Quantum- Point Taken (IDM)

Hey guys, this is my most recent track that i have created, it's kinda chilled idm, with a bit of syncopation going on on the rythms. It's quite adventurous arrangement wise, but it is still a wip, would be great to hear what you guys think, good or bad. Thanks

Some tasty waffles you've got there, but I think it needs some butter and a tidbit more syrup.

The saying goes, "Something interesting should happen every X seconds," where X varies between genre/person. I'd put it in the single digits for IDM/me. I'd like to here it with a few more little things here and there to spice it up. Filter this, glitch that, change the pattern for a beat/bar here, put a more dramatic transition there.

Thanks for the feedback man, yeah a bit more variation is definately something i could look at. What did you think of the production? cheers

Sounds pretty well mixed to me. Only thing I could put out there would be to not shy away from bringing melodic stuff to the front for this or that. You might even be able to throw in another synth part or two.

Play with some filter manipulation/automation as well perhaps.

Thanks man, yea i could do with brining the melodic elements for the fore-front more, i'll also have a look at some filter manipulation. cheers man
