I've been working a lot on new tracks for the upcoming Xamanist album.
Meanwhile, I've uploaded a long preview of a new track, soon to be released on an Ektoplazm VA.
Please listen and tell me what you think!

This is good, maybe a bit more work on the mix . I like it though it could use some more variation or more energy, deliver and take, and then deliver even more energy..if that makes any sense to you
Thanks mica for the review! I understand your point
In this one things build up slower, and really pace up after the break. The track has 9 minutes, so expect more energy and faster moves towards the end Sérgio Xamanist

Yeah I did notice that too! it was progressing! , but maybe what I mean has more too do with smaller nuances of change development and surprise sounds sprinkled along the track and not so much its general arrangement. Sorry this is not easy too express

I understand you points, thanks for the feedback! Indeed this track is not so in your face and has not such variety in sounds has my previous ones... It's a lot more smooth and flows quieter indeed.
That's because it was the first track I made with my current setup, that is, mixing every sound live with a midi controller and creating the whole track this way.
I use this method now for creating the track and performing live.
My aim is to have fun and give people a more live experience. I also want to strip the track to it's really good sounds, instead of overproducing it.
I think this one, as it was the first, got more stripped In the next ones I think I have done it better, with more experience in this way of doing it
Thanks for the melodic comment, I sure focus a lot on the melodies and harmonies!

i like it, maybe u can work more on some bass progression in the first part, make small small bass note changes here and there, to give some extra bounce and create more flow there,,, and some more solid percussion owrk should do the trick,, the second part, has definately more movement in the bass, but it comes unexpectedly,, maybe u should build it up , otherwise nice sound, and some good flowz, pls clean the mix , to make the sounds come out cleaner, keep up the good work mate, and good lcuk with ur release!
