it's been a while since i put any music out there
I made this!
i think this needs a bit more work, and the mix might be a bit off due to shitty headphones on my laptop, but any feedback whastoever is massively appreciated at this stage, as i'd like to finish this by the end o the weekend.
for those needing more description, it's a whack of fat breaks in your face. oh, and robert frost, because it felt a bit relevant, and filled an otherwise embarassing void.

The mix is flawless - and i'm a bass player so my timing is good.
did you make the breaks?
i would lose the voice-over though - a bit nineties.
overall i liked it :)

all breaks are sampled, as i am generally not half as talented as i would like.
point taken about the voiceover. have had coldcut 'journeys by dj' on the ipod for a bit too long i guess.

Win!
I like it!
Mixwise, the phasered guitar stabs are riding too high in the mix. And moar kick please.
The only thing it's missing for me is a funktastic bassline, but that's because I am a seriously cheesy bastard.
What tools are you using?

i'm a real primitive, so it's actually nothing more than cooledit and fruityloops. a lack of input devices has hampered the bassline addition so far, but i'll just have to dig extra hard through the crates i guess.

look here mate
let's not be calling FL Studio primitive, alright? It kicks Cubase and Reason right through the wall. In fact, the only thing I use Cubase for is when I'm writing classical music to picture, as the timewarp function is priceless.
Never thee mind about a live base. In FL studio, pop open a 3xOSC and mute the bottom two oscillators. Then set the remaining oscillator to a saw wave.
That would be a nice scratchy funky sound to use for a bassline.

its tight and clean...
but tbh i nearly lol'd at the very first drum bit with the cymbals? whats that all about?
as stated above it needs a bassline, and i add that it also needs to go somewhere... seems like blindly floating in a pool of black water lookin for a light but you know you aint gonna find it till it burns you in the face.

all the drums come from jimmy smith's 'slow down sagg', which is also the source of the cymbals.
