    Default Hard grinding Techno - ''Destruct Your System''

    Been a while since I've put any tracks on here for you aural (dis?!)pleasure.

    Bit different to my normal style this on, more loopy. Any comments welcome, thinking of changing it a little, any ideas?

    only a 128k mp3 I'm afraid. :(

    Harsh.

    I like a bit of grind now and again, but I found this too dry and too digital.
    I think I fuller use of the spectrum and maybe some deeper bass, and some warmth somewhere in the mix to gel things together would help this a lot.

    The main gong like sound is too dry, and could do with some reverb maybe.

    I think overall this needs a lot of processing on the individual sounds to give it polish and interest.
    Maybe some subtle flanged reverb on some of the sounds, and other subtle effects to make them swim around a little would be great.
    It`s very easy to just settle with distortion and bit crushing when going for a "harder" sound, but good processing and ambient dynamics help any tune.
    Lots of interesting edits also would help with this style of tune.
    Solitary by nature.
    Isolation is the gift.
    Does anyone have courage to stand apart any more?

    I shall have a fiddle. And then play about with the tune.

    When I mixed it down I did cut a lot of bass, thought it was too bass heavy... ears must not have been working too hot that day!

    cheers for listening, any more for anymore?

    Yeah I just think some of the stuff is crushed a bit too much, but I do enjoy the track. Has a nice drive to it. Can't really comment on the mixdown cause I'm just in the phones, but it's clear and loud just how I like it.
