Listen to my tune "Fannki" and tell me what ye think.
It's a little funky piece, nothing special, though a happy
tune. ^_^

it makes me think of a chipmunk off his lunch, stumbling
around, looking for a place to toss his berries.

he stumbles into an old friend who was having a really good
day, all smiling and full-on chipmunk whistling. they catch
one another's eye in the park and then the first chipmunk
blows all over the other's furry foots.

that's what i think of your track.

Chipmunks? Ahaha, ah, well, any thoughts are fine.

_user, "The third step from Dancemusic" sounds as if it
could belong to a NES-game. Eerie-sounding Nintendo-music.

I think it'd be good if the beats got more funky. The
bassline is nice and funky but I guess what one is looking
for is for the beat to be a bit more funky.

I didn't really like it, it didn't get me moving or really
involved in the music

I did like the pad thing over the bass line, that almost
made up for the drums, but you didn't play off it more than
the one idea and had it come back later

The drums don't fit together very well, not tight.
Compression, verb, something could help tie them together to
make it sound better.

The drums get a lot better at the end, I agree with the
other posters, playing on the drum line some more would add
quite a bit I hear a lot of stuff I've heard before, bass
line is solid but uninteresting, drums are flat, the panning
on the snare is too obvious and too much for my tastes.

It's hard trying to give you a review when I don't know what
you're going for, and I try to be as honest as I can. I
think this is good groundwork, you have a feel for beats,
and the bass/pad selection means you have a pretty good ear
beyond that... but you have tons of polishing to do and need
to work on your transitions a lot. The piece doesn't flow
very well, but it's not choppy

Eh... ask questions if you want, hope that helped

On second thought, I need to go rockclimbing...

I listened through lazer, I like the loop it starts out
with, with the white noise dropping out into the punchier
sounds, looping that and playing with it could be really
interesting...

Reminds me of music from the really older electronic crowd,
especially the first few space oriented TV shows that
incorporated this kind of music. I'm not very good at
reviewing this sort of thing, you'd have to explain what you
were going for, would help a lot... and I'll check back
tomorrow or the day after when I get back from Squarepusher

you're lucky......

it's not actually a loop.....it's a sort of live
recording.....

btw, if you'll want to say something about mytx [when you'll
get back], can you post messages in obscure sounds thread
pls.....

Great comments, Sanguine. I'll see what I can do.
Remember, though, I only made it for fun, "nothing special"
as mentioned.
