Guest Tricktrack

Hello. I have been listening to this work for 4 or 5 times now and I really enjoy it. At first I thought that the pad that starts around :12 would not fit it because of the warm beginning but then it worked very well with the mood of the full track. Maybe its volume could be a bit louder. I like how the acid sounds and the hats you added through it are emerging, that is prettily done. Nice groove around 2:25.

I'll probably re-record it and do a better job with the levels, it was a rush job for a live set I'm playing.

 

Sorry acromax, no vsts were used for the pads, it's a Juno-60 doing the organ, an MKS-50 doing the strings and a Matrix 1000 doing the alarming sounding pad. If I was trying to recreate those sounds on vst I'd probably give something like d16's lush-101 or one of the uhe synths a go. Like your track by the way, it's jungletastic

i don't enjoy the place where this track transports me to, i blame the main harmonies of the song, it's just a personal preference, nothing more. there's a little shortcut at 2:30 which pleases me very much, when the chords change. but then we're back on the main galactic highway and i don't quite like the view. :( that is all!

Fair play, it's inspired by reading a lot of conspiracy nut stuff in my spare time, been studying apocalypticism so that's why it sounds a bit end of the world grim. The nicer chords are supposed to the bits where I remember it's all just a dream.

Sweet track. Very cyberpunkish! There's something off with the gliding acid bass at 2:12. I can't put my finger on it, so it might be multiple things. Like it's a little too much out of tune, time, and maybe in the wrong key? I dunno, you should look into that. Besides that, pretty mental.

Very rough sounding but then again I like it rough. The beat sounded really nice. This is just a matter of taste but I felt that it didn't even need all that melodic synth lead -stuff. I'd prefer a more harder, minimalistic approach with this sound palette. Boddikas "When I dip" came to mind but then again I might be talking out of my ass. Anyway stick to the rough stuff and make it your strength.

Yeh you're not the first person to tell me to ditch lead lines, I'm kind of wed to them though. Perhaps I'll do two edits and pursue either avenue.

Nice. Definitely needs more bass tho!

Mix is a bit mid rangey.

Yeh it's not mixed, just set levels and pressed record, I had to get it off hardware and into Ambleton for a live set. Sometimes working to a tight deadline helps, actually I think it pretty much always does.

 

This track is currently on come back to spike, trying to get enough material for another ep/album together.

I am digging the vibe in general, but there are a few sounds I'm not too in to. In particular I think its the snare hit that is really loud. I don't think there is anything wrong with the sound, just that it's too loud. The other one that I'm not crazy about is the pad that seems to be throughout. Maybe its the wide stereo image of the reverb? I'm not exactly sure. Sounding good in general though!
