i definitely like it - it's fucking great actually
i really like the constant changes (i suffer from a short attention span) - my only advice is to bring in a different melody towards the end, over the existing one
and the beginning could be a bit more warm sounding - it sounds sorta tinny
but what the fuck do i know
the drums are fucking great - how do you program drums like that out of curiousity? - i dont make music like this but would love to give it a whirl, when i have before i cant for the life of me make drums like that
on the whole - song is an 8 of 10 - meaning good
you got more stuff?

Squarepusher would be proud. Its good. Really fuckin manic sounding. Not really what my head requires right now. But it's really well put together. Like the interlude aswell.
Great job :D

another awesome track dude! This is even better than your last untitled 128 (says action) track. The only thing I don't like about it is how quiet it goes towards the end. It seems like a very long outro because of this. Keep up the good work anyway!

thanks m8
i know i calmed down the song allot in the end and maby ill raise them alittle bit, but it was a part of my plan to let that weird FXed bass breath allot and also give the reverb and background sound some more space

yeah it's really nice, im just thinking in terms of longevity - you know how autechre still sounds fresh after the 1,000th listen?
would want your stuff to do the same cause it's very close to squarepusher style, and with tweaking could last and sound great for a LONG time...me thinks

Its good and I credit you for your efforts definitely. Some serious skills required for this sort of music and style. That said the main bassline melody is pretty uneffecting after a while. Its starts promisingly but loses momentum very quickly and to try and do the Squarepusher thing it requires more variation with the bassline. Its good but not close to Squarepusher but am still impressed.

who the hell gets close to tha pushah? =)
i dont im sure.
So dont think that i sit down and try to make a song like "im gonna make this squarepusher song"
but offcourse i get inspired. Just as much as i get inspired by Aphex twin and Ae and so on.
i would like to find a total style of my own, but seriously.
if any person hear good drill n bass these days it's either inspired by Tom or Aaron.. at least in most listeners ears
well it doesnt matter, im glad you all liked the song

small mixer, midi keyboard, kondenser mic, crappy mic, FL + loads of free stuff and stuff that i have just found by accident and keept.
Im a collector of all samples,sounds,plug's and so on, u know you can allways use something for something.
but my fav thing to do in my small room is to record sounds =) it's so got damn funny that sometimes i sit a whole day and just bring different types of stuff and records it, then dump it in a big folder and later on a day when i dont feel like making music or recording sounds i sit down and clean up all the sounds i recorded and makes another folder and dump all the sounds in hmmz (tweaked versions) there and im ready to make more music =)
sounds fun right ? heh i bet most people do this, it's really really funny, wish i had a more mobile setup so i could record sounds in more weirder places.

Well like euphonicfilter i also have a horrible attention span. Which might be a reason i got into squarepusher.
While there are a lot of similarities between you and Tom J here it is also clear to me that you have your own style. I want to both acknowledge that it is similar in style and yet your own style. I would need to hear much more to back that up so i will keep listening if you keep making!
Now as for the track.....
FUCK! There IS NO WAY!!!!!!!!! :D!!! Did you rip this off of Tom's secret stash of music that was never to be released?
This shit is brilliant! WTF???????!!?!?!?!?!??!
How long did it take you to make this? See i am more of an ambient guy and i rarely use beats in any of my songs. Such a complex and varied track you made.
If all of your tracks are up to this caliber then anyone who doesnt sign you is and i quote "fucking retarded"!!
That is all! (i liked the slower ending by the way!)
Thanks
signed, Virgins
P.S. EVERYONE SHOULD LISTEN TO THIS NO DOUBT!!! I have JUST been IMPRESSED@@@!!!!@#*&$*%(*%

It is a pretty awesome track, I've listened to it 3 or 4 times now and I think "wow" slightly louder each time. Very polished (in a good way), and with just so many details and touches.... well, for me you start of thinking "how does he do that?" and then, the good thing is, you get blown away with it enough to stop thinking about the process, which i think is important. I agree with what some of the others have said here, but I think with your skill and capacity for invention you'll develop your own sound even more so.

i'll have to provide the lone dissent, i didn't like this track at all. to me there was no memorable music, and though you've done a good job of emulating the style there's really not much substance. you're obviously pleasing the majority of listeners though so you can probably disregard my comments.

i wont disregard at all.
and yeah, there have to be the lone guy i know =P
acctually the negative critics/comments are the thing you remember the most as the thing Euphonicfilter said about the mixing, yes it's alittle "thin" theres allot of bright distorted sounds and not many "harmonic frequences" so im considering to try to mix around alittle bit with the sounds and see if i can get it to sound alittle bit warmer, not too warm thou becouse it is not what the song was intended to sound like.
so the negative critics may be really good as I may sit down tomorrow and try to mix the track better and hopefully it will sound better all thanks to the small comment by Euphonicfilter =)

"i also have a horrible attention span. Which might be a reason i got into squarepusher. "
That's a perfect explanation why I don't like squarepusher at all.
