Not bad, although tainted for me by the fact that SAW was a film far too dark and ****ed up to be done justice by techno.
Charlie Clousers soundtrack for the film just csan`t be beat. Pure electronic genius.

This tune could do with something hapening after the break as really, it doesn`t progress.

thank you for havin a listen, but how can anything be to dark for techno?

Anyway cheers. ;)

needs much more of a bassline in there, there's certainly plenty of room for one at the moment sounds very locked groove'y, too loopy and needs more going on

production sound's pretty ok on it, but definately needs more going on

Sounds fine to me. I don't llike techno like this to be cluttered. If you're fast cueing up the next record you can make the most basic tune rock like no other. Definately a perfect tool for for some long mixing and chopping. Stuff like this takes on its own charachter in a mix.

04-07-2005, 06:44 PM
sorry yeah, didn`t really reply properly.
Production wise this is ok.
Sounds a little muddy in the low mid, and overall comes across as a bit dry.
Sounds a little too digital if you get my meaning.
that main riff (the 2 note thing) is a little over done if you go back and look at acid techno releases over the last few years, and something a little more interesting could be done with that sound.
This is a pretty good DJ tool, but seems to lack polish, phatness and width.

I made this track intentionally without a bassline, as the main low end rumble comes from offbeat kick drum patterns etc. There is no locked groove'y in there at all as the track progresses and things drop. I appreciate your view though, but dont entirely agree. Everyone has an idea of how techno should sound and thats cool.

i didnt say there was a locked groove in there, but it sounds far too shallow without more low end in there, favourably in the shape of a bassline... in the nicest possible way please dont go the route of some on here of posting tracks and then just disagreeing with the comments given, just take them on board and say thanks as it will save any unneccesary confusion, obviously we all have a different view of how techno sounds but that doesnt come into it, in the context of the production of this track it definately lacks and has a certain feeling of emptiness about it at the moment

its a good track, just could be better :clap: ;)

I am not saying this track is perfect, and i know there is room for improvement. From what i have read on here though there is alot of negativity in the form of feedback, as opposed to 'positive'. Again i will take your views onboard and will re-post it, put a bassline in it, and try to make it sound less empty. Any suggestions?

plenty of energy in this tune, cant really comment on sound as i've listened to it on shite speakers. Good to see people breaking out the dvd's!! I reckon it needs something to come in after the main break though, something that'll really grab you buy the throat. Liking this though! :clap:

sounds pretty good to me. as has been mentioned it's a little lacking in bass and i'm also not sure about the stabby riff, but it seems like a fairly solid track on the whole...

Scott Kemix
04-07-2005, 07:49 PM
cool, i was gonna leave the mastering to lawrie to phatten up the bass etc. Think i will adjust that stabby riff though, as i thought it was pretty constant. Any suggestions for the riff??? More notes??? or less to make it a bit more minimal

cheers

I`d get as much done as possible before you send it too lawrie to master.
The bass should be sorted before it reaches the vinyl cutting stage as they only make minor tweaks.
Maybe more notes, or something other than that rising 2 note riff that you here too often.
I`d double it up with another warmer sound, as this track over all sounds a bit too dry and soft studio-ey

Scott Kemix
04-07-2005, 08:06 PM
As i said i dont want to add a bassline, just boost the bass freq at the mastering stage to add a nice punch to it. Cool will double up with another riff maybe, though i dont think it sounds soft studio-ey as most the kit i used to produce it was analog stuff.....i.e. outboard effects, and a virus c. Must be the mp3 quality you are hearing.

cheers though ;)

dirty_bass
04-07-2005, 10:04 PM
Could be the mp3. It may be that the sounds are over dry. Dunno. It just sounds a little "cardboard-ey". Hard to explain, but I guess it`s the lack of sinewaves.

i do like this, some nice things going on, but i agree with dirty and eyes, its lacking a few things.
now i can see what your saying, this was how you wanted to make the tune, you could have added a bassline etc if you wanted to, but unfortunately, whats making this a normal bog standard, nothing special tune and not being a great track that people must go out and buy and play is the lack of bassline, the lack of some different riffs here and there, the lack of analogue fluctuating and breathing.

its not negative feedback, its positive, listen to what people are saying and use it to build on.

saw is a great film by the way :cool:

cheers man, i will take everything thats said about the track and move on, though i dont think the lack off bassline could stop the track selling. I have bought load of wicked tunes lately that dont have basslines, that are drum led tracks and these are the ones that do it for me. I agree about the riff thing, maybe a few different pattern switches here and there will help. I dont know what you mean by the lack of analogue fluctuating and breathing, as i did not want to over compress this track to create that effect overall.

nice, yep saw is a great film ;)

dan the acid man
05-07-2005, 11:53 AM
the anologue fluctuating and breathing was more for the synth, it sounds too digital overall, it could do with a few subtle filter movements to make it more anologue sounding

Scott Kemix
05-07-2005, 11:59 AM
ah cool, i tend to use filter type automation/movement on riffs that contain more notes, as opposed to simple stabby riffs. The sound that is used is off a virus c synth, and like most of the samples on there they have alot of warmth and analogue feel to them i think. Will adjust this though to see the desired effect.,

cheers man

this is olid.

in regards to what eyes & bass say, i like trax like this to have space to let another track right over the top straight away..

the fact there is little bassline means when you mix a track with big bass & drop it, the impact will kill...



Good Work Kemix :clap: :clap: :clap:

if i was still playing vinyl & techno, i'd have 2 copies of this.

love the triplet breaks

I don`t agree with making life easy for DJ`s.
It`s easy enough as it is to mix 2 tunes of similar tempo together that go BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM so they know where the beat is. So why make it easier?
Instead of making a good complete tune, why leave it up to them to make it out of other tunes?
I say kill the DJ`s and long live the musicians :twisted:

not taking it to heart at all, to be honest i dont care what you do to the track as its not mine but when u put it up for people to check, instead of trying to counter any seemingly negative comments with justifications for the comments i.e i made it without a bassline etc etc just say cool and thanks for listening... or better still explain ur intentions when u post say "this is a dj tool and therefore doesnt have such and such so all comments on the production side of things wud be apreciated still"

the best Dj tools ive found still have very noticable, effective basslines in them, be it a 1 bar or 2 bar loop, but still a very chunky, sizeable bassline in there, and to me your track doesnt sound much like a tool imo, it just sounds like a track thats lacking a bassline as the rest of the mix doesnt fill enough of the spectrum to compensate for this

right anyone for a brew always calms us down haha ;)

again, thats jus my opinion. ive always made music for me & no one else.



i was once offered a deal if i toned my work down & mafe it more accessible. i could have, but whats the point ?

i have also knocked back a deal cos the label was gonna hard house it up with remixes. i have no interest in that field of music, so i walked away.

right. serious this time..


i do like this. its raw & uncluttered. this is the type of thing i love djing with. real fantic mixing with lots of fx & cuts & movement.

though i totaly see eyes & db's point. this is to do with their preference of musicality over percussion i guess.

a lot of the criticism ive had towards my work is about the structure, but thats because i'm from the school of quick mixing & i used to play techno that can be mixed at any point. i dont like leaving a record dry for longer than 4 bars, then i HAVE to be back in the mix. and i make trax that suit this..

its just different styles.

and i really dig the no bassline thing. excellent tool. droppin a real bass heavy Amok track after that would destroy a dancefloor.

but you have to know when to drop it ;)


would this be a good place to possibly swap sample files for each others trax & see who changes what how ?

Well yeah, I was jokin, DJ`s don`t need to die, but my concerns are more with music, than with what goes on within the confines of the DJ booth.
I tend to think that a good DJ can play anything and make it work, and doesn`t need to be pandered to.
The music I make is for me, but hopefully people will enjoy dancing to the dancefloor stuff.

as for the ongoing saga about dj tools. I think people take things far too seriously, end the end of the day techno is a scene where a dj plays tunes to a club full of up for it people who are out to have a good time and dance. its not that complicated really is it?

some people on here seem to totally loose that idea and think its something else. if you are one of those people i suggest you go out and maybe have some fun for a change and take a break and understand what its all about again.

True.
But Running the same loop for 6 mins is a waste of vinyl
HAs no one heard of loop grooves
If your gonna be lazy with your production at least fill your vinyl with loads of loops rather than one that last for ages, that`s just a rip off.

That would make DJ'ing really boring as you'd have not time constraints. There'd be little challenge for the DJ or excitement for the crowd as there very little that can go wrong using groovelocks.

Yes there is, there is no difference to using a locked groove, you still need to mix and keep it in.
Obviously you don`t do rapid mixing pete, otherwise you`d know what you can do with a piece of vinyl full of locked grooves.
Crowd excitement, erm, your showing your ignorance pete. With 3 decks and a bunch of locked grooves, you can go mental.
If your only gonna play short bursts of music, do it properly and learn to DJ properly, if you need a looped tune to run for 5 mins before you can mix then you are a bad DJ and shouldn`t be playing tools.

we might as well all go and play some nicely produced trance tracks then.

to me the appeal of playing techno is all about being able to play 'dj tools' and not have to just be a juke box and play tune after tune.

any daft cunt can do that..

I can mix tools in my sleep, there`s little challenge.


oooooo get you :lol:



i prefer to take 2 or 3 records, a good mixer and fx (maybe also a MC303) and then MAKE something happen.

if u play tunes & let them happen for thmeselves, thats fine. i prefer to make my own thing happen as opposed to jus repeating what others have already done.

u many be able to mix tools in your sleep, but can u make anything happen with them ?


an old pal of mine used to be able to pitch perfect. he was ace with house, but he couldnt mix techno loops for shit. jus no concept of cutting & tricking.

i can slice hard techno with the best in the world, but can i deal with deep minimil tracks where u have to know when to let it run ? no.






either way, this track, imo, hits the spot & is exactly what i used to look for in vinyl.

if i want musicallity, i'll go listen to John Martyn or The bEatles :lol:

we might as well all go and play some nicely produced trance tracks then.

to me the appeal of playing techno is all about being able to play 'dj tools' and not have to just be a juke box and play tune after tune.

any daft cunt can do that..


love dj tools me. its what you do with em that counts. personally i love boring, mundane loops :lol: repetitive doesnt really mean boring.

ps,,,wasnt a dig at you dan.

yes it was, you old git :lol: you aint fooling me :cry: :lol:

no, i dont take anything to heart on here

Thats techno for yer

There`s a whole world of techno out there.


and that world would be that bit smaller if dj fodder didn't exist.

True.
But Running the same loop for 6 mins is a waste of vinyl
HAs no one heard of loop grooves
If your gonna be lazy with your production at least fill your vinyl with loads of loops rather than one that last for ages, that`s just a rip off.

Dont know where you are comin from with this, again its your opinion

Maybe because people are getting complacent and not adding enough changes and detail to their tracks. It`s easy enough to just do a bisic sequence and say, ah, that`ll do.

if it bothers you that much then refer me to my posts where ive put that and il be happy to re-evaluate it, but ive put it for a reason, so expect only the same reply... i dont make comments for the good of my health, and if u rather id put each time that everything is perfect than that i shall do, and the producer can live in blissful ignorance ;)

No thats not the point, there is no such thing as a perfect track, nobody on here has a perfect track. The feedback is taken into concideration, wisely, but it is the way you present it, that some people have a problem with.......obviously. :rambo:

This is true, perfection is a quest.
however we have gone waaaay beyond talking about your track here scot, well, I have anyway.
Sorry, I did try to get people to come back on topic.

no one mentioned tracks having to be perfect, i cant produce perfect tracks myself, but there are varying levels of quality leading up to near perfection... if people cant take criticism on tracks then they really should not post them, its that simple... even if they are in their studio and honestly believe they have the best track in town it doesnt mean it is, this applies to everyone... ;)

Hey, i said earlier in the post i took your comments into concideration and have no problems with that. You say you dont produce tracks? So why dont you use this time and give it a shot?

where did i say i dont produce tracks then? read the post again smart alec, ive got several releases lined up ;)

it wasnt a dig at u, i meant in general people shouldnt post if they cant take criticism, there's nothing more annoying than someone trying to justify their work instead of just accepting that not everyone will love it, heck ive had good close friends say some tracks are dung, water off a ducks back and you have to develop a certain immunity to negative comments if you want to make a serious go of things, otherwise you end up spitting the dummie and making excuses when not everyone loves the work

Miss-read what u said. :oops: Not had one prob with what you have said, just did'nt agree, and that is where the problems lies i think. Lets try and get back on track though seriously as x said. But dont think there is much more to say is there...hehhhehheeh
