Hi, cons: the production quality is poor (do u have sound editor with plugins, get one!.. but still I doupt that it would help u need some better-soundig kit, I'm sorry but its all rather lifeless, the sounds r cheesy and very week, everything even the filter sweep r poor, and the song doesn't go anywhere nor does it have any content or reason .. its just well plays ..

pros:u have a lot of room to grow

..

sorry don't mean to be offencive, but i hope u can at least value my honesty ..

I'll listen tomorrow Ghost. Don't listen to 8life8. He's probably not a Steeler's fan anyway

yes, it can be a tough cross to bear, especially lately due to some poor draft choices, and the loss of some great free agents in the last few years....

it's hard to explain to other people the huge impact of sports in this town (Pittsburgh)......
let's just say that sports is pretty important....

for this one, I was going for a more dancefloor stylee... fewer elements for greater impact on the floor....

please listen to hi-fi or download...
thanks

ok sorry that was too cold of me, (and yhea I don't like square dnb, I can't stand it actully (might be a big part of the feedback) I loved/grew up on the oldskool jungel though .. anyway I was haveing a terrible day and listening at low volume (it was lait) .. sorry.. lets try this agian and I'll try to b more helpful this time.. ok to start with u gotta replace that chessy stapp (mc303?, try to get a cheap SyntH that can replace it and run the snare and kick through a compressor to get it more tight and puncy (it would seriuslu help the beat, as the snare and kick drive the beat along with the bassline (wich is actually Cool, but just has a awul sound) at 50 sec there is a small one bar break and after that u roll in the same pattern (big NoNo)that kills it! makes it flat and longwinded.. (add something that is very noticable and gives it a push (16th/note/ryde?Hat) but u just adda xtra hit (that doesn't sound to good and doesn't do anything for the grove).. 1:27 it mixes up a bit (actually nice unmuting and nice how u break it into the next pattern, and in comes xtra rolling snare (or hell is that a hhat) it's good though and adds to the beat(I like the vocal by the way they have a great basement sound!, 2:15 it changes up a bit and goes into a break down, that bass is way too weak and really has a plastk agresiveness to it, (to fake) at 246 my systems fucks up and a error accurse.. I tried the hi-fi version but my system wouldn't do it .. ok I'll try agian.. so after the bearkdown we get the same pattern again (u need more spice) the bassline has a nice filter swweep ( the weap is good but it has a very weak filter so it doesn't sound too good) , there's a xtras synth string that comes itno later on (most likely the peak of the track (so yhea the arrangemnt is there just too flat and repeatatif, where r the the straight Hhat's? u r out missing out big by not haveing them .. anyway a system error again .. I hope u take some of my thought into consideration, u have a track but it needs work .. again sorry for being an total ass .. and yhea I dig the logo!

I think it's fine just the way it is....... everything is where it should be. but I wrote it, so I'm biased....

I wasn't looking for analysis/criticism, but thanks for the input....

see, I'll just keep rolling these spliffs, and you all can just keep smoking... dig?

I hope you all like the site's pictures. I figure they will give you something to do while you listen.....

8life8 if the beat is hardcore going straight back into it isn't only the best choice it's the only choice. kind of like listening to this track.

should have been in on this one ghost.

good God....

it's Andre the Giant resurrected in blunt form.... you know, that happens more than people think.

last year, I smoked my dog from my childhood. he was a good dog, and proved it once again.

i gotta be honest though.. i liked the track a lot more last week when i thought it was saying "damn.. took a blast" and the bass was all mario bros. "game over" stylee and you are dying.

but i had this cool vision of the big thug boss, who is actually a giant pigeon, except with a pigeon/space hopper body and no wings.. big gray rubbery blob guy, little pigeon head.

I like the track. Think it's very well done. Tight and the choice of sounds work well together. Nice track. Someplace around 2 minutes there's a lead where you use a modwheel I think very slightly to bring the last note in the phrased up. Nice touch. I hear the modwheel more on that lead too at places. I think it's a great track.

thanks xoxos, sitar and influx and everyone else...

I like when people talk about my efforts, good or bad.....it's just that I have to keep moving.

I'm very aware of my limitations..... that's why I have to keep moving.

Mr. N, it was very satisfying. I recommend you get started immediately, as it can take years for the dog to pass on. Seek out "Animal Friends", or your local "no-kill" shelter. Unforunately, the pole I used now smells of smoke, and now I'm afraid to put it back in front of the building.
