i often get the comment i am always to modest but i guess this could end up on some of your desks (when it's finished and i have taken in consideration all your remarks)...if i'm mistaken please tell me so - i can handle criticism as long if it's constructive. it is not so original but to me it sounds good and maybe for the first time...shaking ass! btw: this is my 50th track on ebel so i got something to celebrate!! please comment this is not the final version bassline, filtered synths, flutes and percussion are no preset loops. There's one existing drumloop hidden in the rythm section but i changed it (wave editing) too much to call it a presetloop. (if this should belong into techno section please tell me) edit: read the comments to see what i changed to this version (v0.9)
Ha, already a lot better, if only for the fact that the annoying flute has been put with the garbage :-). Give my rather negative first review, of course I wasn't expecting that this second version all of a sudden would've become a masterpiece. It's still too generic and hollow, but at least you've brought in some elements of your own, though of course the whole track still reeks of the spirit of a 'mustard shopper'. But this 2nd version should already provide you with a good basis to build upon for future house tracks. So buckle up and get it going, Sir! :D Oh, and, happy birthday!
sorry Rabauw - i honestly do not understand what you mean by a mustard shopper. If it means it sounds like music that could be made by anyone... it's what i interpret it for. If it's something else, could you please "define" a little? Thanks for commenting anyway - goes for everyone of you in fact! Thanks!!! Please remark i never ever listen to house music myself (except for some artists mentioned on my ebel homepage - but that's no house. And there you got it right, Rabauw... it's house made by someone who's got some very narrowminded and restricted ideas by how it should sound like.
here it is,in short; i agree with rabouw(lol,nice comment) and who to argue with the wizard >mr funky; make the bazeline with a portamento 1;you should be able to give it more shake,with the lenghts of that bazeline,so its more latin; the flute,sucks,hmmmm,notes,pitchcorrection can be better; and sorry about the harsh mail,geus it aint a excuse that i mension,that just today the belgiumweather,made my medical instabilety unbareable,along with some e-bel issues; sorry & greetz
Like the overal improvements you've mad! Something bothered me at the ending of minut 4... Something's wrong there, no? Or is this ment to be? Sounds somewhat offbeat... That bassline creates a special groove indeed, that goes very wel with those chords/pad... Keep going reaman! And allready a happy B-day man & best wishes and all that... Grtz
ok..here it is... dropped the flutes.. maybe rabauw was right added some elements, changed the portamento of the bassline (cestqui), made the intro shorter (GBS) ) - you we're right there too) and added some more variation (funky) the new version should be available very soon (still have to upload it) any, tomorrow's my birthday so this one's for you all and especially to Zark and all those who support me and like my music. You give me so much pleasure in life... you just can't imagine. Erik
Really nice overall groove to it! I like them deep synths!! ANd what Rabauw says bout the flute...I can follow... It felt kinda weird... But the the flute on itself didn't disturb me at all...more the melo's.... I have the feeling their should be more variations to it to make it even more attractive! I guess that's also one of the reasons why my latest house track isn't that liked... Anyhow.. I really dig your versatility! And you have some good ideas! Keep 'em comming! Grtz
eh i'll skip any mastering/composition remarks, just wanna say that the track is pretty amusing to listen ;) the sounds at the end are nice and give the track a fresh touch, work it out!
Okay first up, that's a highly inventive bassline. To me this would definitely belong to the house section. The first part however is a bit generic, always the same filtered synths popping in and out. But my man, do something about that flute. That's just horrible!!! Maybe it ain't clean enough, or put some more reverb to it, but I would definitely not use that flute in there. It's all to easy to understand where you got the idea from, and how you've interpreted house as a genre so far. In the light of that, your mission has failed. The way I interpret the feeling of this track is, that you've limited yourself to what you've understood so far is "typical" for house. This will never do any good to one's creativity and musical development. I know you usually make music that comes from your own ideas and your heart.... Don't let yourself be restricted by vague, borderline definitions from other entities. Same thing happened 2000 years ago and look where it brought us today... Listen to yourself, and you'll make a house tune that's a lot better and diverse. A plus for your original bassline though. EDIT: btw I remembered this from your profile... "When everything moves the same way, nothing really moves apparently." Keep it in mind for your next house track.
damn, the part with only percussion (around fourforty) doesn't sound like i would like it. It sounded otherwise through my headz.
nice comment can live with that
