[SPAM] New track (finally)

New track. Kind of a fresh start for me. A bit of a
different style than my previous beat-fuckery style. I did
this with a bit of motivation for a buddy of mine. He will
soon be laying an MC track over top of it. Anyways, let me
know what you think!

It's track 5 on page.

Rotary

maybe it'd work better with an mc, otherwise the melodic
development isn't very interesting and it adheres to a sound
that has already been refined by others. personally, i
liked some sounds but there were some that were a little
irritating, there is a sense of too much contrast between
elements, for example in the cymbal ride (or one of them,
maybe there were a couple).

you went to the trouble of making sounds from scratch, but
the repeating samples (of your own sounds) without any
tweaking make the track feel static. what's missing is a
sense of tension, dynamics, movement.

i'm sorry i can't be more positive at the moment. keep
working, that's the only way to better tracks.

plaid-that is an excellent critique. Don't worry about it...
that's the kind of review I'm looking for, it does only help
me get better. And I know what your talking about with the
words "movement and dynamics". The problem with my
production techniques is their very loop based and theres no
real sense of overall rhythm to a lot of my tracks, it's
just cut n paste style. Thanks again for the advice and
listen! More please

i agree with plaid, but continue making tunes and try to
incorporate, every track adds to your experience so no track
is a waste of time.

i like something in your musik , but i agree With Cx , this
is not a waste of time , but my questions is : have you try
to incorporate some melodies n your track ? more melodies
and emotions will make us love it more !

yea, thats one challenge i have yet to overcome... ive
always focused more on beat production i lost touch with the
melodies. id definitely like to invoke more emotion. not
sure of the best techniques though...any tips?
