up and a limiter would prevent any unintentional digital distortion. I think you may want to experiment a little with multiple compressors. Compress the drums on their own to thicken them up, then run everything through a second compressor and make a few tweaks to your levels to get everything to gel a bit tighter.

Decent work for NG - -=4/5=-

SREvol responds:

good idea with the 2 compressors, i never thought of doing it that way. a note on the limiter: a tend to stay away from anything that ends in izer or iter :P using limiters and sizers in my opinion destroy the sounds especially if you have a peaking db sound like the "sci-fi echo" sounds at the start. a low cut is needed and probably an envolope filter on the 3rd kick and 2nd snare which are a tad too sharp. :( thanks for the 4, it was generous :P

I do all of the above. I mean it. I can back it up too.
