y'all should be proud of me. I uploaded it all by my littl ol' self. not bad for a retard

figure this ones about 75%.

question: Does it sound too "busy"? That seems to be the most common comment I get on my stuff...

(oh, and I know, I know...shameless self promotion. bad influx)

Didn't skip for me. Played fine. Another great track. Drums are excellent with great breaks. I like the vocoder thing and the phat bass or pad that sounds like an oceanliner. Love that. Too busy? I don't think so. There were a couple of spots where the squelchy bass and the oceanliner were maybe stepping on eachother but I listened on headphones and it's not hi fi so I don't know. Anyways, this is sure to be another long thread so I'll have plenty of chances to say more later, and hang some of my tunes off it :P

Excellent Influx, your stuff always has that driving intensity.

great tune...definitely hard. the production quality is really top knotch- i dont think i could differentiate between this and any other "professional" ie released material...excellent. the drums seem to be the most compelling aspect of this tune...so i have to ask, how much experience do you have? you dont use prefabricated loops do you? do you program them all entirely by yourself? if so, congratulations- thats quite an accomplishment i must say...keep it up. cheers...

some loops for filler but mostly programmed. A lot of times Ill use parts, arrange a beat, then run it through FX and resample so I have a whole new loop (like the one in the beginning behind the hard kicks)

this track I used more samples than I normally would, but the main drums are all programmed

thanks for listenin!

I wanted to ask you how you make drums. I imagine it varies from track to track. Always impressed by your drums, both in sound quality and musically with the breaks and all.

good track influx! really good break in the
middle, reminded me of Liam's hovering
breaks/drops he did on the Jilted Album. killer
bassline! it did sound a little busy, but I could
make out the main elements easily... I guess,
too make it less busy, is try to listen to the
tones of the drums closely, and figure out how
to make it sound like one drummer. Anyway,
overall, this is your best track. The sound had
lots of energy, and it kept moving.
