btw larn, do you still need that map I made for the indiana jones red line animation? There are plenty of tutorials to do it on aftereffects, flash, etc. If you want I can pass you the jpg along so you can make it yourself.

thanks, will check out your tracks soon....I've not made the wedding video because i've been too busy with other projects, but i have some time off work next week so i want to do it.
send me the map and if you can point me in the direction to the tutorials i'd appreciate it. i have aftereffects which i think i will find easier than flash

mmm soundcloud might be more useful, both of those links kept buffering then tried to install random stuff on my computer- if you've got a way for me to listen without that inconvenience by all means link.

alright i'm listening to the top 4 and giving you mindblowing critique on each one (at $500 usd per track you agree to these terms by reading this far)
green heritage: i like the pads a lot, and the sorta major to minor tension thing ur doing with them- the squeak/reso base is kinda flat imo, maybe some pan/bal to it?- and speaking of tension i never really get the feeling of release in the song
also u know 4/4 4/floor kick drum, neat don't get me wrong and we all use it from time to time but... meh
over all i give this song about 6 thumbs up (don't ask where i got all these thumbs)
space bishop: much better with the reso on this, and i dig the oldschool beats- the sample cuts into the song seem a bit ... generically placed, 'one' and 'two' being about all i hear you cutting from it. the lead synth is very neat
i'd give this one an A + any day of the week, regardless of the sampling issue (which was awesome at the beginning, just think u could have taken something more from it)
alpha acid: resonance on this one is just a bit too heavy, idk maybe that's what you intended but i think it could stand a slightly lower level in relationship to the rest of it, maybe splitting up the high and low effects of that particular channel and compressing just the high parts? meh- overall i like the zaniness of this one, and of course it's reference to ILLEGAL DRUG USE which is cool 'cause it's against ESTABLISHED PRINCIPLES- i suppose i'd give this one an 8 on the kinsey scale
res dia: ooh strings, they sound like preset samples but i'm probably a terrible judge, and again- let me make a guess, you really like reso bass huh? well the strings mingle really nicely with it and the 4/floor beat, a bit linear for me but otherwise pretty nice, again though i think you elevated the level on your 'main' a bit too much- i'd lower those strings just a tad so everything else can shine too- i suppose i'd give this one 6/7 points
cheers.
oh and i'm following you on my soundcloud now, if you're *cool

your reviews sound fair, I find the mixing tips useful and straight to the point, that's an area I have still much to learn. Consider it's soundcloud so when it's over and it's not really shit it goes there, I've got shittier things I don't share and ideally I would save or collect the better ones for some sort of album/ep. The ep I linked in the first post was a collection of hi-res-bass heavy tracks (alpha acid, unbo, sad acid, 3rd view), there's stuff of different kind on that page but yes, I like squelchy bass sounds.
I followed you back, I'm listening at the moment.
Fixing to learn has some interesting chord modulations and hiQ lowpass filtering. The general mood of the song is not clear to me, the main melody was a bit wandering. It does have "learn" in the title so I guess it's some sort of experiment.
Grab my arm sounds good, I like the first pad. I was expecting some new melody on another instrument at 1:20 but nothing new comes until 2:00 when you duplicate chord line on an higher octave (at the same velocity and thus sounding too high in volume), that pad pitched up doesn't sound good imho. On this track there are interesting production techniques and clever sequencing on the drums part.
Injure self pride, sounds jazzy, again nice drums.
Tolerance and doubt, this doesn't sound too clever (the idm tag doesn't help either), the clipped/distorted bass is out of place and the lack of a recognizable melody played on it makes it more questionable.
Acid control, it doesn't have hiresbass in it :P but it has nice sampling at starting 2:40, nice drumming again (samples are a bit muddy)
All the same, I like the clashing of intune/detuned melodies.
Ship full of water, I like the bitcrush effect at the start and the ongoing drum part is good. Weird scale modulations at 2:30.
That lady, sounds boring, sorry I skipped
Though, has cover art, I'm expecting something special. A nice bass pad enters at 1:00. followed by a cool processed bass at 1:45, that's something di

that's something different and nice sounding. I don't like drum part on this track, the openhats especially sound out of place. There's a weird scale modulation at the end. So far this is the track I like best toghter with grab my arm.
Ok that's it, my thread is officially derailed :)
