If this were 1990 I would be complimenting you on a job well done. As it stands it sounds like a track that has been recorded in 1990 and the tape has deteriorated over the years. What did you use to record it with? It sounds like something recorded off the radio. I'm not accusing you of doing that btw...it could just be an interesting technique to use when making a track. |

i was trying to re-create that kinda low quality authentic feel, but i might just do a clean version, i guess it is a bit of a cliché idea afterall. it was all made on reason btw. i could try that whole radio thing, as i've got a radio transmitter for my ipod, so i could do it if i wanted..... |

You succeeded...anyone into the music of that era would love it I am sure. I don't think it would work clean as the muggy sound gives it a warmer feel. I quite like it having listened through twice now. |

I will start with the bad news, nothing too critical...Frequency bleed between kick and bass at the start caused destructive reinforcement...probably just be the speakers im listening on tho (not ideal for reference). Metallic hi hat was a bit too loud and decay too long imo. I Liked the synth sounds you used, reminded me a bit of Donkey Rhubarb..I like how it all comes together after a couple of minutes, nice beat programming and a structure that stays interesting As for the ideas and the track as a whole....I really liked it, I personally think it just needs a couple of little tweaks on the mixer :) Nice work! |

The bass and the kick share a lot of the same frequencies and so become less individually distinguishable....it makes it sound a bit muddy...I didn't mean to be overcritical, It just involves messing around with the eq's slightly. Out of curiosity did you reduce the top end of the bass and increase the bottom? |

Im gonna switch sound systems and have another listen, Im coming to realise just how shit my pc speakers sound. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, just increased the bottom. |
||||||||

It's always tempting to do that, something I always used to do....have a look at this article It talks about subtractive Eq'ing...I've been doing this on my tracks lately and they sound much clearer. Just one aproach tho, I don't want to be telling you how to do things. |

i've just been listening to the orb , the album from 2003. your track fits quite well in the playlist. i like it. the melody and the whole vibe grabbed my attention, so i didn't focus on production really. the track just flew, i think it's good. nothing amazing but just ok. |
||||||||

|
|
so is it good, nothing amazing, or just ok? :P |

sounds like it could've been on eevolute records, in about '91... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
not much to expect while listening to it, but it's still good. |
||||||||
|

does sound very 90's, but good all the same! :) at least you've avoided the "reason" sound. |
