culled these two tracks (and some others) from my new ep entitled 'awakened' (coming soonish). i just couldn't get these trks right and thereofre couldn't justify them being on there. so i post these as rejected tracks to maybe give an idea of where the ep was going. criticism is definetely welcome.

 

no titles only numbers/takes

 

this one i like but couldn't get the piano right and decided it wasn't really good enough. i've covered the ground better on another track. i think realised when i was making it too, check the end sample.

this one i realized i only liked the ending, so its scrapped.

The break in the first track is class! Where are the vocals from? The ones going "Go go, I'm waiting"?

Melodies are great aswell plus the beat is nice and trip-hop-kinda-like...

 

The beat on the other track is really nice aswell and those are some awesome vocals!

I thought it was gonna be a chilled track when it first started out but I was proven wrong... you should make another version where you change the drums into something a bit more dub or chill-out-like because the melodi seems to done...

very nice. the beginning of 4 is disorienting, but the elements combined form a really dope groove. man, this is such a fresh sound, i'm excited to hear the finished ep. the sounds are very smooth and clean, yet there is so much happening, that's what i love the most about it.

 

right off the bat, i love 6. great choice of samples, good flow. i agree with squee, however. the drums seem like they could use more attention. i can imagine both of these tracks being salvaged somehow in the future, they have some great moments.

I didn't like the first one to be honest, but the drum work is pukka as usual..

 

I thought the 2nd one was great.. I actually think the 2nd one shows more talent than anything I've heard from you before

 

is that you singing?

i liked the 1st more than the 2nd (mainly cuz i thought the drums were pretty weak on the 2nd) all your samples are top notch....really well combined n such....i don't really see any problems with the 1st....maybe just more postproduction to get stuff to stand out more.....i liked all the melodic elements of the 2nd just thought the drums didnt fit and the beat felt way too rigid. the jazzy feel is really tight, specially over the hiphop beats on the 1st tune....

those are quite sweet. i really enjoyed the breaks in the first song. god i have presently spewed yellow chunks from those sweet as butter drum rolls.

I like these alot, late night jazzy samples and subtle breakments. Good use of samples, reminds me abit of Jack Dangers.

 

i'm certainly a fan, of the last album anyways. ta
