That's nice Richard... Clear, strong mix...

[/QUOTE]

Like it. Not a fan of genre, but this sound very solid. Hope you're not going to extend it too much, i think 3 min is enough.

Not completely happy with some parts yet...



Just a soundtest

Nice! could use a more earthy kick and more swing (both of which have been mentioned I guess )

The trance track is also nice - could use a string to develop it more. Did you use an arpeggiator? I'm not really getting the results I want with Ableton's Arp.

Half finished track I made recently, not quite sure where to take it. I had a bunch of stuff going on but stripped it back becasue it didn't feel right..

It's a cool groove and i like background noise... but it's completely flat and static. Use the knobs, some wise man said

Agree with @gordan100 on this WIP - need to have more development going on in here.

Just initial and basic concept without any fillers and FX but melody should be there - what do you guys think?

Like it. Not too cheesy, just about right. Nice bassline, like the transition at 1:20.

i was actually going to title the post "Gone Woony" as i was trying to go for that laid back style that is in most of your tracks
swing can easily be fixed, kick seems to stand out a bit too much maybe so will look at changing that

like it, clap sample is cool - yeah maybe modulate the chord sounds somehow, filter or tonality...

yeah, bass very heavy and the drums get slighty lost in the mix, needs some tweaking i think

the soundtest is nice, has potential!

yo Darek, long time! its a nice start i guess but something does not sit right with the groove for me, a bit stop-start, maybe you can develop it further......

How is going man lol - just took some time off for my family and looking forward to produce again - appreciate your and @gordan100 comment on this early WIP

Just give me some clue about the part which is not clicking with you

Once you get the mix sorted, it will be better than anything I could make for sure.

There is an issue with your bass, like the first note is good, but when it goes a little higher you lose so much sub frequency content that it doesnt work. Maybe either try 1 octave lower for the rest of the notes, and mixed in with higher octave, create a new channel for that. Or, play with synthesis, or.. remove the sub from that bass, create a sub layer and layer that bad boy in problem solved.

Should be good then but, take my advice with a grain of salt





My first dub technoish track/wip, I know the bongos are no good mainly because they're so static, im gonna buy a djembe or something off craigslist and replace it when I can. Its probably not very good but I had fun.

Oh common... thanks but that track is fairly simple, you have done much better stuff than this.

Like this. Nice ambient track.

Pretty mystified sound you have going on in there MAc, like how slowly you unwind your melodic story with crafty structuring your progression - so far so good man, also appreciate your input on my WIP and will check this issue with main and sub bass lines

You know, I really love that bassline. In fact, I'd probably ditch that synth altogether and let the bass be the lead.

I understand nothing of this kind of music, but it's very hypnotic. I don't actually mind the bongos, but they could be layered with something else. And you might want to rethink that alias.

So this morning I was bored, so I started slicing up some breaks. Suddenly I had this in my hands.

Liking the melodic development a lot, but needs cooler drums and bass line

That's a lovely piece mate, lots of people do ambient like a film score drone but you bring grove and feeling to the table

The bongo is good, if you want it to sound more alive I would suggest (and you probably already know this) doing say a 16 bar loop, moving around the bong hits, automating the eq and room verb throughout, widening and narrowing the stereo field, you know keeping things moving).

How is going Toby? - as far as your WIP work goes there is two things which draw my attention (or take away from the melodic part) - one is kick which could be a bit more thicker and second is this mid-bass line which vibrate (or has some LFO on it) a bit too much for my taste lol - the rest is slowly growing on me and after like third time I started to really like it
