First off, this is by far the best track I've written in the year and a half I've been attempting to produce psy. Everything sounds really tight on my monitors and car stereo. I played it tonight on a club rig for the first time, and while I only got a couple of seconds to get in front of the speakers, I can't quite tell if the production of this track is at the point where it can be played confidently, or if there're still issues that need to be sorted that an objective ear can help me out on. While it sounded playable, there were some things that didn't seem to translate well and I'm not sure if it's an issue with the track itself or just the rig.
I've posted a 3 minute, 320kb/s sample here:

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! |

Haven't been producing very long myself so I can't really give any advice but I really enjoyed that track. It's pretty damn original I'd say...reminds me of metal actually as far as those pad melodies go. Nice work. The layers you've got going seem denser than a lot of the pro tracks I've heard but I don't think that's a bad thing personally. |

Kick seems a bit too loud..
 You believe in the users?
Yeah, sure. If I don't have a user, then who wrote me? |

Kick is at -11db and bass around -15db. With quadrafuzz on the bass, that seems to be the best place for it to sit with the kick. Is the kick too loud in general, or just in relation to the bass? They both sound pretty tight to me. |

Too loud in general. It fits really well with the bass, but I think I would turn it down 2-3dB and maybe notch it a tiny bit around 8-10khz. Don't know if you have a compressor on it either..
Like the track though.

hi
nice music ther...u have the whole south african thing going on...so thats nice...u sound a little like frozen ghost...ur breaks, the crash n certain tunes....nothing bad about it...coz its not an exact copy ....but yea i think if u conentrate on some more complicated tunes with a crazy psy twist ur sorted....on the whole music is good jus a lil too melodic....
production is quite good must say for one n half year......any previous experience with computer music..???
hope ur the next south african artist we'd be stomping to
cheers n all the best |

eerrm...
i hate it when ppl argue and challenge on this forum.... u may have first hand 'frozen ghost experience' since u from s.a... n from the looks of ur myspace with fg as ur second friend im sure u ve heard more of his music than i have...good...were all so happy for u....
pls dont continue with this ridiculas argument... it makes no sense to chemogen n his reason for psting his track.. if u want to tell me more about ur s.a case logic send me a pm....n stick to the topic...
im sorry if ive hurt anybodys feelings by comparing his music to FG....i did it with a complete sense of encouragement to chemogen... anyways i never comment on a new producers track n i think i never will...besides with gurus around u'll dont need it....
