Phlange Phucker

title is a huge phucking turn off, no thanks

what sort of opinion is that ?

not really a fan of the hard techno style, but i've got a few comments.

in the beginning the drums are too fuzzy (bitcrushed?). it doesn't really work, but then you fix them at around 0:23 -- it should be like this the whole time.

the riff that comes fully in around 0:20 is pretty boring and sticks around too long. the twiddling is nice, but not enough! basically i think 0:25 - 1:10 should be like condensed to something half the length - going through the same effects, but hanging on them less.

the transition at 1:10 is fucking sweet, as is pretty much everything from then on!

i could definitely imagine some high pitched screamy leads coming on and playing some frantic melodies at various points after 1:10, though it's your beast to tame, not mine!

once it gets going, this is good shit!

in case it wasn't clear -- this was a live jam.

i thought those drums made the beat at 0:23 sound better... otherwise i would have just cut it off (i did cut off a bit before it opens, just me checking levels really).

agree with you 100% -- i got bogged down with my ms2000 and lost the groove. after floundering around a bit i got frustrated and slammed open the delay feedback. that seemed to get things back on track

this track was a first jam after rearranging my studio. wasn't using much of my gear -- if i'd had more of it switched on, i probably would have gotten into it past 1:10

Whoa. Very nice, sir. Aside from the drums in the beginning as was mentioned earlier, a very nice track.

thanks.

what a mess. i deny any responsibility

don't really like this kind of ountz ountz percussion unless its over supremely amazingly beautiful melodies that make me feel like I'm getting head from a victoria secret model. the excessive flanger? effects kind sound cool but incredibly random and dont help the track at all in my opinion. I dunno, im definitely not the person to talk to about this style of electronic. didnt really enjoy at all to be honest but thats just me. give me your Adam a7's.. pleeeeeez?

hey man i just push the buttons and turn the knobs ok???

also i should add my net return on this music shit is like -$15k at this point and i fully expect most people to keep shitting on it.

I dug it. Sounds like Universal Indicator or something.

Nice live jam.

Reminds me of Devils Ray Core on Neptunes Lair (the drexciya album). Sweet track, mr hat.
