I must say I was expecting crap , but it wasn´t , not at all . . .

But I agree onthe above comment , it needs more variation . . . very nice sounds and beats . .

I dig the synths on this, and the chord changes. Nice work.

The drums could use some variation over the course of the track, as could the structure as a whole. The drums get a bit buried in the synth wash, which works well for the overall sound, but perhaps some creative EQ'ing could clean it up a bit. I like the somewhat hazy sound of the mix though...

thanks again for the honesty. alot of the times on myspace people tend to be scared to let some one know if a track is or is not working. im glad you guys are giving me some feedback that i can trust.

I really like this :) personally it doesnt bother me that the beats dont change, it adds to the hypnotic effect IMO

BTW I think maybe the master outputs are overloading a bit cos it sounds distorted to me (or maybe something else is causing it?)

If the mix / overall sound was better / cleaner id buy this if it was released....

Yo, what up ct43 :)

NJH, your beats are alright - just keep doing what you're doing and plugging the beats

enough heads on here are honest enough to steer you in the right direction - which you already are

peace

you are right about it being distoted, after listening again i realised this. when making this i wanted a grainy feel but i over did it. i will fix it within the next few days. thank for taking your time out to listen and for the feedback.. i am so glad people are being honest about what they hear.
