Feedback much appreciated (18c)

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.

[Scott Kemix]

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

Anyway cheers. ;)

Cos techno isn`t dark. Well not conventional techno anyway.

[Scott Kemix]

nice 1 pete, really enjoyed makin this one. Was a bit sceptical about posting tracks here but am glad i did now.

cheers ;)

is this going on vinyl? I wannit!

[eyes without a face]

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

[AcidTrash]

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.

he asked

[dirty_bass]

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.

oops sorry that was me, forgot to log in

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?

[fresh_an_funky_design]

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...
