Well after some time, Darkstate is back with some new material... this time its dark'n'funky drum'n'bass!!!
This one'll be on our new project but we liked it enough to get it out early in order to get some feedback...

Got a bit of an EZ Rollers / Kosheen vibe to it IMHO which is no bad thing. Vocal sounds great even at this bit rate; I guess having a decent singer help the mixing/engineering, eh?
I thought the double bass was a bit quiet; I couldnt really hear it on hi-fi speakers but it came through quite nicely on headphones. I also got quite a bit of skipping at around 2.30 - I'm assuming it was my connection, but thought I'd mention it.
Top stuff overall!

The vocalists all sing along to the tracks in the recording sessions themselves.. sometimes these just start out as ideas sessions that evolve into Jam sessions and finally recording ones.. othertimes, we've already got the song written and a specific idea and just get the girl to sing it.. sometimes its the vocalist herself that has the ideas..

my only comment is that everything sounds overly compressed, like you stuck a heavy limiter at -10db treshhold. maybe let it breathe a bit more? or maybe not, this gives it certain weight.
anyway, cool stuff, keep it up.
cheers, M.

Milan, dunno about overly compressed ;) I'm guessing any detail like you're picking up on is prolly an artifact of it being a lo-fi compressed audio stream here at DT... I could be wrong, but there you go...

cool. i play melodic dnb out in bars and such quite often, and this is the kind of track iŽd play with no problem.
cheers, M.

Could throw a copy your way if you think you'd get some play out of it?
