Well, it's nothing to really rave about, but I thought some of you might like it, sonce I haven't been here for a while, I guess I should come with some presents. This is my latest track that I made for my girlfriend's presenation and is a pretty poor, lighthearted hip-hop-ish, dub-ish piece of crap. As I am a clumsy bastard, you will (well, at least Titsworth) will notice that the beat is lifted from another track in its entirity. It's a very well known hip hop break anyway... There are some "nice" touches to this track and this is why I thought some of you might like it. Then again, you might hate it... Think Boom Bip or DJ Shadow in terms of mood, though really I'm more into Scorn or Spectre or DJ Krush... I can't make a link so you'll have to paste this into your browser piece by piece and I hope it's worth the effort. It's 6.25 MB and is called Black Sun Dub for a reason. http://artists.iuma.com/site-bin/mp3gen/90367/IUMA/Bands/DJ _Meho/audio/DJ_Meho_-_Black_Sun_Dub.mp3 |

Pro: Catchy groove, sadly the drum line isn't yours, but the rest of the elements do add to it, nicely put together. The drum sounds you add would sound a lot cleaner if you applied an effect over them AND the drum line when you bring them in, subtle, maybe some distortion or flang, in my humble opinion. I am a fan of subtlety, a lot of the ambient ideas could be developed well along those lines Con: Repetitive. VERY repetitive, choppy transitions. The changes in the melody and subtle line differences just aren't doing it for me... this should be a three minute piece. Some of the samples, notably the piano riff, don't melt into the piece... they start and stop really awkwardly Needs some work, but sounds like you know that... keep um coming! |

Thaks, sang, I kinda agree with most of what you say. It was basically spliced up in one afternoon and it sounds like that too. Not that I can do much better anyway.... |

Course you can! It's all little things that need to be fixed... details... I could make quite a few recommendations on the sampling technique, and I'm sure tons of people on here could too, just ask the questions Example... usually I take a sample with some ambient/reverb before and after instead of cutting it off, and fading the sample in to when it comes in. This helps it sound smooth Work on the building blocks, and the rest is just what kind of imagination you have... like Mike P said in your interview, it's all about the imagination. Once you get the basics done, that's the limitation... you just gotta get comfortable with the basics still |

Ahh, I know what you mean, but I'm just too lazy and have no real ambition I'm afraid... Come to think of it, I probably shouldn't let my music be heard by public, hehehe... |
