haha you have been a right funny fucker the last couple of days :D
promo: Noooo, I don't really like this one as much as No. 4, it sounds like cheesy 80's music. Some people will love it, it is happy, chessy and fun sounding...actually it's not too bad at all :P

Pretty nice...it has a really old school flavour about it...nice programming though...I like the effects you have used.
Shit this track takes me back years...I feel all nostalgic.

ecnadniarb,
Cheers man. Yeah its definitely more of a commercial sound. Miami Vice kinda really sums it up. Its quite an oldee too, I did this one 5 years ago back in '98.

Spacecadet,
Thanx for hijacking my board. :-)
Checking your track out now. Your trax kinda reminds of Clear Records' stuff, its not bad. Sounds a bit like Clatterbox. I think it'd be nice if the notes were a bit more impacting but I'm going to listen to it a few times. Nice rocking beats for sure though. Very Clatterboxy your trax for sure.

Always glad to return the favor...
Definitly brings me back, old school flavor, the white noise over the top keeps it back in the day. Good drum beat, some solid little nuances there.
Yeah, 80's miami beach techno... oh man... the Guido's would love this
Like the squitchy hi hat sound, the break at 2:30 would be cool with some more defined call and answer stuff between the guitar and the mallet patch, like 2 by 2 bars jazzy style. Did a good job with the drums, was it programmed or sampled? Guessing sampled by the way it sounds, using the reverb to make it all sound like it's on the same sound stage. Works well.
Some little problems like when the reverses come in around 1:20 or so, made me twitch, didn't flow. Little bit repetitive for me over all, I get tired of the melody about a minute in. I'd love to see a bass line besides the pads to give it the same energy that the drums have. Little bit too much reverb overall for my tastes, but hey, that's the 80's sound for ya.
Nice track!

Yeah ok... there's a really weird stutter at the end of the drums, like a quarter of a second, but noticable to my ears when I listend again... like the loop is slightly out of sync
Like at 1:54-1:55 and again at 3:13-3:14
Weird

Unfortunately it is as is. I don't have the original midi trax anymore. If I had the original I would have given it more variation for sure. I did it back in 1998 so I was still learning at the time.
No samples in the track at all. Its all 100% programmed. To develop it more I'd have to recreate it or sample it again. Its a shitty recording too 'cause its been rerecorded into digital format from analogue tape. I too would have liked to have advanced this track a lot more but unfortunately the original midi track got deleted. Maybe I can find it if I search around. Cheers.

Sanguine,
I like your white noise comment thats killer man. I wondered what you were talking about but thats actually tape hiss and wasn't intended but now I realise its probably quite cool within its context. Lol.

Dial up, shit that must be a nightmare! There is no way I could do a fraction of the downloading I do without broadband.

Yeah, the white noise thing was one of the first things I noticed... was trying to figure out if it was intentional or not and just realized it fits
I think my ear is getting better, reviewing people's tracks like I try and do helps me see details I wouldn't otherwise see in my own music

I like this track, it's funny and all, but it definitely needs more random french vocals.

The Bro - Old Ain't Bad : Hmm, not impressed by the beginning beat and bass combo :D Sounds like march of the casios, 1989~! hehe.. not such a big fan of this one -- don't really like the instrumentation, to be honest :)
