(spam) bizarre new track

Hi. I've created a track after spending weeks immersed in
various SNES/Megadrive games. It's nothing like anything
else I've made, and nobody (including my label) has liked it
so far. Any takers? Its at my myspace and it's called
"Dr Synth FM".

essence of congs? i'd go with just slapping a bit of TNT on
it... if it had that musky smell, god, i'd ride it in an
instant.

ok I'm 1/3rd way through and its sounding pretty good, but
it needs something to cut through all of it. There is
nothing to really latch onto in the "foreground".
I think get some tight slighlty compressed and v.v. slightly
distorted drums to pull it off.
Nothing fancy. A 4 to the floor 909 will do, just do NOT use
reverb on it and make it muddy like the rest of the track.
I'm talking about fast attacks, nice compression going on.

listening to it now in realtime, I'm at the 3/4 point and
I've had enough. the first 1/3rd was fresh but it just
looses it a bit after the half way point

Can I suggest you chop it in two. Add drums to the first
half as suggested, then I think you will have an awesome
track.

So what if it sounds nothing like Cognessence, why repeat
yourself? Don't want to end up like Aphex Twin.

Keep doing what you're doing, feel free to experiment as
much as you like - and don't listen to any advice ever, you
don't need it.

I can see what you mean, but myspace has done something
particularly odd to this track; I know it affects the
quality of all uploaded music, but it's made this one sound
particularly muddy and lacking in any sense dynamic
contrast. There's a lot going on that seems to have been
lost.

Anyway, thanks for listening sirs. I think I'll take it down
and stick to doing ... other stuff. I'm working on tracks
for a new album and a Cognessence E.P at the moment. This is
one of those strange one-offs.

"Dr Synth FM"?

I really wonder where you got the name and the 909 kick

hear it in all its glory (and also remix it). pretty please.
