Not feelin it.
Really like the B side - good to see him experimenting. Sounds like a less extrovert Tube Jerk.
i hear Benisch....
sounds like adam found the middle ground between truesoul and code red
and yeah the b side is interesting
just watch, now everything is going to slow down
eh.
I liked it, quite minimal and mellow
I really like it and the last one with Henrik B - The Conversation, Joel Mull has released some similar minimal goodness.
Really feeling this sound atm.
Progressive techno haha, I probably should say that, it might catch on :nono:
shouldnt* :doh:
absolutely love this style
quality
I couldn't have put it better.Quote:

I can see a lot of Beyer fans not liking this material because it's so different, not enough compression, sub bass, monotonus drums for the fans. This kind of stuff is REALLY hot here right now. There's a time and place for this...most Beyer records work well at 1am, this stuff is great for 3 or 4 in the morning.
My favorite part is the people who complain that Beyer is good for nothing but hard techno and he's stuck on his ways. The production quality on here is better than 95% of the stuff spoken about on this forum lately if you look at it from a production standpoint. People blame the guy for not looking to the future, once he does they blame him for doing so. Not all techno is about 140bpm compression, off-beat kick drum patterns, and open hi-hats!
hear ye! hear ye!Quote:

But, suffice it to say, I still love the hard stuff...Quote:

First 2 releases I cant stop playing, and as for this one, its brilliant, one melodi workout which is mesmerising and the other a dark minimal yet heavy workout which I cant stop bopping my head to.
Cant wait to get my hands on it. Great stuff!
I would never have guessed that was beyer but i'm glad i listened to it now, good stuff
big fan of the number 2, but have to say that i also really like this one!
Hmm
Not saying he aint a good producer, thats idiotic.
I am just thinking I miss material like

http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF101614-02-01-06.mp3
I heard he's working on another Truesoul full album.
I miss stuff like 'Crispy Bits' and 'Tasty Bits'.
Ooh no I don't there they are on my shelf :D
I'm impressed with Beyer, he's covers more breadth than I thought.
Both of those were sick! I remember just layering 3 Drumcode records and flip-flopping basslines and how much fun it was...I must say Drumcode records is what taught me how to mix on three.Quote:

:shock:
:crackup:
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Hmm i see your point.. We cannot blame Beyer taking other directions than the Drumcode loop techno. I say congrats to him to try to sound ifferent becasue techno ahs to be renewed these days.Quote:

Production has actually always been a trick to make the kids buy the records in the shops, but it does not affect significatively the quality of a track. Sure it helps it to be more Dj-freidnly and, above all sell-freindly but except some precise records, mastering has never made me not buy a track i like.
IMo his most achieved project stays Ignition Key, and interestingly, the production is not the best point of the album.
On a more "mad eye" styled music, his "17th" ep sounds IMO ten times better than that new EP.
Techno has become production over content as of late.
These tunes are good, but remained in my memory for about 5 minutes.
Instantly forgetable.
I thought these tunes were an average foray for beyer into this type of sound, which is done far better, and with more class and personality, by many others, look to the cadenza label for a start.
Tony fron BOA is the man for this stuff.
yeah this release isnt bad at all actually, pretty phat stuff
A-side isnt bad if there wouldnt be this high-chirping sounds in it.
I honestly dont understand, the material on this release is better than so much of stuff that is recommended on this board. Beyer takes another direction, and a great direction in my opinion and immediately people start coming up with little negatives.
This label has brought something fresh into my ears, great release I say again!
You think? This is definitely in the same league as Cadenza. It kind of plods (like most minimal techno) but the sound is nice, Mad Eye is a good label in my opinion.Quote:

love the track snuff
i just got round to checking it out and i think its fantastic!
reminds me a little of the henrik b manwolf b side
simliar glitchy rythmns but more mellow and tuneful
beyer is a genius
oh piss off before i whack you with my 303 !Quote:

Hehe
honestly haven't heard this new one, but i gotta say my favorite stuff he's done is when he has strayed away from the super compressed drummy stuff. i love my hard tech, but damn i love some creativity too.Quote:

:clap: :clap:
bahaha :lol: :lol:Quote:

I feel this Mad Eye Label as the new insignia of what techno shhoud start to be from now On.
I really enjoy both sides of the conversation, tho I didnt like too much the first release of mad eye, as I think it has a lack of consistency.
Definitively Snuff and Noise is another release, this time even more experimental than the previous ones.
I hope these guys would settle a new way to see techno, cos in my way of looking at things, i think techno stooped being futuristic since several years ago.
