Reviewsi really like the creepySubmitted by ruffian on Fri, 2006-10-27 14:45.
i really like the creepy granulated pad in the intro. major break choppage going on here, a little busy for my taste but well done. that vox in the breakdown is awesome, although it has too much low-end verb i think. some percussive elements would sound better with a wider stereo image (hats/cyms maybe). and i would love to hear a louder layer of twisting, warping mid-bass. the track seems a little bare overall... maybe more fx layered in. the ones that are there sound real nice tho. those are the type of pads/fx i try to make. #162.

#162. This reminds me a little of Break & Hydro. The bassline is deep as fuck, Godzilla couldn't sing that low! I like the beats but sometimes they seem a little too much, I mean slightly sloppy (not sure thats the right word)... but thats a minor gripe. Good dark vibes all round. Like the vocal sample as well. That intro voice sample isSubmitted by Bluntman and Co... on Sat, 2006-10-28 00:12.
That intro voice sample is hot. I dont know why i like it so much but i do."All these years,i thought this palce was real,this place that haunted my dreams" lol. Then that bass comes in....sick bass man, had my subs banging. Drums are tight,feels like somethings missing from the song,maybe its just me,picked the right song for that voice samp,goes perfectly with it. I would have put alittle more into the backround,but thats just me. I dont hear anything off or anything like that, sick tune. interesting beat work toSubmitted by synrgy on Wed, 2006-10-25 23:13.
interesting beat work to start this track. I like the programming. not super crazy about the high hat samples, they dont' sit right in the mix.. so this is a pretty nice dark roller. I like the bassline a lot, but feel like it could use some higher frequencies. I like the drum edits throughout for the most part, but I feel like some of the hits are chopped too short.. if you're playing them through something in which this is possible, try bringing up the release, or if you're editing the chop points yourself, you may want to widen your chops and use attack or fade ins to compensate. My only major complaint with the track is that the atmospherics are a little too much in the background, I'd love to have heard them take over a little more once or twice in the track to add overall movement. It may be the reverb, but everything outside of the drums and bass sounds kind of buried. Besides all that this track is pretty solid. It's arranged wonderfully, my only real issues are with your mix and a few of the samples/chops. Great drum edits, good bassline, bass and drums sound good together, which is the biggest key in drum n bass, obviously, so good job there. Arrangement - 4.5 i like the drum programming,Submitted by mabus on Tue, 2006-10-31 02:41.
i like the drum programming, the atmospherics are good, except that pad you have droning in the background, it would sound better imo if you had it playing some different stuff, or if it didn't play so often. the bass is really nice too. 162 - the intro seems quiteSubmitted by Contayjen on Sat, 2006-10-28 07:32.
162 - the intro seems quite basic just drums and pads, but it picks up. The drums seem quite loud in the intro. Nice sample, maybe a touch too much reverb on it. The bass is phat and throbbing when it comes in. The melody the bass is playing is cool, likewise the drum pattern, but more could be going on this tune and generally more variation. Its just drums, bass and pads, which aren't changing too much over the course of the track, with the odd sample to break things up. Decent enough vibe, but the track leaves room for improvement. loving the dub/industrialSubmitted by Golem on Tue, 2006-10-24 23:37.
loving the dub/industrial beat and pattern but needs more elements in the intro pad needs to be louder and the amen clashes with the main drum pattern, the vocal is nice, the bass doesnt do it for me either i think it doesnt roll enough and i can tell you wanted this to roll but the amen over the drum pattern makes it sound unintentional like you've just slappen on an amen and not even chopped it to fit with the main break i thought break would be heavier aswell, this tune needs more variation and elements IMO sorry if i am being harsh im only trying to help this is nothing personal m8! intro sounds ok, the beatsSubmitted by Dj Obscure on Wed, 2006-11-01 05:11.
intro sounds ok, the beats seem a little rough around the edges, no doubt intended though. the pads n stuff sound nice, sound too quiet though. i really like that sample, gives it a nice vibe with the synth thats rolling with it. bass sounded pretty nice, got a bit boring after a while though. there wasnt enough to this track imo which ultimatley let it down for me. There are a couple of thingsSubmitted by DJ Shiver on Thu, 2006-10-26 19:33.
There are a couple of things that annoy me about this track, first the drums seem out of synch with each other. Where they've been layered they don't seem to blend properly. The other thing is that it doesn't progress at all throughout the tune. There's no build up or expansion that i think this really needs. I like the pad and the idea behind the drums but i think its lacking in the execution. Sorry but got to be honest. Drums need tightening - theySubmitted by Royalston on Thu, 2006-10-26 00:15.
Drums need tightening - they are loud and fairly punchy but theres too many hits in there for my liking - and , if you are putting heaps of layered drums they have to hit at the same time...they cant be a little out...it just gets too crazy. Vocal sample...seems like the standard thing to chuck in a DnB track if you cant work out a build up...maybe chuck some hats over it to keep the tension/ rhythm going? Process the vocal more and take off some off the muddy reverb. bass is big and solid but needs rhythm - on and off. a beat etc. its just one long pulse. Vary the synth in the background...it never changes. |
