Turbulent Sleep
I wrote it last night after a nightmare. This nightmare involved me trying to reach a light switch on an oscillating ceiling fan, and also consisted of my computer basically dying. I heard this melody in my dream near the end, and when i woke up i realized what it was - a distant train horn.
It was 2 am this morning, and I quickly rushed to a keyboard to write down the melody before i drifted back to sleep. I finished it today.

Not a big fan I'm afraid...lovely drum work as usual, but the track lacked quite a lot of feeling and mood. Some sections are nice...but overall I don't think it is close to your best work.

Yep, the track sounded a little flat. You need to use some fuller sounds, expand it out a bit.
Do you do your tracks in midi? What do you use for the drum sequencing?

the sequencing is either with hammerhead for the grooves, and is then cut-up and fucked around with with sound recorder then cut and paste for the scattershot bits.
all the keyboards are live-played from a Yamaha PSS-470, then sequenced with hammerhead.

btw, i've never heard yours - since my comp seems to be working again, i'll try and check it out - i am on dial-up though, so as usual there's no guarantee.

hey, fresh beat. like hella fresh. i think the synth pads lose some of their sweetness due to the low bitrate so i'm not really diggin the synths. but the crazy breaks are phat.
i like the melody, its pretty chill. but i think deffinately the beats are carrying this track. the beats are the best part, the meats yo. ya know what i'm sayin?
'specially at the 4 min mark.
so in summary:
beats = lush synth pad sounds = meh melodys = chill

this rocks! i like the synths and drums sounds a lot. i think the melody is great. the only thing that seems a little out of place is those high-pitched synth breaks - perhaps if they were lower in the mix? this is one of my all-time favorite oddioblenders!

I ain't into mega technical multi layer left speak spacial fuck jack wad this and the other shit. Gimne a good melody and a decent enough beat and thats all I care about. Lektrogirl does the most simplest of trax no spacial speaker this that and the layer integrated beat effect bollox just straight up simple tunes and beats. And they're damn enjoyable. Thats the kinda spirit I think Oddi is aiming for.
